Maybe i phrased the op badly, but I just find that i find a lot of people with that certain ethnicity attractive, by coincidence. Obviously I date outside of that preference. I try to be careful about this, I live in an Eastern euro country where people fetishise women from here a lot, so i certainly know the feeling. That's why when I noticed the pattern in myself, i freaked. Plus, its only the physical features of the type i find attractive, not the ""idea"" behind it (as with asian women being subservient or korean men being shy/femmy/nice). As >>541116 put it, I just find that an ethnicity has a lot of my type.

I think he's just an idiot who uses bad logic. He must think dark circles=tired/old/unhealthy, so if he leaves his undereye area white=energetic/youthful/healthy. That's the only reason why I can think he would keep that look. It's probably the same logic he uses for that overblown toupee.

Why do spray tans make you appear orange instead of.. tan? I know it's already a dumb question, but my even dumber question is why they can't balance the colour out with green, let's say?

Have a weird question: Let's say a dude went out on a date with some girl that seemed pretty normal. It was just one date. He lives alone. She needed a ride to work the next day so he allowed her to sleep on his couch for the night while he was in bed. If he woke up to her entering his bedroom with a condom and nearing his bed and asking him repeatedly if you "want to" and he doesn't, if fact he keeps scooting off the bed until this person has him near the wall…
And he didn't say yes. This experience brings up a time in the past when he was in fact raped by a girl back in high school and he keeps thinking "is this really happening again" through the action… he enters her a few times as she wants, then her alarm goes off, and its now time for her to go to work…its over.
What is that?
He didn't say yes to the act and that person kept pressuring. He was molested as a child and raped as a young adult and suddenly this person decides to corner him.

Tik Tok literally filters out broke, disabled and/or "ugly" people from recommendations.
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2020/mar/17/tiktok-tried-to-filter-out-videos-from-ugly-poor-or-disabled-users
>TikTok’s moderators were instructed to exclude videos from the For You feed if they failed on any one of a number of categories, the documents show. Users with an “abnormal body shape (not limited to: dwarf, acromegaly),” who are “chubby … obese or too thin” or who have “ugly facial looks or facial deformities” should be removed, one document says, since “if the character’s appearance is not good, the video will be much less attractive, not worthing [sic] to be recommended to new users.”

Yes, I know how ignorant it sounds. I genuinely don't understand how he must have felt and I feel bad that questions like that even come into my mind. Even when he was actually raped back in high school and the girl kept him from leaving her house to get to his car until she "got what she wanted" as she said. It was horrifying to hear but a small part of my brain asked, "why didn't you just run away?" I would never ask him that and feel bad for that question even crossing my mind. It's like it's difficult for me to believe men can be assaulted in that manner because of their physical strength. If he wasn't drugged or incapacitated in some way, what's stopping him from escape?
It's awful, and I know that it's ignorant and immature. Just not sure how to shake the idea.

No. 541808

Well if it came to her basically cornering him and forcing herself on him his only choice would probably be hit her ou push her away, I don't think a disgusting girl like that'd stand being rejected. So he probably would be the one going to jail since he can't hit a girl even when she's trying to rape him. Not everything revolves around brute force, you know. I think having an older brother made me more empathetic to men than most anons in this site so if a bitch tried to do something like that to him I'd fucking stab her.

I've had this issue after CSA, my inability to communicate 'no' as an adult has left me feeling as though I've been assaulted by quite a few men but it's my own issue of being too passive.

Yeah, it was a bit mind-boggling for me to grasp that too. If you're an adult, how could this happen again after it happened to you once in high school. Also, unfortunately it wasn't just once incidence of childhood sexual abuse. It was 2 or 3 baby sitters/older males. I'm confused as shit because I know that it's influenced his life and these other incidences he's had. He's also been used and deceived by several people throughout his life.
I just don't know what to think or do. It all sounds so horrible but he seems fine most days. I guess i'm just honestly confused.

Sorry for double post but I think the thing that confuses me most is how he deals with things. I had to speak to him about that one particular encounter with the girl because he said there was a possible tear in the condom so I wanted to know if he could have gotten her pregnant or got an STD test done. He answered all of that calmly saying made sure nothing resulted from that and made it not sound like a big deal at all, but it sounded concerning. So I asked him a few days later about what he thought that situation even was because it sounded awful and I was confused why he didn't see that. He freaked out after that and said he didn't want that to happen and how it reminded him of the time he was raped in highschool and how he kept scootching away from this girl that kept asking and asking. He says he hates to think about it and that I made him dig it up by asking questions.
I feel bad, but I just needed to know.

I believe him like 99% but the 1% of doubt is really eating at me. But no anon, this was his timeline:
-As a child <7 yrs old, was molested by 2 or 3 babysitters which were older men
-In high school he went on a date with a girl. said he wasn't attracted to her once he met her in person. it was badly snowing outside so he was invited into her house. Once inside, when he was ready to leave, she told him he could not leave, made him feel trapped by locking the door, and told him he needed to give her what she wanted before he could leave. He explained the situation to friends in more detail which outright called it rape except for a few guy friends who either said men can't be raped or congrats on getting laid.
Then about 2 years ago, the situation i described above happened.

I really care about this guy but I'm trying to figure out why there is this unsettled feeling I'm having about everything.

No. 541878

I'm equally confused, I'd be questioning anyone with quite so many incidents with seperate offenders in their life, and you say he's often been victimised by people in non-sexual ways too. Are his perceptions ok? Is he prone to making up stories? Is he getting therapy for these events? The two seperate female offenders is what's really rare here.

Has anyone ever dealt with postponed concerts with tickets bought through Ticketmaster? Were your old seats honored?

I bought tickets to my favorite artist months ago, but the concert was postponed. Ticketmaster changed their ToS to not allow refunds but I’ve seen stuff of people advocating for buyers to file a claim with our banks anyway (something about the ToS at point of sale and any changes after that need not apply, something something, banks hopefully won’t be shitheads about it). I’m wondering if I should contact my bank to attempt getting a refund. I’m certainly not hurting financially at the moment, but an extra $200 saved away for food or other necessities certainly doesn’t hurt to have right now. I’m just a bit on the fence because, well, this is one of my favorite artists and the tickets were difficult to get and I scored pretty decent seats. Should I trust Ticketmaster/the artist to follow through on their word or should I just say fuck it and try to get a refund and suck it up if they do hold a concert later on that I probably won’t be able to get good tickets for?

I have a weird problem, my friends always talk about how a big dick is very satisfying and blah blah but even an average sized one hurts me, It makes the entrance of my vagina feel like it’s burning and that my cervix is being stabbed so I avoid dating or sex, my ex had a very big dick and I only enjoyed sex with him despite it hurting because I loved him so much tho my screams would be of pain and he’d think it was because of pleasure (it was enjoyable tho but only because of the connection with the person I have loved the most ) the most enjoyable sex I’ve had has been with guys who have a 4 inch and I am frustrated because I feel broken that I can’t really enjoy sex. I’m not even being like omg my vagina is so tight !!! It always hurts, no. but I’m really concerned, even at gyn visit the speculum feels like a torture machin and that my insides are being torn apart but there’s no anatomical problem or illness otherwise. I also don’t think it’s vaginismus because I don’t clench my muscles. I just think my vagina has a short cavity length. I can touch my cervix with my ring finger even when ovulating (it’s supposed to be higher when ovulating, more difficult to reach). To be honest tho in all of my sex life I’ve probably had sex maybe a 60 times (not 60 people) in the length of 6 years, I go through long times without sex (usually a year or more). I have to ask does anyone else have a problem like this or had it when inexperienced? I want to know if this will go away by having sex regularly often.

There is a huge spectrum of vaginismus though, some people can’t even insert a q-tip and for some people it’s just a pain/burning during sex. You also wouldn’t necessarily know if you’re clenching your muscles with vaginismus. I think that’s probably most likely what you’re experiencing?

in turkey it's:
- long hair on women is seen as beautiful
if you have short hair (shorter than shoulder length) then people are most likely to think that you're lesbian or assume you're some sort of satanist (speaking from my own experience here rip)
- also most men seem to melt when they see blonde women. it's so weird but they immediately think a woman with blonde hair is someone who's willing to fuck any guy
- to be "balık etli" which basically translates to "fish meat" but it means curvy/chubby figure. if you're skinny then a lot of the elders will most likely comment on your body and tell you to eat and "get fat" because they think being curvy/chubby means you're wealthy and "can afford food to feed yourself" and it's the "ideal figure any mother should have"
- no make up at all
- being light skin but with a bit of tan, i guess
if you're dark skinned then people are most likely to assume you're one of the gypsies who live here and they are seen as "trashy" and "ghetto"

And they constantly try and push my buttons just to get a rise out of me by jokingly saying blatantly sexist stuff. I don't consider myself a tumblrina by any means, but they seem to view me as one. And I won't lie, over the years, it's finally starting to genuinely hurt. I always try to avoid giving into my feelings but they kind of steamroll over me a lot. They speak so quickly and change debate topics so rapidly that most of the time, I don't even have the opportunity to think of a response to the points they make.

And responding to the question,, I actually find them pretty unattractive. They are my boyfriend's good friend, and while my boyfriend holds many feminist beliefs himself, he always just shrugs off whatever shit they say as a joke. Even when they stuff like, "it's good that you're the pretty one in the relationship" to me and other comments about my appearance. It's all a joke to them.

I strongly relate to this, and have had the same experience when I try and explain it to someone! It’s like my anxiety just reaches a peak where I can’t feel anxious anymore, and then it just turns into total detachment because nothing matters, nothing is real etc. It makes it so I’ll be extremely anxious over a pretty low consequence and mundane thing where I’ll feel physically ill but with things that are genuinely a huge deal and could have a significant consequence I’ll have that detachment/nihilism thing and just not process it I guess. I think it’s been useful because sometimes I’ve managed to avoid crippling anxiety in genuinely stressful situations but bad because sometimes it’s lead me to take things too lightly and I’ve misjudged the severity and probably would have benefited from being more worried.

But again, what am I supposed to do when my friend just told me that her boyfriend ignored her on social media and everywhere else for two weeks because of some minor shit, and she begs him for support while she has to deal with her family that tries to illegally evict her? What do I tell my other friend, who cries and tells me that she already knows that her gf doesn't respect her and stays with her for her own comfort? When I had a similar situation in my life nobody knew about it, but if I did tell anyone, I'd probably ask for advice. In these situations I see that my opinion is unwelcome, but if I say "oof girl, that sucks" it seems that it's not enough? How do you talk with people in shitty relationship?

How should I approach my job about possibly extending my contract for a few more months? Should I even bother? I'm a temp front desk employee for my company (the only front desk employee, really) and was hired for 10 months, with the possibility of extending it an extra two months for a full year, but nothing more after that (don't want to give me benefits). That was all fine and dandy and I knew these terms when I agreed to take this position, but of course no one knew covid was going to screw all of us over. I don't really want to stay here long term, nor do I want their health insurance, but I do need the pay right now. Several of my coworkers have tried to nudge the HR director about it but none have really gotten a response (one of them offered to talk to one of the execs about it, who happens to be close to the president).

Should I email the HR department (only two people) and say something like "Hey, my contact is ending, I know it was agreed that I could only stay for a year max but is there a possibility of extending it for a few months?" I did hear the HR girl say that they did once keep a temp employee that they really liked for a long term (in a different department) by hiring her as a freelancer so they could get away with not giving her benefits. This person wasn't in the admin department and was in a department that frequently hires freelancers anyway. Would it be weird of me to propose this to them?

radical feminism has a systemic analysis of women's issues while liberal feminism an individualist aproach, so the latter gels better with a neo-liberal consumerist society that is fine with women working, getting divorced, getting an abortion, doing porn, prostitution, make-up, accepting trannies, ect, since that all means more profit$ but doesn't want to hear anything about how its this current system itself oppresssing women rather than just not being able to fully participate in it

I'm sorry your friends are so blind. My own friend said she'll probably get back with the dude who cheated on her and I'm so sad. I try telling myself "I'm sure he's not that bad" but god my friend deserves so much better. I'm just throwing stuff out there, hope it can help. I know you're already doing what you can and I hope they realize their worth.

I don't know if you would consider these straight up abusive relationships, but if they keep ignoring you, giving direct advice to leave won't help and might push them away. Only they can decide they want to accept and are ready to leave.

If it hurts that much, you might just have to tell them not to bring up their relationship issues. If they keep using you as an outlet to vent, they might not realize how bad it is. Maybe you could ask if they'd want their friend or a daughter to be in the same relationship. Not wanting to hear about their relationship issues because they won't change it is understandable, but will hurt their feelings. Make sure they know you care and have their back, and continue to do your best to boost their self-esteem and help them in other ways.

Honestly being a foreigner and meeting other foreigners is a great way to immediately relate to a stranger. I also was living in a different country for a bit and I'd always start conversations with other foreigners by asking people where they were from, what their home country was like, why they came to this country, what they're studying or what their job is, etc. and more conversation will inevitably flow from that.

I know a girl who used to have a reputation for being a bit two faced, but mostly alright. She seems nice enough. Her friend tags her in a lockdown selfie thing where you post yourself without makeup vs in makeup.

She responds saying she's so mad at the friend for doing this but here we go….and she posts a "no makeup" selfie of her…..in less makeup than the one in makeup. She's still clearly got mascara, kohl eyeliner, foundation and a ton of filters slapped on. Everyone else involved in the tag posts genuine no makeup ones and she digs a bit for compliments.

Why do some girls do this? is it insecurity? it wasn't even a selfie she took during lockdown but one from a long time before. It got me thinking in general why there seems to be a trend for #nomakeup. I don't know why but I think it annoyed me at how put on it sounded that she was annoyed with the friend for tagging her but she goes and posts the same photo that she's posted before very happily.

Last night I was trying to go to sleep at around 3am. Usually I sleep at 12, but I was calling someone and wanted to stay up a bit later than usual. Anyway, by the time I get to bed and I'm laying down, I'm exhausted and my eyes feel sore and hurt to keep open; I can't stress how absolutely bone tired I felt, like I couldn't move an inch after I laid down. I'm about to pass out when all of a sudden my brain randomly makes me feel like I'm wide awake. I can't explain it, it was like an actual switch was flipped and it turned me back into 'day' mode. I sat up and didn't feel any drowsiness at all, it was the strangest thing I've ever felt (first time I felt it too) and I felt so disturbed by it I tried to force myself to sleep and it took me maybe half an hour to because I just wasn't tired. What was that?

That's also very likely and along the lines of most MTF narratives. I just think it's really weird that people abandon the most basic sense of pride/decency (also in real fucking life) just to "be" ~special~.

This is just me but that wouldn't guilt or manipulate me to do anything. I'd just feel bad for them that they feel that way about their relationship with me even though I don't think that way about them. If I've already tried to reassure them then I'd just let them have their feelings tbh.

But take it with a grain of salt because I've dealt with mentally unwell people all my life so things like passive aggressive social media statuses are nbd to me. Most healthy people who didn't grow up around toxicity would rather not handle it at all and cut the person out like a tumor, and that's what works for them.

So basically this guy my friend introduced me to was really getting along with me and he seemed like an OK guy so we exchanged our instagrams and continued talking for a few weeks until i had my "oopsie" aka told him one of my interests (which is kpop don't behead me pls) all casually without even getting into it (literally only said that i listen to their songs that's it) and he suddenly had this weird mental breakdown in my dms and started telling me how his ex gf also was into that and that she cheated on him and now he's broken and so i was like Wtf i am sorry i guess? and ended up apologizing like a doormat and then he stopped replying and started posting shit like that on his story like a teenager

Likely to be forgotten in a short amount of time at that. A clean and prepared death is a gift, and it hurts to know that so many people are robbed of that when they die tragically.

Celebrity deaths actually get less sympathy from me because of the fact that they likely had the best chances before death than any normal person, and that they won't be forgotten anytime soon like a normal person would. Maybe it's empathy fatigue, but it's like my brain assumes someone else has got the sympathy covered for a well known celeb so mine is better put towards someone else.

yes, the word that comes to mind is embarrassed. i always feel embarrassed, even after a positive interaction. i wish i could say we just need to be confident and be ourselves, but i no longer think it's that simple.
growing up i was really private and wouldn't reveal anything about myself lest i be made fun of or feel too vulnerable, then i couldn't take it and snapped and just started oversharing all my secrets and saying whatever i was thinking to my friends. sometimes it was great and it really felt like me and my friends were having real, raw conversations, but other times i would just say extremely cringe cow-like shit that i still regret to this day. especially since we CAN sometimes make people uncomfortable with what we share, it's not 100% in our heads. so it took trial and error of going between embarrassing myself and holding back for me to figure out how much i really want to reveal to people and the line between what felt honest and what just felt wrong. everyone has a slightly different line and i don't think you can find what yours is without testing it, and testing it means probably being mortified from time to time.

For me it was learning more about my medical and genetic background. I already tried to have partial custody relationship with my biological father but I noped when I was a preteen because he was scum through and through. What upsets me isn't the dead relationship, it's that I'll never know about a part of myself (ex. I couldn't even do a paternal haplogroup test for geneology on his side because women lack a Y chromosome). I wouldn't want to contact that bastard for questions even if I could, and I can't rely on what's now the 25+ year recount from my unstable mother. It sucks, makes me feel like a mutt sometimes, not in a derogatory way but like a "Oh what am I? Who half knows!" kind of way. Seriously if your family bothered to make sure you knew where you came from and answered your questions don't take that for granted.

Would you say that GBA and PS1 games fall under the "retro games" category? I had a male friend who doesn't know jack shit about video games and parts of its industry yet pretending he does (he only really knows about LoL and a few Western games I'm not very familiar with, he started playing games kinda recently) saying that these games are old enough to be retro games and that they've been considered retro for a while now. Since I grew up playing video games as soon as I started learning how to read I remember these consoles and games being promoted as being "modern" and "brand new" but it's been a while since then so I'm not too sure anymore. I'd say if they're retro then they only became retro kinda recently but now I curious and I want more opinions.

PS1 maybe, GBA not really. GBA is part the Game Cube/Playstation 2/Xbox era nobody would consider retro in at least another 8-10 years. Gaming technology sort of peaked during that time and since then it's been mostly improved graphics but no big leaps like the PS1 to PS2 or GB to GBA was. I believe we're still living in the evening hours of that era while everything preceding 2000 has achieved retro status.

This maybe should go to the advice thread, but really I just want to work through this thought

I'm obsessed with someone. I can't stop thinking about them day in and day out and it really fucking sucks.

There's this gorgeous woman who is basically everything I want in life (except her profession) and I just love her
Uh, I guess this is an issue because I want to get over her, but I thought that distancing myself from her would help
It doesn't
So would reaching out to her help?

My thought is if I continue on the path I'm on, nothing will change because there's nothing forcing it to change
She won't reach out to me because she doesn't care enough about me
I won't reach out to her because I care too much

If I reach out and she doesn't respond, then that sucks, but maybe I can internalize that and then push whatever obligation our relationship might have onto her instead of me (having low self esteem and believing I am the sole reason she doesn't like me)
If she does respond then maybe I can get some closure

Well hell anon, you might as well be me. This definitely sounds like it should be in the advice thread but, fuck it lol

First thing's first: you gotta work on yourself. Whether you contact this woman again or not, you need to get your own shit together. Take the time to focus on bettering yourself and gain some insight into what you will and won't put up with from her anymore. Otherwise you're just going to end up in this situation again

After that, I guess reaching out depends on how you left off with her. If she never actually said she didn't like you, friend or otherwise, then it might be an okay idea to reach out. If you didn't have some big fight or anything that is lol
If she did flat-out say she doesn't like you though, then you just gotta take the hit and move on. Sucks, but that's just how it is.

I want to take the hit and move on, I just feel like for some reason I haven't done that–I know she probably won't be super into starting the kind of relationship I want, but I haven't internalized that despite thinking about it every day for the past 2ish years.

Sorry if this isn't the answer you want to hear but personally I don't think you should reach out. Being obsessed with someone and thinking about them 'day in day out' is inherently unhealthy and unfair on the other person. Especially if as you're saying you've had a lot of distance from this person, if they are still this much of a hyper-fixation for you there is likely a lot internally you are neglecting and need to work on, maybe in some form of therapy, to form more stable and healthy attachments with people. I don't think you're being malicious but I do honestly think it would be selfish to reach out to her, this probably has little to actually do with her and a lot to do with you and your headspace. Even if you 'resolve' this obsession, you will probably just become 'obsessed' with someone else until you resolve whatever the underlying condition causing it is, I feel like usually in these situations the 'obsession' people have is in reality just them creating a highly idealised (essentially personified coping mechanism) of people as some kind of escapist fantasy and it's unfair to project that on her, she will not live up to your obsession, and even though it seems harmless obsession over people and idealising them in this way is dehumanising to them

No. 545183

I definitely came here to bounce ideas off of people so it's not the worst to hear you say I shouldn't

But I guess I have to ask, what's wrong with being a little selfish? I do want to be selfish and satisfy my own needs because quite frankly I haven't focused on my own needs enough. If this is something that will help me get over this person then I should go for it–not at that person's expense, but I feel I know her enough to say that she wouldn't be bothered with me talking to her–I've mulled over this and I am getting therapy, I have no reason to believe I'd upset her by reaching out, accidentally or on purpose.

The underlying cause, and again therapy, is that I haven't felt the type of love that I truly desire and have lacked through out my entire life.
Do I think I will get it from her if I reach out–no, she never actually gave me enough love, though I fixated on her because she was the closest I ever got to that. She was super accepting of me even when I did freak out mentally and there are dozens of reasons to actually love her and I know that I'm not actually putting her on any sort of pedestal because that's just who she is–It's not out of the ordinary for someone to be great in a bunch of different ways that attracts a specific type of person.

She's great and there are dozens of reasons to like her, but there's no specific reason I should be obsessed with her in the way that I am. So I feel like if I confront this it will help.
If I am some how putting her on a pedestal, then wouldn't it be better to confront myself with how she actually is rather than my idea of her? How can I get rid of an idea of someone if I don't actually interact with them.

Sure, it's not the answer I want to hear, but I do want to hear more about what you think.

No. 545195

>>545183
I think that it’s possible that she wouldn’t be upset that you reach out, and I don’t think being selfish is always wrong but I do think ultimately this decision would be upsetting and harmful to you, and I think being selfish is wrong in this instance because I believe an obsession with someone is inherently unhealthy and inherently dehumanising, so I don’t think that there is a way to engage with it that would be beneficial to you. I feel if anything initiating contact will further prevent you from focusing on your own needs because it will just feed into your obsession. I think that the only way to move on from this will be from within and no interaction with her will help, because I’m of the belief that the obsession is born solely out of internal conditions rather than anything external or actually to do with her (like you said, she can have lots of great qualities but there is nothing specifically to warrant an obsession).

If she is the closest you ever got to the love you have never experienced, I can totally see from your perspective why you would have formed this fixation, but I think even though you say you know you won’t get the love you need from her, you are to some degree using this as a unhealthy coping mechanism to get as close to it as possible (again, understandably) or as a distraction by focusing on the possibility of getting more out of this relationship than confronting the reality, which is that if she really cared she would reach out. This relationship is too imbalanced and can only harm you, and you seem to be in a vulnerable place.

I don’t feel like ‘seeing how she really is’ will help you deconstruct the idealised version of her you have because I feel like what will happen is you will become too involved in the interactions due to your obsession and ultimately just end up worsening it (you will put too much time into thinking about your communication, you will read into things she says too much, you will take things too personally because it means so much to you), I think you could get rid of an idea of someone many ways other than interacting with them, like by examining the conditions of which lead you to form that idea (which you are already doing by going to therapy), I think it will dissipate over time, have you asked about this in therapy? What did your therapist recommend?

I understand your perspective better now you explained the background a little more, I’m glad you’re able to get therapy and sincerely hope it is able to help you in the way you need. Even though I don’t think reaching out to this particular person is something you should do, I do think you will be able to form healthy connections and experience love the way you have always wanted in the future, I wish you all the best!

You're not going to solve the entire crisis yourself, but getting rid of your carbon footprint helps–even if it's just a little bit

Think about how much life there is in a square foot of dirt, not just the fuzzy animals but all of the ones that contribute to the health of the soil and all of the plants that grow from it

Plant flowers for pollinators, try thinking about eating less meat and more local foods, donate to animal shelters and conservation efforts

You can make a difference, even if it's not the game changing impact you want. If you want to make a big difference and have everyone pat you on the back, you can just buy trophies online if you want.

how do i choose a name that i/others won't cringe at?

i'm from an immigrant family and right now stuck with a new english name that i chose in my fakeboi phase (unisex so it's whatever), not yet realizing it sounds quite strange for my region.

I think the way I'm obsessed with her doesn't dehumanize her–maybe that's a bit contrary to your idea that inherently you cannot be obsessed with someone without dehumanizing.

I do think this is something I need for my subconscious to sort of deal with–rather than an active need, I feel my body attached to her in my subconscious and that's why I'm constantly thinking about her. More as a reflex rather than me actively thinking she's perfect.

So yeah, it is a coping mechanism, but something I'm trying to actively work with. I'm not going to find anyone like her, but that doesn't mean I won't find love.
Basically my only two choices are find love and teach my soul that it exists everywhere or confront her and teach my soul that love isn't coming from her–because doing nothing doesn't help and as much as I've moved on actively and consciously, there's still something I cannot control. So it's not about trying to lean into the coping mechanism, but sort of confronting it.
If I'm scared of water, then learning to swim will help in a sense.
I don't think the relationship being imbalanced, in that I care for her more than she cares for me is unhealthy in the sense that it would damage me to re-evaluate it. So talking with her won't be some sort of trigger or anything.

This third paragraph is kinda why I didn't respond at first. It's taking a lot of liberties about who I am and how I act, especially with this person I'm thinking of. I don't mean to be that girl and say "You don't know me" but it does take an awful lot of assumption to say that I will become too involved in the interactions and it will worsen this obsession. To be fair, you don't know me that well and your idea of all of this is based on your own personal experiences and assumptions. I don't mind that, I just feel like something more concrete than an assumption, you know something more than "I feel like this will happen", is something that I need to hear.

I did talk to my therapist, which is why I'm responding to this post, and he's all for it. Relying on time to heal my wounds isn't really the best fix–that's not really how trauma works on any level. People don't just get over things, they have to accept and move on. I've done so consciously but there's still part of me that always reflexes back to her, so I need to do something that will allow my subconscious to move on.

If I'm constantly thinking about her and loving her, then how does that help my subconscious over time? Anyway, that's how I feel. I'll probably post in a different thread about how it goes if anything goes.

What can I do for upper back pain?

Talk to your doctor, but be sure you're aware of the side effects of benzodiazepines and maybe talk to the doctor about it.

Good luck, anxiety is fucking terrible. Your doctor should be understanding, just describe your symptoms and how it negatively effects your day to day life. That's the key is mentioning specially how anxiety impedes your ability to work, study, etc. If you are specifically looking for medication, be sure to mention you've already tried breathing exercises, meditation, etc.

One cheap trick to keep a conversation going is to just ask the other person a question about themselves or a follow up question to what they were talking abut. Most people love talking about themselves to someone who's paying attention or at least being given prompts to fill a silence. Even if you do nothing but ask questions of them and say nothing of substance yourself they'll come away thinking that was a great conversation and they get along good with you. Just try and make it relevant to what they're talking about or you know they're currently involved with or care about rather than just asking what their favorite color or movie is out of the blue or whatever generic questions some socially inept people sometimes fall into, then it can feel more like a weird interview.

There's a new age shop in my town that has decided to stay open during coronavirus. They posted on their website that they will be misting bleach from their humidifier to keep the store clean and to "clean the air". When I told them that sounded dangerous to inhale they said it's just a capful or two mixed into the water. My stupid question is, is this actually safe? I thought breathing in bleach fumes could damage your lungs and hurt people who have asthma etc, it doesn't seem like it would be smart to do on a regular day let alone when a virus is going around attacking the lungs. Am I wrong? I didn't look into it too much before telling them it was a bad idea and now I'm starting to feel like an idiot.

How do I get back into social media?

I used to really like posting and putting in work (before Instagram was a thing/got big) but now I really lack the time and my life isn't really eventful. I'm aware that I don't have to post but I also have no one to follow, as in I have no friends or even acquaintances. Following influencers or shops seems dumb, which is why I don't have social media in the first place.

I'm trying to be more social and shit and always get asked if I have instagram and people seem to seebit as a bit of a red flag or something if you don't. I'd also feel embarrassed to tell someone my handle and the account not having any followers.

You can follow hashtags now so if you’re interested in specific little communities / fandoms / other things you can utilize that quite well.
Also makes for a great place to meet new people even if they are just online.

I'm from a muslim family and while my family abroad thinks it's weird me and none of my sisters are married or dating (my little sister is dating someone but it's a secret) but they only tease us about it, and my family in my country either kinda gave up or thinks it's great we're prioritizing university, traveling or our careers, or who think it's ok if we take our time to find a bf/potential husband. Then I do have my mother and one of my aunt who always go "men are trash, don't depend on one."

Then again my family is strict in some aspects and don't give a fuck about others. When I asked my grandmother and my mother why they never wear the hijab when I was a kid they laughed at me and said they'll only wear one when they'll lose their hair. Which isn't even true because my grandma still isn't wearing one. They also don't care if we don't pray or fast during ramadan as long as we don't tell them we don't believe in god lol. Are you from a middle eastern country or another country where the majority is muslim? I think how strict people can be with Islam often depends on the local culture.

its actually really simple, call them up and discuss with them. ask any and all questions you might have with the nurse on the line. tbh most vets would rather see a dog not suffer than people bringing them in last minute when they clearly havent had quality of life in a long time. usually what happens is they will talk to you over the phone about everything you ask (prices, appointment days and times for the euthanasia) and the day of will do a final check up to determine the dogs health.
when I had to put my dog down in 2018 (old age and he was rapidly declining his last year of life with doggie dementia and probably a stroke) i called up every vet in the area to asses prices and even called up the ones who do euthanasia at your home. the one i went with was the sweetest lady who was sad for us but glad to see us take him from his suffering because he was in bad shape. the euthanasia was quick and painless for him and to be honest i hadnt seen him that happy or relaxed in a long time because he usually hated the vet to the point of having to be muzzled every single time. i wish you the best for the tough call you have to make.

Over the past year, there have been several instances of someone ringing my apartment door from 3-5am. Most recently tonight. Unlike the other instances, when I got up to check the peep hole I heard my upstairs neighbors moving around and talking. I couldn’t make out what they were saying but it lead me to wonder maybe they’re the ones ringing my door bell? Like maybe they think I’m being too loud (although I’m asleep) sometimes I run the dishwasher before I go to bed and ringing my door bell is there way of telling me to be quiet ?
I would really like to ask, in a non passive aggressive or confrontational way, because I need to know if it’s not them, since the alternative is a little terrifying and I want to alert property security.

Not pissed, but realize that he's keeping you on the hook for a source of attention to feed his ego. You are 100% spot on that he doesn't care about you, and he's done nothing to prove otherwise. Demanding you pay attention to him is a one way street solely for his benefit, while he ignores and discards you when and how he sees fit. Why do they do it? I think in some part it's egotism, they just feel like if they have a circle of women interacting with them that it makes them seem desirable. He could be stringing you along as a backup option if right now he's courting other women and wants you in case it doesn't work out for them.

A man who is extremely attracted to you and wants to have you will not ignore you like that. Don't believe low value men who act like it's a huge hassle to ask you how you are over a text or give you a call, that's bullshit and they're just trying to make you feel bad for their lazy and bad behavior.

Same and I assumed it is bc of my fucked back kek. tldr my S curve is more exaggerated than normal so I assume that's whats making them protrude like that. If i wear tight tops legit looks like I have 2 pairs of tits. Maybe that's why yours are like that too?

Anything but positive. I thought I was slowly getting over it, that they wouldn't do that, except I overheard them kinda shittalking someone in our group, and then did it again today, when all he did was mess up one fight in the game we play, and is not the best at what he does b ut… clearly tries? and I think it's really rude to all casually talk about how disappointing he is and how irritating it is to play with him; It makes me entirely think my fears are true, I'm not the best and make stupid mistakes mostly because I have severe ADHD and my focus gets switched, so like, I understand… if they're talking shit about it, but it's just upsetting..

Do I just suck at cleaning myself down there or what?? I have long inner labia lips and smegma obviously gets in and around the folds. I feel like I haven’t seen it really build up until recently, so I’ve been taking extra care to gently wash and rub it off on really hard to get areas that would normally be missed. Like, I’ll look and make sure all of it is off. But then when I step out of the shower and dry myself, there’s still remnants of smegma around my labia?! The first time I thought “ok, maybe I just haven’t done a good enough job” but no matter how long or painstakingly careful I try to be to make sure it’s clean, there’s always remnants of it. Is it possible to exist more than a few minutes without smegma just building up?? lol

How stupid would it be to move from a major city in the US to a major city in Poland? I hold dual citizenship, and can speak Polish decently, but not extremely well. Fluent in English. I have family there, but we're not really connected, so it's mostly a non-factor. I work in tech, and I feel like I'd possibly be a more competitive candidate there than I am here.

I'm mid-twenties, and I think it might be interesting to live abroad for some time. I've considered other places but the visa/immigration issues seems like a hassle to navigate. NZ, GB and NL would probably top my list, but they have country-specific barriers.

I haven't visited as an adult, so I'd definitely do so again before making any decisions. Homophobia is a concern for me because I'm a bi woman predominantly interested in dating women, but I'm used to navigating traditional Polish views.

I think a T-shirt and jeans can look nice if you choose cuts that are flattering to your body! My first thought when you said you have a pear shaped body is that high waisted jeans w/ a beltand a tight T-shirt/tank top would look really cute on that body type. That can translate into a lot of different clothes as well, if you look for clothes with a defined waist and wearing tighter tops to balance out being “bottom heavy” (I hate to say that cause I think pear shaped bodies are really cute) and not looking like a box.

Do these sound like actual delusions or am I just weird? I really refuse to believe that they're actually fake too, hear me out.

Sometimes I feel like I can slow the time down by thinking about it extra hard. When I do that, it immediately feels like everything around me has slowed down and it used to weird me out so incredibly much but now I enjoy it. When I look at still pictures, I can sometimes see them moving in front of me. Last time it happened, I was looking at this olive oil brand and the olive started swinging left and right in front of my eyes lol.

Also kinda believe that the current life I am living isn't my real one and the real me is actually asleep right now, dreaming all of this so I'm free to do what I want in this life. It's kinda like playing Sims, the real me is controlling the current me. I cannot wait until I wake up and live my actual life.

Thank you for your answer.
I can tell sometimes that I'm dreaming it up but the other times I feel myself going back into this headspace and I feel at ease because everything just feels made up and my real life is waiting for me on the other side. It's like this is my first chance in life and if I fuck it up then things are still ok because my other life (aka the one where I'm sleeping right now) is waiting for me and I can always start again. Living alone doesn't really help at all I think. I also told my sister about this yesterday on the phone and she was weirded out and told me to get help too. Normal reaction I guess. This is probably something to feel weird over for other people. I think I will take the help thing into more consideration after the entire virus thing is over.

This sounds like depersonalization or dissociation to me. I go through this a lot and it feels like you're a robot or watching yourself through a mirror.

It's always weird when I see myself or am aware of what I look like because I don't feel like I should be in my body.

It helps to have some grounding techniques but it's a pretty manageable thing with therapy and self awareness.

Alright, so, kind of just a weird question over a 'stupid one', I guess, but… (warning to readers in /OT/ with SFW interests: sexual nature)

Lately I've been having this weird sexual fixation/penis envy desire to feel what it's like to have a penis and have sex with a woman. I would consider myself fully straight (I've had lesbian experiences in the past during more 'experimental' years and tried regular strap-ons and did not enjoy them), but lately whenever I view pornographic material or anything vaguely arousing, I get stuck imagining how good it must feel to be the dude and the sensation of cock-entering-vagina. Other than this I'm happy with being a female and the concept doesn't enter my life in any other aspect, so I'm gonna chalk it up to momentary fetish.

That decided, any anons here have any experience with sex toys like the feeldoe or whatever it is? like one of those double ended strap-ons that you insert into yourself? good ones/bad ones?

I feel like reviews of sex toys online are super overrated, hence wanting to ask here. I find most sex toys/dildos/whatever underwhelming (honestly, for what must be such a high $$$ industry, sex toys are so underdeveloped and overpriced, what the hell), while even 'neutral' reviewers will make them sound like gods orgasm-inducing gift to woman-kind. So… I'm not asking for a sexual experience play-by-play from anyone, but if you could give some more detail on 'what' they feel like if you did like yours, that'd be appreciated. (what I mean: is it similar sensation to using a dildo? a vibrator? is there significant sensation from thrusting, or does the 'pleasurable feeling' of the item come purely from having it inserted, whether you're using it as intended or not?

Kinda considering getting one and a 'pocket pussy' or something just to live out the weird fetish. Don't really wanna involve an actual woman as, like I said, I don't feel I'm a lesbian or a person who wants to have real sex with another woman. But if the sensation is akin to just having a prone dildo or vibrator inside of myself, then, well… can't say it's worth the money for my situation, lol.

anyone else also feeling there's a larger influx of the weird 'this cow deserves to written about because they're a bad person and so we're justified in making fun of them!' mentality, or am I just nitpicking? like, legit anons going on tirades about how they're posting to protect people/spread the word about how scammy/shitty/whatever ___ cow is, and are super defensive when anyone tries to say something that's not in favor of the cow being a dangerous psycho criminal? (even if its not WKing)?

I mean, that mentality seems to be more common place over time, but it's been in real high abundance lately in the threads I read. like shit, why we all gotta be virtue signaling super heros all the sudden, i just wanna read/gossip/speculate because they're fucking lulsy train wrecks and it's entertaining… you'd think some of these anons are rehearsing their speech for when they meet heavens gates and have to justify getting in lmao

You're probably experiencing this when you watch porn because porn is made for men. All porn, even girl-on-girl, is created with a male viewer in mind, so that will come through psychologically when you consume it. Becoming fixated on a certain male-oriented aspect of it (having a penis and inserting it into a vagina) is normal for the experience.
To answer your question about toys: I hate to tell you this, but there will never be a way to recreate the experience with female genitals. Clit-sucking toys are probably the closest you're going to get, but even that mostly just feels like receiving (robotic) oral sex on female genitals. Double-ended vibrators feel exactly like it sounds - a vibrator stimulating you inside your vagina and against your clit. It feels more intense when you push in, but in the same way it would if you were using a vibe solo and pushed it more firmly against yourself.
Basically, there isn't a good way to simulate having a functional penis yet, so I wouldn't waste your money. Sorry, anon.

Thanks anon! I appreciate the insight (and I think you're absolutely correct in it). Sadly when it comes to the toys, I had a feeling that'd be the case. I mean, I knew there wasn't going to be some magical device that'd make it the same sensation, but I was hoping there might be something a little better than 'lol we tied two bullet vibrators together, have fun'.

Off-reply tangent:
I know it's a male-dominated industry, but dear God is it really so much to ask for someone to develop something for women that isn't a Chinese knock off of a Mcdonalds action figure with built-in buzzing?!

About to start a blog based around DIY fitness-sex toys. Aka sex toys that motivate you to work out/work via you working out; two birds one stone, y'know? The fact that pic related (What a joke - spoilered more for the sadness of its existence vs nsfw nature) and ben-wa balls are the only thing that come up in relation to it kills me. We're really not utilizing the potential of female sexual enjoyment. I don't even understand why, since I'd always figured women would still be pretty large buyer demographic of toys, even if men consume more media etc…(I mean, it'd even be logical straight women would be buying more toys if the vast majority of men are getting their idea of a good sexual experience from porn, lol?).

Even the 'long distance/couple experience' items make me sad, the woman's version of the pair always makes it seem like even the people designing sex toys intended for women's pleasure are the same ones who think we orgasm each time we use tampons or something…

That or I'm some vaginally numb super-mutant resistant to the mind-blowing, world-shattering sensations of 'it's-reminiscent-of sitting-on-the-edge-of-a-rattling-dryer 3000 turbo max (now on sale for $769!)'. And somehow I doubt that, considering ((TMI-apologies to anyone still reading)) I'm one of those lucky ladys capable of continued multiple/stacked orgasms.

Hey anon, this is an interesting question. I do think I am introverted because of how I was “allowed” to socialise in my teen years.
I was an outgoing and sociable child, but my family moved to UK and were living in a housing situation were basically no kids were allowed to be, so for 5 out of 7 days of the week my sister and I had to pretend we didn’t exist.
Then coming back to my home country, my parents wouldn’t give me money to see friends outside of school, and wouldn’t allow them to come to my house, and since that I guess I have become used to spending all my free time alone and this has now carried on into my adult life.
TL;DR I would say that I am introverted largely because of my upbringing.

It definitely is the case for me. My parents aren't the most extroverted party people either but they're still normal. My sister is a lot younger than I and my parents were a lot more lax with her, so while also a bit introverted she's a perfectly normal girl too.
When I was a child they raised me to be uber polite, they didn't praise me for meaningless little stuff like other parents did and they also scolded me for small things (sometimes even in advance before I even did something). As a result I'm very timid and scared of basically anything. As a kid I always though I'm not a mommy's child but now as an adult I totally depend on them. I can't do anything on my own, I'm always worried about making mistakes. At work too, I always ask or double check with an older coworker because I can't make decisions on my own. I'm just so scared of possible consequences or backlash.
My parents also made sure to always tell me that I need to stay quiet when adults are talking, as in never interrupting anybody, so I just grew into a person who doesn't speak much. Starting from when I was a teen everybody around me including my parents suddenly expected me to be bubbly, outgoing, fun, talkative,… which I just wasn't used to. I was supposed to be the perfect obedient child who magically turns into a super popular young woman. My biggest flaw is not being good at talking (I simply have no idea what to say) but that is essential for school or work settings so I always fail.

Are people really making $600 a week on unemployment right now? At this point, should i just leave my job? they're paying us to stay home but it's only 30 hours worth a week, which is less than $400 a week.. So i'm actually baffled if i'd make more being unemployed at the moment rather than putting myself at risk going out to work.

I understand how you feel and that sucks, but increased welfare payments have all been touted as temporary measures - if they weren't, literally which low paid worker would stick to their job? But it's not going to last forever and trying to get another job after restrictions let up and people are trying to get back to work is not going to be a fun ride.

Yes.

You don’t get raised by an actual autist and a passive aggressive, emotionally void asshole and come out normal.

Like >>549536, my parents didn’t really have friends either. And like >>549534, I never got any praise of any kind. It’s like I was expected to just know things. I was never asked how I felt, I was never soothed, I was never encouraged. In fact, I was often discouraged, either directly or indirectly. I’ve never had a proper conversation with either of my parents. I don’t feel they ever really took an interest in me as a person. Or even saw me as one. When I wasn’t being ignored, I was being belittled. They fed me and clothed me but they checked out with everything else.

I think if I had parents who engaged with me, and life in general, I would have been alright. Probably still an anxious mess because some of that is just genetic but otherwise fine.
Instead I’ve just been a NEET for 10 years.
I don’t have any older people in my life to guide me in anything. I wish I did.
I think I grew up without love.

Man I feel you anon, this is pretty similar to my experience as well.

My mom had absolutely no friends. She was "friendly" with a few people, but would constantly berate/shittalk them to me. She was so highly critical of everyone, even the few friends I had as a kid. Any little misstep they did would have her saying they're bad kids, their parents are terrible people, they're probably child abusers, etc. Example being I scraped my knee playing with a friend when I was like 4, so my mom freaked out on the kid saying it was her fault and that she was "using" me. It was really hard to stay friends with anyone because she hated everyone.

I feel guilty even talking about it, like I should just get over my weird family issues and stop crying, parents don't define me, etc., but it's impossible to believe it didn't impact me and how I handle relationships. It's made it so hard to relate to people.

No. 549596

is it worth starting sailor moon? I'm not into anime but it being from the 90s and a part of a lot of my friends' childhoods makes me want to watch it. Like is it actually good or is it pure nostalgia that fuels everyone's obsession with it? Is there somewhere I can watch it for free?

No. 549598

>>549500
Absolutely. Every thing I did as a child was heavily downplayed by my parents. If I got the best grades in my class it was just my job. If I wasn't the best I was punished.
My parents were also part of a weird doomsday cult and I wasn't allowed to play with children outside the cult. At first I did it anyway and got beaten everytime so I just learned to stay inside and read/watch TV. Now that they got outside of that they ask me why I don't have many friends lol.
On top of that when I was 12 my parents decided to send me to a prestigious school in the city because they thought I was a child genius. My classmates bullied the shit out of me for being a poor country bumpkin and I lived with a creepy old lady who wouldn't let me turn on the heating in winter. I ended getting lots of health issues and spent most of my teenage years in hospitals which definitely didn't help me being more social.

Do you have to understand something to memorise it? I was talking to my friend who said this and I was surprised because I don't have this at all. I can remember like 60 pages of text almost word for word (literally i can remember the exact layout of the page, any little jokes the author put in the text book, additional 'did you know' information boxes on the page outside the main text etc.) and could rewrite it out to maybe 90-95% word for word accuracy without any concept of what it actually means. I can only remember it for about 6-10 hours though, it doesn't give me any long term memory or understanding. Does anyone else have this or is there something wrong with me?

I'm not particularly shy and my social skills are alright at this point but I'm pretty introverted and very reserved. My mother would not allow me to socialize growing up – walking down to a nearby shop after school with friends was out of the question, going to multiple school events in a row wasn't allowed (i.e., if a dance was one day and a football game was the next, I could choose one or the other, not both). I distinctly remember her telling me I was "not allowed to have too much fun". As a result, despite never being bullied and people finding me generally likable, I was extremely awkward and hesitant to try new things or leave my comfort zone until pretty recently. I'm pretty normal now but I definitely feel "behind" other people my age.

Do you think the average person would eventually be able to memorise 60 pages word for word maybe if they studied it for a while or that the average person can literally never remember that much?

It’s probably possible, but most people would have trouble with it and would really need to dedicate themselves to it. How long does it take for you to memorize the ~60 pages? From your post it sounds like you just automatically remember them after reading them just once(?).
Even if you aren’t autistic, you definitely have some sort of cognitive gift and I am jealous.

They just spoke to me in some way but at some point I realised that the whole thing is just toxic to the max and now I only go because I used to go so often in the past.

Each game is different when it comes to gameplay and has a completely different setting and universe so in theory you can pick and choose however you want. Usually it's recommended you start with FF7 or next entries if you're not into retro JRPGs. If you decide at some point to play all the mainline games, you need to know about the older games
>play the GBA or PSP remakes of FF1 and especially FF2 because the original FF2 is super hard and has a bunch of balance breaking glitches don't bother leveling up Ultima in FF2 no matter the version
>play the DS remake or the PSP remake of FF3 but apparently in terms of gameplay they're not too different from the original

I think Jojo is super fun, it's really crazy and it's important to not think too much about what is happening because it doesn't make sense mostly and to just enjoy the ride. The characters look the same because the mangaka uses like one reference photo of Natalie portman for everyone.

Why is it a bad thing that you're not attracted to him anymore? I feel relief over getting over someone, for example, because it means i no longer have to think about them all the time. It gets annoying after a couple days, really, after that it's just a really annoying routine.
Maybe you've realized you've stopped thinking about him as often? That always dissolves my interest in my crushes. Or you saw him in a completely different light (as a father/teacher, maybe) and you can't think of him in the same way anymore?

This is going to be so vague but back in the old days around 2010 there was this REALLY popular artist on DeviantART who used to draw Naruto fanart and his style was almost identical to Kishimoto's. (Bleach too I think?) He didn't just copy the Naruto style with minimal drawing talent, he had a good grasp on perspective and body proportions too.

He was Asain-American (or Asian-Canadian) and he had a picture on his profile with a big tablet. His commissions were very expensive and he was like royalty in the Naruto fandom. Does anyone remember his name?? I think it was a single work like "riyuu" or something similar.

I like metal, but I recently discovered that I also like 80's goth rock and since my identity is so tied to the music I listen to, sometimes I actually feel conflicted, like I'm not supposed to like both of them

No it isn't and everyone else who says it is keeps reaching and reaching, and they don't know how to do proper thinking and how to analyze a manga that has themes like war, genocide, etc. in it without immediately jumping to the conclusion that it is some sort of antisemitic propaganda, because some of the characters have European names. Sure, if you look at a few panels then you might get the idea it is (like fucktards from Tumblr), especially if you look at panels from the basement arc. I know Isayama putting the armbands on the Eldarian race wasn't his greatest move but that's how he portrayed the oppressed, and once you read it then you really know that it really isn't some way of him brainwashing his fans to think Nazism should be supported.
The current arc is about how genocide is wrong and why you shouldn't support it and all that jazz, the majority of the characters even want to stop it, so why would a manga that is apparently "nazi propaganda" have something like that in it and not the complete opposite?

I don't want to tell you what to believe, you're free to do what you want and even hate this manga, but I cannot stand people who immediately jump to the conclusion that it's linked to nazism and Isayama wants to say antisemitism is good bla bla without even actually reading it and thinking about it. I blame Tumblr and their need to call every single thing that doesn't scream "WOKE" to them some "crypto fascist manga".

Deleted and reposting so I can add some info since my other post was shit. Shiki is about a mysterious illness sweeping through an isolated mountain town. It has supernatural elements to it and is a suspense/horror show. Erased is a crime/mystery series with time travel.

Japan is tone deaf and fetishizes Nazi Doitsu. WW2 might as well have been anime to them. “Problematic themes” of the fascist variety are rampant in otaku media (like literally everything with a military involved), AoT is just more on the nose. Shocking to weebs I know but it’s not just Isayama, Japan at large IS nationalist, anti immigrant anti globalization and pretty damn racist lol So y’all better stop watching anime period or you’re a literal nazi ok?

Wouldn't it be lowkey rape if you have sex with your asexual partner? Rape is probably a too strong word to describe it and I mean, as far as I know you're asexual if you don't feel any sexual attraction towards anyone (I'm sorry if this is wrong or ignorant of me), so I really cannot imagine having sex with your partner who consented to it but they're not really into it.

What some nice things you can tell yourself to get you to kick your ass, but y'know, kindly?

I feel like I'm too harsh to myself and need to love myself more. I want to stop saying things like "I hate myself" and "Cuz I'm a dumb bitch".

Why are the mods being so fucking anal about ~no commentary~ in the Confessions thread? Nearly every single confessions thread had some iteration of "Confess for the farms shalt not judge" in the description. Why just now is it such an issue, esp. When the anon who made the current thread outright said they wished they hadn't included it because the mods have latched onto this passive aggressive "Well, OP said so, and OP clearly makes the rules, so have a trigger happy banhammer"

Isn't the point of lolcow to make fun of people who display cow behavior? The confessions thread is a goldmine for that lmao.

I'm guessing continued shaming of anon's posts would cause the thread to die? Nobody will post anymore.

That was my guess too, but there have been confession threads since before 2015 I thought? They're all filled to the brim with commentary lol, still never stopped anyone from posting. It just seems so salty to me lmao.

so you shouldn't interact with the people posting their confessions then. moralfagging is boring anyway and it derails the thread. if you wanna talk about feminism, go to ashitrahgarden or twitter.

What do anons think of the whole sex differences thing? I've been reading about it and it made me rethink my entire opinion about gender dynamics. A lot of stuff I understood as just men being shit have a biological origin, hell even patriarchy is the norm across different peoples, women's sexuality being controlled is the norm, women not being allowed a say in important decisions (or downright not being allowed to own property) is the norm, infanticide of baby girls is common, all the shit we complain about have been consistently present in various civilizations.

Most important of all, old school feminists knew this, and instead of doing what we do (that is, blaming it all on socialization, thinking that the solution is to somehow make men to change their ways) they sought alternatives to bypass these dynamics like creating networks of support between women (because banding together and isolating the women is men's main domination strategy) and stuff like that.

Idk, I just feel like we are all collectively wasting our breath complaining about men and protesting the way they act as if they're going to change. They're not.

AYRT and I can see how it would be derailing but I think it can also add to discussion. Depends on the derail I suppose. Sometimes people post shit in there that is so absurd most can't help but reply. Is the confessions thread plagued with radfem reeeing or something? It's just very out of the blue, I cant recall seeing a warning post about it or anything so I just assumed farmhands were asshurt about something kek.

No. 551886

>>551884
the reason why farmhands are banning people who comment now is because of radfems

I've always thought the whole "everything is 100% socialization there are no differences between the genders" thing was pathetic wishful thinking. It's obvious that we have different survival/reproductive instincts that bleed into other facets of modern life. We are still animals at the end of the day. It was always my problem with feminism in the first place, that we just can't win against men if we play their game, its not designed for us to even have a fair chance. That doesn't mean I want to submit to life as a fuckmaid, but like you said, its a waste of breath. They're not going to change for us. They don't and won't ever view us as equals, because we're different, and different can never be equal. I really do like the idea of supporting each other despite that though. Just because we can't win their game doesn't mean we can't play our own.
