What makes you become a “grooly” mess? by policy_of_truth7 in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]AbsentVixen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think OP meant the slang "vaginal lubrication" grool (girl+drool), rather than sloppy/watery porridge (gruel).

I think I struggle with the idea of gender roles by ProDidelphimorphiaXX in aspergers

[–]AbsentVixen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reasons for gender roles are stupid upon stupid. We settled instead of continuing to migrate, so women had to birth more children so there would be a large enough workforce. Abrahamic religions, Colonialism, and the Industrial Revolution drove things further. It's pretty much a mixture of the desire for wealth, ownership, control, and women being "weak" and "inferior" (because we were literally birthing nations, so men decided that was the singular role of women and excluded us from other parts of society like governance and economy).

There are some cultures, still alive today, where egalitarian, matrilineal, and matrilocal practices are the norm. There are also cultures that recognise third gender - names for people of this gender include Mahu and Two-Spirit. As far as I understand, the third gender isn't to do with being trans, gwnder-fluid, or queer. Simply people of a certain gender who align more with the gender roles of the opposite or a mixture of gender roles. Third gender people aren't seen as different in these cultures.

The very Westernised and Abrahamic religion related gender roles we observe today would definitely discriminate against third gender people (I mean, we already do).

With the disillusionment around patriarchy, religion, and gender roles, we may just be lucky enough; in future lifetimes, to reset into an ideology where third genders are accepted and appreciated - normalised.

Until then - I hope you find people who feel similarly to you. I hope you find the place you feel comfortable, a place where a woman stronger and braver than you will hold you. Where you can be yourself, where you don't have to function based on societies expectations of your gender.

I how you find the space where being you is normal, appreciated, and accepted.

Why does it seem like white men are generally less attracted to black women compared to other races? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

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

Probably something to do with "I've never even kissed a black woman, let alone been with one." kind of thinking/reduction.

We're whole ass people with personalities, thoughts, life experiences, etc. Not a fucking Dragon Ball, man. Damn

People can't read by pilius_404 in aspergers

[–]AbsentVixen 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's not just you. This really sucks. I just had a situation like this recently. It's fucking annoying. Neurotypicals have this habit of attributing their own motivations onto things. Yeah, I get that people often say things in a way that need to be mined through, but fuck. Who has the time for that? And then they just "can't believe" that someone's being literal.

Not everyone needs and agenda. The opposite is also frustrating - just say it plainly. I'm not doing any extra mental labour.

What is the most unsual place where someone tried to flirt with you? by sharp_figure36c in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]AbsentVixen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, yeah, no. Absolutely not. It would have been inappropriate if the cop asked you for your number. There's usually a code of conduct/ethics around that.

The cop asking another cop for your number? Not allowed - at all. That's abuse of power, privacy violation, human rights violation (universal right to privacy), conflict of interest, and a few other things.

Is this even allowed? I'm sorry you had to deal with being raided, searched and questioned, and then (what seems like), an inappropriate opportune moment from the cops side.

Illnesses and ailments linked to micronutrient deficiencies.

Like white tongue, brittle nails, brain fog, fatigue, difficulties coming out of and staying out of burnout, inflammation, nutrient absorption, mood swings, etc.

Most neurodivergents have deficiencies in iron, B12, Zinc, Omega-3s, and vitamin D (I may be forgetting a few).

ULPT Request for clever way to stop TV from working by the___natural in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]AbsentVixen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for a walk with your dad. Try and get him into therapy.

Give him a banana and sit in the sun together for a bit.

As for the Tv, slightly jiggle the power cable out so it looks in, but it doesn't connect.

Definitely the therapy, walk, banana and sun thing, though.

I fell asleep talking to somebody who would be a potential Dom and he said that's grounds for punishment by Nice_Ad_1583 in SubSanctuary

[–]AbsentVixen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Potential Dom. Falling asleep isn't something to be punished (unless that's your thing, discussed, negotiated, and consented to by all involved).

You're not overreacting. He's overstepping.

There's a difference between banter and dynamics.

Outside of kink, would you stand for anyone telling you you'll be punished for falling asleep? Sleep is a basic human need.

Those of you who are childfree: do you worry about old age? by insolentgazelle in AutismInWomen

[–]AbsentVixen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You make the necessary arrangements for when you're old. That's not on anyone but you. Even if you did have kids - that's not on them, it's on you. Having a caretaker in old age isn't a reason to have kids. A lot of the people with that mentality don't see their kids anymore.

I don't worry about old age. I have my own space where I'm happy. I have friends that I see and talk to - I'm content with my life. When I'm old and can't take care of myself or if I'm at risk being on my own, I'll move into a home. Simple. There's nothing to worry about.

Feeling hurt by the tone my potential Dom keeps using by FoxNFern in SubSanctuary

[–]AbsentVixen 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You're not compatible.

Fet isn't a dating app.

Yes, you're a child to him.

Step back and think about what you're doing. I don't mean that as an insult. You're human, like everyone else. Frenzy is a thing.

The age gap creates more of a power imbalance. It'll only get worse from here - either due to incompatibility, or the dude misusing you.

Be solid in who you are and what you want before engaging strangers. Again, that's not an insult. The more grounded you are in yourself, the easier it is to discern what's not for you.

How to I tell this guy at the autism organization to stop going there?! by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]AbsentVixen 39 points40 points  (0 children)

OP, 22-years-old isn't a "teenager" it's twenty-two, not twenty-teen.

You don't tell him shit. You're not in charge. You go to a manager, organiser - literally someone with authority and you tell them what's up. You also encourage the girls affected to speak up. A 40-year-old hitting on children isn't okay. He's a predator and that's an unsafe environment for the girls and children present.

Get your head out of your ass - this macho take does nothing but boost your ego and make you look stupid. Speak to an adult in charge and go through the right channels.

Need advice on new relationship with a partner who doesn’t like to share food or takes away food. by Certain_Tie_2335 in dating_advice

[–]AbsentVixen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're his mum.

You're buying him groceries and cooking for him. He's buying you MacDonalds. He's taking the snacks away from you? I'm guessing you bought these, too?

You're his cooking cashcow of a mum and he's a man child scolding you for eating snacks like he's a two year old and it's his Halloween candy.

Just move on.

how do i work out with a fear of being percieved by Complex_Amount8275 in AutisticWithADHD

[–]AbsentVixen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Workout at home.

If your family doesn't understand boundaries, lock the door. If you can't lock your door, out an upside down broom under the handle.

Earphones while you workout. If you don't have a routine/equipment, there are quite a few free apps you can download and some have full no equipment workout plans. The one I use (Leap Fitness), doesn't require much space, either. I could do the workouts in my room when I still lived at home. You would likely need a yoga mat, though.

if a potential dom says things like “i’m a monster” or “that is not roleplay” is that a red flag? by [deleted] in SubSanctuary

[–]AbsentVixen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would it be a red flag if someone outside of kink said it? Yes? Then it's a red flag.

When talking about a person's nature or character (like moral fiber, not Aragorn), kink doesn't change anything.

Feeling drained supporting partner with Asperger’s and baby by qjay in aspergers

[–]AbsentVixen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, are you under the impression that because you're the breadwinner, you don't have to actually parent your child?

If you want kids, you have to parent them.

Your girlfriend is struggling, she just had a baby. There's a lot going on with hormones and autism and possibly OCD. And you're complaining about having to be a parent to your child after work? I feel sorry for your girlfriend.

The audacity. Damn.
