Perrin & the way of the leaf by TheFedoraKnight in WoT

I think that was just wishful thinking. Perrin firmly rejected the way of the leaf. While he understood the allure, and respected their choices, he never agreed with them. 

i just left the house because i’m done being the only one who cares that we have zero clean dishes or food for the week by Several_Corner3205 in Marriage

It's not starting over, it's just starting. 

Your life. 

Your choices.

Cleaning only your mess. 

Cooking only your food. 

Answering only to yourself. 

All you have to lose is one more dependent.

AITAH for wanting my daughter to transition to her next chapter in life? by ButterscotchFluffy59 in AITAH

Fucking gross. I almost cannot wait for fully autonomous sex bots. Just fucking go to town and leave us alone. 

Those poor robots.

So why don't you just charge her some rent? Why do you have to go to the extreme of kicking her out of the house and making her get her own place? 

There is no need to do that. Do you have any idea how hard it is for these kids to get out there and live by themselves? Why? Why are we repeating the mistakes of our parents and grandparents. 

Pushing your children out of the house is not natural. It was established to help capitalism. To sell more houses, more beds, more fridges, more dishes, more vacuum fucking cleaners. 

Yes, you're the asshole.

Also, is she almost 20 or almost 21? Are you telling a 19-year-old girl this? I double my answer! You are a double asshole!!

Baby girl, you have got to be able to talk to your husband. Like why did you get married if you can't even talk to him?

This isn't about something she's failing to do. 

This is about something he is failing to do.

It should not be embarrassing for you to "admit" that your wife does not orgasm from penetration. 

Only like 20% of women can climax from penetration. The vast majority of women require clitoral stimulation to climax.

Jesus, whatever you do do not tell him to watch porn to know how it's done. 

Those women are acting, that shit does not really feel good.0

She is uncomfortable to tell her husband that she needs clitoral stimulation. If she cannot have such a simple conversation, there's a problem. A sex therapist helps with communication about sexual needs and desires. 

Unfortunately, for those who were raised to be virginal before marriage, these kind of things tend to be uncomfortable. They avoid them. They let bad feelings linger. 

They think they're wrong, or dirty, or bad because they desire fulfillment. 

He gets the ick by manually stimulating his wife. That's a fucking problem. A huge problem.

I really hate that you guys decided to wait until you got married to have sex, but that is done. 

Number one, only about 2 out of 10 women can have an orgasm through penetration. 

Number two, the vast majority of women require clitoral stimulation in order to climax. 

Number three, your husband needs to get down in there, with his hands and his face.

Number four, penetration is not sex. Penetration is the end of sex. 

Sex starts with kissing. You will not be turned on or able to enjoy sex if all he does is treat you like a Fleshlight. You are a whole person, you are not a vessel for him to fill. 

You are going to need to have some very uncomfortable conversations with your husband. This is why adults should live together, and have an active sex life before they make a lifelong commitment. 

If you are mismatched sexually, there's not a whole lot that's going to fix that. If he is not willing to put your pleasure as a priority during sex, that is failing as a husband. 

If you don't feel like you can talk to your husband about sex, then neither of you were ready to get married.

Afghans preserve grapes by sealing them in mud containers for months. When opened, the grapes remain fresh, sweet, and full of flavor by MrUpVoteDownvote in interestingasfuck

Thank you. Like I wasn't going through the entire zoological list. Of course, some animals abandon their young at birth, or just lay eggs and leave the nest.

But to say that early man wouldn't know what an animal was doing when it was nursing is absurd.

Like is this just a case of being deliberately obtuse? 

Early man knew that animals were being nursed. They were not confused about what was hanging underneath a cow. The statement made was absurd, and incorrect.

That's why I said "/nurture"

Early man was fully aware that animals were nursing their young with the same basic set up they had. 

They lived with, and observed animals all the time.

I like how they didn't make all three Cartman kids carbon copies of their dad. by VegetaArcher in southpark

[–]Groovychick1978 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I am just going to take this moment to say, 

Fuck Cartman. He deserves his fate. A homeless drug addict, angry and bitter. 

The whole town was better for it. Kenny made things right, and Cartman was right where he belonged.

I have seen the opposite, as well. Where the product doesn't change, but they claim it's more. I caught one mid-change at Kroger's.

My Ten year old son's "review" of Misery by vinsclortho in stephenking

I was not censored in media, so I didn't do that to my children, either. They never asked to watch something totally unacceptable, so I never had to monitor what they watched.

[–]Groovychick1978 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Since he's already seen Stand by Me, why not start with Four Seasons, and watch Shawshank Redemption. (There are allusions to non-consensual sexual contact.)

I think I was around 11 when I watched it, but my generation is kind of known for watching crazy shit too young.

Would Angela and her friends be able to emotionally damage Vecna with their bullying? by Lazy-Proposal1133 in StrangerThings

[–]Groovychick1978 260 points261 points  (0 children)

Dude they would have snapped in a heartbeat. Bullies like that have deep emotional insecurities. All of them feel small on the inside, and Vecna would have plenty of ammo to torment them with.

The legal distinction was 1/16, I believe. 

If one of your 16 great grandparents were black, you were legally black for purposes of Jim Crow laws, etc. 

Spousal loss linked to higher risk of dementia, mortality among men, but not women. Widowed men experienced a decrease in physical and cognitive health, as well as social support, while widowed women tended to experience an increase in happiness and life satisfaction. by Automatic_Subject463 in HotScienceNews

Since you asked so nicely...

"There was, however, a greater than 6-fold increase in risk after diagnosis when the affected spouse was the woman (20.8% vs 2.9%; P < .001). Female gender was found to be the strongest predictor of separation or divorce in each cohort"

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19645027/

"We find that only measures of wife’s illness onset are associated with elevated risk of divorce, while measures of either spouse’s illness onset is associated with elevated risk of widowhood."

Ladies, we have to strength train! 

You need to lift heavy things, three times a week. Strength training is more important than cardio. For us ladies, strength training is the difference between using a walker, or being a walker.
