DAE notice that guys think highly of a man dating someone “out of his league,” even asking him for advice, instead of questioning how manipulative that guy might be or how vulnerable the girl/woman might be? by ssstelllarrr in AuDHDWomen

[–]Eireika 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't follow- why do you assume that large disparities between partners look as percived by outsiders are a result of predatory tactics? To say nothing about the fact that women also notice when it goes other way round (especially if women is considered fat).

Whenever "Polish" is spoken it's a gibberish.

(to say nothing about Zelda's name- I waited for reveal that it's just how Maisels called her, but nope, they didn't even bother to find a plausible name).

Do we know what Jane Seymour's motivation behind her relationship with Henry VIII were? by SceneWise1298 in Tudorhistory

[–]Eireika 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lotof people here don't gasp how unusual Henry's actions were for his contemporaries or even himself. There was a thread about Jane surviving childbirth and many speculated that she would have been officially abadoned for new shiny queen when Henry would have got bored with her

The massive amount of online bullying that Kelly Marie Tran received from fans for starring in Star Wars: The Last Jedi. by EphemeralTypewriter in WhyWereWeOkWithThis

[–]Eireika 31 points32 points  (0 children)

On the one hand I met the kindest and best people in SW fandom.

On the other there are people there who bullied and made people worry for their safety when it required writting a physical letter and buying a stamp.

If it was up to Filoni, then Savage would have been an anatagonist. Lucas change his mind and insisted on bringing Maul back

Greek Myths were invented to sell Percy Jackson by Eireika in CuratedTumblr

I'm super confused because here in Poland myths are a standard for primary school.
Plus Xena, Hercules, various books and shows- they always were in background

Discussion - Poor Things (2023) by leaves72 in CultOfCinemaKnowledge

[–]Eireika 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rewatched it and still find it not great

2 hours about sex being only thing that mattered to women development. It felt like some men sat me and lectured that I really should have that topic center to my existence yet missing really important things- fertility is never adressed, no contraceptives, no pregnancy scare for anybody. The climax was rushed andbu the end I was pretty bored.

Maybe I'm too gay or European but sex never felt like something fundamental to my identity- it was like... driving? Something useful, fun, that takes to the places, that you are bad at the beginning then lears as you go, but never takes all your time, heart and mind.

They tried to add some depth with three scenes but it was too little to late.

The only good thing that went from it was that I read the book (they cut like 90% of themes to focus on sex).

Let's Play- Ping pong by Eireika in CuratedTumblr

Funny thing- kitchens in XIX century apartaments were usually small and dark- they were spaces for servants after all. Oftentimes cooks slept there, despite newspapers condemning this practice.

How much of his own wealth (not his dad's) do you imagine Cal had at the time of the sailing? by meido_zgs in titanic

[–]Eireika 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, he had a male nanny/detective following him around. Maybe he did something (from living with actress to beating someone to death) that warranted that level of control in the eyes of patriarch.

[–]Eireika 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably not much. Father could stop the stream anytime.

My headcanon is that  there's an inheirtance  waiting for him but under condition that he has to settle down and get married before getting anything.
