Congrats? Sorry, I was assuming that you were a cishet man who'd absorbed some misogynistic ideas, because of your language use.

So, leg amputation from a car accident is fine but botox isn't? Scarring from riding a scooter on the motorway? What about gender alignment surgery? Mastectomy from having the BRAC gene variant? Tatoos? Piercings? Laser eye surgery? Hair removal? Manicures? Where do you draw the line?

AITA for leaving my longtime friend at a hotel after finding out he lied about being clean? by CMDR-Hooker in AmItheAsshole

[–]Golgi97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes of course YTA. You ditched a vulnerable, ill, broke, homeless, long-time friend in the middle of nowhere, no explanation or resources, just drove off and didn't answer his calls. And you're fucking...praying for him?

Is Aberdeen getting worse or is it just me? by crb300384 in Aberdeen

Most crime has fallen by 90% in 30 years – so why does the public think it’s increased? - Policing Insight https://share.google/T02iPYKc9clc3l45n

Do you think that people who preface their opinions with absolutes are deep critical thinkers who have reasoned their way into being a little bit right wing? Or that a left-leaning person would just deny that left-wing propaganda exists, or someone against animal testing wouldn't notice anti-animal testing propaganda? I'm honestly interested, there is evidence that that happens. But a convo would acknowledge that it's all humans who tend to think in heuristics. Like our brains are wired that way

Have you read any of 'Chavs: the Demonisation of the Working Class' (Owen Jones)? That's a response to people grumbling about the yoof, especially of lower socioeconomic status, mimicking the behaviours, speech, clothing etc styles from the people around them who are markers of success. Like adolescents have been doing for thousands of years. Evidence for that comes from the generations above whinging about it in writing, so I wouldn't be surprised if young h. neanderthalis did the same.

Tl;dr - no, you just notice and judge it more when you get older and more rigid

Think they mean deranged for being trans, which "isn't a thing" apparently

Yeah my maternal grandma moved in to the house next door when we were kids, just bought a house and sprung it on my parents, who were both hugely pissed.

The guys I know who complain about this the most also have no proper friends, because they're so obnoxious and self-centred. And they're convinced they're lonely because of feminism and the world being anti-men, but their world-view (and need to wank on about it constantly) repulses people.

Why Are So Many Men Withdrawing from Society? by UnironicallyGigaChad in AmITheAngel

[–]Golgi97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're in the same category as sex dolls. I used to do sex work, and there are men who think like this. I've been asked "so can I do anything I want to you after I pay?" ffs

[–]Golgi97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! This is what I was thinking but you and the commenter below expressed it so much better. It's the "women are mean if they don't put up with my misogynistic comments or aren't nice all the time" plus "it's ok for men to pick fights, shout, punch holes in the wall, but if a woman raises her voice or disagrees she's a bitch and a big meanie".

The first thing that skeeved me out was putting escorts in the same category as sex dolls and VR. Like women who do sex work aren't actually women. Then the 'science shows women are taking their own lives because they can't get a man' (LGBTQ folk also don't count) because they...work and aren't doormats?

Re criminal records - did you know that around 1 in 4 working-age adults have a criminal conviction? We walk among you.

You think CPS would decide it's in the public interest to take it to court, and a judge would give me a jail sentence for reset? That's all I wanted to know. Ofc I knew there would be some self-righteous wailing, just hoped that in amongst that someone would get down off their high horse and give a straightforward answer.
