I don't know if it's an age thing or what, but I've started noticing how most people have a one-track mind too. Not that I don't ever fall into that either, but it's difficult when you really wanna get deep on a topic and they're unwilling or unable to budge. It's part of what makes the discussion of anything political absolutely insufferable on either side of the fence.
I find most people have a one track mind and won't even consider your view point, but, also think, feel, w/e, that you're attacking them. I'm use to people having conviction behind their beliefs and standing by them. But even doing that is seen as "aggressive".
Standpoint feminism -- only those in the identity groups can understand what their experiences are like, unless we're talking about men.
Even if you are part of that identity group, they'll add another modifier to it. I'm a first gen American, I tick basically all the diversity boxes for that bullshit; but, I speak english well and I'm white. I also don't talk about it 24/7. Somehow, my experiences, beliefs, w/e, aren't valid because "you white tho". Friendly reminder, only the lazy and the stupid can't learn english.
Those are what we call Bad Friends. Dump them.
They dumped me when I got a bit depressed that my engagement fell through and no longer had a kid and in-laws etc...ya know, the important things in life (to me). So mission accomplished I suppose. It took me too long to realise they were bad friends.
If she's not actively baking, and can't show you pictures of what she baked, she doesn't bake.
Agreed. Fuck I'm a simple man, I'll teach a girl how to bake. Baking is the easiest fucking thing to do if you're just following instructions. To be clear, this isn't me going "Me want slave cook", I think it just shows what kind of person you are. I imagine it's the same as a woman wanting a guy who is "good with his hands"; you don't need to be a master tech, but being able to assemble ikea furniture and not lose your mind is something.
Better a woman with a body count who treats you like a king than a virgin that'll cheat. More to life than body count, although excessive numbers are a red flag, but even modern virgins can have the mindset of a whore.
Oh, agreed. It's not "ideal" but nothing is. I meant literal whore. She fucked, at least, 3 guys to get pregnant. She had this whole story about a one night stand after her divource, but as our relationship went on, more and more of the real story came out. She never admitted that she just wanted a baby, but it's pretty clear that was the case. She got knocked up at 15 too but had a miscarriage. I was just a fool who believed her story and figured hey, shit happens w/e, I like you let's see where it goes.
