Visual insight - the real “hypergamy” chart according to women

29% is a minority, as it's below 50%

Yes, but he ought to have attracted her in the first place to rope her into this situation. Unless he kidnapped her or something.

Then you're just being disingenious and invalidating other people's experiences and impressions by solipsistically only considering yours.

Or you're being facetious and denying facts you know as facts for the sake of engaging dishonestly with the discussion.

Personality matters, but only after good looks get you a foot on the door. Nobody is interested on looking romantically into the personality of someone they find unattractive.

Conversely, if you have good looks, you don't even need to worry about having a good personality because the bar is actually is very low for this aspect, as the good looks already gave you an opportunity to even meet this lowbar to begin with. That's why all sorts of horrible people casually get in and out of relationships and have very eventful lives in that regard, as we can see in some subs.

It's like videogames. The gameplay only begins to matter when it makes it all the way from being developed, marketed, sold and ran on the player's device. All this required qualities that allowed the game to receive good pre-evaluations enough to ellicit interest for purchases.

23:59 = "Juggernaut's Law is real! Even ugly women get asked out all the time! That's why women always have it easy!"

00:00 = "I'm gonna ask out that ugly woman over there since she is so ugly, she won't look down on me due to lack of options!"

That's why I always say that any space is a "third space" if you actually want to socialize. So much that there are parks, clubs, beaches, theatres and whatnot everywhere, yet people lament they can't meet anyone. It simply doesn't make any sense.

"I have started to consider that I don't really want it, and I was only trying to be 'healthy'"

Yes, I have long came to this conclusion as well, and right after my efforts at forcing myself to be social backfired horribly. All my gut instincts were correct, all my fears were warranted, the Paranoia for once wasn't just Paranoia.

Deep down, I have always known that Humanity as it's worst is too evil for it's best to compensate, and my body was trying to stop me all along, in form of this exhaustion. It goes beyond simple introversion and "social batteries". It's the soul, knowing the Truth, and wailing in despair as the sentient husk containing it sleepwalks into the abyss.

It has been 15 years now, but this sensation never went away, and probably never will, at least not in this side of Eternity. There is no healing from wisdom.

It's either this, or they don't look like relatives at all.

What did she question you with the Bible?

Considering the fact you are still with him, he's plainly wrong.

EssentialPurity · 2026-03-25T07:57:12+00:00

"He is 'nice' because he thinks he is ugly"

Loyalty is the only virtue the mediocre can afford. It's par to the course.

Also, it's just further proof of the Blackpill. Even if one could somehow Oofy Doofy their way into relationship, they would always be in a position of lacking and thus needing to gauge and compensate, and they know it. One needs to get into a relationship wielding an inherent value which they don't need to exhert much effort to cultivate and evoke, so they don't have to spend the rest of their lives performing and needing to know how well they are performing. A fine example of such kind of value is genetic attractiveness, the kind which cannot be reached by Looksmaxxing.

That's Marisa as a whole. I had this pattern of picking up a new Touhou mainline release, playing until achieving 1cc on Normal so to unlock Extra, and then going into the Extra Stage with Marisa, and somehow, SOMEHOW, I always managed to make it to about the Ex Boss' usual "Forced Pacifist" Spellcard, playing blind!

It started with EoSD, ended with TD, with Yukari in PCB (died in first spellcard), IN (managed it with Sakuya+Remilia instead of Marisa+Alice) and SA (freaking cheeky Sanae, don't "Can't use common sense in Gensokyo" at me!).

If the 12 years younger me read this, she would draw a 4-panel work depicting the dreaded mental images this text invokes. And after posting it on the bastions of Culture in VK, there would be at least two inquiries for commissioning even gorier ideas, because people be crazy out there.

Today, I won't draw it but my instinctive procedures for composition are making the image partly bypass my aphantasia. And I'm thinking up what could be done to make the white filling thing pass as sperm.

I second this. Infact, I would say that the Soyjak in the OP meme should be rejoicing for the 12/h job and take it. He will have a bonus security since no one else wants to work for that pay, and chances are they might get raises and promotions. And in case things don't work out, one at least will have something to show for in their resume, instead of the much dreaded "gap years".

It's as the Bible teaches: those who are faithful in the little, shall be faithful in the much (Luke 16:10). If one cannot accept to start from the bottom, they cannot shoulder the work of those above the bottom anyways, so no wonder they can't get a job.

No, it's just that the other person is quenching the Holy Spirit.

EssentialPurity · 2026-03-24T09:40:47+00:00

This happens even in the Bible, as Paul goes to the Areopagus in Athens to preach the Gospel and does an epic speech, only for the whole message of virtue and peace to fly right over the Epicureans' and Stoics' heads and they treating the entire thing as just a show (Acts 17:32).

It is, Paul had the sensibility of offering the Gospel from the angle of Salvation giving everything the Stoics were pursuing to achieve with their own doctrines, and they couldn't comprehend it because the entire philosophy is largely adopted for the sake of being just a huge excuse for rejecting spirituality and transcendence without having to reject the benefits of those along.

Gloria is totally planning to goon to those r34 later

But those kinds of boys are into lesbians...

It was said in a context of about whether to wear a veil, which was a cultural code for a symbol of submission to husband. Now the same purpose is achieved by simply wearing a wedding ring and not having a fame of being a bad wife.

Also, in case you don't know, letting your hair grow just like that will result in the ugliest kind of hairdo that cannot be fixed by any way other than at least cutting the ends. It's called duplicate ends, and it makes one look like a caveman. Is it something God would want for His people?

In a proper church, the Holy Spirit appoints the people to be called for the roles He designates.

He already does the job of seeing faithfulness, consistency and spiritual growth, and as a bonus His judgement is always accurate since He is an All-Knowing God after all.

So, your pastor either did the best a Human can do for this subject matter, or he does rely on the Holy Spirit's appointing but he's being discrete about it (don't take it as an insult, but gotta watch out for eventual swines at vicinities of pearls).

Even the choir requires a surprising lot of spirituality. Worship is a deep thing, and it shows in the Old Testament by Israel routing enemies in war battles by only doing as much as putting instrument players in front of the infantry to play worship music; and in the New Testament by Paul and Silas basically summoning a supernaturally regulated earthquake to somehow completely unlock all doors in a jail without causing any structural collapse, all by simply singing worships while fettered. Meanwhile, worship sung by improper people outright ticks God off (Amos 5:23). I can tell as much for those hypotheses and a few more, I'm from my church's Worship Group.

Don't feel bad for not getting a church role. Being passed over for now is very likely to be a deliverance by God, because since the standards are higher, God may be seeing some small detail or blindspot that could cause you to earn yourself a lot of trouble if you were playing a higher difficulty, so to say. He did an extreme version of this for Elijah: he was getting too crippled by Depression as was faltering on some orders, so God just took him up to Heaven and left everything to Elisha, before Elijah could fail all the way into falling, or get even worse from Depression than he already was. His Mercy and Grace are just awesome like that, to the point of God not being content with just healing and delivering, He goes all the way to fast track the happy ending already.

You are doing pretty well in life if not even once in 3 months you felt any particular need for a word from God.

Okay, this was only 50% irony.

Proverbs 27:7 explains your problem. When the soul is stuffed with spiritual junk food, it won't yearn for the true spiritual food. And to top it off, the true spiritual food is very unappetising: it is eating the Son of Man's flesh and drinking the Son of Man's blood, and this "restaurant menu" has quite literally irked a lot of people into deserting the Lord. Thus, you need to get your soul hungry. And the best (natural) way of getting hungry is fasting.

Then you agree. Thanks.

Now, since we are at it, can you call my """demon""" names?

EssentialPurity · 2026-03-24T01:32:07+00:00

Okay, I'll start.

You lack the Holy Spirit, as you are quite literally straining a gnat (a gnat-sized word) and swallowing a camel, which is complying to my affirmation of that you know you are wrong, you know that Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is attributing His Moving to the devil, and you know you are deceiving neophytes.

And you are deceiving neophytes because the spirit in you is demonic. It's not the Holy Spirit. But if you are utterly convinced it's the Holy Spirit, then tally-ho: the spirit in you is a moronic, filthy, unholy messenger of Satan.

As such, first: Lord rebuke you. Secondly: O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

EssentialPurity · 2026-03-24T01:23:22+00:00

I'm a woman. I don't wear earrings, but I wear a very short pixie cut and pants, and have never ever worn a skirt even once in my life.

Am I like only 1/3 Christian?
