>>356083I’m completely submissive in the bedroom and it’s entirely for my own pleasure, and in all other aspects of my relationship my opinions and thoughts hold equal if not often more weight. Just because some women like humiliation and pain while getting a good dicking doesn’t mean that they’re either a) complete and utter doormats who when told to jump ask how high, or b) filthy degenerates who are into ddlg and broadcast their sexual lives to all those around them and talk about how empowering it is to fulfil someone’s pedophilic fantasies.
Radfems, while I absolutely agree with so many of your philosophies, you guys need to take a good hard look at how you treat the women you’re supposed to be liberating. The amount of times I’ve seen condescending posts about women that like subbing, anal, anything other than vanilla or femdom really, not abstaining from heterosexual sex/relationships, is ridiculous. Because a lot of the time you act like mysoginists with vaginas and it hurts so much more than when a man is sexist.
No. 356123
>>356120I agree tbh. The difference between pain and pleasure, especially on a neurological level, is a thin line; and of course it's different for everyone. Some people can't accept this, or are uncomfortable with their own sexualities/fantasies, so they will attempt to control others as a way to blanket their insecurity. Personally, I'm a fucking wimp and absolutely abhor pain, but it would be pretty childish of me to judge you for what you enjoy in the privacy of your bedroom with a consenting adult. Short of serious bodily injury, like those weirdos who want to eat eachother, why is it any of my business?
But at least women will just snipe and judge you. Men, on the other hand, will murder women for not having the same sexual preferences. Maybe that's the fundamental difference.

I like radfem ideaology, but femdom isn’t my thing and I like a little bedroom power play. When radfems act like all instances of “pain” in sex is bad (a light spanking, a love bite) and conflate it with the hardcore BDSM that actually physically marks women with bruises or sometimes kills them, that just makes it easier for BDSM shills to discredit them.

>>356212Pregnancy and childbearing are very compartmentalized from standard sexuality in modern society in the same way that lactating breasts are from regular big titties. Seriously wanting to act on it as a kink is fine if you've time traveled from a place where that was literally always the outcome of sex, but in a world where pregnancy is a choice, we can admit that it's a serious action that shouldn't be done lightly just as a kink.
If two people genuinely want to start a family with someone they like then that's not really a kink because it's natural and full of positive intent, the intimacy of pregnancy might be sexy there, but when people talk about breeding/impregnation kinks they're usually meaning it in a more bdsm way and treating a baby as a bdsm accessory is fucking gross. Men like gurg have bdsm impregnation fetishes as form of control over women, as staking their territory and making them dependant and unattractive to others.
Pregnancy seriously alters your life for at least 15+ years and creates another whole new life, as far as kinks go that's right up there with getting your face tattooed.

>>356321I agree that the childfree community can be quite toxic and ironically as misogynist but I see that's due to societal pressure on women to have kids. It's women that have to sacrifice work, body, time and energy and society sometimes acts as if we're walking incubators and nothing else. I hate when people expect me to be emotional or to love kids just by the virtue of being a woman. And it's easy to see how that could make some women more vocal about totally not being into kids by any means.
Which doesn't excuse behavior of some people but I'd rather have them then the opposite.
Also, with the world's population growing by a steadily fast rate, it does kind of make the act of bringing another human life onto this planet less magical. I know it must be special for the parents but to anyone else, you're just another digit. It's tough to cherish human life when there's plenty already. Less resources, more consumers, more crime etc.

>>356400>Most young men don't want marriage, they don't want children. And here it is, the real, honest reason women go for older men. Saying old men are attractive and mature is 100% a cope - if you want marriage and kids, you have no choice but to go for an old man, because young attractive men on your level won't want them. Men have fixed the dating game so that they can win later in life and get a girl in her 20s when they're middle aged and 'ready' for kids (aka have spent their youth partying and sleeping around). Meanwhile damning women who wait until 30 because they want a career or financial stability.
The fact is your husband doesn't give a shit about your maturity. He wouldn't find you attractive if you were 48, or 72. It's sad to be in such an unbalanced relationship but I get it, you do what you have to to get what you want out of life, it's not like you're wrong about young men. But the part where you pretend old men are so handsome and mature, and glorify trad submission is what fucks over other women, because grotty old men wanting childbrides actually believe it.

This is genuinely horrifying, he better be rich as fuck because you'll be babysitting him in a decade and he'll be like a second child rather than a mature dominating older guy.
My grandmother and grandfather are 8 years difference and they're the sweetest couple I know, but now that they're in their 70s the difference in hearing and memory is noticeable. Unless you plan on ditching him in some home you'll be suffering for a few decades watching him lose himself and die.

No. 356511
>>356480There is no logical, biological reason to find older men attractive. Ever indicator of health (skin, hair, body) declines. There is, however, plenty of media brainwashing to convince society that men age like fine wine, that wrinkles are rugged, that dadbods are hot, that going grey = silver fox. Meanwhile twice that effort is put into selling women anti aging products and telling them they need to get a man before 30 or they are fucked.
I'm not saying it's impossible for an older man to be hot, and our age range preferences seem to naturally increase as we age (unlike men who always prefer 20 year olds). But the fact is that a handsome older man wont be as attractive as himself when he was younger, assuming he didn't drastically alter his appearance for the better.

>>356529>Anyone notice it's always the uggos that say this shitIt's because they need to blame their limited options on something other than their terrible personality and subpar looks.
They say women their own age are awful because women their own age can see right through their shit. It's not a physical thing. Some 25 year old women will look exactly the same at 55. Some will look 55 when they are 25. It's the lack of experience that draws these creeps in, nothing else.
Creepy dudes always spout the "[insert race]aren't nagging shrews like [insert race]" too. They want to pretend their lack of success is down to unfortunate geography and not their personalities. I'd wager that this Frenchman blames French culture only when it comes to the women and believes that very same culture has raised him perfectly. I bet he hates French women for not putting up with his shit and likes to pretend that there's a magical land of Asian ladies waiting only for him because that stupid belief is easier to swallow than the fact that any woman with freedom and options is highly unlikely to ever truly love him.
And, to round it all off, he probably decides to say this shit publicly because then he can use it as a manipulation technique more openly. He can manipulate the 25 year olds into believing he loves them for their soul when really he's preying on their inexperience and then he has the added bonus of kicking the 50 year olds right in the self esteem to make them more pliable too.

the manga "emergence" disturbs me with how its become a fun little meme. women even cosplay the main girl and say they feel bad for her, men joke about how it made them cry while they masturbated.
its a manga about a girl who gets a makeover and is then basically raped nonstop by every man she meets, is bimbofied (gets tan skin and blonde hair), gets pregnant, and is beated and raped more until she dies. and not your typical hentai "rape" where the girl says no while still showing signs of enjoying it. this is just pure misery and torture. its disturbing and anyone who enjoyed it for the plot is messed up. even some internet friends of mine who are women liked it and i just dont get it. this wasn't made as some deep study on why women are mistreated by men, this is rape and abuse porn made by men for other men.

I think it was a good hard look at the fact that many girls go through such a thing and Japan is largely responsible, as are other countries, of course. But she got into senkou (compensated dating) which turned out not to be what she thought at all. Senkou isn’t really a thing in America and other western countries- it’s underage prostitution and very against the law. Anyway, I liked it for its story and plot.

>>357229I binge read the whole thing months ago and it just depressed me, although I can see why it might stick with someone in a trainwreck sort of way. It definitely crept into my mind for the following week, not that cosplaying it is very excusable. That's almost praise for the subject manner.
That said if the main character was a man going through the same story but raped by women I'd be ON that shit. I kept thinking that while reading it too lol.

>>357237Quentin Tarantino is into feet, hence why he features so many bare feet shots in his film. It's safe to say if a man is repeatedly making horrific rape themed manga, that is something he is interested in. And if hes not interested in it, hes providing content out there for men who are interested in it.
America not having paid dating has nothing to do with this? We still have sex trafficking and underaged prostitution here in abundance.
This manga doesn't have a message, its torture porn. If you want dark material find stuff made by women, not men with rape fetishies.

i think you probably have to like rape porn to like this story. apparently it's resonated with one guy enough to do a fan comic where the girl gets a happy ending. i get feeling bad for her, but come on…

I possess no real outlet to express myself other then gaming/academics. I want to improve my social skills, and I'm always anxious/critical of myself. I hate being super curtious/polite to to others opinions and thoughts of me, I'm not really a highly sensitive person.. I have a special needs sibling, taught me to be kind/understanding to all individuals regardless.
I have social anxiety and it does kill convos, since I'm kinda introverted.

Inspired by the public transportation anon, I am here to scream about trams as well. Why the fuck do these moms with their trolleys think they have some sort of priority over everyone else? Here we have these little slots that have flip over seats, but they are mainly for one (1) trolley and the mom plus whoever the fuck wants to sit or stand there near those fuckers. Why, oh fucking why, do these trolley people think they can somehow fit 2 or 3 in those slots? (there are more than one per tram but we talking about one slot now).
They fucking barge in even tho they clearly see they cannot fucking fit in, they have a runny nosed brat with them too bc ofc they do, they are blocking the fucking doorway, and somehow they think they deserve a fucking seat as well.
Listen, bitch, I owe you nnothing. Why the fuck should I give up my seat after being on my feet the whole goddamn day? I only give my seat to old ppl just so that they won't fucking fall down and cause a fucking scene that would hinder my fkn commute yet here the fuck you are. Blocking my exit, looking at me like I need to get the fuck up. They also travel for free. I owe you nothing, nobody fucking owes you anything for deciding to take a load in.
There was a weekend where the subways didn't run so there were buses and trams covering for them and they fucking announced that PEOPLE WITH FUCKING TROLLEYS SHOULDN'T EXPECT TO FIT IN NOR THAT ANYONE GETS OUT FOR THEM, BC NO PAYING CUSTOMER SHOULD BE FUCKING EXPECTED TO DO THAT. The moms were fucking hurt, but like wtf. I've seen them travel in packs of three, blocking half of a fucking tram from exiting or entering, huffing and puffing when someone with a wheelchair tried to get into their DESIGNATED SPOT the mom was hoarding. They legit expect people to get off the tram or bus just so they can fit in, even tho I've had to stay out bc of them blocking the enterance SO MANY TIMES. aaaaaaaaaaaa. I am so fucking fed up with these fucking trolleys. Are they even called trolleys. Idk. I am so tired and angry. Not my fucking fault you decided to procreate.

Sometimes their kids look too old to be in such a stroller, too. The best is when you see a mom who’s wearing her baby or has a small, modest stroller and she just kinda smirks at them.

He's not re-engaging political talks or humanitarianism with Syria, he's merely throwing his bargaining chips away and throwing dirt on allies stationed there. We're losing our credibility as a reliable political actor by pulling out of Syria without taking into consideration the consequences that the vacuum of our absence will create. Yes, I agree that military intervention in foreign countries isn't very good but neither is blindly pulling out.
It was a political distraction endorsed by Kremlin interests.
>Mccarthyism and tensions with a nuclear nationSo the solution is to give power to Putin? Because that's exactly what he's doing in the political sphere with his policies. You do realize even hardline Republicans don't agree with Trump's relationship with Putin?
You realize there's an active investigation of Russian collusion and people who were members of his party and cabinet are starting to abandon ship?
>slowing down trade with China This is called a trade war.
This tariff action has negatively impacted exports of US farmers whose incomes rely on Chinese purchases of their crops, among other countries where they are now fined. Private businesses are less likely to generate jobs and more likely to lay off workers because of the cost of importing materials for their goods into our country.
Meanwhile Ivanka Trump is landing trademark deals with China, because that family hates what that country is doing to our planet so, so much.
Clearly these are not positive things.

Both of these actions had the approval of the Yaas Queen by the way.
Fuck off with that "muh Russian interests" or deminished US prestige trope. The only nations who stand to benefit from us continually being there to militarily strong arm the region are Israel and Saudi Arabia, the second and third worst political actors in the region besides us.

You can't act like you want peace when you cry for endless war, at least own up to your ambitions.
>muh hardline republicans want Cold War politicsThe only thing you've said that's kinda annoyed me so far is the repeated assumptions that I'm a republican. That I follow everything that the talking heads with the red ties say just because you follow every policy that democrats make blindly. I don't care what "hardline" republicans think, they're part of the same gang of neocons as Hillary Clinton and her ilk. What is a "hardline" republican anyway? The Republican Party in the US constantly gives concessions to democrats; they're essentially democrats with a decade delay in policy at this point. There is no hardline right wing party in the US willing to draw a line in the sand and fight for it.

Listen up shitlords. Just because a few radical left-wing freaks have been threatening violence against children doesn't mean its representative of the entire group.
It's not like famous leftist celebrities would put out an offer of a reward to the entire world incentivizing people to assault a child over a completely fabricated story of something that child did, even showing off the child's face and location in the offer.

>>359708Just my personal tinfoil: Poor healthcare coverage.
In most countries with universal healthcare, people can seek preventative care without penalties and nip most conditions in the bud by receiving treatment at a price that won't dive them into debt.
Medical debt de-incentivizes americans to seek preventative care and help for ongoing conditions. Often when they do have insurance, certain doctors and procedures still aren't covered which makes it even more difficult.
Mental healthcare is a joke and no one cares if kids display early signs of illness unless they come from a privileged background where they have the opportunity to be screened and their families can afford the therapeutic drugs.
Basically their conditions deteriorate until they get into a position where they must seek medical help.

Anyway, I'd disagree about plotlines being stale, the reason I watch anime is because it's stylistically refreshing and does some wacky worldbuilding. There is no 100% perfect show for me but Satoshi Kon's direction is brilliant:
https://youtu.be/oz49vQwSoTEFrom recent stuff I enjoyed there was MSG:Thunderbolt December Sky, Violet Evergarden (because I'm a sucker for slowburn emotions), Land of the Lustrious (now that's a really unpredictable one), 3-Gatsu no Lion was a perfect healing show…It's a big industry with lots of cheaply produced garbage but I like it when things step out of their comfort zone.

i have always been an anime watcher, and i feel like the easier it became to produce anime, the more bland and boring it got. it's also fairly mainstream now to like anime, just a little. but the popular ones that come from around 2008 and beyond are pretty dumb and childish, even for anime lol. anime in general is pretty weird and out-there, but that whole aspect of it was at least genuine in the 90s. now it's like anime tries way too hard to be ~quirky~. it's like the weird bitch in class that is bland and dull af but tries to come off as ~different and weird~. i think i definitely look a little weeby irl, but i avoid people i clock as weebs because they always have bad taste. i know i sound like a gatekeeper but i'm just sperging.

I fucking hate trashy money-grubbing harem isekai animes that take over the majority of every season, but even the art style and sceneries in those shows will ALWAYS be tons more pleasing to look at than 99% of western animated shows. I really have no idea why western cartoons are so hellbent on making everything as ugly as possible. And when they make something look actually nice, they're just ripping off the anime aesthetic such as Avatar and the Boondocks (which even had parts of season 3 animated by a Japanese studio). Anime often has limited animation and retarded in-between frames made in Korean sweatshops but at least it will never be as ugly and lazy looking as the regurgitated flash animation Cartoon Network shows.
When an anime series want to be adult, they can be REALLY adult with amazing visuals, world-building and character relationships. The pretentious people hating on anime because they saw the most stereotypical flavors of the month during their teen years need to ante up, if you're going to shit on an entire industry at least put some more effort into it than "pedophile /pol/fags like it and dragon ball fights are dum!!!".

I just can't imagine going there on the regular for lack of variety. One would
really have to enjoy the taste of that food, and at that I've just always found the seasoning underwhelming.
To give a similar setup and why it's successful: There's a poke bowl franchise in my area that sells either rice bowls or sushi burritos.
I have a choice of different bases (white rice, brown rice, quinoa, vegetable shreds), several kinds of proteins that are sometimes marinated, several different sauces to mix in or add on top, veggies and fruits that depend on seasonal availability, and different toppings.
I can go in there and order something that tastes unique and get a combo that I've never tried before. It's about as pricey as chipotle, but I feel satisfied that I got something pretty unique each time.

People who unironically believe stupid conspiracy theories are idiots.
Most conspiracy theories are based on factually incorrect evidence and can easily be debunked. But if you point that out to these psychos they just refute it all and say you're a government shill that's part of the conspiracy or the evidence you give was cooked up by the government to brainwash you kek
For example, the "crisis actor" theories. They're built entirely on the fact that people in photographs or videos look similar. It's clear that they aren't the same people, they just have similar looks.

I've watched quite a lot of "ask a person with X disability/disorder anything" videos, and some of them have the "would you get rid of your disability/disorder if you could"-question. Almost always people answer no, because "then I wouldn't be me, it makes me unique, it's a part of my identity :)", and I honestly think they're either coping and lying to themselves, or putting on some fake positivity front and lying to the viewers. I'm not saying you should feel bad about being disabled or wallow in self-pity, but if you honestly wouldn't choose to operate at the same mental and physical capacity as everyone else then you're just stupid.
I'm not neurotypical either, and sure, I don't feel bad about it, but if I was offered a chance to wake up the next morning and be completely cured, damn right I'd take it. I've been in special ed classes and groups for people with ADHD/ADD and autism, and I always felt like there's this weird attempt at glorifying disabilities in order to make people feel better about having them. Once some guy said the "what is normal anyways?"-thing that I've heard a million times before and I just couldn't help myself, I told him (in a bit more kinder way) that normal is when you don't need special groups, classes or coaches to function like a regular adult.
TL;DR: People who say they wouldn't "cure" their disabilities/disorders if they had the chance are either lying to themselves or other people.

>>362396i hate how low it is. it's very trashy on a number of levels, tbh. ariel is also the least tolerable princess tbh.
her wedding dress in the film was so infuriating, but i love that disney makes matters worse with this napkin bridal gown that takes all of the shortcomings from the film dress, and makes it 100x worse. all of ariel's merch is ugly too, except for baby ariel. i think disney secretly hates her.

>>362400>ariel is also the least tolerable princess tbh.This too. Another unpopular opinion I guess since she seems to be one of the more popular ones. She really comes off as a selfish dumbass in the original movie. Like she’s totally cool with never seeing her family again just to try to score with some guy that doesn’t even know she exist? I get that she’s a teenager but no one really questions or calls her out on her shit. Say what you will about Frozen but at least Anna’s stupid decisions bites her in the ass hard and almost gets her and her sister killed. Plus she had somewhat of an excuse for the fact that she was a dumbass (unlike Ariel).
People rag on the older Disney princess movies for the fact that they send bad messages to little girls but not a lot of people talk about The Little Mermaid. That movie has not aged well in some aspects.

When Cows or other "internet personalities" talked about on imageboards or gossip forums, assume everyone who gossips is insecure and hate themselves.

"If you feel alone because you don't have a relationship, it's because you aren't comfortable being alone with yourself."
Nah, fuck that. I love my alone time and have been in a long term relationship before to know the healthy balance of having one's separate spaces and hobbies.
It's called romantic companionship, and no amount of self reflection, distractions, friends, nor family can be a substitute. Some people want it, and some people don't–I want it.
For the people who want companionship but can't get it, have been denied it, or were forced to end it, it's brutally lonely. There shouldn't have to be a bullshit requirement of how alone someone has got to be to prove they're not desperate and are worthy of giving and receiving love.
I can't believe this toxic sludge still catches air like it says anything profound, or how people say this so blanket casual after a relationship ends when a person is justifiably upset and lonely.

>>364284If you are pretty or beautiful there are a lot of other in person jobs you can get. Things like becoming a receptionist, cocktail waitress etc at the low but respectable end, for instance. These jobs may not be sex work but they do prefer attractive candidates and a less beautiful but more competent worker doesn't actually bring more value to the employer than someone prettier. Then there are more explicitly looks-oriented jobs like being a model, of course. Obviously these dumpy cam girls can't get modelling gigs, but they're also not able to get those jobs like being a cocktail waitress or bartender in a nice place either. So there are a lot of alternative jobs these girls are effectively barred from, but in the world of camming they can find an edge for themselves.
At least that is my guess.

I don't know how to express my thoughts and feelings in a way that does not make me sound like an asshole but I REALLY hate cancer inspiration porn. Bullcrap like The Fault in Our Stars is bad enough, but at least it's just a tone-deaf fictional novel. What makes me even more mad is when real-life cancer victims are being presented (usually by cancer free people) as Incredible Role Models for having hope, trying to stay positive and not falling into depression. They are shown as a proof that life is beautiful and worth living, because if that lady who lost her parents, man, breasts and eventually life to cancer and kept saying she's happy throughout her chemo, than it means that happiness truly is just a matter of the right mindset and you, random normie, should be able to decide you are happy too! That's so gross. Sick people that are trying to cling to life are copeing the best way they can and they are as strong as they can be. Terminally ill people do not owe anything to the world. Some people manage to keep their head up, some people fall into depression and waste away. Deathly sickness is a nightmare in each case and I see nothing 'inspirational' in it. I also hate the expectation that a sick person must be inspiring, upbeat or happy or they are a bad sick patient. They deserve help and attention as much as the people who are able to keep an upbeat mask.
I hope that you guys can get what I mean. This is not against any ill people, just the way their narratives are being presented and sold (usually in a good faith, but still…). I hate the gross fascination people have with terminally ill cancer patients that are ~so happy, strong and optymistic~ despite fucking dying.

>>364981Thank you for hearing me out on this and mentioning the book - haven't heard about it and I would love to read it for a more 'real' look on living with cancer.
My rant was
triggered by reading bits and pieces of a book combining blog entries and interview of a (sadly deceased) lady who helped create a NGO helping pacients with cancer. The book was published by a random tv journalist and it is so gross. Even though the writer lost her own friends and family to cancer, she was pushing so HARD the 'uwu beautiful manic pixie cancer girls! such inspiration, much happiness, wow'.
Another thing that irks me is that while I think that it's great that the woman who the book is about achieved great things for others suffering with cancer, can't help but feel that it was easier for her since she had some media connections from the start, via her husband (who later on made a movie about their relationship). And again, this is not against her (may her soul rest in peace), but her media persona was this beautiful, highly feminine woman that is writing a great blog, fighting for other cancer patients while being constantly cheerful and hopeful and inspirational.
I am very sad and disturbed reading about her painful experiences with cancer and her too early death, but my feelings are soured by being angry at how media spins those stories, how they obsess over those perfect cancer patients (who are always women, btw).

I have a soft spot for people, especially other women, who are obviously just hateful because they're mentally disturbed child abuse victims, like Azealia Banks and Emily Youcis. Both are creative women who have said some very foul, racist, misogynistic shit and rightfully been "cancelled" for it, but the pure crazy dripping off them and horrible backstories make it hard for me to take any of it at face value. I just can't see them the same way I see trash like abusive xxxtentacion, the Black Israelites, or actual Neo-Nazis/white supremacists like Dylann Roof. They're not comparable to high-functioning people who are actually fully lucid/self-sufficient and simply choose to be hateful. I also feel that people like Azealia and Emily get worse with their mental/verbal diarrhea because once they've slipped up, they have only two options. Either they must accept that they fucked up, let themselves suffer the consequences of giving into their mental illness, and earnestly try to get better, or just keep rolling with it, evade the impending wave of doom/self-loathing by running even farther into the shit and blood encrusted cave that got them into that mess to begin with, and surround themselves with people who will tell them all the things they said/did during their mental break are perfectly okay. The first option might be the best, but it's difficult even for "sane" people to acknowledge egg on their faces and take the L, let alone batshit insane, traumatized, hurting ones with fragile egos and distorted self-images.
Sometimes, it slips into wanting to WK these people, because I think it's obvious they're nowhere near stable enough to ever be taken seriously, but I know better. It's probably actually good for them to get dragged, so if that moment of clarity comes knocking, they'll at least have some way to navigate their way out. By being exposed people's complaints, they'll be able to get a sense for why their words/actions were wrong in the first place, and improve. I guess if Amanda Bynes can do it, so can they.
You can always see their hatefulness slip off in odd moments where they're being surprisingly pleasant or relatable, and it makes you want to root for them (until they disappoint you again, that is). The one time I personally draw the line is when they go on to abuse children and/or torture animals for fun.

>>366118>Take an hour out if your day to put on makeup and do your hairWtf is this nonsense? First off, it doesn't take a whole fucking hour to do your hair and makeup unless you're doing full on instathot looks and an elaborate style, like curling it or something. Makeup takes a few minutes if it's simple and appropriate for everyday wear, and as long as you washed your hair recently and styled it afterwards (eg blowdried it nicely, straightened it if necessary) it'll sit pretty as long as it's brushed. It takes 30 seconds to put in a bow or hairband or put it in a ponytail or bun or whatever, and even that is going above and beyond what is required to make hair look nice - loose hair is always pretty and doesn't look lazy.
I also don't see why makeup is even remotely necessary for looking put together and attractive. If you need it that badly, maybe you should put more effort into your skincare regime. As long as someone's skin is clear and healthy, it will look fine without makeup and nothing more is required for daily life.
I agree about clothes though… 'dressy' outfits often take less or equivalent effort than putting on a tshirt and jeans. My go to lazy errand running clothes are a summer dress and flats, only 1 item to put on vs 2, and I don't have to struggle to pull that shit over my fat thighs unlike jeans. It just takes more mental effort to come up with a nice outfit and a cohesive style for yourself, and to feel comfortable wearing it.

She looked a mess in the first promo (that blue lipstick will never be acceptable), but I think the live-action Starfire actually turned out pretty well.

>>367712On the topic of predatory women, I found this on a blog about Japan. Apparently, mother/son CSA/incest is relatively widespread in Japan (aka the exact same country behind loli shit, that didn't ban CP until 2015):
http://sakuramochi-jp.blogspot.com/2011/12/legal-motherson-incest-prevalent-in.html?m=1>A boy's whole future can depend on the senior high school he gets into. The mothers get into a psychological condition where they're aware that sexual urges can stop their children from studying and feel that they are the best option for countering the craving. Some mothers will do anything to make sure their junior high school sons pass the all determining entrance exams. Studies show that almost 80% of Japanese men report they have had some form of sexual contact with their mothers with most of the sexual contact between mother and son beginning at a very early age. A boys childhood in contemporary Japan, although somewhat more Western than that of other Eastern nations, still includes masturbation by mothers "to put them to sleep." Parents often have intercourse with their children in the same bed with them, and "co-sleeping," with mothers physically embracing the child, routinely continues until the boy is ten or fifteen. One recent Japanese study found sons sleeping with their mothers over 20 percent of the time after age 16. A recent sex survey reported "hot lines" of sexual abuse saying that mother-son incest in almost a third of the calls, the mother saying to her teenage son, "It's not good to do it alone. Your IQ becomes lower. I will help you, " or "You cannot study if you cannot have sex. You may use my body," or "I don't want you to get into trouble with a girl. Have sex with me instead."I doubt this is unique to Japan, it's really not as uncommon as society pretends. Women are often awful abusers, too, and it deserves to be called out. Women "as a whole" may be little bit better than men in this regard, but not by much.
Too bad men who were not abused will ignore it because it sates their gross fetishes, men who were abused will stay silent because non-abused men refuse to empathize, and women will ignore it for political reasons. At least most women will recognize that it's fucked up, though.

You may use my body," or "I don't want you to get into trouble with a girl. Have sex with me instead."And think it's not a fetishistic fanfic, you're a really retarded whore. Calling you out on your bullshit source isn't defending the abuse of boys.
No. 368731
>>368729That's often literally how abuse in a broken home with twisted family dynamics and no outside help/resources works. Stupid rationalizations left and right. More often, though, it's "I can do this to you because I'm your parent, and you are my property". I don't expect someone who yells about scrotes but calls other women "retarded whores" in the same breath to think of that, though.
Go talk about how child abuse is your fetish fuel elsewhere, freak.

The rest of that post is bullshit that ignores everything I said to insist claiming any mention of CSA on boys is "fetishistic" isn't retarded (along with unsubstantiated, zero-sourced claims about how abuse isn't real and must be a fanfic), but also trying to attack me for not being upset about the same art you tried to WK by accusing me of being
triggered by. I'm not "projecting", either, considering yo were the only one to talk about how "fetishistic" the article was. It's like if someone linked an article about little girls being abused, or child marriage in some cultures, and some sweaty neckbeard creep tried to downplay it by comparing it to whatever fanfictions he avidly reads after randomly accusing someone of being mad about some ryona picture.
Goodbye, femdom-anon and/or closeted pedo. I'm sorry I didn't ignore that female abusers exist in reality so you could have a hugbox. Keep fighting the "good" fight. Can't wait for your "not that anon!!!" reply and cheap insult in your desperation to get the last word in.

The whole thing of men commenting "This is a trap" under any picture of a female cosplayer, or just any attractive woman, is so tired. It's not even funny, and if I were in those women's shoes, it'd make me uncomfortable, like they're saying I resemble a man in some way. It's like chasers (aka gay/bi men) are trying to force their fetish to be mainstream.
The most annoying thing is, we all know exactly what 99.9% of "traps" really look like. They need to stop deluding themselves.

Here's an actual unpopular opinion. I don't get why people think upper middle class parents suck at parenting or are automatically shit parents because someone in the family makes money. Not to say that trauma can't happen because you're rich but I feel like people imply that all rich people must be doing something shitty. Most of my classmates had parents that were things like doctors, lawyers, and professors, things that are basic professional jobs.
Another unpopular opinion: Outside of computer-relating things and some STEM stuff, most people with autism are not particularly talented. We hear about the savants but people never think of the autists with no financially useful talents who are stuck underemployed and unemployed for most of their lives. Even in STEM getting successful in academia or the industry means being able to work with other people well. Just annoyed at all the internet autists online who insist that they are so much more interesting and talented than everyone else.

Also just because you share the same interest with someone doesn’t exactly mean you're going to get along and be bffs forever.

No. 369534
>>369502I'd disagree, in the case of women. Being just a bit overweight usually doesn't negatively impact the health of women at all, unless they are unhealthy to begin with. 17-18 BMI range is low enough for some women to start losing their periods.

Ok maybe I’m stupid, but I think Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire are extremely overrated as both a television show and fantasy series. I’ve read most of the books, seen pretty much all of the HBO series except for a few minor episodes here and there, and I do read theories on the ‘end game’ and try to understand the major plot points and George’s pathos, so I’m not just drinking the haterade to be cool. I really want to like it, as I’m a fantasy fan (or I used to be, kind of bored with the genre lately) and am always looking for books that challenge my perspectives. But…
>not a big fan of HBO’s glitzy Hollywood treatment, kind of ruins the atmosphere of the books
>the acting from some of the ‘stars’ leaves a lot to be desired, with Emilia Clarke, Kit Harrington, and Sophie Turner continuously being amongst the weakest in my opinion
>D&D really botched S7 in terms of quality and I expect S8 isn’t going to get better, but one can hope
>people who strictly watch the show always seem to shun the books, so it’s difficult for them to understand some of the mythology and history of the story and the greater implications of what it all means
>you can tell George is frustrated to some extent with how the show has effected the way his story is being told, and I’m starting to wonder if his not finishing/publishing the final books is a consequence of that
>the fandom is toxic and there’s a slight misogynistic strain to how many of the women are viewed on the show since they aren’t your stereotypical fantasy females
>HBO made the show unnecessarily gorey and soft core pornograhic to appeal to normies who would normally avoid the genre
>whereas violence and sexuality in the books was always treated with gravitas in context of the history and beliefs of the era
>the lack of ambiguity in the portrayal of magic and the Others/WW leads me to believe that D&D are steering towards more of a black and white, us vs them ending with lots of shock deaths because they’re not very creative without any source material

does require at least
some intelligence (unless you are very rich). I mean you have to take SAT/ACT and apply which usually entails having good grades, be involved outside of school, and write a decent essay.

No. 369724
>>369624Not really. Even just going to a highly ranked uni and being utterly average might open doors for you that wouldn't be available to the top student at a community college. It's shitty, but that's how it is. Plus, outside of your local job market, universities have their own opportunities like research projects, clubs, organizations, etc. I studied both in community college and university, and there's a huge difference in the kinds of things offered outside of the actual classes.
>>369693I don't really think you could be dumb as bricks but work hard into being successful at a competitive university. Even the "intelligent but lazy" types struggle in these places.
>>369686Going to CCs first is cheaper and imo a good idea, but apparently some people struggle getting into universities (esp competitive ones). Is easier to get into a competitive uni from high school than it is to transfer into one. Plus, ime, there's a difference in rigor between CC and uni, that even for the basic stuff you might be better off starting at uni from first year. Def depends on the uni/CC. Also, I don't agree with being smug about it. Imo some people are more successful in CC and there's nothing wrong with that.

>>369728No, but you're basically saying "Bill Gates dropped out of college, take that you smug university students you will
never be as smart as him!" As far as being intelligent vs being a hard worker, the two aren't mutually exclusive. If you want to go to top universities like Harvard, Yale, Princeton, etc. you have to be both.
Bill Gates is an anomaly, and I'd wager that the number of people who go to four-year universities and end up very successful is a lot higher than the number of people who go to two-year universities and end up very successful. At the end of the day people who have bachelor degrees make more money and are employed at a higher rate than people with associate's degrees.

Like, yes, there are few professors that teach in Ivy Leagues schools that I'd love to have (Jameson, Rosalind Krauss…) but I'm still so glad that getting at least one degree (and now in the process of getting a second, albeit not at uni) was always financially possible for me even though I'm broke.
No. 369776
>>369624I don't know about how it works in the USA but in my country going to our equivalent of a community college is often seen as not enough by itself to get a nice career (as opposed to a nice job), but it's a nice way of getting internships as soon as you start studying after high school and you can keep studying to get a bachelors degree.
If you get a job as soon as you get you're done with the equivalent of community college, going to college is a better option if you want to be able to evolve in your career and get high positions in a company faster.

do look like brainlets. I would presume if they had anything valuable to say on the matter they would have.

In my original post much earlier, I was expressing the frustration I feel when I see someone makes a point (that is correct or incorrect) and nobody can be assed to form a rebuttal. They want to sperg instead.
In threads that call for more than stupid one liners to explore a subject it is not unreasonable to expect proper dialog. Having a hard time understanding your interest in two anons' personalities rather than acknowledging the actual point they're making. You're straight up armchairing at this point based on some career anecdote…
No. 370428
>>370423Maybe we came to different conclusions on that note.
I think the person in question brought a mixed bag of opinions that vary in validity and they remained pretty civil so it's unwarranted to go apeshit imo. The way they expressed thoughts seemed to mimic someone else (or the same person) earlier in the most recent thread that had hangups about digesting radfem as a whole. I think it was probably a fencesitter that angry anons didn't know what to make of. Moderates and fencesitters often get branded as the opposite camp when they're trying to talk to people with a radical ideology. Nuance got lost a bit once people got tired of trying to reason with the anon and the anon seemed rather unwilling to budge. I can see how emotions can run high when that happens but it's a failure in conversation when it happens.
We could even be talking about different people because I wasn't thinking of a single occurrence in my initial post though I did have the most recent thread in mind as well, I am pretty sure I've seen discourse of similar nature there before.
No. 370445
>>370428You can usually tell the difference in intent by the amount of compromise a person uses in their posts.

The fencesitter (I presume they are one still) should be willing to grant some points or at least steer the debate towards new ground (not move goalposts but transparently bring up other topics and keep everyone on the same page) so we can continue to keep shit constructive and civil.
I don't mean to absolve the person who was questioning stuff of responsibility. They seem to have failed the burden of remaining intellectually honest.
I'm sure the hostility is keeping LC free of scrotes and the like. I understand it's part of self-defense. I don't think it was deployed for a good enough reason in that particular instance. I found that the anon was able to budge on some points and not on others.

It's more like they stopped posting after strict and swift enforcement of bans and deletion of their posts. Maleposting and raids were HORRIBLE here over the summer and even for the past couple years. Old administration felt there wasn't a need to delete their posts and it took hours for a maleposter to get a redtext ban, allowing bait to provoke replies for hours or days in some cases.
Honestly if not for the heavy moderation we'd still get shitposting scrotes in here shitting the place up like usual.

I know I try to avoid nitpicking looks these days too. Anyone here will tell you that cows and flakes are posted here for reasons, usually due to their flawed personalities or something horrible they did. Then it seems like any type of jab towards their looks stems from the already soiled perception that they are bad people. Like being ugly on the outside as well as the inside.

Not to be an anti-intellectual dullard, but I hate how verbose academic/analytical texts can be. It's a waste of time.
>‘In retrospect and because of radical shifts in historical perspective, altered standards of political morality and new methods of reading, it is now possible to see that the fictions’ ironic strategies and alienation techniques do act to redraw the conventional picture of the world, since through demystifying enshrined notions about the unassailable nature of existing social institutions and standards of conduct, the texts confront readers with unacknowledged and discomforting aspects of reality. By transforming the characteristic genres of colonial fiction into vehicles for reflecting on the precepts, values and habits of thought native to these categories, with the narrative material meeting audience expectations and the narrative mediations defamiliarising conventional perceptions, disjunctions between the established morality and moral principle are displayed, while ethical absolutes are revealed to be pragmatic utilities for ensuring social stability and inhibiting dissent. These innovations from within the forms of the given mode produce a contrapuntal discourse where the authentic rendering of imperialism’s dominant ideological categories is undercut by illuminations of the misrecognitions and limitations in a form of cognition which saw the world in black and white and admitted only a restricted area of reality to its purview.’
This is just a long-winded way of saying "This text I'm commenting on challenges morals, society and really makes you think". Some of these sentences are just the same thing rephrased.
Shut the fuck up. Stop dragging things out just because you can't think of anything pointed or intriguing to say. It's like you're a kid trying his darndest to meet the word count. I can't believe I read this bullshit. At least shitposts and copypasta are funny.

>>370783>It's like you're a kid trying his darndest to meet the word count.It truly is this though. My capstones for undergrad and my thesis for grad absolutely had to be so many words, and while professors were adamant about the length, they also hated stretching the verbosity of sentences as well. What wound up happening was a lot of pointless filler us students would have to inject in our narratives. Because having any kind of paper short and succinct wasn't as intellectual as these droning, run-on sentences I guess. Always felt like I had to perform like a monkey.
Then, one professor got mad at me for "not writing in my own voice" despite years of academia telling me that my own tone in my writing wasn't as up to snuff. But that's another thing–rules varied from prof to prof so I had to adjust my writing to every class based on which prof expected what from me.
And btw I absolutely hated coming across passages like yours in journals when I was looking for sources for my own papers because I would have to sit there and take extra time to rewrite their sentences just so I could think clearly about what they were saying. It's such a waste of time.

The absolute unnecessary sexualisation of Samus Aran as Zero Suit Samus damaged the whole image the Metroid series. Back in the day I always imagined Samus as some bad ass bounty hunter that doesn't need to show her face and gets shit done than being some futuristic blonde sex doll that has to wiggle with her ass in front of the camera to gather to the absolute lowest of the fanbase. She was never aimed to be all that and it still makes just so angry at times when I come across some gross fetish porn of her bc of the tight suit.

>>370935Hard to swallow pill right there.
The way I got to self-love is focusing on the amount of acceptance and respect I'm willing to offer others and to slowly apply the same ideas to myself. I had to sit down and rationally analyze my own behavior and think of whether I'd accept it if someone else was doing it. Went from there. I became my own best friend and used my depersonalization symptoms to my advantage during my mental health lows. I even petter my own head and began to talk to myself as a "friend".
Practically speaking, I had to adjust my ideology and behavior so there is as little difference between them as possible. I had to change my ideals to fit what I am actually known to do in some cases, so guilt goes away. I had to fix my behavior so I can be the person I would like to be in other cases, so I can feel pride.
>>370949NTA. Maybe this is wrong but in my experience one can give another person all the tools they used to "fix" their issues but the person hearing it won't be able to actually deploy those tools. Getting over shit largely happens as an internal decision on what the "right time" to do it is. Whatever theory you hear from others won't actually penetrate your mind and force you to action until
you decide it's the right time for you to change your narrative and be something else than miserable. I've seen this so many times. The narrative changes at a time that has nothing to do with anything external or any advice given.
Still rooting for you though.

Absolutely retarded, misogynistic men don’t care about the quality of women’s work, just because you yourself haven’t faced sex based discrimination doesn’t discredit the overwhelming amount of women that have. Want an in your face example of this? Comfort women in China. They’re women who are already overqualified for the jobs they apply for, in STEM, graduate top of their classes, but know what they get to do all day?? Tend to the man children in the workplace, get them meals, drinks, make sure they’re not stressed - and these are women with honours and masters.

A woman who doesn't feel this pressure probably is undeniably great at the work, but women in this position tend to conflate that experience with that of the average worker, but really means those who value her work, which is men who are also at the top with her.

>>371507Not OP but the government is absolute ass to begin with. But that doesn't ignore the fact that women are basically seen as damaged goods after giving birth to a child.
Look at labor mortality rates in the US compared to other countries. It's absolute horseshit that such a 'superpower' of a country can't take a look at the mortality rates and see an issue. We not only treat women like shit but also the fathers who could take some time off of work too. Studies have shown that increased time off for maternity/paternity leave results in better work performance after the moms/dads get their time off.
As for treatment of pregnant women, I've seen women say that people only gave a shit about them when the baby was inside of them. Once the baby is out and labor is over, doctors are quick to chalk up symptoms of post-birth infection as natural postpartum bleeding.
Even single mothers are regarded as 'damaged goods' in the dating world with 'baggage' while single fathers are seen as admirable gentlemen with precious kids. I know these stereotypes typically come from opposite genders but even the sheer image of being a mom is mocked. Take the popularization of mocking stupid moms on Facebook, the common soccer mom jokes, the popularized trope of women trapping a man with children, and on another hand, the sexualization of attractive mothers known as MILFs. Not to mention the shame women have been conditioned to have with their postpartum bodies–I have to laugh at disgusting men who complain over their wives' fading attractiveness due to the shock of seeing their bodies after birth…after their wives gave birth to their offspring.
Point is, American society has conditioned us to shame mothers over again and over again. I know moms are individuals that can be shitty people of course. My own mom suffers from NPD herself. I know stupid people have kids all the time, unfortunately.
But as someone who wants children it's so fucking shitty to think of this being my future. Yes I will love my children but it's hard to not self-loathe just hearing how much disgust men have for women 30+ and god forbid if they're mothers. It's hard to not feel depressed thinking that nobody will give a shit about me after I give birth and instead I'll probably be the subject of mom jokes behind my back because kek moms are so fucking stupid~

Basically my cousins on my mom's brother's side have always outcasted me, even though I was made to appear lovey on holidays and birthdays which were the only occasions I'd ever see them. They were several years older than me which is why I dismissed it when I was little, but clearly even as an adult they have no interest in getting to know me, and nor I to them quite frankly.
That side always had some weird family gossip about me for some reason even though I'd never done anything wrong to them, and they barely paid attention to my mom and grandma except if they needed money.
One of my cousins is getting married this year and she chose her sister and other cousin to be her bridesmaids, and I'm the only blood relative left out. Not that I care because I hate bridesmaid shit, but it just goes to show how I'm clearly not in their circle. My mom is trying to force me to go with them on their bachelorette party and I'm saying no. We're not close, and it's awkward.

Jill threads are awful.
Don’t get me wrong Jill is really annoying and some anons do make good points, but the amount of blogposting and nitpicking in the threads is ridiculous. Is pointing out every single flaw of a costume she made and calling her ugly or fat for 1000th time really that necessary or milky? C’mon. Her confetti fb club is depressing but their thread is a lot better imo.

>>371967Confetti club is good shit, even better because you don't need to follow Jill to get into it.

>>371712It’s heartbreaking to me reading how you guys are treated by your families. I’m so sorry this happens to you all.
I have a similar issue with my aunt, though.
She’s never liked me, and continually projects her issues onto my mother and I and is a constant shit stirrer and master manipulator.
She used to pit my cousin against me when I was a little girl by emotionally manipulating her since we are both only children and were raised like sisters. This was despite the fact that everyone in my family would bend over backwards for my cousin, she lived with my grandparents up until we moved out in 2015 to remodel the house we were living in at the time. She used her insecurities against her, told her things that clearly were contradicting the reality of the situation, and made my life up until recently a living hell.
I dropped out of high school to help care for my dying grandmother, but this got manipulated into me getting money (never got a dime, and didn’t care) and other cruel bullshit, like that I was keeping my grandma away from my cousin deliberately. I was only doing what no one else wanted to, since everyone was avoiding her up until the last day that she died.
Now I’m living with my grandfather and mom and going to school, trying to work, and here comes my aunt with her schizo fantasies whispering lies to my grandfather that I’m unhappy and trying to get me thrown out of the house even though I clean, cook, work, and go to school, unlike her and my cousin. All they do is blow what little money they have on drugs and food and other shit they can’t afford, but of course my mother and I are monsters and we should move even though we don’t have similar lifestyles. I started confronting her about her shit stirring and we got into a big fight in October because of it, but I’m honestly so sick of her cruelty and psychopathic tendencies and I’m not going to go along with the idea that she’s innocent and everyone is hurting her.
She’s had the whole family embroiled in her stupid war on the US government and the USPS where she was working for nearly 5+ years now, and I don’t feel an ounce of pity for how her superiors are treating her because I know what she’s really like. Of course my grandfather believes her side of the story and plays along with her pity party that again, she’s an innocent victim of OTHER people, and not her own manipulation and deceptive characteristics.
I have never loved my aunt and never will. In fact I despise her. I’ve only tolerated her because my grandparents pitied her and no one really believed me as I was a child when I used to complain about her and my cousin bullying me. I hope I can move away and never see her or my cousin ever again.

>>371967The jill threads have become so awful. But imo not exactly for the reasons you stated. Yeah the nickpicks and weight chat is boring. But it happens when the milk is slow.
What really grinds my gears is all the ex-fans in the thread. She does something slightly not horrible and they all go "Woo!! Go jill we are rooting for you!!"

Kill La Kill is not good or deep. The only things I can recommend to it are the animation and fight scenes otherwise it is hella overrated.

Madoka Magica is also not good. I hated their squished little faces and the pacing wasn't good. And why does anyone care about Mami? She barely fucking existed.

i think people, especially asians should sit the fuck down when people get tattoos of asian words on them, wrong or not. especially with shit like pic related when english is the most widely spoken language in the world.

>>372129I really enjoyed it for the mixed media artstyle, it’s one of the few anime’s that have really stuck with me over the years
But to each their own, I can see why not everyone would like it

>>372129I liked it when it premiered. Then it started getting ridiculous with milking the series. There didn't need to be a bunch of different shows or games. The final straw was the stupid Rebellion movie that shit up the entire plot just because of fanservice. If you try to criticize the show or outcome of the movie, people immediately jump on you because "muh symbolism".
>>372212The mixed media artstyle isn't even a Madoka thing. The group responsible for that animation is called Gekidan Inucurry. They've been doing art in this way for a LONG time and have done intros and outros to anime that came out before Madoka. Pic related is from Maria+Holic's ending.
Honestly that's the thing that pisses me off the most about Madoka is anytime something Inucurry is posted or an artist takes inspiration from them, IMMEDIATELY people comment saying it's "like Madoka."

>>372187Well just like most people with extreme views on things, anon's real issue is that they can't stand someone from a different walk of life having a different opinion on things and doing something they don't personally like. I wouldn't get one myself but tattoos can be ugly but there's also some beautiful ones especially bigger pieces and I can appreciate that.
>people getting tattoos give no fucks that random people think they're ruining their skinThey don't.

>>371967That costume isn't even bad. All cosplay looks that tacky to me and they usually have some proportional and logical accuracies when compared so autistically to the source.
Willing to bet real dollars a lot of the nitpickers in her threads are weeb cows themselves.
>>372126Correct. It's a classic case of "subverting tropes but also actively participating in them". The show is okay tier but the fandom makes me actively hate it bc they act like it did anything revolutionary.
>>372129Also correct. The art is ugly though I like the witches, the story isn't that interesting and the characters are just plain except for muh edgy Homura. People love to deny that Homura was big gay for Madoka too which is really stupid bc it's pretty clear that she has a romantic obsession w her. Men like this show bc it's entry level edgy mahou shoujo for them.

people who keep trying to get in touch with people they went to high school with after graduating are just sad.
i understand trying to find old elementary school friends for the nostalgia factor, but just trying to connect with people you didn't even get along with when you even had the chance is retarded.
also people who have the same group of friends from high school years after graduating are permateens. one or two friends is fine, but your whole entire old crew? nah.
