Almond milk is fucking disgusting and so's soy milk. But I guess people have to have their substitute. Anyways picrel because they're all obnoxious about it and act like religious freaks over nut water
No. 673311
>>673234I thought so too until I found a few brands that make it acceptable.
I still wouldn't put it in cereals though.
No. 673486
>>673256Might seem like a weird suggestion, but you should give unpasteurized a shot! Eatenially the homogenization process denatures a lot of the lipoproteins found in naturally occurring, raw milk. This is what causes the lactose sugars to be come so irritating on the GI tract in many cases. I usually get mine from sprouts and it’s pretty good stuff.
I only suggest this because I used to think I was lactose intolerant as well for years.
No. 673530
>>673234Soy milk is absolutely delicious, especially in cereal and coffee. It's just got a creamy nutty taste that makes cows milk seem bland and watery in comparison.
Almond isn't terrible but it's the wateriest and worst tasting milk, I only drink it when I'm dieting because it's so low calorie.

I don't think it's always bad if a woman's a wife and mother. A lot of women have distaste for it, rightfully so with the state of society and men's expectations. But I hate to see us mock other women who show no signs of having problems. I roll my eyes at the r/childfree tier memes spreading how marriage and kids are the devil. Or instantly pitying a woman who is expressing joy about her kids. A portion of women are able to find a guy they can be on equal ground with and have a genuine bond. It's not that the women are "happy to serve" but that there's friendship involved which eliminates the one-sidedness of "serving." That means it's not a traditional-style marriage, but a cooperation. I guess that's mainly millennial marriages where they have an egalitarian viewpoint. I also feel like having kids can be a good thing, even a goal, because it's a natural part of being a living species that evolves. It has potential to be fulfilling. But it's not for everybody and if that's your goal you have to be very careful as a woman to find a man who respects you and will put in effort to raising a child. I do think that's possible, just rare. I hate seeing happy mothers mocked from an assumption.
picrelated is one of my favorite channels and I can't claim to know them but it's wholesome happy content
No. 673578
>>673562Technically maybe but in reality it's used as a milk substitute most of the time, so it makes more sense to use a word that helps people understand how it's consumed.
There was actually a lawsuit about calling it milk, someone argued the label milk was misleading and it should be called imitation milk instead, but they ruled that it's not actually substituting ingredients to be an inferior copy of milk and nobody is going to be deceived by the name.

>>673530 > In appropriate spaces (eg breakingmom) they constantly bitch about that very thingHave only visited it once but I remember a woman begging her husband on his day off to take the baby for 5 mins so she could shit in peace. She had her period so we all know how those shits go. She described him as coming home from work every weekday evening and easily spending a half hour in the bathroom himself. He wouldn't afford her those 5 mins. I think she desbribed a scene of her crying on the toilet, baby present and all.

>>673582Exactly and I do share their anger
>>673583>>673587Sorry, I know this is sensitive for that reason. I guess I should say that i mean my whole opinion being unpopular, that no marriage isn't automatic hell BUT it shouldn't be for everyone or even most women, and if it is for someone she should be on equal ground to her husband. I absolutely sympathize with the way child free women feel. I know their anger is reasonable and necessary because of what the world tries to push, that every/most women should get married and pump out babies for their husband. I mean to say that I don't even think most should be mothers, no one should be unless they want to and will be treated equally. I just want there to be more even marriages. It's unpopular in certain communities to think that a woman being a happy mother/wife is possible and not every post enjoying it or even complaining slightly is a cry for help. But the suspicion and rage is justiifed and honestly necessary with how things are

>>673598Men see children as occasional kodak moments and a box ticked on their list of 'life achievements'. They don't expect their lives to change at all when they have a kid, and a lot of the time it doesn't. The reality is that 'spending time with your own child' involves a lot of boring work and drudgery, why help with that when your wife will do it and you can keep playing video games?
No. 673612
>>673598Maybe a weird comparison here but even with pets. I had an ex who spur of the moment insisted that we get guinea pigs. I had them as a child and he knew I liked them but I never suggested getting them again as an adult. Standing in a pet store he pushes me and seeing them there as baby pigs I am eventually persuaded. We get two, each picking one out, each paying half. Each naming one when we got home.
He never once cleaned the cage in the years that followed. When we split and it looked like I'd be moving to a shared place with him staying put so I asked about him caring for them temporarily. He scoffed and said they were my problem to rehome.. Again a weird comparison but in hindsight he also had a son from a previous relationship and it mirrored that. The ex wife complained that he wasn't doing enough. He left her, his role with the kid was absolutely minimal and even getting him to pay somewhat acceptable child support was a battle they had for years. That was a planned child. I was so blind to his flaws at the time… I'm lucky it was just pets in a cage.

>>674012Speaking from personal experience I believe it's true that a lot of straight men have issues seeing women as anything but potential partners - or even less than that, like sexual objects. And I personally consider you lucky if you've never had an experience like that.
But also keep in mind this is Lolcow, where the vast, vast majority of women come to shit on men, because they'be been burned and feel like they can't do it anywhere else.
Don't get me wrong, I hate a lot of male behaviors and think women are right to be wary of them, especially after having experienced the same things. But I also don't think every single man is like that. There are some people on here who genuinely think all men are the devil though, no exceptions. If I were you I'd be glad I wasn't like them and can have positive, healthy relationships with men. But the cynic in me also wants to tell you to be careful and not be too trusting lest you get blindsided by a man's true nature one day.

>>674266kek. Anon, don't make me laugh… do you know any animals besides cats dogs and ferrets? Consider: reptiles and amphibians
>waste of moneyThey usually cost less than a dog or cat, and can be highly affordable depending on the type of reptile (think of the expenses that come w/ a dog and cat, even with adoption, medical records, getting shots done, spaying and neutering them, paying for their food, toys and bedding, grooming, vet visits, pet rent and pet deposit if you live in an apartment). The average snake can be bought for 100 or less, all of their supplies total to less than 75 dollars and they only eat once a week, with their food being bought in bulk at 25 dollars for a year supply.
>waste of time2. You never need to walk your reptiles or play with them or give them any sort of attention. They are not needy whatsoever. You can leave them at home for a couple of weeks without worry and live your life without the burden of a dog or cat. (Or spending money for pet sitters/being a drag on your family and friends "can u watch my dog pls")
>cruel3. You'll be providing them a better life than they could ever have in the wild. They get to choose when they are warm or cool, they get a guaranteed meal every week and are safe from predators.
>die quickly4. Snakes outlive dogs and cats by miles. The average lifespan of a dog is between 10 and 13 years. Cats average life being 16. The average lifetime of the most common pet snake, the ball python, is 30 years.
I could go on and on but you'd probably make a comment about how cold and distant those pets are. You can have your opinion but don't say "all animals" and be fucking factually incorrect with your next statement. I love dogs, cats and reptiles equally. None are better than the others, it's about personal preference but don't spout BS.

No. 674429
>>674401 > being around these people is a huge pain in the assI've known two different guys who made quite the habit of dating mentally ill women, as in every gf fit that. The first guy had this unhealthy need to help people and thought he could fix people just by loving them.
The second was a an asshole and he had 3 seperate gfs who all had been sexually abused as kids resulting in depressive/bpd behaviours. He took advantage of them. The hypersexuality that sometimes comes from CSA was a nice bonus for him and he loved that they'd cling to him even after he treated them like shit. There are types that are drawn to the mentally ill but they're sick in their own ways.
I had some rough patches in my twenties and I wish it had occured to me that I could take myself out of the dating pool for a few years and it wouldn't be the end of the world.

>>674396Well it's not exactly mental illness as far as today's categories go, since currently it's more like "differently abled" than ill, but autism is also a good reason not to date or want to hang out with somebody.
At my university I'm in a group with an autistic guy. He's kindhearted and not mentally retarded, but he's way too much, and his autism is bringing everyone else down even if we're trying to be supportive. He's wasting everyone's time when teacher's aren't equipped to tell him to shut up and to not interject the lecture every 5 minutes, because they're being too polite and are overly paternalistic. He thinks women are a different species, and while he's the type to put them on a pedestal instead of going incel mode, it's still tiresome and it's impossible to break him out of thinking in strict categories. He's very hard to communicate with sometimes, and goes ahead and does things that we have to fix in his place, and he bears basically no consequences for his actions, while we're expected to keep him in check, but also treat him like an adult just like us.
Ever since I'm exposed to daily interactions with him, I realized that even high functioning autists can be difficult to handle, and that it's not just down to being patient and being very literal with wording, there will still be days I just want him to be gone or put into some kind of special education program so he doesn't hold us "normal" (neurotypical) people back.

Big lips are ugly af I will never understand how looking kawaii is popular yet people overdraw or get filler on their lips. It’s not cute, it draws attention away from your eyes.

To me a big problem is society is so isolated, many of us lack community so if your situation is terrible there's no net to fall on. If only people had bigger families/communities/support networks who will help. Like then if there's an
abusive family they will actually see justice and the
victims get taken to someone else's care, who actually cares. Instead of everyone pretending not to see it or only temporary fixes

Women are used to having their hair criticized if it's greasy or frizzy. Short or long hair, nobody is criticizing men for looking unkempt.

>>676240>It’s not worth replying though because someone in that deep isn’t going to leave because a couple of anons said toI disagree that it's not worth it. You're right that it's very unlikely someone is going to leave right in that moment, maybe not even months down the line. But speaking as someone who used to be in an emotionally
abusive relationship and posted online, even though I didn't implement all the advice right away, I did take people's opinions to heart. When I ended up leaving about two years later, those same opinions had definitely been part of a long journey that resulted in me opening my eyes and getting help. After I'd heard that my ex's behaviors were
abusive so many times I finally started reading more on the topic and realized his actions were wrong, and maybe I didn't deserve it. You never know what part your words might play.
I completely understand how frustrating it is when you give good advice and the other person is too blind to see it. You don't have to take the time to try and help if it's too mentally draining. I now often find myself in the same position others used to be in for my sake. I'll keep doing it though, because I have hope that those women may eventually free themselves like I did.

I knew that my relationship was pretty fucked up, I knew I was being abused, but it took years for me to actually understand and accept that iykwim. Reading shit that confirmed what I knew didn’t really help because each instance was like a tiny grain of salt: completely ineffectual and inmemorable alone, though I agree that the pile it formed did have some impact.

>>676305I agree, actually think gift cards or money is the best present as you’re gifting someone the choice.
Generally hate both giving and receiving gifts. Giving is stressful, it’s hard to find a gift. If you choose something they like they probably already have it or something similar, or someone else might gift the same thing. It might also be slightly wrong. There can also be awkward situations where the values of the respective gifts are very different, especially when you’ve not yet established a precedent. “Just ask!” Well my dumb culture doesn’t like to talk about money so the person would say they don’t care but then still get offended later.
Receiving has the same issues. The only times I get something I actually want is when I tell someone the exact item. I’m not interested in generic women’s gifts like candles and pampering giftsets so they end up regifted or sold.
Funny thing is I think my love language might be gift giving? I love noticing people don’t have something and buying it for them like nice gloves in winter, or getting a friend’s favourite coffee when they come to stay. I just hate enforced gift-giving culture.

Going around saying you're not like other girls is the polar opposite way to get approval from guys who 1) interpret this as you being bitchy and drama-y, like they do anything resentful or boastful said by women 2) prefer traditionally feminine looking and acting women they get a bigger ego boost from "winning", or else that wouldn't be the traditional gender role 3) actually get angry when a woman has stereotypically male hobbies because they think you're trying to infiltrate and ruin their boys only club 4) get super insecure that a woman might know more about it or are better at it than them.

Most of the time when I see women implying "I'm just not like other girls" it's because they don't have enough female role models and encouragement to be as they are instead of sincerely thinking they're "better" than staceys.

I could literally give a rat's ass about college graduates in student debt and them trying to convince the lower class they deserve $50k more than everybody else. Many of us didn't have the privilege to go to college and those that did realized we were too poor to continue going.
It is not our responsibility for your financial instability. It's not our fault your other classmates are richer than you, we see you the same exact way. And the fact they're trying to say "Well, we were forced by our parents and teachers to go and we were young!" I still don't care. You had that privilege to choose between going to school and entering the workforce to obtain a higher class status, and being young still doesn't matter, people your age decided not to go too. They also try to guilt us by saying "Well, I don't have a good job after graduating, I make $11 an hour!" Guess what, so do the rest of us that didn't graduate. You're just temporarily broke. Have you all complaining ever considered dropping out and putting it on hold for a few years? Why not? Mom and dad told you you wouldn't succeed without a degree? Imagine, just literally, imagine how you're spitting in the face of two thirds of the population right now, the population that never had that choice you made. I don't feel any sympathy, because in a couple years, that debt will be paid off and your high salary job you got with that degree will let you go on so many vacations and travel around the world without thinking twice about your finances. Meanwhile, majority of us will keep the world turning. Us custodians, line workers, machine operators, farmers, service industry workers, daycare providers, electricians, plumbers, etc… Do you get the picture? All of us that do the dirty work are lower class, and there's way more of us then there are of you.
I literally just want you guys to admit you hate the working class. Also, if you have a degree, you are not working class, full stop. Also consider the fact we have debts as well. We also have the choice of saving up for something to buy, like a used car, and paying it off in full instead of getting a loan taken out.

Are you of the opinion that only rich people should go into high paying professions since they already have the money to put themselves through all of their schooling? It's literally impossible under the current loaning system and wages of the United States for every college graduate to graduate without loans or debt. They should throw a pity party because that absolutely sucks. Like you, people are trying their hardest to provide for themselves and pursue a better life.

Sorry, but the "I'm too poor to afford school!!" excuse is just as dumb and annoying and more often than not is coming from a place of bitterness and ignorance.

In fact I think the biggest hurdle would be transportation assuming you'd try to weasel out of student housing on campus that was also typically covered by assistance programs.
A girl I knew from high school didn't ever score better than me, but she was given grants and aid to go to my same college just because her family was poor. She even had a MacBook and other electronic shit given to her and the ONLY stipulation was that she had to uphold an above average gpa–and spoiler alert, she couldn't be assed.
>It is not our responsibility for your financial instability. Okay? So no food, housing, medical care, or child support welfare services for the poors either, then. Nobody is responsible for anybody and if you don't have yours then fuck you.
Sound good?
>You had that privilege to choose between going to school and entering the workforce to obtain a higher class statusThere is no guarantee in hell that entering the workforce with no education will give you a "higher class status" unless perhaps you're a white male.
What usually happens is that those people hit an earning ceiling and have to take night courses and acquire some kind of certification class which cost $$$ to advance in their careers anyway.
>They also try to guilt us by saying "Well, I don't have a good job after graduating, I make $11 an hour!" Guess what, so do the rest of us that didn't graduate. But you just said entering the workforce straight away will higher your class status, which is it.
>Have you all complaining ever considered dropping out and putting it on hold for a few years? Once you take out a loan and are not an active student after a time, the loans start accruing interest separate from the principle balance. You are literally burning money to drop out and fuck around for years figuring out what you want. That's why people are so pressed to graduate and be job placed immediately.
>that debt will be paid off and your high salary job you got with that degree will let you go on so many vacations and travel around the world without thinking twice about your finances. But people are making 11 an hour, anon. Because there's no guarantee to advance anymore.

>I literally just want you guys to admit you hate the working class. Also, if you have a degree, you are not working class. Being considered working class has nothing to do with whether you have an education. It's about your occupation. Hint: You can be educated and be working class based on your job and lack of wealth privilege. Debt is not privilege.
>Also consider the fact we have debts as well. Okay and I'm sure you don't consider that debt–whether you spent it on food, clothes, rent, car, or shelter–a privilege.
>We also have the choice of saving up for something to buy, like a used car, and paying it off in full instead of getting a loan taken out. You know damn well you're not saving up and paying in full for a $40-60 new car. False equivalence. If college education were the price of a small junky beater car then literally no one would cry about having to pay a measly few grand. See: Europe.

I had to suffer with my debt, so everyone after me should too." The whole point of debt forgiveness is to relieve those who have already graduated
and those still in the process of getting their degree. Ultimately, you shouldn't have to pursue higher education in order to get a good paying job, but let's not pretend like every job shouldn't require someone to have to pursue higher education. Not to mention, plenty of confounding factors aside from socioeconomic status or the possession of a degree can contribute to someone ending up at a low paying job.

>>676868You really just believe we're low income because we don't know how to spend our own finances? You do realize you're assuming based on your own circumstances. We know our worth, what was need to buy, and we know how to be financially stable while in poverty. The largest demographic of high school dropouts are Latinos and only one forth of the overall low income Latino population is in some sort of government assistance, which is incredible because every other low income demographic sits at half of them being in government assistance. It's possible.

I think people should think harder about their financial decisions when it comes to opportunities, such as higher education. Yes, I do have that privilege of being able to reeee in the unpopular opinion forum of this website, with access to the internet. I understand I'm not at the bottom of the barrel, I would just like to understand why a third of the population would try to convince the rest of us why they should get monetary forgiveness. I could think of millions of others, such as those at the bottom of the barrel (who are more than likely in that position because they tried to reach out for help from the government), who deserve this help more than them, but of course, it is the government who chooses who they ultimately want to help.

>>676965So no one should get higher education? Or only the rich people that can pay for it? Then the people that can’t pay for a higher education should just not study because they can’t, which means they will have to find a job they might not want because maybe they saw themselves doing something that requires a higher education like… you know, teaching, because an online course isn’t the same as studying the whole career with the resources the university/college gives and the guidance the decent teachers/professors also give, specially if we’re talking about ED, which I’m pretty sure not everyone is already into, so the numbers of people studying something that requires a throughout preparation would lower and thus you would have lots of families struggling to keep their special needs children in a school system that is already quite a challenge for a common child.

is partially on people who made these jobs the way they are today, but some of them aren't even that bad and people are just whiny because they think cleaning jobs are below them.
Young people here are also incredibly spoiled. It's great they care about political issues but they never care about the most impactful ones because they're boring and hard to solve (which is why they are major issues). They don't want to give up their daily comforts because it's not their job to save the planet, but will throw money at black trans sex workers on GoFundMe to virtue signal and yell at you if you don't put #BLM in your instagram bio even though the US literally wanted to bomb your native country at the beginning of the year.
They don't care about people dying of pollution, women in Pakistan being maimed, Coca Cola buying off water supply in third world countries, they don't even care about similar issues in their own country because reading about them is ~too depressing~ but they are all about trans kweers of color and supporting kweer businesses by buying more sparkly trinkets from their instashop.
Many of them don't even have proper jobs, they live off disability benefits or their family's money and cry how hard they have it while expecting everyone to treat them like their mom and dad (while and the same time calling their parents
abusive for grounding them when they were 5).

>releasing that money when classes have obviously been paid forPaid for with government dollars. You're expecting the govt to just throw more money at something it already thew money at, which is only giving colleges the incentive to keep raising prices if they are aware people will just continuously take out higher loans. This inflation of prices is similar as to why medical bills are so expensive when you're paying with insurance. If you are not covered, the price is lowered, still unreasonable though. Someone without insurance will be paying $90 out of pocket for a check-up, meanwhile someone covered will be charged $230 with a $20 copay for the same checkup procedure.
>there's not enough positions about its better to let go of interest and debt and let people fucking spend so the economy and capital can increaseThere are jobs becoming available every day because the population is increasing and industries get bigger because of it. Maybe not available in a 3 mile radius, but within a 15 mile radius, there's tons more positions. Also, let people spend on what? Things that are unnecessary? You are just letting people get away with less responsibilities. Honestly, why are these people more deserving of $50k when there are people who make $10k a year? That's 5 years of someone's life. $50k for college graduates is a half year of their life. This is just telling those at the lower end they are not worthy of help unless they sacrifice their flow of income, affecting their work-life balance to either switch to part time, risk losing their established job, or stay full time and use up their free time to sign up for schooling and take out loans if the options available to them aren't cheap enough.

The fact someone did a self destructive act for attention shouldn't be automatically considered a reason to invalidate the attempt; and it really seems to be.

I think consideration of the individual needs to be taken into account for self diagnosis even for obvious ones like anxiety and depression.
Some people misdiagnose even these for clout as you mentioned they do for other "trendy" mental illnesses.

uncomfortable and feeling like u are out of ur comfort zone. it's not wanting to improve yourself, being lazy and not actively trying to grow as a person. and it's taking ur fandom stuff waaaaay too seriously. as long as u are self-aware i think it's somewhat hard to even become a fandom loser.

I got crushed several times in my previous jobs and nobody supported me. All my friends and family basically said to "not become a leech" and to "grow up" whenever I expressed my problems. It got so bad that I ended up on meds during my NEET period. I'm doing better now, thankfully, but just the idea of being in an office or retail environment for 8 hours a day, meetings, performance reviews, etc, trigger the hell out of me. My current job is remote and all my communications with the company are via email or text, so it's as close to ideal as it gets.

Today's youngest generation could genuinely, objectively improve if they end up being the first generation to
not treat the generation following them that way.
On that note, it's funny to see so many early gen-z's trying to convince themselves they're "totally not a zoomer, i'm a late millennial i swear!!! i remember vhs tapes!!" because they're scared of being called "zoomer" online.

He will react in two ways: give up (the trash takes itself out) or he will do everything he can to “win” you as to keep his ego intact.
The male psyche is constant contradiction, they may fuck anything that moves but they LOVE a carrot on a stick. They may complain about how women are hard to get and how they wish for a simple low maintenance girl and how much they hate all the cock teasing but it’s all a massive cope. Men love the chase, they love working for what they think is
worth it. Simply by being the elusive one, they believe that you have something of worth more than women who kowtow to them. Always remember that.

I tried to develop an appreciation for and understanding of (certain) contemporary art but all I got is that it's basically the result of an artist's contemplation about something and I'm supposed to care because instead of writing about it in their journal the artist decided to make a physical object for me to decrypt and I'm supposed to think that's great and valuable because it's ~deep~ and ~meaningful~
So I guess my unpopular opinion is that a lot of contemporary art is kind of stupid and made by self-absorbed individuals.

>>682411This is a pretty common opinion, anon.
Contemporary art is definitely polarizing (and can feed into money laundering and clout chasing and inflated egos yadadada) but it doesn't always have to be deep. Sure, there's artists who definitely have a specific message (like Dred Scott), but a lot of conceptual and abstract work is an attempt to capture a vibe or mood. Sometimes it's something as universal as "loneliness", but there's also artists who encapsulate the abstract vibe of having to eat microwavable waffles for an entire year in an effort to save money (and so they encase 365 waffles in resin or some shit). Some artists feel like the best way to conveying weird abstract feelings is with weird methods like that.
But yeah, specific emotions and understandings aren't universal so if you don't get
it, you don't
get it. That's not a bad thing. It's just you and the artist/work don't click.
Also a lot of stuff is just done for the aesthetic and craftmanship of it.
Your picture could be the result of someone going "woah, how would I go about wrapping a safety cone with fur in a seamless way", and not some ten page essay about how the fur industry needs to be shut down or whatever.
Sorry for the essay. I'm just sad that contemporary fine art is positioned as this impenetrable, pretentious ideology when so much of it is fun and sincere. The bigger issue is with art critics, collectors, and curators–they're the ones who really push the exclusivity.
Also that piece is ugly and I find nothing redeemable about it.

Radfems in particular host people who are recently disillusioned libfems and crossed to the other side to lick their wounds and are now sperging all over the place to get it off their system, but also people who have been traumatized and developed unhealthy copes to deal with it and have been reduced into seething black holes of hate. Feminism, whichever sect, evokes a lot of feelings in women because it's intertwined into our everyday lives and it brings out a lot of emotions.
No. 682447
>>682445NTA but while I feel a lot of abstract contemporary art is just money laundering I agree with the "if you don't get it, you don't get it" sentiment. Personally to me there are some pieces that really speak to me and someone else might not look twice at it or understand it at all. Feelings are hard to explain and sometimes you just understand what the artist was inspired by because you experienced something similar.
>I'm just sad that contemporary fine art is positioned as this impenetrable, pretentious ideology when so much of it is fun and sincere. This I really agree about.

>>682446This is very true. Honestly, I’m glad I managed to find a middle ground. I feel bad for anyone who is reduced to a black hole of hatred… been there, it isn’t a good way to live.
>>682424I agree. The general principles and foundations are good, but there’s so much nuance missing when certain things are being discussed. Especially when it comes to things that are not related to male violence. It took me so long to realize my female friends were
toxic and abusing me because I was always told they’d never hurt me. Sisterhood really ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be and healthy and supportive people in your life >>> sisterhood
>>682415This so much. There’s so much open racism, ableism, etc. that it’s ultimately divided and becomes a shadow of itself. The treatment of bisexual and straight women can be abysmal, especially if they have an opinion that doesn’t align with radical feminism even though it’s not a bad one to have.

>>682415As a radfem, I agree with many things you girls said but sadly that's just the fate of many online communities kek
>feminism is a 1st world problemHowever this never fails to piss me off. I come from a shithole, I'm poor as hell and the reason I consider myself a radfem is because I've had it much worse than many other women that live in countries that are better off. I've experienced and observed insanely shitty treatment of women and that's why my opinions are the way they are, not because I'm a bored rich white girl that has nothing to complain about. From my point of view, libfems are the ones that usually come from more privileged backgrounds because if they truly knew how bad women had it they wouldn't be so sw and tranny positive for example.

>>682497This "women in 3rd world countries know what true misogyny is!!" argument is absolutely unnecessary. Just because we don't get stoned for being raped or sold off to be child brides doesn't mean we don't experience misogyny and sexism that shouldn't be fixed. Women didn't have the right to vote until the early to mid 1900s depending on the country, weren't allowed to own private property or even bank accounts until maybe the 1960s. It's not like we've been considered human beings for ages at this point and despite all the laws made to protect us people still find ways to go around them and women are still earning less than men and getting absolutely screwed in divorce courts.
The evil blue haired feminists who seem to "blow shit out of proportion" probably would've been considered to do the same when they were demanding rape in marriage to be considered a crime in the 80s because "of course sex in marriage is always consensual". Women are
still being killed by their SOs at high numbers and are
still much more likely to die from partner abuse than men. Now that trannies are actually demanding to take over female seats in city councils like New York (it happened, google Emilia Decaudin) we're starting to regress again, which only signals that we must not ever lull ourselves into some false sense of security that "we don't need feminism in the first world anymore because I can drive a car and go outside without a male minder".
No. 682638
>>682634Thanks for posting this, I couldn't be bothered formulating an argument so I'm glad someone did. It's insulting and dangerous to act like women in 1st world countries aren't allowed to stand up for our rights just because we aren't suffering the worst of the worst misogyny. If we can't make progress with all our freedom and money, how the fuck will less developed countries? Feminism needs to grow in order to eventually gain more global influence, not get sidelined out of fear of seeming like an evil privileged ~white feminist~.
>We're starting to regress again, which only signals that we must not ever lull ourselves into some false sense of security tDefinitely. Feminism needs to be an ongoing, persistent effort because the more power we gain, the more men lose and the more backlash there is. You can't let up for a second or they'll do what they can to reverse it.

>>682634You missed my point entirely.
Liberal feminism is a first world thing and that everyone outside of America and Europe is by default a radical feminist, if they are a feminist at all, certain privileged groups notwithstanding. Therefore, being angry at radical feminists as a whole is stupid since it's the only legitimate kind of feminism there is in 2020 that fights for women's rights exclusively without pandering to men or corporations. If you are indeed upset with radical feminists for being "
toxic", then look abroad instead of writing things off based on how people in your neighbourhood act.
It has nothing to do with rich Western women not experiencing misogyny.

>>682541This reminds me of the time I was desperate for a job and applying for hundreds. Employment in the area was really low and 100+ people would apply for a cleaning job. I got a call back from a ‘marketing agency’ and asked to come in for an interview. The interviewer was wearing a flashy suit and took me out to a hipster cafe to chat. After a load of business-speak crap he told me the role was knocking on people’s doors and getting them to sign up for charity donations.
“So it’s minimum wage?”
“No, you only get paid for commissions, but you can easily sign up 4 people an hour and earn £XX”
“Is that… legal?”
“Haha yeah! You’d be freelance, you just have to pay an accountant £100 every tax year to sort out your taxes”
“So… I’d be working for myself?”
“… yeah”
“Why am I at a job interview then?”
I was desperate for a job but even I had to say no to that shit.
>>682555I disagree with the method entirely but the rationale is that they don’t get enough through random donations. People often will throw some change in a charity tin or round up the payment on a card machine but that’s nothing compared to donating $50 a month. The aggressive tactics are because genuine charity workers shaking buckets are often ignored (and they have less motivation if they’re not earning a commission). The aim is that you will sign up and forget about the direct debit, though I would argue that most people would cancel it straightaway after such an unpleasant encounter.
No. 682653
>>682649No. According to studies and statistics women are more likely to lose their quality of life after divorce. They're the ones who usually have to sacrifice their career and income to take care of the kids, and the legal fees in divorce court cuts them a lot deeper than the husband. And because women are often given the custody of the kids (because in most cases the men don't want sole custody) they'll have to support them on a single person's income. A lot of them are also divorcing because of an
abusive husband and struggle with mental health issues caused by the relationship and are more likely unable to work.
https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2016/04/the-divorce-gap/480333/>Despite the common perception that women make out better than men in divorce proceedings, women who worked before, during, or after their marriages see a 20 percent decline in income when their marriages end, according to Stephen Jenkins, a professor at the London School of Economics. His research found that men, meanwhile, tend to see their incomes rise more than 30 percent post-divorce. Meanwhile, the poverty rate for separated women is 27 percent, nearly triple the figure for separated men.And here's a good article summarizing how women get screwed over in divorce court because their allegations of being raped or abused in marriage aren't taken seriously:

>>682640According to a friend who lived in India, many feminists were against non-gendered rape laws and actively fought against men being able to be
victims of rape. However, the laws they have basically only cover male-on-female rape which basically means female rapists can get off the hook and their
victims get no recourse. Similarly, in some SK boards, female pedophiles are regularly encouraged and defended and some Asian countries have similarly gendered rape laws.
It isn't just about rich western women. Sometimes it's about genuine issues that should be addressed but instead are lost in some power struggle or justification for doing/saying some actually fucked up shit and hypocrisy and it goes unaddressed.

Arachnophbia is what i have, and it boils my blood whenever someone in my family or a random stranger just tells me "oh they are more scared of you than you are of them" or they show me pictures of spiders which gives me alot of anxiety.

The reason feminism, and especially radical feminism, exists is so women have a voice and can fight for rights and justice they do not have. Men's issues are not relevant to women or feminism because they do not affect women. Men have all the power so they should expend some of that to condemn female rapists if it truly is such a problem.
It isn't just about rich western women, you're right. It's about rich women (the privileged minorities I mentioned) overall. Nobody addresses these things because these people have wealth and power to defend themselves.
No. 682740
>>682676Because I had been told that I was awful, that I deserved to be abused, that I deserved to be raped, etc. because of my interest in BDSM and attraction to men. I've repeatedly been told that it was my fault if a woman got raped because I wasn't staunchly against BDSM or sex work between consenting adults. I've met and read about radfems who've raped other women and have preyed on minors and children. In fact, even when I tried to come out about my abuse at the hands of a female peer, I had been told that it was no big deal, that I deserved it, etc. because of her justifications for abusing me. And many of this when I was still a child myself.
Even now in non-anon places like Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, etc., or hell, even other image boards, I've been told female on female rape "isn't that bad" because there is no risk of pregnancy. I've gotten messages on tumblr from radfems saying that I (and other women) who decide to participate in BDSM or sex work deserve to be raped, beaten, etc. I've gotten and have seen messages from other radfems saying bisexual women are just straight women and deserve to be abused for being in relationships with men because "all men are
abusive" and if you decide to be in a relationship with one, there's no way you couldn't have wanted or seen the abuse coming. Then you have the ones who justify mothers abusing their female daughters because of the "pain of womanhood" or that "it's the mans fault" when a woman kills or abuses her own children and the absolute disregard for people with
abusive mothers.
It is legitimately no better than an incel especially when other radfems see, reblog, etc., and don't even bother calling out the fact that another radfem said that a woman deserved to be raped or beaten because of participating in sex work or BDSM. At most, I've gotten a "Well /I/ didn't say it and I don't agree with them." but then they go right back to agreeing with the person.
Yes, at its core it may be about accepting women and fighting for their rights. But the core of almost any ideology is good on paper. When
toxic and vile things within an ideology go unchallenged beyond "well I don't agree", "Well they aren't an actual xyz", etc. it taints it.
So to answer your question, yes I have considered that it may just be a "me" problem because I had been told repeatedly that I deserved to be abused, raped, to kill myself, etc. by the same radfems who said they were fighting for my rights as a woman and that I was obligated to fight alongside them. Obligatory "not all" but just like when it comes to men, if there are "just enough" to justify hating them, it's the same for many radical feminists and women. There are "just enough" to where the ideology can be considered
toxic when it becomes more about justifying being awful rather than leveling the playing field and maintaining rights for women.

Yes,
victims of rape should be protected but just because you may not have acid thrown in your face or killed doesn't mean you are any less a
victim of rape. Women can rape other women– one of the biggest flaws in gendered rape laws. Raping someone or pedophilia should be in no way defendable, excusable, or justifiable. That should not be a controversial statement.

Recycling is obviously good but the literal pennies charities earn per sack isn’t worth the time or effort.

>>684202ew, a mtf getting with a cis woman. like that ever happens irl. definitely not watching it now. not here to entertain scrote fantasies

>>684853the focus on the dicks is always extreme. i've seen sfm porn where it just shows a dick for most of the animation then pans up and oh haha it's a woman with boobs! totally not gay to focus so hard on taking a big huge dick in your mouth or ass.
and as a bi woman who knows bi dudes, none of them are into futa. it's pretty much exclusively for closeted male nerds. it doesn't appeal to straight people and bi people will just look at whatever gender without having to swap genitals around (don't get on my case for transgender shit because futa ain't trans porn.)

>>684848this isn't unpopular to me at all, I have a super TRA friend who found out this soyboy she was into liked this kind of shit. She broke off all contact and flat out told me, "he likes chicks with dicks and I don't have a dick" and later told me men like that don't belong with "Cis" women. She tried to say in the nicest way that he was a bisexual/gay in the closet tranny chasing coomer, who could'nt admit it and called himself "Straight" but that wouldn't be "woke".
This isn't the first time i've seen TRA women not want to deal with men into troons either. Most men and women know what men into this shit truly are. They are attracted to the dick.

>>684854I don't mean to be inflammatory when I say this but I legitimately did not know Hunter was trans when I watched the show for the first time. I thought the reason Jules was in a psychiatrist hospital was because she was suicidal, not because her parents sent her there for being trans
and being suicidal.
>>684869I knew Indya Moore was trans though bc I went into watching Pose with knowledge that it was about ballroom culture and trans people during a certain time period.

>>684869I mean tbf, I think people like them, Kim Petras, and Amiyah Scott (pic) are as passing as a trans person can be. Even if they are on hormones from an early age, and are lucky enough to look effeminate, it's pretty much impossible to completely look like the opposite gender.

>>684874I met this troon, one he does not look like this irl, he looks good and worlds better then most, but he had on a shit ton of make up bothced titties and a big pointy head, he also rolled his eyes at me for NO reason.
I remember when I saw his boyfriend, this very handsome guy and my friend swore the guy was straight because he was with Amiyah, then I found out the relationship was rumored to be fake and the last I heard the guy Amiyah was with (a very well known hair dresser) was dating a whole man.
I never got to rub it in my friend's face
No. 684927
>>684906both probably. For some reason the somewhat passing ones are more outwardly rude without reason. The other day I saw Amiyah saying that a reality star (who is a woman) should get over being hit because, "bitches get hit for talking shit everyday", he deleted the tweet but I saw it on lipstick alley and I was like, "yeah, this the same jealous drag queen that rolled his eyes at me for no reason".
Did nothing to his big headed bad tittied ass.

>>684920i'm a bi cis woman and i'd never date a mtf unless they were super pretty, fashionable and passing like hunter etc. none of my friends would either though we'll avoid the topic if it comes up because some people get extremely buttblustered over this topic. the vast majority of cis women, regardless of sexuality, don't trust trans women in that way.
also it's insulting to imply bi people are ok with it because lol male with dick!

>>684934People who unload their anxiety issues onto sellers. Typically the type of buyers who need handholding for everything, flood your inbox if you don't reply within the same day, still flood your inbox after you shipped asking why their package which travels across the globe isn't there yet within 3 days, constantly have their fingers on the "open case" button etc.
These people get absolutely coddled in customer service when they should be punished and banned until they seek professional help.
No. 684959
>>684956First and foremost, you never have to date anyone you don't want to. That doesn't make you transphobic or a bad person, and you don't have to examine your preferences or whatever it is that they say regarding that.
Secondly, you're beyond fine saying that here kek.

>>684956This is just mocking
>>684938 right?
>>684961I guess it's unpopular in the sense that you'd be cancelled for it on most places of the internet. But I don't doubt that most straight people irl wouldn't date transpeople, especially if they haven't transitioned.

>>685029same! also houses require way more maintenance. sure it's your own property, at least once you pay it off (which is quite a huge commitment you might not even be able to keep), but that comes with fixing everything yourself. and i don't necessarily want to live in the same place my entire life. i always think about this scene in 'up' when i think about a big reason i prefer apartments. so many houses around me suffer this fate. everything around them is knocked down and made into more roads or something. i see so many homes in awful spots, traffic all around. i can't imagine how depressing it'd be to be in that situation.
there are just too many people on earth these days to have a house unless you live in the middle of nowhere. apartments are, weirdly, more comforting in their lack of permanence.

>>684997they also understand misogyny and male privilege, having grown up with it, so they automatically get you better than cis men.

>>685881>It's not very safe for a single woman to live on her ownStatistically you're in way more danger if you live with a man lol.
But yeah, it's more likely for women to still be living with their parents to have some care taker role where they're looking after a family member while with men they're the ones getting looked after.
No. 685887
>>685886Yeah but I mean like loving with roommates or a gf not a man. Women living alone are at risk for stalkers etc
If they have a good stable family that's likely safer for them than living alone.

>>685920I think the money issues come first. They shouldn't need to rate women on a scale of "worth it" or not when the cost of going out is minimal for anyone with a job.
Just poorfags creating a moral standard around their own poverty.
