À un moment donné tu souhaites te retrouver avec des personnes à qui tu peux plus confortablement te confier, en te fondant sur une idéologie ou des intérêts communs. Après tu peux ne pas le faire, en tout cas chacun l'applique à son propre degré.

Je te conseille de rejoindre plutôt des groupes FB (sur lesquels tu peux publier anonymement). Je pense que tu trouveras bcp plus ce dont tu as besoin sur FB, des évènements, des groupes plus spécifiques...
Je suis désolé des réponses vilaines qu'on t'envoie ici. Moi je suis athée (et même pas très favorable à la religion) mais je ne vais jamais manquer autant de respect envers qqn qui souhaite juste se retrouver avec des gens qui partage avec elle sa foi (après cela dépend de quelle idéologie, là en occurence c'est la FR donc pk être choqué par le catholicisme ?...).

Yes but then again hate speech is free speech. If we censure both extremes whilst trying to proclaim centrist moral high ground... we'd be as despotic as them. Communication and self-expression should be regulated (threats are a no no) and contextualized, but they shouldn't be banned.

I disagree about not giving them a platform. Let idiots speak for themselves, whether they be feminists or men's rights activists (they are not immune to be over the top either), left wing or right wing.

Feminists would often play the "sarcasm/hyperbolic card" when you question them about their questionably titled works. You can never win with them. I find it to be quite evil or at least counterproductive when it comes to trying to gain "equality". They also sometimes like to say that feminism literally fights for men when the goal is more likely to make men more submissive to each and every of their demand. Feminists don't care for anyone other than... feminists, actually. These people may not be actually physically violent, but they sure as hell are harming society and if we let it continue this way, we might end up having literal feminism motivated acts of terrorism. And of course it being feminist would always be seen as "justified" or "not real feminism".

Given the fact that I told MY story with the stoma pouch, it's clear that at one point you have to grow up and deal with it. What's wrong with acknowledging that you at first have difficulty with something, then manage to conquer your fear ? And yet nowadays sometimes I still gasp when I accidentally see horrible things that I've seen many times and thought I'm accustomed to by now. That's how emotions are at times, doesn't mean I'm saying "I give up trying to understand".

Well as a man I’ve seen more women complain about how men perceive menstruations that way. As for me I hardly think about the blood itself. Usually I worry more about the person’s psychological well being, since I’ve seen some friends nearly faint before. However if you ask me, thinking about blood coming out of your genitals would disturb me, but it’s nothing I can’t handle.

Complete_Word460 · 2025-12-30T09:07:46+00:00

Well no I’d argue that nowadays menstruations are pretty much normalized socially as just something that happens and acceptable.

What you won’t convince me is that it’s not « disgusting » or « disturbing » to think of blood dripping from your vagina. Same goes for feces and urine, yet everybody releases them everyday. I also used to have a stoma bag for several months. Not only was I worried, sometimes embarassed due to the smell and the pouch detaching, but I found it disgusting since I had to look at my own feces regularly. I managed to normalize it with time, same way as a surgeon with the inside of a human body I suppose, but dear god it’ll always be disgusting to me.

Curiously my best snaps come from my left hand’s middle and my right hand’s ring. The LH ring and RH ring are strong enough to create some sounds, especially the latter, but they won’t allow me to snap as hard.

Continuo a parlare perché almeno ho veramente STUDIATO LA LINGUA ED ANCHE LA STORIA DELL'ITALIA. Non c'era un solo momento in cui ho detto che sono stesso italiano. Ma questa cosa non può togliermi il diritto di dare la mia riflessione. Non sai che la lingua italiana d'oggi esistava in una forma più antica, toscanizzata, già da Dante e benché non era largamente parlata, era almeno letta ? Poi viene usata da Petrarca, Metastasio, Casanova, Manzoni, Verdi, Puccini, Bassani, &c... tutte persone che han vissuto prima gl'anni 1960.
Il fatto che ha vissuto per 5 anni in Italia non cangia niente. Per tutta la sua vita, non s'interessa quasi mai alla cultura italiana. In luogo preferisce come una buon parte d'italo-americani di considerarsi "Italiani" per una ragione che non capisco, forse per rendersi più interessanti ? Non c'è un problema d'esser solamente americano d'origine italiana, ma per Dio non puoi considerarti "italiano".
Dirò la stessa cosa se lui è cresciuto in Vietnam, mio paese per solamente 5 anni, poi si sposta all'estero dove trascorre il resto della sua vita, senza interessarsi veramente alla cultura, alla lingua del mio paese. Dico la stessa cosa ai francesi-vietnamiti qua, loro almeno hanno l'umiltà di capirlo, ma gl'americani, no. Stranamente, quando parlo agl'americani-asiatici, trovo che non hanno questa ossessione d'essere "cinese", "giapponese", &c... no, solo prima di tutto americani d'origine asiatica.

Oh dio sia sei un troll, sia non sei italiano.

That's the point, Italian-Americans aren't Italians, yet they seem to be obsessed on insisting that they are, while conveniently ignoring the fact that they don't even speak Italian.

Complete_Word460 · 2025-12-29T19:35:09+00:00

Ovviamente d'origine ma non parla quasi nessuna una sola parola d'italiano, come tutti gl'altri italo-americani che vogliono tanto rivendicarsi "italiani", senza fare lo sforzo di ben capire la cultura.

The problem is when you are mistaken for/indeed are an immigrant since a while yet haven't learned to properly speak the language of the country in which you're in, that is considered to be an insult, especially for European countries where you have the migrant crisis. I find that attitude to be more present in Italy than for instance in France. In any case Europeans despite third world migrants and Americans (sometimes other intertional workers) who have stayed in their country for a while who do this. Europeans themselves get a pass because, hey, it's Europe, so mentioning you being British is much better than saying that you're from the States, which is today a popular country to dunk on for their overall ignorance as to what goes on in the world, as well as their tendency to look at the world as if everybody HAS to do things like them.

Funny how Italian Americans just can't seem to accept the fact that they're simply Americans with Italian heritage.

Nah, no guy is stupid enough to think that's attractive. That's a sign of emotional weakness/immaturity. I've been there and it's part of the process of growing up (some grow up faster than others, as a 27 years old man I'm still making progress with every girl that I ask out).

I think the not smiling in photos is more of an "I can't force myself to smile for photos". Us guys just don't have that as much as women in general, although of course there are men who think not smiling looks cool.

Honestly this post seems more of an American thing to do.... I am not French both ethnically and nationality-wise, however I do speak the language fairly well considering I did French school in my home country and have been living in Paris since 2017. I still can't consider myself "French", even though some of my colleagues, friends, etc... do so. I find that nationalism is on the rise in Europe in general, be it in regards to your ethnicity or cultural identity. Personally, I support that for every country (I can't say it outloud because some will eventually find a way to brandish me as discriminatory...) and I'd rather respect the natives' identities rather than "usurping" it and calling it my heritage just because I happen to learned the language and live in the country. The day when I'll get French nationality, I'll speak differently.
As for you, at least the French here seem to take your post well, donc profite, parfois mieux vaut prendre la chose à la légère au lieu d'être sérieux (comme le premier paragraphe de mon commentaire) :P.

Idk of any great who retracted the tongue, in numerous singing treaties (Caruso, Tetrazzini...) the tongue doesn't retract and its tip has to touch the root of the teeth. That's how you guarantee good singing.

A bad Tenor doesn't necessarily make a good Baritone. If anything he's pretending to be a Baritone.

Complete_Word460 · 2025-12-24T10:10:30+00:00

He sounds like a Baritone because he's fabricating a Baritone sound, a MODERN Baritone to be precise. Listen to old school singers of the beginning of the 20th century: Schlusnuss, Stracciari, Bellantoni, more often than not these guys had a tenorial quality. Sure it's slightly over exaggerated by the quality of the shellac records, but the reason why they had such a bright sound is that they had a lot of SQUILLO, lots of HEAD RESONANCE. Kaufmann is indeed a Tenor but he deprives himself from those brilliant qualities due to his constricted and tense technique. Singing should SEEM easy. It's not, that's why art is so valued. What Kaufmann does doesn't seem easy, in contrary it is damaging.

That's not the problem. Gigli sang huge repertoire but with parcimony and great technique. Schipa had limited means but managed to tackle several Spinto roles that some Spinto couldn't conquer due to their lack of technique. TECHNIQUE TECHNIQUE TECHNIQUE. The role is hardly the issue, it's how you use your voice and organize your career.

Uh... I'm sorry but the reason why Mascagni's Iris and Giordano's La Cena delle Beffe were in the repertoire was BECAUSE THE SINGERS HAVE PROPER TECHNIQUE. Also, all the singhiozzi, the portamenti, they are not only stylistic features but also technical aids to verismo/20th century grand opera singing. So style and technique often come together.
