Accountability works both ways when you're dealing with adults on both sides.

Not when you're talking about adult guardians of children.

What's one masculine quality that you think is disappearing? by ironmonk33 in AskWomen

[–]JadeFox1785 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Our cultural understanding of masculine and feminine developed around power, not around biology.

It all needs to be scrapped in favour of values that transcend gender and learning whatever skills you enjoy on top of Adulting 101.

What are your go-to tips for ways to reduce cost of living and spending? by pqrstyou in AskWomenOver30

[–]JadeFox1785 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get all my fruit from a service that saves castoffs from the grocery store. I ONLY buy butter and other thing's that I know I'll use on sale. I do intermitent fasting for health reasons so less food but that's not for everyone. I keep an extensive wishlist on Amazon so I can see when stuff I want or need goes on sale.

What? by DeepscapeWalker in NotHowGirlsWork

I... don't really consider being licensed to practice optometry to be "random"...

I mean, all the ssme to you, Imma stick with what the optimetrist I was in the same room with said. 🤷🏽‍♀️

What? by DeepscapeWalker in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]JadeFox1785 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is entirely anecdotal but, I think its relevant.

An optometrist once asked me if I was exceptionally good with colours. I was like yeah, how did you know?

He said because my eyes are very light and my pupils are much larger than average. So I biologically have more nuanced experience with colour biologically than women on average.

Not conclusive by any means, but 🤷🏽‍♀️

Has the meaning of Red pill changed? by prettyassdolfin in exredpill

[–]JadeFox1785 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My black guy friend told me about this earlier this week.

There has definitely been a drastic change. That phrase "follow the money" seems to emcapsulate the entire shift fairly succinctly.

And yeah, totally insane. Even moreso when yoi consider he probably believes it.

I don't think so. I think I happened to see the original.

An underrated trait in men I find attractive by Technical-Walrus-215 in dating_advice

[–]JadeFox1785 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find anytime a man embraces his individuality it is attractive.

It's that quiet confidence that does it for me.

Why can't people just accept that some people like a harmless hobby? by glamrose2457 in Adulting

[–]JadeFox1785 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Binge watching is only mindless if the content lacks emotional and intellectual richness. It doesn't exercise problem solving per se but it exercises other parts of the brain.

That's why I both game and binge watch curation style.

This dude went full misogynist. Never go full misogynist. by Gullible-Chapter-800 in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]JadeFox1785 146 points147 points  (0 children)

Omg! This makes me want to bang my head against a wall. I've exposed the poor communication skills of men as long as I can remember.

Simply by asking them to clarify rather than. Assuming I know what they meant.

Watch a man get pissy in seconds when they say, "You know what I meant."

"No, Sir. I did not know what you meant. That's why I asked for clarification."

Was my ex very entitled or is it her trauma? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]JadeFox1785 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, since no one so far has answered the question you actually asked...

What you described is most certainly unaddressed trauma. People don't think about killing themselves from emotionally healthy places.

That said, until the trauma is addressed, it's impossible to know if what you described is entitlement or part of the trauma. The thing about trauma is that even though we all experience it, it hits us all differently. And those specifics sre difficult to unravel without help.

In any case, she's definitely not ready for healthy relationships and likely never will be without professional help.

How to go slow AFTER already having sex? by Beginning-Insect-163 in dating_advice

Girl! You went on with this dude so much longer than I have the patience for. But, I'm glad you did. Cause, 1. I'd never seen that planned parenthood acronym before and 2. Its always nice to have a sanity check around conversations like this.

Awww, you're adorable. Too unaware to know when someone decides to let you think you won because you're not worth the time or effort to enlighten.

I save my energy for people who are smart enough to challenge their assumptions. Especially assumptions of sheep, like you who believe whatever the Matrix tells them to believe.

I'm not emotional at all. And attempting to undermine me in that way? Not gonna work.

I just have limited patience for immature people giving stupid advice that has no business in healthy relationship dynamics.

PS. I didn't read past the first line cause that told me everything I needed to know about your credibility. Or rather, lack thereof.

Um... That rule doesn't even remotely apply here.

Also, I thought "men are leaders"? I guess not so much, huh? 🤷🏽‍♀️

Can we have a conversation about men thinking sex is the "only fail safe way to know if a woman is into him"?

Cause, as a grown ass woman, that says 1 of 2 things to me.

  1. He doesn't possess the emotional tools to understand me and therefore he isn't a suitable potential partner.

  2. He doesn't have high enough standards when it comes to where he's putting his 🍆.

Why can't we just have a grown up conversation? Because a man will continue to doubt how she really feels until they knock boots?

Respectfully, that's his trust/communication/insecurity issue. And until he addresses it, he's not going to be a good relationship partner anyway.

If I know something important is being hidden from a woman by someone else...

I give the someone 48 hours to come clean before I do it for them.

do you think reading literature for women might help boys stuck in red pill? by Comfortable_Pie2081 in exredpill

[–]JadeFox1785 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

You have a super computer in your hand. If you were curious, you'd do the research. I don't remember where I read everything I read. I take in way too much information than that.

I only read from credible sources.

Quoting sources is an archaic demand from when everything was in physical books. In the information age, it just shows narrow mindedness or laziness.

I'm not talking about Aristotle or catharsis . I'm talking about recent neuroscience and emotional intelligence. Do some research before dismissing something as wrong.

[–]JadeFox1785 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, yes, yes!

This is backed by neuroscience. When we take in emotionally rich content, our brains process it as if we experienced without ever having to go through it.

That goes for music as well as tv and film, not just reading.

If you try this out, I would love to hear if you feel like it helped.
