MossyFeathers

I too, would be upset if my hypothetical partner had more kills than me. Excuse me, I'm the killing machine here. I'm the one who's body is designed to rip and tear and glide through the air! You're making me look lazy.

How dare u!

(I will almost always take the chance to make fun of the act of using "headcount" or "bodycount" to refer to the number of sexual partners someone has had.)

Fuck you, get back over here. How dare you steal our happiness.

Are those all houses, or are there shops mixed in? Imagine living at the bottom but having a shop at the top.

I think you're misunderstanding what feminists mean when they say, "all men can be rapists". It's alright, I used to be in your shoes too, sometimes people are just bad at explaining themselves, so lemme try and explain my understanding of the statement.

They're not saying that men are rapists, what they're trying to say is that men have been trained to pursue relationships in a way that can be coercive and can lead to rape without the man realizing he's doing anything wrong (I'll go into how a man could """accidentally""" rape someone near the end).

A good example of this is "Baby, it's cold outside". The song is about a man trying to convince a women to stay the night with him. The song takes the form of the woman finding reasons to leave, while the man finds reasons for her to stay. This was because, at the time, it was considered improper for a single lady to stay the night with a gentleman who's also single; they might get up to something, the horror!

Now, the song portrays this coersion as being possibly consensual; that, in the context of the song, the woman might want to stay, but feels compelled to go through the list of reasons she should leave so it isn't "improper". However, if you're engaging in roleplay like that, you need to set clear boundaries before you do, otherwise you risk someone getting hurt. Furthermore, standards have changed. It's no longer improper (in most places) for a woman to spend the night at a man's house, nor is it acceptable to try and convince a woman (or anyone for that matter) to sleep with you if they've said "no". Again, it is coercive, and you cannot derive consent from coersion unless it was clearly defined beforehand as part of role-play (consent can also be revoked, if someone tells you "stop", you stop).

Despite that, cultural momentum means that many young men are still taught that if a woman says "no", that just means you need to give her a better excuse to say "yes" ("she's just playing 'hard-to-get'").

You might be able to see how this is a bad thing, yes?

That is what I believe they're referring to. It's not that they think every man is a rapist just waiting to strike, it's that most men have been trained to "just try harder" if their lady friend says "no".

Edit: if I'm wrong, feel free to correct me.

You're probably gonna have to be more specific.

Radical feminist can refer to:

A hardcore feminist who goes to every rally and protest, donates money to things like planned parenthood and so on. - probably a cool person, but might have their head up their ass. However, their heart is probably in the right place regardless of their personality.

A misandrist. Fake feminist who hates men and believes men are the source of the world's problems. - almost certainly an asshole and should be avoided.

A terf, aka "trans-exclusionary radical feminist". Also a fake feminist. They don't believe trans women are women and seek to exclude them. - asshole, avoid at all costs; tend to call themselves "gender critical" because the real feminists got tired of their bullshit and started kicking them out.

Okay, but that's not on the ancient aliens people. According to your Wikipedia page, it wasn't ancient alien theorists trying to prove bullshit that destroyed them, that was done by Christian nutjobs hundreds of years before anyone came up with the idea of ancient aliens.

Nah. It's "ancient" vs "modern". "Modern" is anything well-documented or easily translated into English, "ancient" is anything that lacks documentation or has ambiguous translations. Some things I've seen ancient alien people freak out about: Stonehinge, pyramids, roman dodecahedrons, antikythera mechanism, ancient astronauts, UFOs in medieval/Renaissance art (yes, that is supposedly a thing), Nazca lines, and more.

My point is that anything even remotely weird or inexplicable with any historical ambiguity is up for grabs when it comes to ancient alien theories. At least, that's been my observation.

*shrug*

Tbf, I'd also be kinda pissed if I bought a meme banana and it wasn't the size of a real banana. You had one job...

Please help them! They may not be able to get separated without human intervention.

Eh.... I'm just... Not sure a one-state solution would end well, even if you could get past the US. It's not that I like Israel, I hate everything that Israel is doing right now. I'm absolutely disgusted by the way they've been treating the Palestinians. However, I also don't want to see more violence and bloodshed. I've been sickened by the never ending march of dead bodies that our horrid, god-forsaken species seems to crave.

I want a solution that will result in the least amount of violence and death, and I think something like a two-state solution is more likely to achieve that than telling Israelis that they're now under Palestinian control.

I guess you also believe there's a "White Genocide" going on in South Africa, right?

Plkease stop looking at the world like a white supremacist. For your own sake.

Jesus fuck if that's really what you got from my comment then you need to get off the Internet and get some serious help, dude.

Are you okay? I'm actually kinda concerned.

Yep. That's why I personally think it's dumb to try and argue for the dissolution of Israel at this point. It's too late. All you can do at this point is damage control and to try and find an equitable solution to the Israel-Palestine problem that gives both groups the ability to self-govern.

It'd be like kicking all the Russians out of former USSR countries, or Chinese out of Tibet, or white people out of the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

Israel should be held accountable for what they've done to the Palestinians, but I also don't think you can reasonably expect for everyone in Israel to pack up and leave at this point.
