Pick-me women / #NotLikeTheOtherGirls General

[Stan]

Well fattie, I do know, I just don't run around screaming "I LOVE SCIENCE" like a retard. I don't show off my expertise in quantum mechanics because nobody gives a fuck except other physics nerds.

lol this is the go to insult for tard wave feminists: "lol u r not a wahman" if you don't subscribe to their brand of feminist bastshittery. I prefer the company of men, not because I want to have sex with them but because they can have a convo without making it about them. Something you need to learn to do.

I'm not a Protestant so I could care less.

Get a load of this pickme. She’s trying to mog me about shade-tree car repair.

In re adoption: adoption rates in first world countries have dived off a cliff since IVF became widely available, particularly in countries where the state healthcare system picks up some or all of the cost.

There aren’t many children available for adoption. International adoptions have become much more rare now that it’s come to light that many children adopted from developing nations were straight up stolen from their families. There’s innumerable stories from all over the world of women being told their children died during birth while the infant was actually sold to an adoption agency.

At least in the US the foster system values reuniting biological children with their families over adoption. Often the children available for adoption from the foster system are in sibling sets, older, and dealing with years of difficult trauma.

If you need to put effort into being not like the others, then you are just like the others.
People should learn to value being regular simple individuals with common traits and interests with others, this allows you to connect with others and avoid lonleliness being different is a burden it's not very fun.
P.s.
I don't mean to include quirky pretty little traits like a a strip of white hair or eyes having uneven color.

alright srsly when did this thread become the impromptu spot for the resident BP plastics to start dragging in their off-topic beef? shut up and take it to PMs

Here's something I found. Tumblr blog @tradflowr. It's too edgeless for Lori Alexander, somehow.
Here are some highlights.

lol.

Come to think of it, it wouldn't be suspect to assume this is yet another man pretending to be a tradwife on the internet, given the fact s(he) reblogs from fetish blogs.

I’m sure there are more reasons than these, but this is what comes to mind today!
1. Hormonal issues: women simply have more day-to-day biological fluctuations than men due to their menstrual cycle. These fluctuations mean unpredictable moods, energy, and productivity levels. It’s quite impractical to rearrange the world to suit optimization of menstrual cycle, menopause, pregnancy, and post-partum related emotional and physical changes. Each woman’s body and mind are unique so structuring the world this way is close to impossible!
The instability and unpredictability that comes with women’s hormones is simply better suited for the home. At home, a woman can set her own schedule (for the most part) and adjust it as necessary, and likewise her husband will learn know when to demand less or more from her, and when to offer additional guidance if her brain gets overwhelmed.
Even if a woman can manage some of these fluctuations via medication or is post-menopausal or otherwise no longer experiences them as strongly as before, it can still be argued that due to social conditioning, a woman will still likely be more emotionally unstable than a man at work, especially when she is simultaneously battling being a woman in a male-centric world, as is with most workplaces (and is simply the basis of the workforce at large).
2. More time to maintain her appearance: it’s important that men look after their appearance, but unlike men, a woman’s value rests primarily in hers, and likewise she generally spends more time and effort on achieving her (and her husband’s!) desired look.
By staying at home, not only does a woman have more time to put herself together and do her beauty routines, but she is also not rushed and therefore such routines can turn from chores into joyful acts of self-care, as well as acts of service to her husband. Women can use this opportunity to turn their bodies into the works of art they are meant to be, while connecting them to their sensuality in the process.
3. On the topic of sensuality, more time to feel sensual! Being able to relax into one’s femininity is more likely to help a woman stay aroused. Not having to worry about life outside the home will relax a woman and clear her mind, keeping her wet and happy and ready for her husband to use her sexually. She will also have more time to edge, which is also self-care and service to her husband.
4. Same goes for maintaining the home! Instead of cleaning being drudgerous, it will be seen as fulfilling work that she and her loved ones get to benefit from directly, and she will feel the ultimate feminine success in such. Beyond cleaning, a woman will have more time to beautify her home and explore domestic arts, and turn everyday events, such as a simple dinnertime, into celebrations with her family.
5. Childrearing: it is simply impractical and a waste of time, energy, and brainpower, to go down a career-path just to stop it midway when it is time to have children. Even the most progressive women out there will admit that children are better off with a stay-at-home mother; it is the ideal choice to have someone that dedicated to their well-being, and a mother who goes back to work cannot be said to be a better mother than one who has more time and energy for her children.
Even if a couple is unsure about if or when to have kids, preparing for the possibility is always a good decision and worth leaning into preparing the ideal home life for them to be raised in. And when the kids are all grown? A woman will have learned many homemaking skills from raising them, that will carry her into her later years and only help her to serve her husband better.
And last, but perhaps most importantly—
6. It helps men be men! Staying home while her husband goes to work reinforces his role as provider and head of the household, which makes him feel happy and secure in his masculinity. This ultimately leads to a more harmonious relationship between a man and his wife, allowing him to fully focus on excelling in his career, relaxing with his family, and not much else. He will look forward to coming home to his woman every day, and what woman doesn’t want that more than anything?
Be a good girl, and stay home for your man.

Alright. Half way writing this post I've discovered that theabstractnoun is the real star here.

Are we thinking troon? I am.

Also this might be veering off topic so I have to end it here, but I can guarantee the number of women who will simp for shit like this is not zero. Also I gave up archiving because archive.today is fucked for me. Also soz.

I've been wondering about this: is a pick-me the reverse of a simp? As in someone who undervalues themselves and goes overboard in accommodating the other sex?

I've almost never seen a woman blame someone for being a simp (and sometimes even encourage it) and I've not yet heard a man blame someone for being a pick-me. And when I read the reasons why someone is called a pick-me sometimes I think: That's kinda nice. The way I presume women think plenty of simp behavior is nice (as long as something isn't expected for it in return). Just curious to get some other perspectives on this.

I'd say. Although it's not helpful that general civility and learning to pick your battles (rather than every battle) now falls under pick-me behavior. Sorry, but I can't be a gender warrior everyday.

IMO, a pick-me will not have any substance outside vouching for the approval of the other sex. They will also be more inclined to take their favored sex's side even in a losing battle (often literally strangers!) As an extension, notlikeothergirls girls in particular will consistently paint the rest of their own sex as 'boring boring boring vapid vapid vapid selfish selfish selfish' and themselves as 'awesome-never-done-befo-i'm-a-total-catch'.

In males I think this manifests more as a 'omg guys leave her alooooone' super-gentleman who with defend his fair maiden against all those toxic misogynist males. Not to be confused with NiceGuys, which are a whole different package. Male pick-mes tend to not be as overtly self-advertizing as females, I for one have never seen a simp make a graphic like this:

*I really hate this trend of 'lol awe they're actual lesbians and in luuuuuuve' because it makes it damn near impossible to find genuine examples of 'other girls vs me' art.


But they will make these corny 'i-will-save-the-day' type comics, like these:

I can jive with the concept of killing your traitors before your enemies, and I think that's part of whats happening when you see radicals of either side bashing their own pick-mes/simps much harder than each other.

While the affections of the simp/pick-me might seem 'nice' to an outside observer, that kind of desperation translates to suffocating control when you actually enter a relationship with these sorts of people. Or if not control then definitely cumbersome dependence and clingy-ness.

Pick me is a term that had been used improperly for quite some time. It doesn't necessarily imply that the pick me undervalue themselves (they are narcissists with a sophisticated disguise) they create an image that is different from the others fabricating false uniqueness artificially increasing their social value.
However...
Let's not forget about feminism and innate narcissism of the whole female sex(don't forget about neurological differences which gives women disadvantage in analyzing information) with this in mind we can identify the group of women who put label of Pick me on any other woman with whom they disagree and some of them are in this thread
P.s.
You bitter bitches, not everyone who sits quite in their place and behave are Pick mes.

 

[umami's milk]

innate narcissism of the whole female sex(don't forget about neurological differences which gives women disadvantage in analyzing information)

pick-mes would agree.

 

[Dylan]

I

pick-mes would agree.

This is scientific information.
Narcissism prevents the narcissist to admit and address the issue of narcissism.

no sauces+no1curr. This isn't the thread to argue about the shortcomings of women as a whole. It's been done to death and you may do it to your hearts content here, here, or over at A&N. This is the thread where we (hopefully) discuss attention-seeking little snowflakes.

Snowtown was a great film, though.

Torturing, murdering and eating people is still morally wrong, even if they make a really good movie about you afterwards.

Pretty sure this is a whole fetish community on tumblr. Can’t recall if it’s humiliation or daddy shit.
I remember this making the rounds at one point and everyone was like “wtf is this?”

 

[starbies]

Are we thinking troon? I am.

the chin and tit-placement screams tranny. it's just one of those dime-a-dozen fags with tradwife fetish

I really hate this trend of 'lol awe they're actual lesbians and in luuuuuuve' because it makes it damn near impossible to find genuine examples of 'other girls vs me' art.

same here, actually. it was quirky the first time, then it got super stale super fast.

I can guarantee the number of women who will simp for shit like this is not zero.

oh absolutely, especially on tumblr these days. it's really funny when you come across some porn-sharing/ana-chan/coquette/nymphette/ddlg type account and you scroll through them - it's porn, porn, porn, random powerlevelling, gaiz we hatez the terfs and transphobia around here, no transphobia allowed uwu, some more porn

 

[starbies]

Anyway, I came across this youtuber on some news of potential "ministry for men"

I actually agree with her a lot of the time, but damn if she doesn't come off as a massive pickme with the dumbest logic
"oh we have a ministry for women so we should have a ministry for men duhh"

bonus for intentionally misunderstanding the women's points in the video like a good little NLOG

 

[AmberHeardSupporter]

Last little bit of cattiness before I block her but look at lil miss feminist liking deranged misogynistic posts while sperging that women are the real misogynists


the call is coming from inside the house

oh and a little bit more I guess

it does. But that’s ok because the men she needs to suck up to very much love her existence and treat her with due respect

it’s ok tho. She’ll get picked one day!

 

[Lidl Drip]

We all see by Pearl Davis and Shoe0nHead's example that men just looooove pick-me's and just can't wait to wife them up!

 

[Hiphopopotamus]

I'm sorry but... eating butter? Just straight-up butter? Like the entire stick? The whole butter?!

Please tell me that one's a joke.

It used to be a joke.

RIP Trevor Moore, you were a man ahead of his time.

"They call me a pick-me for not hating ALL men!!!"



"Teehee silly boys I am a dumb hole who is in the kitchen and yes I make FOOD for my BOYFRIEND"

Men: *clapclapclap* YAAAAS QUEEEEN!!

Why do pick-me's think they are special for feeding their pet moids? It's only responsible pet ownership. They can't feed themselves afterall. It will continue to be embarrassing when women use "I AM IN THE KITCHEN COOKING LIKE A GOOD HOLE!" For online attention from men. And the men updoot it as if they will get any of that food.
