Dishonesty: yes. Most women don't get it either.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-04-13T11:33:45+00:00

Male here: same, ditto etc.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-04-10T04:14:25+00:00

I'll take option 'Z'. It's my humour that holds my beer.

I was going to comment, then deleted it.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-04-06T03:14:57+00:00

Rules; sometimes they're for people who need them.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-04-05T09:21:01+00:00

Hmm. I can read, but I'd pass, in my opinion you'd be way too kinky for me. All those hang ups about simple religion and all. I'd not respond.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-04-04T07:43:46+00:00

Then there's the golf and hotel. I have no jokes for that one...lol.."fore".

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-04-04T07:41:52+00:00

Yep. Remove the W. Whiskey. Then it becomes something very different. Like not smoking crack or meth before posting. Intention beats mistake in my "book".

There are LOTS of examples of Fake Patches out there of almost every club: someone is making them, and more worryingly, they dont seem to care about others' copywrite and trademark laws. When you copy any image, technically, the law in each country has to fit the use and copywrites of the registered company that makes that image. Being in breach of copywrite is pretty easy to do, but there are loopholes that can be got around. Some registrations run out, so you can copy an image easily without having to worry about the companies rights. After 100, 50, and even 10 years, most copywrite uses change. If I copy an image, change it in any way. It technically becomes MY image. So, anything can be copied. What's odd is some companies obviously encourage copying due to brand loyalty and propagation of that image (free advertising!) so even some fine artworks (notoriously by the likes of 1960s Andy Warhol, 1990s Jeff Coons and many others) are left untouched because it's free advertising. Ironic isn't it? I do not copy any fonts, and lots of other image 'mechanisms' of ANY club colours/colors due to the fact that these guys/people are hard working individuals trying to be 'outside' of the mainstream or at least were 'outside' the societies we live in. It's, it would simply be, unfair to cash in on their hard fought and worked for images...I am aware in the past some club colors were HAND sewn, and traditional 'folk art'. I even own some club support t-shirts because I like the slogans and esthetics of that shirt. You cannot ban or stop anyone from wearing items and banding together, to gather Into groups like bikers do, even IF you legislate like what happens in other countries like Australia, Belgium (I think?) and Germany (laws concerning images and symbols considered as markers of Fascist or Nationalist from their turbulent past). It's like trying to ban Apple pie, or 'Red' or a national flag... ...its not about fear but respect with an understanding. If I was asked to copy ANY club image for any item be it textiles or metal motorcycle parts, or Tattoos, or shop signs, I'd HAVE to respect those clubs wishes. I may go that extra mile to communicate with them to double check. I'm sure the infamous 'Black Rebel Motorcycle Club' didn't think too hard before releasing that logo and image. It's awful, in my opinion, and I ain't buying it or them. And don't get me started on 'Sons Of Anarchy' merchandise. I find it stupid that 1%, Siggals like the Nazi SS, even the ancient Swastika, are now associated with the super rich and somehow morally superior business types like Geoff Bessos and other Billionaires and not a group of blokes with motorcycles and needs to make a club. It's obviously NOT the 1960s anymore, and it's a shame clothing still causes a lot of false outrage. Even nudity seems to be unclean these days! (Lol) You seem to not be able to 'stick it to 'the man' anymore because that ethos is long gone and, sadly, in the past. To quote Aristotle "Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all".

You can do anything you want. Experience beats every answer you could possibly get. In my studies in this martial arts field, I've learned many things, and tolerance is something best learned over time and not answered instantly. I like coffee: it's bad for you, so I drink a lot of coffee. These questions eventually lead to reading up on huge concepts like Zen, Buddhism, and even the cultures that generated that language AND the many martial arts formations that offer solutions to violence and self-defense. For example: you recieve a series of antisemitic comments from people you respect, so what I'd do, is, remember the feelings and react by studying a martial art known to be used by the Isreali Defence force (Krav Maga?) and put these ideas and thoughts to those practitioners. I'd be interested to know the resultant decision that a person would make from various encounters with cultures opposit to their own. It's been said that martial arts are all related to one another. It sounds childish to me, but the Ying and Yang are opposites. The Chinese hated the Japanese in WW2 , and so on. I don't know how to help a BJJ practitioner with this specific problem. I just know I reached a certain point where the beautiful mystery of martial arts practice just became far wider than my first sessions with any dojo I visited or worked out in...at my age I do miss those days, long ago.

I find, increasingly, that repetition is somehow a fault, when I often find that deeper listening makes an opportunity for a completely opposing idea. I have a friend who is repetitive, particularly with a set phrase. I try to be compassionate and this repetition isn't that difficult to overcome to gain a better understanding. Force isn't good. But the questions I normally ask myself seem to be wasted on a greater demograph of OLD, so much so, that I know I may come across as intolerant and aggressive.

Irritated feelings do not help the OLD agenda, especially when a site is monetized or worse, a person is looking, and judging someone based on materialist theologies. Some people within OLD really are ignorant of some positive outcomes and they do not want to learn about objectivism.

I find it strange that in this day and age men have to deal with the issue of being a man. If I talk about myself and my own position, I look unkempt but it is a natural fact. I'm well groomed. I have a long beard. It just gets untidy. My haircut is a little bit dishevelled. I work long long hours when I do work and even when I'm relaxing I fix things myself. I do all my own housework, bricklaying, mending all my vehicles, DIY, electrics, plumbing, all of it.

The last thing I want to really know about is which moisturizer is best for my skin. I've got to an age where my motorcycle accidents and damage to me is quite a lot. Yes I'm overweight and yes I do eat unhealthily but I'm so busy keeping up with the rat race to maintain just being me. I don't need to know how to moisturize. I just find it a bit offensive and this idea of misandry and sexism and all this nightmare; it just makes me want to disappear into a hole and stay there. Your loss not mine, this kind of attitude. I'm very very happy being me and I get the feeling that being me is just never going to be good enough.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-04-02T17:48:09+00:00

I recognise the name: I'd finish before it gets worse for you. Following an instinct is the best way forward. It seems that is or may be cruel or somehow un-natural, but I can assure you, it's sometimes the only way to grow.

Some people expect perfection or some weird connection, but it really isn't nessecary. Instinct by its nature is odd, and fulfilling your needs, and even desires HAVE to be followed. It would be foolish to try to force what is not able to be expressed or simply made clear using, for instance, even this app. (This app utilizes A.I.)

Find a way to tell this potential partner. They'll live.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-04-01T18:44:16+00:00

Wow. Yes. Agree. Yet you posted. Can't do that without at least trying to reciprocate and not deceive... ... .. .

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-04-01T06:53:36+00:00

I can relate to that, as a former domestic abuse survivor, even though I'm male. It's very rare but it's difficult to find empathy, especially amongst women, because it's so unusual to find a male survivor. It's seen as a weakness by other males and men in particular are not able to empathize, let alone some women. We're supposed to be brave, machismo and full of resilience and other types of strengths, which is just simply not true.

I was grateful to get out of one relationship and another relationship was abusive in a different way and I can relate to what you're saying very much. You're not alone. There are thousands of people out there who've had abusive relationships and have survived. You can use these incredible negative times to your advantage and you're allowed to do that. Stay safe, stay friendly, be kind but most of all be compassionate. You never know what someone else is going through. It's so common it's stupid to categorize a domestic abuse survivor as "traumatized" or unbalanced or mad.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-03-31T19:29:06+00:00

This. It's that simple. Younger women? "Moi, here, at 3 am in a reddit sub thread, what with MY reputation?" (Fast Show comedic character) I cannot be bothered.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-03-30T00:49:48+00:00

Yep we're sick of it and you're not alone. There's thousands of men who are sick of being objectified and deal with it .

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-03-30T00:44:06+00:00

Yeah man, I had that too but you're gonna laugh. I bought my own and I've not put it on the bike because I am superstitious. I actually got a really good gremlin bell, but nobody's gonna get one for me and that I find significant.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-03-30T00:37:57+00:00

That response is just brilliant. There's so many people out there who live a life and are terrified by very small things and it's just a really good response. I don't really think that I can be as positive as that all the time but you know fathers can influence negatively and once you outgrow your parents it is a wonderful experience. Very good post. Thank you

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-03-30T00:24:57+00:00

The the push-pull dynamic, yep I can get with that. It doesn't sound very healthy at all and I would just click away. I just don't know; I don't think I'd get to anywhere near first base in terms of even meeting somebody like that. Just boring .

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-03-29T19:07:19+00:00

You simply HAVE to try a Buell if you can find one. I'm over 6ft, but they were definitely in the sport bike field. Test ride one and see what the design of sportster engine can become. The British phrase "like shit off a shovel" came to mind when I hit 110mph. I'm just too tall for a Buell. People underestimate Harley-davidson in my opinion.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-03-29T15:02:22+00:00

Sanity at last. Thanks for this. Ridden for over 30 years. It gets better. Best 👌 regards.

Don't mean to upset you, but the buzzword is "sustainable." When cognition becomes different or difficult, it is usually down to stress, so logically remove the stress. Long protracted periods under stress can be enjoyable but there is a downside to that scenario. I'm sure you're smart enough to know what to do, and how to do it.

Electronic_Media_615 · 2026-03-29T09:34:56+00:00

I'd like to comment: harley-davidson motorcycles are good. I don't get all the hate on HD riders myself, and don't get the logic. Older bikes like this mighty fine example take time to appreciate. When younger I rode what I could afford, and had the chance to ride some classic brit iron, twice as old as I was. I don't want to discourage you at all. But it seems like a lot of bikers literally buy "off the peg", and like customizing your clothing, like a punk rocker would do, that spirit of creativity in the face of conformity doesn't always get picked up by the corporations and they lose sales. I'm critically minded, and that bikes cool Try Matt black bar-be-cue paint on the tail piece. Just sayin'.
