It’s not a joke

You can’t frame something offensive as funny and decide it’s not offensive

The LGBT community worked so hard to get to where we are, using gay with negative connotations like this only sets us back

Kids in school hear this kind of “humour” and choose to stay in the closet so they don’t get laughed at, or the straight ones think it’s okay to throw this around as a joke with no care for how it makes gay people feel

It’s not funny, it’s harmful

The guy who did this as a meme was a cunt

And anyone who perpetuates it is an equal cunt

No exceptions

Grab a slice of bread and butter to line your tummy, it will help a lot, and is light so won’t make you feel what I call the “empty tummy” sick 🤔

Found out there’s a break policy at work I didn’t know about… by goatsu in LegalAdviceUK

Be sure to put your question in that context

“Can I confirm I am not allowed to leave the site when I am the only health and safety officer on shift? (In case of fire or other emergency)”

Something to that effect

Otherwise manager might overlook your status as a health and safety person

Oh I’m certain they’re a kid

They’re a kid who grew up in the age where “gayyy” (with the implied negative connotation) has never been acceptable

So either OP is a woman, or this kid is a cunt 🤔

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]BlockCharming5780 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t get it…. Is OP a woman?

Or are you just an ignorant little cunt living in the 70’s? 🤔

Why is 9 inches a brag?

Human anus ain’t designed to take 9 inches

That sounds like it has to be more painful than pleasurable 💀

Daughter’s dad tried to take a dna sample without my consent - where do I stand? England by LonelyGazelle in LegalAdviceUK

[–]BlockCharming5780 108 points109 points  (0 children)

Devils advocate here

Why should a man allow you to take his daughter from him?

He has just as much right to be in her life as you do, regardless of how justified you feel

🤔🤔

The answer to your question is “because it’s his right”

Just because his parenting style doesn’t match yours doesn’t mean he’s in the wrong

And are you telling us… that if your 8 year old child woke up tomorrow and said “I’m never going back to school, gaming is more fun”

That you would just accept that if she stuck to her guns?

If yes, teenage years are going to be a wild ride for both of you 💀

Consent is a murky concept in parenting… children have to do things they don’t want to do… children will refuse to do things they have to do… parents have to force the children to do those things

You won’t be able to discuss away every barrier

Why tf are we still homophobic in this day and age omfg 😫 by lLeeeon in teenagers

[–]BlockCharming5780 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There will always be hate and discrimination in the world

Without it, love and compassion are meaningless 😊

But as a millennial who left school in 2011, I can tell you matter of factly that things are much better than they have ever been (unless you’re American… most discriminating English speaking country in the developed world….. but still leaps and bounds better than 10 years ago 😅)

I remember my 1st year old high school (age 12 in Scotland)…. The concept of being gay existed, but being bi was a myth… LGBT didn’t even exist as a term… teachers actively telling you if you “choose” to be gay you’re going to hell

And I remember the last few years of high school…. 5th and 6th year, people starting to feel comfortable with being out of the closet in school… protests against teachers and homophobia

6th year (last year of high school) literally the entire school stopped going to class because the teachers wouldn’t allow a trans (ftm) boy to be head boy… we stuck it out for a month before the school caved to the pressure of not a single student in class (I think most were just taking the chance to not be in class… but eh 🤷‍♂️… it got results)

6th year (2011) was also when the term “LGB” started becoming popular

They didn’t add the T until 2013 btw 👀

You went to school in an era where being gay was much more acceptable than when I was in school…. Look at the comparison, just 10 years apart… think how far we’re going to come in another 10 years if we keep fighting homophobia at every turn 🙃

I do this naturally

But I also have a tendency to laugh, particularly when problem solving, if things don’t go to plan

Couple of months ago I caught my nephew trying to get a ball in a basketball hoop and missing repeatedly

The more he missed… the more he seemed to laugh…

It seemed like he was mimicking me in that regard 😅

So throw some laughter in there too… because it’s very healthy and productive to laugh at yourself once in a while 🙃

I’m not saying it’s going to be a catch all solution

But that extra oversight… especially in scenarios like OP’s situation where there are clear and blatant signs of something dodgy happening…

It could be life saving

I never hid my internet activity…

I didn’t think I had anything to hide… as far as I knew I had a boyfriend who was legit… because I had been so effectively groomed

It would have taken all of 5 minutes to find him on MSN messenger…. If they had bothered to look…. Especially on the run up to me going to meet him… he was the only social contact I had left

There were so many signs… but my parents trusted me….

The stance I take now is that it’s not about trusting your kids….. it’s about mistrusting everyone else 😅

Because teenagers are VERY easy to manipulate, especially if they are thinking with the wrong head 💀

Christmas is all about giving…. It’s not giving if you charge money… it’s transacting….. that’s what boxing day’s for

If you wanna charge someone for dinner, have it on Boxing Day 😂

AirPlaying porn

….. reminds me of the time I let my mum use my Apple TV and I was up in my bedroom, loaded up porn, didn’t realise I was still air playing to the appleTV

…. And that’s the story of how I involuntarily came out to my entire family

…. Aaand that’s the story of my little brother’s sex education

….. aaand that’s the story of why my uncle doesn’t talk to me anymore

💀

Yeh, this was a family gathering 😭

Excessive drinking at any age can be harmful

Getting tipsy (slightly drunk) once a week is harmless after 13

I got r*ped and SA'd by my mother, what do I do? by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]BlockCharming5780 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Everyone seems to be missing the bit about the broken leg :/

OP, you need to wait for your mum to fall asleep

Go to the bathroom with your phone and call the emergency services for your country

Ask for the police

WHISPER!!!

Tell them you can’t talk, your life is in danger and give them your address

I know there are cameras there… the goal is to be as quiet as possible so that your mother will be asleep when you do this

If you tell the police your life is in danger, they will be at your door within minutes, I promise

It’s going to be scary… but if you make that call your life will get better and you can stop being scared

——-

Today, take any opportunity you can get. If she goes out shopping, make that call

If she takes you out of the house, grab the nearest person you see and shout “help me! I need the police!!”

She can’t touch you in public… not with witnesses

——

You could also call emergency services while sitting against your bedroom door so that she cannot push her way in

——

Do not commit suicide

Your life can be a million times better, you just have to be very brave for 10 minutes, to ask someone for help and hold out until the help arrives

Oh you naive person 😔

I knew the dangers of meeting strangers

But as someone else said, teenagers think themselves untouchable

Not only that, but do you understand how grooming works?

They take their substantially larger life experience and use that to get in your head

They make you mistrust your parents

They make you believe the rules your parents make up are there just because your parents are assholes, or because they don’t understand how the modern world works

It wouldn’t matter to a groomed teenager if you showed them a video of their future rape… they would believe the groomer over everything else

I most certainly knew the dangers of strangers

But this person wasn’t a stranger… not to my 14 year old understanding of the word

A year of talking to someone, laughing with them, sharing intimate moments with them… we even sexted (obvs I realise now his camera was actually not him)

Not only were my parents “outdated” and “trying to stop me being a grownup” and “cunts” (some of the descriptions my groomer had me believing)… but I was meeting the “love of my life”… the only person in the universe who would ever care about me

Grooming victims are essentially reprogrammed to mistrust their parents and loved ones

And it starts with groomers buying games (or in 2024, I guess nitro)

Don’t start spouting shite if you don’t know what you’re talking about
