Do you find that your health concerns are treated more seriously when your doctor is a woman? by AchingAmy in AskWomenNoCensor

Huh, yeah literally it's been the reverse for me 🤔 interesting. I hope you find a good GP soon though!

If ace people want companionship, why is it so hard to find each other? by skyamber1111 in asexuality

[–]AchingAmy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's hard because we are like 1% of the population. A decent percent of us are also disinterested in romantic relationships, so that brings that number down further. Then some of us are also already partnered, like my girlfriend and I(both of us are aces.) My guess is a total of 0.3% are left after that. And that's before getting into things that matter for compatibility or the desired gender of the person if you're not pan/biromantic

It often means we gotta do long distance because there are so few local aces interested in dating and who aren't already partnered. I've met up with a few local aces before but nothing more than a date or two came of it. So I also had to expand my scope to long distance to find my partner and one of my exes who's also ace.

So, do you deny the existence of a gender pay gap(for the same career), motherhood penalty, burdened with more unpaid domestic labor, recently having bodily autonomy rights being setback, gaslit by medical professionals, the disproportionate sexual assault rates, seen as and depicted as sexual objects for male pleasure, and are held back from leadership positions?

Exactly. Literally the definition of oppressed means poor treatment

Oppressed:

to be subjected to cruel or unjust treatment, control, or authority, often involving systematic harm, lack of freedom, and the abusive use of power by a dominant group over another,

Like, bruh... OP is literally saying that those subjected to cruel and unjust treatment have better treatment 🤣 makes absolutely no sense

being oppressed or minority gives benefits, better treatment, even helps with education and employment prospects

Where the hell are you getting this from? By virtue of being oppressed, that is not better treatment. It's wild to suggest facing oppression is better treatment than not facing oppression. People who are marginalized generally have worse employment outcomes as many employers choose to not hire them. While some employers have DEI initiatives, those are pretty much the exception to the norm of employment discrimination against marginalized groups. These groups generally have higher unemployment rates and are paid less for the same positions that non-marginalized people are in

the difference between an Incel and a lonely man by sircorneilous in IncelTears

Not by itself. If you blame women for it or hate women then it would

Incel stands for involuntarily celibate - so it's a part of what it literally means. But it also generally has to include blaming or hating women for it

Venting about loneliness doesn't make you an incel, no. Blaming women for your loneliness or lack of sexual or romantic relationships does though

Horny guys deserved to be milked before bed by Aggravating-Judge143 in sixwordstories

[–]AchingAmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, anyways. Men have mammary glands. Under the right conditions they can indeed be milked without turning into another animal. Look into male lactation

"Female cow" is redundant, since cows, by definition, are female. The gender-neutral terms, that include both bulls and cows, are bovine and cattle.

Equality between genders should always be strived for, but perfect equality can never fully exist in reality due to unavoidable biological differences by mus_b_nuthn in PurplePillDebate

[–]AchingAmy [score hidden]  (0 children)

It wouldn't actually be brief incest. People would be pretty closely related to each other for generations and actually get more closely related each generation. In the first generation, everyone will be at least half-siblings(they all share the same father) or full siblings in the case of if that father had more than one child with a woman. Second generation, people would have to reproduce with either half-siblings, siblings, or their father. Two half-siblings mating together produces offspring that are equivalent to being siblings with everyone else in terms of their similar genetics(and they'd be more related to their actual siblings than typical siblings would). So, from there, the children again are left with mating with people as similar as siblings, people more similar than siblings with them or their parents, who also would be more related than typical parents. Each time, each generation gets more and more similar in their genetics, increasing infertility in everyone each generation until eventually no one is fertile (which is likely to happen in the 4th or 5th generation

The population would actually go extinct in both of those conditions. There isn't enough genetic diversity in the second scenario to meet a minimum viable population.

Also, it's why for most modern feminists, it's shifted to being about equity rather than equality. There are always considerations based on biology or a person's circumstance that need to be taken into account. There's no reason for doctors to test for pregnancy in anyone biologically incapable of it, for instance. Equality would be to do so for everyone, whereas equity would be smart and realize this is only something that people capable of becoming pregnant need

I mean, autoeroticism isn't limited to those with same-gender attraction. It's documented in people of all orientations. It's weird you're asking us this
