>>255731>but at least she was cleaning it in the pic you posted.And? She let the filth build up to a disgusting level. I'm by no means an expert on chicken sacrifice etiquette but I'd assume most people clean up after every kill? Or at least not let the blood rot in their closet for months on end?

Also, she really needs a good manager/assistant because her mental issues really show through her social media. Not just the crazy meltdowns (chicken incident, calling other stars all kinds of slurs etc.), but also manic phases that include excessive self-confidence, sleazing up to other famous ppl or visiting events without pants.
I also hate her opportunism. First, she slanders people and then she tries to beguile them. When she tried to get Nicki to collab with her I was sooo embarrassed! Like, who do you think you are?

Also, this might just be my ED talking, but she's been kind of bad-bodied for a while. It's like she has no waist, she only looks right when she's super skinny. The breast implants did her no favors (and the nipples in the Anna Wintour video looked about ready to poke someone's eyes out).

Grown ass adults who say things like pic related are so embarrassing. Also, I think Disney/Disney World obsession as an adult is kind of cringey, too. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with liking it or going to parks, but I know single/childless people in their late 20’s-early 30’s who spend thousands on Disney vacations multiple times a year. Maybe it’s just not my cup of tea so I can’t see the appeal.

Juniors sizes are pointless and just make finding your size even more chaotic than it already is. Women don't work like that. If you're no longer pubescent and able to wear childrens clothing, then there's a regular women's size for you. If you're small you can do 00 or womens petite and if you're not small you can DEFINITELY do a regular womens size. Or am I missing something?
I'm not talking about calling a section of a store juniors because it's marketed at younger girls, but the sizing. I see that there's an explanation in pic related but it still seems redundant. Why not just make petites?

It's getting discouraging for me to walk everyday for exercise because my feet blisters are so bad. Fortunately the super painful toe blisters I got a few weeks ago have finally callused over, but now I'm developing this giant blister on the paddings of both feet.
I've tried bandaging, wearing good socks and shoes that breathe. I want to walk and could do so for many miles but I usually have to quit after 3-4 because my feet can't bear it. I'm doing so good with my weight loss but stupid shit like this holds me back from better progress. I'm really fed up.

>>255912Have you got hydrocolloid bandaids? They're great for blisters. But the most important thing is to give your damn feet a break. I had non stop blisters for month from breaking in skates, and it was because I insisted on wearing them without letting them heal first.
Otherwise, just consider another form of exercise. I don't know why you'd cling to walking if it's so painful, try swimming or cycling. Or just focus on eating less, if you're fat you can accomplish the vast majority of your weight loss with diet alone.

Also I don't have access to a bike or pool. I'm eating well below my deficit but I see the best, quickest results when I'm exercising a lot. Weight loss with only diet is frustratingly slow, and doesn't help me build muscle. The walking is to condition for a trip in a few months where I'll be doing a lot of walking.

I don't really understand people who are openly racist, but like things made by the races they hate.
Like, "white supremacist rock" like Skrewdriver is kind of silly, considering African-American people pioneered rock music. Shouldn't they actually despise that genre of music as an "aberration" and play lute music instead?
A softer example is 20-somethings who live and breathe /pol/ and constantly reeee about hating black people, but listen to Lil Peep, use "nigga" as a term for "dude" and other black slang, etc and black people who complain about white people on Twitter and Tumblr all day, even though both sites were made by white people.
We wouldn't even have most modern technological advancements if it wasn't for cultural crossover. Like, have fun getting shocked by shitty pacemakers, not having blood banks, purposely using unsafe open heart surgery methods, abstaining from coffee, not using certain types of fabric, abandoning all use of paper, mathematics, electricity and computers altogether because it was all made under ~*multicultural*~ circumstances, by people you don't like.

and like u said, her exes do the same to her (harry styles "two ghosts", john mayer "paper dolls", jonas brothers "much better") and i don't think they're anything wrong with it, they're expressing their emotions like writers do. she gets so much shit for writing songs about people when so many artists do it too and i don't see why it's only bad when she does it.

I really don't understand girls who cry on here about how men objectify them and think men see them as nothing more than a pretty face and pair of titties only to rip on some slightly above or below average cow for having nasolabial folds, 'aging like milk' and being fat despite crying about the same thing themselves or laughing at girls for being ugly and daring to exist and want the same things pretty girls do. Like, what else are they supposed to do, kill themselves just because they aren't beautiful loli princesses who are 28 but look 14 like everyone on this site claims to be?
That's my unpopular opinion - a lot of farmers are incredibly vain and obsessed with their looks, many seem to isolate themselves and dump their friends at the drop of a hat because they're "toxic" when it's usually for some petty reason, usually because they expect people to talk to them first and cater to their sensitive personalities and laundry list of mental issues without them having to do anything or return the favor. Then they come on here and cry about being lonely and fat. Which makes them no better than any given cow on the website, and I feel bad for the bfs of anons who complain about being bipolar or having concerning amounts of self-esteem issues and emotionally dumping on their overly supportive SOs. Getting triggered about random things other anons say and having a million slapfights in /ot/ per day because your feelings got hurt that someone said they don't like cats on the internet only makes it more obvious.

How do you know for a fact someone here who objectifies to how men treat women are the ones picking on Dakota for nasolabial folds?
How do you know for a fact that the anons who talk about their weight issues here are the same ones shitposting about Moo being fat?
The simple answer is that you don't and it's a huge leap in logic to even presume the majority of people who post on /pt/ and /snow/ even post on this board.
And maybe anons who post about their personal problems here do so not because they're secretly putting on blast every cow, but because this is one of the few anonymous chan boards that exist where women can actually talk about their problems.
Although I agree that the slapfights in general ought to stop solely for the fact that it's a waste of time.

It’s probably not “healthy” but it’s definitely better than watching daytime tv, feeling like life is pointless and I can no longer enjoy anything anymore.
>>256300I’m still a low key weeb and I wish I had IRL/online friends to weeb over stuff with like I did in high school, but things change and anime/weebshit becoming mainstream threw me out of the “You only like it because it’s weird/different!” crowd and grouped under “You only like it because it’s mainstream!”, so it’s like I’m “stuck” with my old, boring weeb hobbies while my “friends” are trying to become famous musicians so they can finally start living their ~real lives~ when they’re ~rich and famous~.

It blew up because it was seen as different, but that's just because of the hip hop element and diverse cast. That doesn't reflect on the actual quality of the material. I mean, its not terrible. Its entertaining and nice to listen to. But its not the revolutionary piece of theater everyone makes it out to be. Overall the songs are pretty good, but some lines are just jarring and out of place.
Lines like
>You’re an orphan. Of course! I’m an orphan
>God, I wish there was a war!
>Then we could prove that we’re worth more
>Than anyone bargained for…
>If you stand for nothing, Burr, what’ll you fall for?
>With every word, I drop knowledge!
>I’m a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal
>When I fight, I make the other side panicky
>Let’s hatch a plot blacker than the kettle callin’ the pot…
>Why should a tiny island across the sea regulate the price of tea?
>The feeling of freedom, of seein’ the light
>It’s Ben Franklin with a key and a kite! You see it, right?
>Well, hate the sin, love the sinner
Just eye roll worthy lines that needed to be edited out.
So much of it is just blatantly wrong like this line
>My father has no sons so I’m the one
When Angelica had a dozen other siblings.
And Miranda's response is
>I actually forgot that Phillip had 15 children. But I think that my brain wanted me to forget because it’s stronger dramatically if societally she can’t marry you. And in reality, she was married when they met
>To me, it’s extremely effective to see the courtship from Eliza’s perspective, then rewind the whole thing and then tell it again. Angelica, while she and Hamilton are soul mates, she reads him in a second and knows she can’t marry him so she lets her sister marry him to keep him in her life. I definitely had to take a dramatic license.
Uhm what. How do you "forget" that one of your main plots is totally off. All for the cheesy love triangle that was totally unnecessary yet got multiple songs (okay
songs, but still).
tl;dr I don't think Hamilton is the greatest shit to exist and its highly overrated
No. 256310
>>256304I agree with a lot of her points (femininity is attacked and diminished, female characters are flat and undeveloped, women are only considered "strong" characters when they're physically strong, etc).
Its funny to me that men in the comments make a video about women back to being about men. I didn't see how the video says anything about "anti-male," its more talking about anti-femininity.

How many of those movies are from the past decade? Not many.

Twenty films spanning from sixties to today is not compelling evidence.
Also here is an opinion piece on why "strong female lead" or other terms similar are actually pretty reductive

>They're common adjectives used to describe characters who lack depth, development, focus, etc. I think you need to read more about this subject.well duh, a lot of them focus on the sex appeal, even then modern movies don't focus much on characters at all
>>256313>Twenty films spanning from sixties to today is not compelling evidence. okay then name me movies where women have to be physically strong to be strong, in fact movies where women are physically strong are often portrayed as mean scary dykes
>Also that's a feminist site, which as you yourself point out, is not the mainstream. which only further proves my point that the big bad feminists don't want to remove womens femininity, the point was the movies, not where it came from, the movies still exist whether this site is popular or not, my point was that most movies and media still have strong female characters without them being physically strong
and I agree with the article, but why even post it? do you even know what we are discussing?
No. 256315
>>256304How is having the "badass" woman any more ridiculous than the "badass" man?
How many men in real life, in spite of their superior physical biology like she claims, are anything like most fictional men?
I don't really like it when people make blanket statements about biology for that reason because it supposes FICTIONAL female characters are any more absurd than fictional male characters.
Not that I disagree that the "badass" woman trope is overdone. I'm actually impressed that she mentioned The Golden Compass because that's one of the first female characters that popped into my head when I thought of strong women that weren't necessarily physically strong. I do think writers and media could do a better job of creating women who are strong in other aspects.
It's not weak to be feminine, but I don't see why that means masculine women can't exist or that their physical strength can't be empowering. Or that because strong females exist that it means the male characters are de-masculinized or made dumber for it.

But her general ideas aren’t invalid just because the commenters went all “male tears” and she doesn’t understand feminism. The core concept of her complaint is valid.

No. 256320
>>256316People reacted to her video in that way because that's exactly the framework and argument she sets up.
She thinks women written as physically strong is unrealistic (and a tenant of feminism), ergo that emasculates men because it's showing that women are stronger than them when she claims that is never biologically true.
The comments are unsurprising because she's making men the victims. That's exactly her point.

>>256300How the hell do you think weebs are having more fun?
I have one friend who I like to talk about my weeb/fujoshit with. I'd like to think that we are both fairly normal. Before that I used to talk about my weeb/fujoshit with my ex and he liked it. My most recent boyfriend wasn't into fujoshit at all and it's a pretty big reason for why I broke up.
No. 256336
>>256329Nah. He didn't seem to understand my fujo tendencies at all. For example, the day we broke up, I was talking about Hannibal and he said there was nothing gay about the show. I then said I loved TV shows with a lot of sexual tension, and he suggested Mad Men even though I was clearly talking about TV shows that had gay sexual tension. I was also watching Devilman Crybaby and he had no idea what I was talking about when I said a male character was jealous of the MC's interest in his girlfriend.
He also had this weird defensiveness about his masculinity that was a huge turnoff.
My bf before that was a lot more into it. I called him and his best friend Kaworu and Shinji, and he was chill about it. He was way more ok with me joking about him being gay in general. I feel like a boyfriend who is ok with anything less is a waste of time.

I really need to pack for the music festival I'm volunteering at for the next week. I'm supposed to leave in like three hours but I've barely done anything ugh. When I first went to this festival I spent what felt like an entire month getting ready but I can't be bothered now.
>>256356My friends literally don't care. Why does it bother you?
>>256365Would it be better if I shipped adults? lol I just got into shipping South Park characters this last year too.
Anyways here's some other bitchy reasons as to why I broke up with my bf besides the fujo shit:
>Identified way too much with his European heritageHis dad was from Europe and it was weird to me how much he identified with it. Don't get me wrong, my parents are immigrants too and I am not ashamed of my ethnicity at all. But he identified more with his heritage than I did with my ethnicity. I spent a lot of time in my family's origin country when I was growing up, I lived there for two months on my own, and my family knew a lot of other immigrant families from that country growing up. On the other hand, he had never been to his dad's home country and had only taken a few language lessons. It was weird.
>Cultural differencesI'm from a pretty boring rich white suburb of a southern state and he was from the middle of nowhere of another southern state. I thought it was cute at first, but he ended up being more traditional than I thought. It just felt like we had a difficult time talking due to our backgrounds. Weirdly enough I had dated someone else also from a rural southern town and an international student and I never felt a cultural disconnect at all.
>Lack of empathyNothing of note happened while we were dating, but I felt like if things ever went badly for me, I would never be able to talk to him about it. I had problems coming to him to talk about minor problems I had. He said to me that "empathy is an illusion".
>Calling me unambitiousI had to take a couple of years off of school due to being sick, so I was older than him and still in undergrad even though he had completed a masters degree already. (It is in the humanities and not one really that would help in the job market though.) Now he's on his way to a PhD in the same field. Apparently, he didn't like my apparent lack of direction in life even though I had scored a solid internship for this summer. I think it's easy to say you have a certain direction in life when you are in academia/medicine/law vs other fields where people are more likely to bounce around jobs. I think he can get a tenure-track position someday in his competitive field but I just don't see the appeal of bouncing around temporary job to temporary job filling out 200 applications each time your current position ends.
Overall I don't really think he is a bad guy. Maybe boring. I think it would be fine to date him as long as you never experience any major problems in your life unless you want to be told to do something about it and stop feeling sorry about yourself.
No. 256421
>>256259>>256266I'm what some would consider a mommy gf. Maybe I'm biased but daddy relationships are much more gross than mommy gf relationships.
A mommy gf relationship is about the man going against gender norms and giving up control to the woman. The woman uses that opportunity to show how much she appreciates her boyfriend by being super nice to him. It's a "gentle femdom" thing, super vanilla.
On the other hand, daddy type relationships often have fucked up foundations. It's about pushing gender norms to the extreme, which often leads to abuse of the submissive woman by an older controlling man. There's also the fucked up BDSM aspect with things like Daddy Dom Little Girl.
In general a relationship where a man gives up control to the woman is much more balanced than a relationship where a woman becomes extra submissive to the man.
No. 256442
>>256421>A mommy gf relationship is about the man going against gender norms and giving up control to the woman. Isn’t it reinforcing gender roles of the motherly caretaker?
I don’t care about either group because I think people can do what they want as long as it doesn’t go too far (roleplaying pedophilia, etc). But I also don’t think either is more progressive than the other. They’re two sides of the same coin. One is about male dominance, the other about female nurturing.
No. 256446

And tbh she's just as overweight because they eat junk and she's probably hungry all the time because they eat a lot of carb.
My uncle will go on and on about how meat is the devil because of the 'processing,' but they'll have no problem with horking down a mac and cheese casserole.

The stigma against bariatric is so unfounded for the minor procedures like lap band. That one is completely reversible.
I can see why people would want to gastric bypass a teen though, that surgery has a lot more complications and long-term consequences.

>>256447>helicopter their kid's diets to the point where they can't have certain things are weird and aren't doing their kids a favor by not teaching them about a phrase called "moderation." Yeah I agree for the most part. But we weren’t allowed soda or sugary fruit juices in the house. We were allowed them when we went out to eat for special occasions, and if we got takeout my brother and I could split a bottle or can. Considering how many children are obese these days, I’m glad my mum didn’t stock the house with shit, especially drinks which are so easy to guzzle. My parents were both also vegetarian but fed us kids meat (they’d go out of their way to make two meals). They also fed us vegetarian meals and “fake” meat, so we had exposure. Now I’m an adult, I’ve chosen to be vegetarian for myself and I know how easy it can be, but my brother decided not to. I think the way my parents did it is the right way tbh. Restriction but not so much to give a complex, and an introduction to the food they ate but not an enforcement.
Considering again how unhealthy a lot of kids are today, restriction and moderation are clearly missing. I get that helicopter parents seem weirder, but I think the bigger issue is parents who give their kids Mountain Dew in a bottle and McDonalds for dinner. There are so many obese or overweight kids and their parents are the only ones to blame.

People in health care get too much praise by literally everyone. "Boo hoo I have to work 14 hour shifts" Like dude, that's a long shift but you make an insane amount of money (as an RN) compared to the average person especially if you add overtime and differential pay; you can make a fuckload of money. I have worked in a hospital and seen highly paid people sit around and make fun of patients sitting feet away from them behind closed doors.

Everyone ignores that they’re paid bucketloads and that their shifts can actually be quite flexible with lots of rest days.
Do you know who actually deserve credit - the seriously underpaid girls who work as carers (at least in the U.K.) who are shat on literally and metaphorically and have terrible contracts.

Lipgloss over lipstick any day.
I think the trend of wearing bold (matte) lipstick looks ridiculous on young women, plus it brings out your lips imperfections (shape, texture,…).
The only exceptions I'd make are mature women at a special event wanting to look glamorous, but please only a nice shiny red (not some weird "unique" colour) or something very subtle if you're an older lady and need a little extra to look fresh but feel like shiny gloss is too much.

On topic, my unpopular opinion is that meat is overrated. Most meat is gross to me and I can’t stand grease or bones or cartilage. I hate the inconsistency in texture. American bacon just seems like salty strips of fat. The only thing I dealt with (before I bit the bullet and just became vegetarian) was white chicken breast. And even then, it’s so easily over or under cooked, tough or chewy, or tasteless. A bean burger always has tasted better to me than beef. Beef can be chewy, tough, bloody, and is just a patty of one taste. A bean burger can be crunchy, smooth, flavorful, consistent texture, etc. Also a lot of raw veg is delicious. I eat raw tomatoes like they’re apples. Raw mushrooms are superior to cooked, they’re crunchy instead of potentially slimey. I don’t need salad dressing or seasoning, just give me a plate of veg and I’m happy.

I didn't think much of it when I saw she befriended Nicole, but then she praised Ginger Bronson (which would've been plausible back when she was blonde and had more of a fanbase, but not at that point), and things started looking suspicious to me ever since. Then, the sudden announcement of her collab with Poppy and Tits during the midst of the lawsuit when their thread was exploding just bolstered things. Three cows is a bit much.
Even if she doesn't browse Lolcow much, she's definitely active in Tumblr scenes where cows and snowflakes pop up often.

>>257638No, but typically, black women carry any excess fat they have all over, especially the hip/ass area, which is probably why it's stereotypically called a "ghetto booty".

You shat up her thread and now continue here under the pretense of it being your 'unpopular opinion'.
How can you accuse anybody of being insecure when you're the one who doesn't want an ugly black woman to be simply black? Do you feel she's too ugly to 'represent' your race? What's the big deal about it, why did you even care or think about this to begin with?

"Representation"? Why would that even matter? She's not famous or relevant to anyone outside her Tumblr in-crowd and on Lolcow. It just looks like you have an odd vendetta around that concept.

I hate how people encourage each other to “let themselves go” when they’re in a committed relationship.

No. 257818
>>257814>people encourage each other to “let themselves go” when they’re in a committed relationshipDo people actually do this? I mean, obviously many people let themselves go, but I've never seen it encouraged anywhere. Men universally freak out at the very idea of their future wife gaining weight, women seem to just accept their husband getting fat as normal.
Anyway in general I agree, that mindset is crazy to me to begin with. My worst nightmare is being someone's increasingly fat wife, if I'm gonna be fat I don't wanna inflict it on anyone else. I once 'let myself go' after I broke up with someone and gained a fair bit of weight because I was like 'finally I'm single, I can quit dieting'. It was fucking awful but way better than if anyone was going to be seeing me naked. I think I'd have had a mental breakdown if I had the external pressure of a partner because I find it discouraging to lose weight for someone else- I can only do it for myself, at my own pace.
No. 257833
>>257830Yep, some people just gain weight when they’re happy. My family loses weight during stressful times because anxiety, appetite, and work. We
all gain it when we’re on holiday, at the start of new relationships, or when things are just going good. When you’re cuddling on a sofa, eating snacks, and watching movies, your weight is going to be different than when you were too anxious to eat all day. Eating out in general will make you gain weight, but especially if you’re on dates all day and eating out for every meal and snacking on cotton candy, popcorn, whatever.
I don’t think people are consciously letting go. Some are just less anxious about their looks, their weight, or their lives in general.

For movies:
Emma Watson, Mila Kunis, Emma Stone, Jennifer Aniston, Charlize Theron, Amy Adams, Julia Roberts, and Cat Blanchett were among the top paid actresses of 2017. They all have relatively small chests.
https://www.forbes.com/pictures/598b86c731358e60d775bca6/worlds-highest-paid-actre/#58f1648160b0Angelina Jolie, Keira Knightly, Sandra Bullock, Reese Witherspoon, Kristen Bell, and Olivia Wilde all have small chests as well. I would argue small boobs are better represented on the big screen.
For tv:
Most of the characters of GOT have smaller chests, except Dany. The main female character on Westworld is not well endowed. I'm not sure about cable TV tbh. I know BBT and Modern Family have women with larger breasts.
For music:
Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, Pink, Gwen Stefani, Rhihanna, etc. Unless you're just looking at Nicki Minaj or Katy Perry.
For fashion:
Kate Middleton, Kendall Jenner, Gisele, Adriana Lima, Kate Moss, Michelle Obama, Alexa Chung, etc

Most of the women I mentioned have relatively smaller or chests, or what would be called "flat." Of course, your definition of that may vary. Not to mention its hard to tell exact sizes based on photos.

Also, about that boob size thing: there are so many female A listers with no or only very small ones. Meanwhile all big chested female actresses always have to either portray the dumb, but hot stereotype or some homely figure…
I'm a D cup and can't really think of anybody I could "admire" or look up to that isn't just fapping material for guys…
Girls with smaller tits can be sexy if they choose to but also don't have to, meanwhile if you're as big as me I can hardly hide them (e.g. pic), which is quite uncomfy, especially when you're just a teen.

What’s that? Boobs come in a variety of shapes and sizes? There is no single perfect boob? Nope, youre just going all “open ur third eye.” Everyone knows big boobs are best and small boobs are unattractive so women with small boobs are justified in hating their bodies because they’re not sexy! /s
In all seriousness, there’s nothing wrong with having boobs like this pic. If you search “big saggy boobs” a shit ton of porn sites come up for guys who are into that. People’s sexual tastes are so diverse so comments like

All types of boobs have been seen as attractive because men are all different. It’s like arguing men don’t “flock” to brunettes, which is obviously not true. Or that being seen as sexy as a blonde is a recent thing, which is again not true.
There is not optimal or even better boob size, nipple size, shape, etc. Men really don’t give that much of a shit if they’re getting laid. Focus on health and confidence and you’re fine. Someone is out there who’ll find you sexy as you are

Clearly when there's boobs being sexualized in media they're always the best, most desirable examples and are not reflections of reality ie. that most big tits are saggy, have stretch marks, large areola, etc.

You’re going around in circles and you’re not accepting anything that’s been said. You keep switching your argument and pretending you’re arguing something different when called out.
Here it is simple: men have different tastes and like different things. Some men “flock” to brunettes, some to blondes, some to red heads. Some to fit women, some to thin, some to thick. Some to flat, some to curvy.

straight men aren't really big on examples such as paris hilton or kate moss. not because they're ugly and flat chested but because those were female celebs that other women were more into.

people lose their damn minds over women with small chests, and it's not about muh male attention because if anything I'm tired of all the attention being on my breast size, people can barely even let women live peacefully with small breasts, strangers always have to make comments on it unless you wear burqas and live in a closet all day

it just depends on the person, some big tits can look bad, some small boobs can look bad, even average sized boobs can look bad, it all depends on the shape, perkiness, ratio to the rest of the body, nipple/areola/boob ratio, etc, not so much size

Tits are just that, fat and usually look ugly without a bra or some sort of support. Literally cow udders.
Small breast are always cute and perky. I might be biased but I really like mine and I think they look better sooooo much better than some saggy lumps of fat.

and powerful. The male gaze and how much it favors you does not reduce the rest of your merits (and tbh, even if we try to "unsex" ourselves collectively, men are freaks. They'll just find a way to romanticize and sexualize us anyway. We can not escape objectification, the male libido
will find a way. Might as well work with it).
That said, I'd like to see more hot male characters, too. I don't really like to watch or play as ugly characters in general, and I'm sick and tired of seeing either the blandest males made so that male fans can self-insert, or hideous Zyzz-tier ogres everywhere just because anything else might make neckbeards jealous or start to question their sexuality.

For example, the reason the anime industry is oversaturated with moeshit isn't because the producers are all manchildren making what they want. It's because the fanbase who have shown the most buying power are like that, and everything is done to appease them. It's just a matter of usurping their place.
The otome market for girls who want cute/sexualized guys is big, too, and it'll only get bigger the more it (or content like it) is supported. Useless neckbeards will scream and cry, but if we're paying the most money, they'll have to deal.

I believe that Pizzagate (or rather, Pedogate, as the pizza restaurant is far from the only hub for this sort of thing) is very real. The evidence stacks up way too much. You can literally watch documentaries like "A Conspiracy of Silence", "An Open Secret", look at how people like Jimmy Saville, Victor Salva and Roman Polanski are essentially protected and defended, etc to find out it's not just a conspiracy theory. Jeffrey Epstein, an important figure, has literally been outed for owning an entire island that he used for child trafficking, and Bill Clinton has been exposed for going there more than once (along with a long list of celebrities). The mode of transportation used to get there was literally called "the Lolita Express", but people just ignore all of it for some reason. It honestly makes my blood boil a little bit when people insist it's "fake", because I can tell they never took the time to analyze things much. Don't even get me started on the John Podesta/"Skippy" thing and leaked child abuse videos.
I also hate that some Trump supporters are using it to try and gain political leverage and make everything about democrats. Trump is part of it. He casually talked about Epstein's child trafficking island, and it was clear he gave no fucks. This is beyond partisan politics or "sides". It's a global issue. No politician can "stop" it, they're almost all involved.

>>258619completely agree with your first paragraph. he seemed like a snobby food critic trying really really hard to show everyone he's #notliketheotherfoodnetworkstars and super edgy and real. Not a bad person and I'm sure he really was a nice guy to hang out with but I have so many friends writing about him like he was their actual dad.
As for the second point, I think sometimes having a lot of wealth and success can actually make these things worse, as you can't just say your problems will go away once you get more money or more success. There's a feeling that this is as good as it gets and therefore your problems will never go away. Still not a rational way to feel but I've seen it.

>>258619>I also don't understand why someone successful and well-loved would kill themselves.I agree with you anon and idgaf what excuses people will cook up on their behalf to explain the decision away.
Money does, in fact, make help and resources more available. So even if these celebrities have(had) an aversion to asking friends, family, colleagues, or even the countless fans who lick their asses for help, they still could have bought it.
Bought help doesn't work? Fine, then at least they tried something before slapping the faces of every mentally ill person who can only dream of having a fraction of the options they had.
Some people don't even have the luxury to suicide even if they want it. They'd have to think about the impact it'd leave on their families via lost income and funeral expenses. Money and help that they don't have to leave them.
Celebrities are not like you or I, and to act otherwise is to choose ignorance over reality.

>>258656I think people have zero obligation to respect or give a fuck about anyone's religion in general. There is nothing tangible or concrete about their beliefs (unlike race or sexuality or something self evident like that), as far as I'm concerned I owe them as much acceptance as I do kids with imaginary friends or people who believe in astrology- that is, you just acknowledge that it's what some ill equipped people need to get by and ignore it as much as they let you.
Just saying this gets you called an edgy atheist even by other atheists these days but I just don't think ~beliefs~ warrant any special indulgences.
No. 258661
>>258658So why doesn't every person with mental illness constantly make irrational decisions based on emotions if it's truly uncontrollable and never guided by things like guilt and accountability?
Face it, we've romanticized suicide as an option and sent the message that we'll absolve the deceased of responsibility (the latter a very attractive prospect for people wanting to die).
A celebrity knows better and has all the opportunity and they make the conscious decision not to. Again fine, but call it as it is and let's not pretend these people are being held by the balls in life.
No. 258663
>>258661Not the anon you replied to but not all mental illness is made equal and you don't feel the same every day with a mental illness. Some days you have better control over your emotions than others and some days you feel better than others.
When I had my suicide attempt years ago I genuinely, desperately wanted the pain to end and wanted to die, wanted to go to sleep and never wake up.
That was like 4 years ago now, I still have mental illness but I don't feel suicidal everyday and even when I do feel suicidal it's nowhere near as intense as the day I had my attempt.

And while I'm not even white and I know about Islam a bit more than the average white people in my country I feel like I can't complain about it either, even though it affects my daily life because of my family, acquaintances and upbringing.
Even though I know what I'm talking about, unlike a bunch of people who don't like Islam because what it stands for more than because of what it does in some people's daily lives. And it's super weird when non-muslim and white people who don't know me online accuse me of being racist and an islamophobe when I complain about people nagging at me for not fasting in ramadan and asking super personal questions as to why I don't, for example. I wish people also wouldn't treat religion like they treat race, sex or sexual orientation when they talk about discrimination and other social problems.
>Nobody needs to be understanding and accepting of any fucking culture period.People seem like they're confusing "respect people [who respect you]" and "completely understand and accept other cultures no matter what".

>>258670Better access to healthcare gives someone more support in tackling the mental illness but that's not necessarily linked to money, we don't even know what causes most mental illness so you can't pay more money to fix it.
I'm one of the anon's you replied to but I'm also a med student and used to be a nurse, trust me if throwing money at the problem worked, you wouldn't see so many rich people with addictions etc.

>Do you think suicide is some kind of get out of jail free card?I mean are you implying people never kill themselves so they won't have to face consequences? Not that this matters, most everyone who kills themselves knows they're doing it to be away from this life so yes.
>>258672>Better access to healthcare gives someone more support in tackling the mental illness but that's not necessarily linked to money.Being able to afford healthcare is inherently linked to money.
Again, more money means you'll be able to buy any medications you want and afford to switch at any time whereas most people can't or need to wait for insurance approvals or until they save up.
More money means you can see top professionals in the mental health care fields. And if that professional isn't a good fit? Great news for the rich. They won't have to research who's covered by their insurance and transportation to whatever office they need to get to will be a non-issue. Whereas with other people finding coverage, a good professional, and then traveling to that office is a huge issue.
Poverty and financial stress is linked to higher rates of suicide. There's no way this doesn't make sense to you.

>>258514It happens ALL THE TIME when important figures have been outed as being part of a pedophile ring. Like what happened in Belgium in the 90's - an ex-victim of child sex abuse revealed that a lot of high-class Belgian politicians, businessmen, judges etc. had been arranging child sex orgies and torturing young children with a solid testimony and being able to tell things nobody would know unless they went through it. This surfaced when Marc Dutroux
was arrested for raping, kidnapping and killing children and claimed to be working for this exact pedophile ring and the police found a lot of proof to support this claim. Hundreds of thousands of people marched to gain justice for the murdered and abused girls. Suddenly the police were told to drop the case when they were making process with it and the local national news outlet started a smear campaign against the ex-victim was a raving lunatic and a pathological liar, and now everyone who talks about this whole thing is considered an insane conspiracy theorist. It's really sickening.

>>258702Didn't the same story come out about the British parliament in the 70s-90s (apparently Thatcher knew) just a few years ago, but for some reason this was not considered front page worthy?

There was a huge website for I believe the British parlament ring that had mountains of evidence but you'd never hear about it unless you dug.
>>258715That's another one I wish wasn't called a conspiracy because of how clearly true it is. That one netflix drama was frustrating to watch because you know nothing will hhappen after the nun's death
Is there a thread here for conspiracy theories? It'd be interesting to talk more about certain ones.

It's just people with different ideas and those ideas vary in quality depending on the intelligence and beliefs of those people. Same as music, art, movies, porn, opinions, religions, philosophies, even scientific theories.

>>258715And here's an example of the same thing happening in Lithuania. Note that YouTube deleted this video and terminated the uploader's account while it was getting popular. None of the site's rules were broken, but the Lithuanian government definitely did not want this gaining too much traction.
I wanted to post a CliffNotes version, but this is a pretty complicated story.
Basically, a couple divorces, and custody of the child is given to the mother. Later, the child starts talking to her father and his family about being molested by several men at her mother's house. The father takes this seriously, films an hour-long video of the daughter describing it (she was very young at this time, it's disturbing), and takes it to court. The father gets full custody, but somehow no charges are filed against the men involved, or the mother. The father decides to go public with things, goes to the news and starts naming names (some of which are powerful people, like one with a direct connection to Parliament). The police drag their feet investigating this because the accused are high-status people.
"Randomly" and "suddenly", both the appointed judge for the case and the mother's sister are shot dead on the same day with the same weapon. And then, the girl's father is found dead with the murder weapon placed near his body (the official story from the police is he "died of vomiting from alcohol abuse", but no trace of vomit was found on his body or clothes. His family hires a private investigator who claims the father was actually drowned, and the police are lying). After this, the court decides the daughter should be returned to the abusive mother's custody (she's in the care of the father's family members at this point), causing mass protests. At first, the court rescinds its decision to give the girl back to her mother, then suddenly goes back on things. The protestors manage to protect her by forming a wall, blocking police, until 250 police officers are sent to barge into the house. They forcibly barge in and take the daughter out, screaming (Let that sink in. 250 police officers were appointed to remove a little girl from a safe home to an abusive one). She later "disappears" entirely. No one knows what happened to her for sure. Meanwhile, the father's family members (specifically his sister and her son) try to speak up, and the sister gains political traction for going against the Lithuanian government's corruption. They end up having to flee to the US in a case for asylum because the Lithuanian government is working against them, but the mother is soon detained. The Lithuanian government tries to shut them down with all sorts of criminal allegations ("psychological molestation", "contempt of court", "illegal surveillance", etc). At the same time, family members and supporters of them are also facing criminal charges.
The son uploaded this video requesting people sign a petition to protect his mother from being sent back to Lithuania because there was no chance she'd get a fair trial, but YouTube pulled it, the petition didn't reach enough signatures, and they seem to have since gone grey.

But from the shit I've seen and read (or even just a quick look at history), that just isn't the case. If anything, what you're claiming sounds like true naivete. I'm not cynical or "acting woke". I genuinely want things to get better, and that requires taking a look at reality and recognizing problems, instead of living in a bubble of "Oh wow those are like totally third world problems, glad my government would never fuck me over uwu". If you want to continue closing your eyes and plugging your ears, that's fine. You're not a political figure or anything.

You just can’t admit you said something ignorant and now want to argue against something nobody has said. Nobody has said the wealthy and the poor have the same treatment options or help available. Nobody has said that the wealthy are just as likely to kill them selves or that they have the same rates of suicidal thoughts.

>A fat tax aims to decrease the consumption of foods that are linked to obesity. A related idea is to tax foods that are linked to increased risk of coronary heart disease. Numerous studies suggest that as the price of a food decreases, individuals get fatter.[2][3][4] In fact, eating behavior may be more responsive to price increases than to nutritional education.[5] Estimates suggest that a 1 cent per ounce tax on sugar-sweetened beverages may reduce the consumption of those beverages by 25%.[6] However, there is also evidence that obese individuals are less responsive to changes in the price of food than normal-weight individuals.[7]It sounds stupid as fuck and the name doesn’t help. It has issues
>Since the poor spend a greater proportion of their income on food, a fat tax might be regressive. But it does make sense even if it would be tricky to implement
>Research indicates that the current obesity epidemic is increasing as a result of the fast food industry expanding. Junk food outlets are changing the dietary habits of society, pushing out traditional restaurants and leading to the detrimental health effects of obesity, diabetes and heart disease.[16] Taxes on tobacco have seen smoking rates decrease, and as a result there have been calls for fat taxes to be implemented in more countries in an attempt to reduce the consumption of unhealthy foods.[15] No. 258985

Not to mention the clusterfuck that was 2017 the whole Nicki Minaj "I am the generous Queen, ask Ms Ellen" song lyric and the MTV MA's Katy Perry Ellen tribute. When was Ellen ever big in the world of MTV and music?
Hillary Clinton is also the same, a closet lesbian who married a rapist to become first lady and a household name who was never very likeable to begin with.

I also believe in shaming them for their poor sense of style, low effort hairstyles, etc.
But honestly, women go above and beyond for their looks and still get shit on constantly for not being hot enough. I wouldn't nitpick people I know IRL but I can't help but think that men 'deserve' us being harsher on their looks from a distance… like online, or celebrities. They have no qualms about doing it to us so I can't see it as evil, the only question is whether or not we want to sink to their level.

I'm no saint and sometimes I do think "wow she/he is ugly" but I ignore the thought and never let it affect my treatment of the person in question.
I think that my unpopular opinion is that beauty in people is an overrated concept. I hate it when people say they would deal with a trainwreck of a significant other because they are hot (my forever alone neet ex-almost-fwb kek) or obsess about their own looks.

LGBT groups are starting to feel obnoxious to me. Especially to some younger people it's not special enough to be just gay, lesbian, bi, or even trans anymore, or their "gayness" is their entire personality and they won't shut up about it.
I don't like stirring shit so I just keep quiet about how I think "pansexuals" are just bi, straight asexuals are not LGBT, nonbinaries and other genderqueers are just enforcing gender roles, some trans people are not "real" trans and the trendy trans bandwagon really is a thing, etc. If I said any of that stuff around certain groups I could easily make a lot of people hate me for being a transphobic, aphobic, whateverthefuckphobic TERF bigot.
I've started to kinda avoid LGBT places, events and people who are really vocal about LGBT stuff, because I don't want to run into some 15-year-old kid who's a nonbinary (because they like wearing ties but also dresses) pan- (hearts not parts uwu!!!) demi- (having sex with total strangers is kinda gross, I'm special right?) asexual (not horny 24/7, unlike those disgusting allos) softboi (he/him they/them please!).

I've done it myself with my boyfriend, but I'd never shame him or random men because their clothes aren't up to my fashion standards or because their hairstyles are "low effort".

Unpopular opinion: I think western men in todays world are too weak
First they cry oppression because they aren't surronded by beautiful women all while not even lifting a finger for their appearance, women who aren't x y and z aren't options to them, and then they cry about how "waaahh women only want chad" if they ever even left the internet for once they'd know its far from true
I WISH women did only flock to chads then men would have something to actually cry their damn eyes out for, and if that wasn't enough, ever since men being emotional has been encouraged, instead of using it for good they instead use tears to manipulate, just like the 1% of bitches they whined about, I've seen it happen way too much
They excuse womens problems then cry about how men are the least privileged people on earth because women arent flocking to them or they have to sign up for the draft, even though most will never step foot on combat
They act like victims and act like they're having the biggest weight on their shoulder if a woman they're with isn't a jav star, always have a no winning standard, go out of their way to demonize anything women do but still believe they're oppressed, not to mention how many will crack a womans skull open if she bumps shoulders with him, cry sexism if he gets punished, which they barely do, then later have everyone defend them since everything is womens fault

How are some people in this thread equating asexuality to heterosexuality? By definition, the former means you have no sexual attraction. Straightness is not the default, and that sort of heternormative outlook on things is actually what fuels homophobia/lesbophobia.
Having no sexual attraction obviously causes problems, because 90% of the population, when in a relationship, want to fuck. You are seen as problematic simply for not having such impulses, you will struggle to find a partner, people will associate your natural state with mental illness or trauma because they're too close-minded to entertain that not everyone is like them, etc and it's just not good. It may not be as immediately visible a diversion from the norm as being homosexual, but it's still a diversion, which leads to issues and social oppression. I'm not saying there aren't run of the mill straight people who claim ace just to get into "the club", but throwing all asexual people under the bus because of that is fucked up.
I'm not even asexual (I'm bisexual), but with the way some people are treating them, I honestly think ace (and maybe aromantic) people need to create their own movement and space (of course, if that ever happens, I bet the same exclusionists will start complaining that ace people think they're better than everyone and start calling them "homophobic" if they ever express sexual repulsion, even if they're romantically attracted to the same sex).
No. 259614

>You are seen as problematic simply for not having such impulses, you will struggle to find a partner, people will associate your natural state with mental illness or trauma because they're too close-minded to entertain that not everyone is like themMaybe you live a cushy life where you have never struggled with any of that shit and people are somewhat open-minded, but there are those of us who face prejudice that's basically an even heavier version of this with more violence and anger thrown in, and can't even come out to their family. Like I said, it may not be as visible a diversion from the norm, but it's actually the most blatant, and I sympathize with ace people because literally everyone is against them for no real reason other than close-mindedness.

No. 259625
>>259609This is some real tumblr sjw bullshit. Yes, being asexual causes problems. Those problems are purely interpersonal, not societal, not discriminatory, and not related to oppression. Realistically it's no different to being celibate, chronically single, dead bedrooms, having health problems that cause low libido, having mental/emotional barriers to sex etc. I'm not denying that it's difficult, but asexuality does not function like a sexuality and oppression just doesn't factor into the issues it creates. You don't have to justify yourself to society, just people who bother you about fucking them or getting laid.
If asexuals weren't so obsessed with their special minority status label they could just say they have a very low libido. But that's too common and normal for them, nobody gets oppression points for it.
No. 259637
>>259625You're chalking up the lack of sexuality to mental illness, just as I pointed out, and somehow still denying aphobia's pervasiveness. It's not a low libido, it's the absence of one altogether. You are expected to "fix" a low libido, but asexual people only seek to be accepted.

>>255721I believe that Gays should be put into mandatory mental health programs and if they refuse, into institutions because they are just straight people who were molested and never got the help.
Homosexuality is not romantic, AIDs and HIV are on the rise because of the promotion of unprotected sex in the LGBT community. Fags with AIDS continue to have sex as if they don't have AIDS because of the overgenerous nature of Jewish Big Pharmaceuticals.
Children prone to homosexuality pursue the lifestyle because they seek the same reward system they were conditioned into by their abusers. Over time they end up assuming the role of groomer and abuser. A lot of homosexuals are pedophiles. Pedophiles must be killed.
The crystal meth epidemic within the Gay community is a stark example of why the idea of genetic homosexuality is not real. Drugs are often used to abuse and condition victims of abuse, victims become addicted and seek out drugs in settings that can offer them the security of the sexual conditioning that very few can relate to, and ultimately the reward of social contact with like minded individuals, sadistic homosexual activity and drugs. The only setting that can offer them such safety, understanding and sense of community is the Gay LGBT community.
Look at any celebrity with a history of bisexuality, homosexuality, sex addiction and drug addiction.

>>255721I believe there is no such thing as a diverse beauty standard as at the end of the day all of these ambiguous mystery meats champion their white features over their ethnic features and so do their supporters.
https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/biracialbabies/https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/biracialbeauty/https://www.instagram.com/golden_barbie/?hl=enhttps://www.instagram.com/jmeeksofficial/The biracial beauty standard is just a way for bitter ethnic people the breed white elements into their children and place them on the pedestal for their 'unique' biracial identity. They can live through their children and grasp a perverse sense of what they believe whiteness to be, without having to acknowledge that they are aggressively chasing the white beauty standard.
Blue eyes on dark skin, blonde hair on dark skin, caramel fair skin, straight hair, long neck, slender frame. Its all the same shit. Anything but Black. Blasians are ok. Blacks are the ones who buy heavily into this. They then like to paint themselves as the victims even though what they are doing is very very wrong.
>"You don't know what it's like to grow up feelin undesirable!">"My daughter is black, she is just as black as anybody"Notice how these same ethnic women never ever associate with biracial people that share their ethnicity. Its unheard of. Yet they will play the role of pioneer for social change whilst placing their children in precarious social predicaments where they are forced to prove and champion one side of their race over the other.
The idea of modelling and the beauty industry is a highly Eurocentric as we know it, yet models like Naomi Campbell and Tyra Bank complained when they could not get work. Why were they complaining? Why was black representation so important in a Eurocentric tradition like fashion and modelling. Why do these people constantly try to push their biracial children into this industry? To connect to their heritage?
What is wrong with European institutions championing European values and European features? The largest consumers are/were European. Now the fashion industry is a joke.
European fashion week was blasted for not featuring 'enough black models' and for 'lacking diversity' but where are all these diverse fashion labels and tabloids championing their message. The only one I see doing it is Kanye and he too came under fire for casting too much mystery meat.
This scene from Madmen is pretty telling, everybody knows why the fashion industry is failing, but nobody wants to say it. Nepotism and forced diversity.

>>259764Lolcow is like that, so many of the people here are ugly and narcissistic at the same time so they constantly shift the epitome of what they believe beauty is. They will paint it in a way that they have such high standards all whilst referencing photoshopped images and supermodels. They make it a point to make you guess what their standards of beauty are, even though the question of
>"what do you find beautiful"is fairly simple. Go onto the internet and find a jpeg, or describe it through text.
They will never judge someone or something on how well the features work together to complement the full image.
>"Her eyes complement her skin tone, her hair frames her facial structure well, etc."They will only nitpick at certain characteristics and use it to debunk the idea of beauty even existing.
>"I don't like her nose, its too broad, it makes her eyes look too close together, therefore she is ugly because of that one feature etc"They don't want to admit to being able to find beauty in a real person so they change the definition and criteria of what defines beauty. They do it to appear as if they are perfectionists but they have a very low bar of what constitutes beauty.
>"I like her nose"
>"Her eyes are pretty"Based on the emphasis they place on these features alone the isolated look of ones eyes and nose with no reference to how they work on a face makes that a 10/10 beauty image. This is Lolcows unpopular opinions not Lolcows careful considerations. If you want discourse you must assume you are speaking to the mentally ill.

Even as an owner of a rescue pitmix, I agree Pitbulls should be phased out, but not because they're HURRDURR MEAN. It's because human beings are fucking awful and use and abuse them to fight with, as "security", or otherwise ruin what could have been a good dog because they've become a symbol of intimidation.
My unpopular opinion: No more purebred dogs. Mutt them all up.
So many breeds have hit their genetic bottleneck and are guaranteed to be born sick or eventually become sick in their lifetime. Every time I see a pug or a bulldog, I just think about how they struggle to even exist, but people perpetuate the breeds because "soooo cute!1"

No. 260105
>>260088All of this. The le chiahuahua meme is so fucking retarded and I can't believe pit owners use it ALL the time. A chihuahua is never able to maim you to death. A chihuahua can't lock your jaws around your throat and shake you until you die. Pit bulls haven't been chosen as the go-to breed for psychopaths and criminals at random, they're popular within shitty owners because they're naturally vicious, muscular, unpredictable and strong. It's much, MUCH easier to make a pitbull attack someone than say, a golden retriever. Other dogs bite you once when they're threatened, pitbulls can go into mauling mode when they're overstimulated (like during playing) and not stop until their target is dead.
I'm sorry, I just can't bring myself to be sympathetic towards this breed even though I love dogs. And that's probably the reason, in my country pitbulls are relatively rare but the few ones that we have kill other dogs every year. No other breeds have such a track record with killing other dogs in my country. And the attacks ALWAYS come as a "surprise" to the owner. The always calm and happy nanny dog uwu just suddenly snapped and lunged at someone.

>>260088There's no question of which can do more damage, but I was comparing them completely in terms of showing/acting on aggression. I'm not sure of your source for their lack of warning signals, but I'd be interested in seeing it.
As with all breeds, there's a certain balance in the nature vs. nurture aspect. I absolutely believe there are some lines of Pitbulls that have been bred into complete mental illness and are incapable of being saved due to improper selective breeding in dogfighting circles (as they obviously pursue strength/toughness over other more positive traits). However, there are also genetic lines which have not been so poisoned by these organizations, and I think that's what a lot of people don't consider when taking a stance on these dogs. People in certain regions may only have interactions with ones who are well-bred and/or trained vs. ones with bad genetic lines/aggressive training because of local culture, limited/large genetic variation with breeding, and many other factors that can effect any number of dog breeds.
>>260105I like how you complain about the chihuahua meme and then almost immediately mention the "locking jaws" meme, lol. A lot of things you mentioned could be said for plenty of breeds, even Chihuahuas are victims of awful backyard breeding and their propensity for aggression could be partially genetic, as well. As I mentioned, there is a cultural aspect playing into this (aka the criminal underground) creating and training certain genetic strains to be completely human/dog unfriendly animals. Dogs are more a victim in these cases thanks to dogfighting circles, and those who attack humans unprovoked are almost always owned by those with a criminal background and were trained to be that way. I would guess this is the case for the dogs in your country.
As an example, my experience with Pitbulls is completely opposite to yours, even with some of the dogs which were rescued from fighting rings. The ones I have met have been good fits within their families and even other dogs/animals, and I have never met or seen a local report of someone or their dog being attacked by a Pitbull breed. There are definitely some which are borderline and have restrictions, but if handled correctly, do not cause issues.
>>260119Even the ASPCA doesn't agree with banning breeds because it leads to more problems. As I mentioned before, I'm all for phasing out that Pitbull branch of dogs. I think ones exhibiting good traits could be mixed with other breeds and create really wonderful companions. But some lineages are truly fucked because of horrible breeding.

It's kind of like how some otaku think that just because a manga or anime for a niche audience makes a reference to another popular anime or manga, without the reference being a joke in the first place sometimes, then it means that their favorite manga/anime is so innovative and funny and clever. Don't know if you see what type of fanboy I'm talking about.

Kind of related to the anons above me.
I hate how ''sex-positivity'' is being promoted right now. The over-sexualization of young girls has always been awful, but I feel like it's getting completely out of hand nowadays due to social media like instagram and musical.ly. Both girls in Pic related were around 14-16 in these pictures. This is not what a teen should dress like. It's borderline child pornography to be honest and there were even more revealing pictures, especially of Nathalie Paris (the girl on the pictures on the right). She just turned 18 a year ago and these pictures are about 2 years old.
It's shocking to me how you're labeled as a bad person for criticizing this fuckery, and that you're just ''slut shaming'' and shouldn't ''tell girls how to dress'' - it's mostly what ''feminists'' say, which is pretty sad and ironic.
This is so damaging towards young girls; to them it's ''you have to dress sexy, pose seductively, wear shirts that say ''baby girl'' and wear a lot of make up at a very young age to be popular''. It's so fucked up and I can't believe this isn't being condemned more by the mainstream media. I swear, give it will be normalized and accepted for grown men to fuck teenagers. I would not be surprised.

What is up with Americans doing the ancestry tests and bragging about how they are 25% Italian and shit. This crap mostly means nothing if you were not born in the culture and the only thing that ties you to it is your blood. I live in Europe and almost all people I talked about it to considers people born and raised in America americans and wouldn't call them the part of our culture. Since they don't care about the country, culture, language and history, moreover, these americans only remember about their ancestry when it benefits them or they want to prove their point even thought they basically know nothing about it.
On the same note, the few times I saw young americans (these people specified so) bitching about how they can't buy a big beautiful house and a car in their 20's. When people pointed out that it is normal, they always used the same excuse, that their grandparents got it and it was expected so they are entitled to it. I can help, but want to slap these whiny, spoiled brats. Thought, I admit that in Europe there are similar young people, but in general I live in one of the poorer countries and here saying this would mean a disrespect for your parents and being rotten spoiled.

I'd say I feel the same way about some African Americans, sort of. I don't like seeing them brag about Africa and being African even though they can't even name a single country where they could come from and they never went anywhere near the continent. I don't care if the reason why they do that is because they're overcompensating for the fact that they don't know where their ancestors come from because of slavery, they don't know shit about Africa and its countries and cultures most of the time.

>>260674I think it's because they think being something other than American makes them "special" or "unique" (but since everyone in the US can claim some kind of ancestry to Europe, it really doesn't). I think Americans claiming German or Italian ancestry is like Tumblrinas claiming they're a non-binary demi-boy or like people with Munchausen's claiming they have 20 different auto-immune diseases. It's not interesting to say you're "American" or a "cis white male" or that you spend your weekends knitting and not hooked up to an IV.
I also believe Americans claim to have ancestry from other countries so they can act as a kind of "gatekeeper" to that country/culture. Americans with an Italian great-grandmother are somehow experts in Italian culture and will lecture you about it because how dare you question someone who is "Italian" (having any drop of it would make you 100% Italian by their standards). It's funny because none of them speak the language, none of them can cook any of the cuisine and they probably can't even name a film or song associated with the country. Nor do they ever make any effort to learn about the culture they're supposedly from. I'm Irish and I'm sick to death of Plastic Paddies who are making a mockery of my culture.
>bitching about how they can't buy a big beautiful house and a car in their 20'sThey've no idea what it's like to live in Europe. Tiny, expensive apartments and people living with their parents into their 30s because they can't afford their own place due to the housing crisis. Huge American houses are cheap af and it'd take me half the time to save for a nice house in the US than it would here where I'd be getting a smaller, inferior home. They're so spoiled and they don't even realise it.

>>260674It's not really that deep. Yeah there are families that still pass down the family tartan or whatever but for most people it holds the same importance and identity as a horoscope. For example:

German pride, dude!"But I think it's such a standard conversation topic, it's hard to ignore when we speak to foreigners who actually have a connection to "the homeland." But yeah, anyone who suddenly starts to identify with their newfound 12% Norwegian heritage is a fool and should be mocked.

I'd hate to say it but inflation is definitely impacting america, even in rural areas, and no just because other countries have it worse doesn't mean we shouldn't fix our problem, my parents are both uni graduates who pay 1200k for a tiny 2 bedroom, falling apart apartment which is an hour away from anything, when I lived with them I use to have to drive an hour to work each day, and we HAVE to rely on cars, it fucking sucks, I'd rather live in Europe with the equal amount of pricing because at least I wouldn't have to waste hours on end and money on gas just to get anywhere, and since you HAVE to go to college to get a good job, it will only leave you in debt forever, at least with european countries,uni is affordable
However, what pisses me off is that millenials who cry about not being able to afford an uptown 3 bedroom, apartment with tons of appliances for under 800 a month, it's like they think they're too good to live anywhere that isn't the big city and the same hipsters mock suburban and rural folks yet its them who's paying almost 1000 a month for a tiny,hideous apartment with no furniture and everything working but its ok since it's on main street or whatever, and it makes people who talk about issues with inflation look like those types of millenials who just are retarded when it comes to money management

>>260726The issue is that America's culture is very young compared to others so we haven't really had time to establish much of our own distinct culture. When you travel to other countries there are buildings and rituals and local dishes that have existed for centuries. We're just not far enough removed from our immigrant ancestors, so everything seems like it's part of another culture. Other anons mentioned texmex and macn'cheese, and soul food and burgers and chop suey too. It's not much, but it's a start.
If you want to feel patriotic, try appreciating the land more than the customs or people. Drive out to the plains and just stare at the sky. Climb mountains, go to the forest, or the coast. There's a lot to love.

I'm a shitty waitress and there is no jobs around here except gas stations but they never have any openings and would only hire old people with lots of experience for minimum wage, I wanted to find a job as a teen but the thing about companies here is that they don't wanna hire high schoolers but they wanna pay adults like high schoolers
1200 month rent, and you have to have insurance and everything since I live in the hurricane belt but insurance is evil so when there was a flood a few years ago we were forced to move but the insurance had a long list of things they didn't pay for so my parents had to pay for it just to not even live in the house they had to sell the house, it was hell
>>260738>Piss me off seeing americans cry about expensive educationI'm sorry but easy or not easy, I think americans do have the right to "whine" about expensive education, it's not just a few thousand dollars, like in europe or some countries even go to uni in europe for free, but americans are pretty much forced to go to uni all the while it costs a fortune, that can often take the rest of your life to pay off, why it pisses you off is beyond me, learn to emphasize instead of excusing people living off of ramen and being millions in debt just to get an education as "lazy whiners"
>when they don't even bother to spent five hours after school-time to study.lol most of the ~hard working non-whiney european students~ don't even do that, maybe or 4 hours max but you're delusional if you think European students spend 5+ hours studying after school each day, incase you forgotten, there's 24 hours in a day
