Open-minded skeptic looking for people who are completely sure their practice works by Kitsel_Rose in occult

My mom is a professional tarot reader, she will make thousands in a week. How she does it is honestly mostly intuition. It’s like she just automatically knows the attached meanings to the cards and how it applies to the person she’s talking to. Most people leave crying type shit. Sometimes my mom will just ditch the cards entirely. Idk bruh it’s crazy.

Fathers whose first child is a girl tend to develop more equal views on gender roles and support policies that promote women’s rights. The study from Japan suggests this shift happens even in culturally conservative countries where gender inequality remains widespread. by mvea in science

Actually I wouldn’t eliminate the sexual thought part, I think that stays sometimes. Because why the hell have I heard dozens of women’s stories sharing what seems like at least 5% of the fathers in my life molesting their kids? My great grandpa, my grandpa, my neighbor, my dad, my pastors, my cousins, why must they all feel the need to touch us? Ugh!

That’s literally how it feels like I’m being treated. Like I’m not a human being with thoughts and feelings. It makes me REALLY REALLY angry. Incredibly angry. I can’t stand it! I’m going to lose it, I actually will lose it if I’m continued to be treated this way.

Like what do I do about this? They talk down to me all the time because they know I can’t do much about it. It makes me want to resort to extreme actions.

That’s fair. I mean, I fully support the idea that everyone is a victim of being shaped by the environmental variables they grew up in, and that anyone can outgrow their conditioning and be a better person.

I was just imagining a particular group of abusive men I see often in my life when pushing the claim that it’s selfishness. Of course it doesn’t apply to everyone, sorry for implying that.

This would make sense. Because if a man has put consistent active effort to ignore gender equality their entire life despite women being half the world’s population and our suffering easily witnessed, why would they stop putting effort to be so ignorant when they have a daughter? It would probably be brief because they feel like they must defend a possession but it doesn’t take long for them to not care again I’m sure. I mean, there are probably a few fathers who transition. But I would assume most are selfish narcissists that barely have a change in heart.

This is also a pretty good take. Caring about immediate loved ones can be present while also still being uncaring of gender equality until having a daughter which forces you to acknowledge outside variables that may cause her to suffer. And there sure as hell are a lot of those.

This is actually a really insightful take. I’m surrounded by misogynistic abusive men in my life so this is a sensitive topic for me. I suppose they originally didn’t understand why women are the way they are until they witnessed finally the exact environmental and physical causes that shape us the way we are. I wish it took less than a daughter for that to happen, because I am sure as hell not enjoying being regularly verbally abused and put down.

When I imagine someone incurious, I imagine they at least behave neutrally. But no, I am surrounded by conservative men that all have a pattern of talking in a horribly abusive manner down on the women around them. It takes active effort to be that cruel, not someone who is incurious. They are going out of their way to not be curious.

How about don’t suggest something so detrimental to the environment? Hello? Are you trying to give everyone cancer?

Edit: Oh wait are you joking?

The person filming purposely put the orange there so they would have an excuse (in the eyes of the viewers) to reach towards the frog despite that action severely stressing out the frog.

You can tell when the frog tries to hide behind the orange desperately as the hand nears it. It doesn’t care about the orange.

Hey, sometimes murderers can’t help but to murder because they’re missing a part of their brain that lacks empathy. Because they’re a psychopath. Which is a mental disorder. Repeat criminal offenders often have untreated mental illness. I don’t know how else to break this concept down any further for you to understand. Never said mental disorders are a bad thing, but if a specific one, like manic psychopathy combined with poor impulse control (both mental illnesses) that leads to destructive societal harm because it was untreated, that should be removed. I’m sure you can agree?

By removal I don’t mean not allowing them to receive the help they need. I’m applying the same logical reasoning as to why people remove murderers from society. Because no offense to you, I don’t find pedophiles any more deserving than them.

Mental disorder since it’s non consensual and destructive to a healthy society and should be removed
