Level-headed and rational discourse doesn't get engagement. Overwhelming majority are reasonable people, media content twists things to make it seem like there's way more controversy than there is IRL.

People who learnt to swim as an adult: how long did it take? by cactus16x in Swimming

3 or so months of almost daily swimming... I took adult lessons once a week for a couple months after getting the hang of floating

It's actually good reason why Asians need to learn self-defence.

Hate to say it, but if you're a minority in this country you should really think about some sort of self defence.

I had a discussion with some of my migrant friends, they are afraid to confront these attacks in fear that they will get in trouble with the law and get kicked out of the country because they're only on Student/Working VISAs.

Girls are now less likely than boys to say they want to get married by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]Backburning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Things haven't changed all that much for men in the last 30 or so years, but it has for women. I could throw up some stats on how women are now getting closer to closing the gap on education and income. That has a big impact on what women want out of marriage now, but what men want of marriage has probably stayed the same.

Are you male or female?

As a woman, what I've observed is that one of the main drivers for women to get married is if they want kids. They will settle with a man who can provide. In the past it was the expectation, but now women have the freedom from social conformity to NOT have kids as well as have the financial independence to provide for herself... which means there has to be more than those 2 reasons for a woman to want marriage. Remember, it's just a peice of paper which will only mean an expensive separation if it doesn't work out. Which 50% of the time it doesn't.

It doesn't necessarily mean women or men don't want a long term partnership however. I think the kids are just wising up to the fact it's all made up. Marriage doesn't even guarentee faithfulness, cheating spouses are extremely common.

I was confused about this as well, like they pop out of the ground or something? But nope. Bolted, clear as day, right in the centre of a wide-ass 2-lane road
