How did it go again

If it's black, fight back

If it's brown, lie down

If it's white, good night

I've experienced physical violence at the hands of 2 of my 3 long term partners. I swear some women think that if you're a fairly big man, it's fair game to hurt you. In reality my pain tolerance is average or below. I can take a hit, but holy hell does a near full force bite hurt.

Neither was an isolated incident either. Both were repeat offenders. Both claim I was violent when I've never done more than just block attacks. I'm not a violent person, I spent time at the gym bulking up to avoid fights in the first place, being a former bullying victim. My last ex knew all about my trauma, but got mad as shit when I accidentally hurt her wrist blocking an attack from her exactly one time. This after I had told her multiple times that if she kept trying, my self defense reflex might kick in at some point. Every time I told her to please be less violent, she brought that one time up and said I'm worse than her.

When I was under 18, most of my partners were of similar age (and on the Pill).

Lots of places have romeo and juliet clauses for this. I.e when it's two 16 year olds, it's fine. If it's 16 and 25, it's not.

It’s 16 in the UK, which in my view makes better sense. All of the EU countries set the age of consent somewhere in the 14-16 range.

16 is bordering fine, but anything below that is too low IMO. Again, the so called romeo and juliet laws are important here. It means that even if the age of consent is 18, teenagers can still do it among themselves and if you're 15 and your 17 year old partner suddenly turns 18, that usually isn't a big deal either. Let's protect teenagers from grown ass adults, but let them sleep with each other because that's going to happen anyway, teenagers are crazy filled with hormones - so they should be able to get contraceptives and stuff without any worry of legal repercussions if anyone finds out.

Until a few years ago, the age of consent in my country was 14. There weren't just 13 and 14 year olds with 19 or 20 year old boyfriends, even 14 and 25-27 was a pretty common combo. Guy I went to middle school with was such an immature dumbass, he HAD to work 14 year olds to get laid at 19. Because a 15 year old would see through him already. Think he's changed now, but of course he had to father a child with a 15 year old first.

But this isn't the 80s or 90s. No, I grew up in the '00s and '10s. This is my experience with my peers in late 00s and even early 10s.

I don't know any teenagers anymore, but there's a podcast about sex and standup comedy (they wanna talk about standup comedy since they're both comedians, but since they named it "pussy eaters", they only get emails about sex) and holy hell, one girl out of every 4 seems hell-bent on talking about how they lost their virginity as a teenager to an older guy. Another girl out of every four is talking about how she either got raped or almost got raped (as an adult usually, not that it makes things much better). They just stopped reading emails from their listeners.

Even in my tiny country. Small town bus makes stop if you stand up or someone's waiting, capital city bus makes every stop, other city bus needs to be prompted by the light.

So I definitely missed my stop first time I took the bus in the other city lol

Probably got hit by autocorrect lol

Ah, better than what we have in Estonia then

I clearly meant there's just more ports. Framework aside, you've never really been able to choose your own ports.

The Pro still has TB4 too, in addition to the legacy ports.

98th percentile which should mean 130 but tests differ so who knows really

Or IQ is a useless measure

EID and equivalents are great for a lot of things, but do you want your porn site to know who you are? The new app is supposed to verify your age but not give out your PII. Not sure eID can do that?

Pretty sure that's a 15" Pro not an Air, that comes with twice as many ports standard. Of course they were all Thunderbolt 3 lol.

But these are out of production anyway. Newer ones have more port choice again. Airs still only get thunderbolt 4.
