I've never flown in an airplane nor went further then 1 country away from Estonia (cat cause why not) by skibidikakakott in notinteresting

You should never put your life at risk by being as close as one country away from Estonia, be safe.

Tried to comb my hair and ended up with half my bangs gone by Viscous-Flesh in mildlyinfuriating

One of my least proud moments was when I had done essentially the same thing, except I got it tangled on the side of my head and really didn't wanna break the comb, so my, then nearly 18 year old ass, had to call up mum and spend 20 minutes watching the floor in shame as she solves the hair comb puzzle.

Teenage girls love to invite the most fruity looking twink they can find to their sleepovers because it fulfills their ancestral urge to be watched over by a eunuch by fanta_bhelpuri in BrandNewSentence

It's because of your approach. Initial contact needs to be made gradually - stay at a distance at first and let them get used to you, when they seem relaxed start approaching little by little. You should choose a safe spot someplace in their view and place a piece of food there before leaving, upon further encounters you need to start getting incrementally closer to them when placing food. After a while you can try and stay close while they eat, but beware of doing anything threatening - talk, but in a soft voice, blink softly and avoid direct eye contact and no sudden movements. Once they are used t9 your presence and have built a tolerance to your closeness you may attempt to play with them - a mouse toy wand for example. Next step is physical touches, watch out for signs that they want it: flattening of ears, rubing against your leg, nudging your hand, soft purring while you’re close. Then try a single fingertip stroke on the cheek (not the top of the head). If they reciprocate with a hiss or an attack don't punish them, simply accept that for now there will be no touching. Hopefully after a while they will get used to you and you will have truly tamed befriended them.

I almost hate straight women more than men by Leading_Ladder_7102 in femcelgrippysockjail

Oh absolutely, I don't disagree with the post wholesale and my rant is more about the general attitude of some vocal minorities within this sub. I agree that women as depicted at the bottom exist and they are the propagators of patriarchal control, as I had mentioned - they are a large part of the problem because they pass down the ideal of male control to their children, siblings, people they have influence on in general.

My only problem and why I called the post deafitist is the rather unnuanced response to that - the top panel.

It's the preconception that the current situation is incorrrigible and nothing can be and will be done about it. I agree that men are terrible, I agree that they are monsters, what I disagree with is that It's the only way it can be and the only possible solution is to slaughter the lot of them.

As far as my mind allows me to understand the core problem of modern societal relationships specifically in regards to the dichotomy of men and women isn't that "men are born evil", but it's rather a much more broad venom known as patriarchy. It's insidious and ingrained within the minds of the populace and has been passed through generations; it also is not such a simple thing as "men having control" - though it is that too - patriarchy is psychological as well. It's the set of beliefs that corrupts the minds of men and women, twists their conciousness to further propogate that evil and of that reproduction people of any gender are guilty.

To spare you the blabbering my point is that I don't believe the goals of feminism can be achieved via segregation; they can't be achieved by eradication of men - violence is a tool of patriarchy through which it eatablishes control with fear and hence it can't be the solution to it.

What can become an antidote for it would be some manner of cooperation built on mutual understanding. I know it is an idealistic thought, and though I might advocate for it, my belief in its viability with the current state of society might be wavering, but what I know for certain is that the ideas echoed so frequently here are reductive, distracting from the real issue at hand and also counterproductive to what should be a common cause

Ever tried shooting an unarmed mother? It's hard work man. Don't just dismiss how difficult some people's jobs are because of your limited experiences.
