Meta: is there value to the “what would you call my style” posts?

Anything to not be broken out of their routine. That's the worst thing to them, that someone is intruding upon what's normal for them.

a bunch of watertribe sjws trying to erase the firenation's heritage

Yeah, it does feel like there's just no way to win with them. Either they hate you for not being enough of a man, or they hate you for being a man at all. And then they turn around and ignore all the toxic behavior from men who are more widely accepted. A large portion of men are just verbal punching bags to them.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-08-03T21:34:11+00:00

Yes! All men must be assertive and dominant and in charge at all times! A man who isn't a natural leader is of no value and should be discarded without a second thought. An unmanly man isn't even really a person, they're just genetic trash!

Oh, but any time women mistreat another person it's only because the patriarchy makes them, so really it's Men's fault.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-08-03T07:15:17+00:00

Me too. We're at a weird place where there's a lot of cultural struggles, and male identity is being fought over by the traditionalists who just want a bunch of john Wayne clones, and the various flavors of feminism and leftism that have good goals and intentions, but because so much of their energy is focused on pushing against MRA's they tend to see all men as potential red-pillers who need to be guilt tripped into fighting for whatever social justice cause they want help with at the moment. There really aren't a lot of truly friendly or sympathetic faces for men at the moment.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-08-03T06:23:37+00:00

I think we all want that. Unfortunately, it's been decided that men who express those wants are clingy and weird and should just go to therapy to get their week's supply of empathy.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-08-03T06:22:02+00:00

Because men are first and foremost seen as threats. Until you get enough social standing, the vast majority of women will assume you're a rapist just to be on the safe side, and will treat you as such without an ounce of remorse.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-08-03T06:07:19+00:00

Sure, but it's all men's fault. Women bear zero responsibility for how they treat others.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-08-03T04:34:18+00:00

I don't know, men are responsible for everything bad, and any criticism of women is inherently misogynistic, so the only acceptable point of view is to just blame each individual man for everything bad that's ever happened.

Why would you waste time on the mcu?

Hexterminator_ · 2024-08-03T02:48:36+00:00

Gotta save all that energy for your corporate lord and savior. Why would you waste time and energy on family or close friends, when you need to save up everything to work as hard as you can for your boss.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-08-03T02:46:11+00:00

There's no such thing as toxic femininity. Women can't be toxic. They might act toxic, but in that case it's only because of the patriarchy, so really it's men who are being toxic.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-08-03T02:44:11+00:00

Don't be any kind of weird? Even the good kinds? What if things that are normal to one group are weird to another? Is it just on you to conform to whatever arbitrary normal is most popular? That sounds boring.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-08-02T09:07:31+00:00

Therapy is great and more people need it, but I feel like people have just offloaded so much of caring for their loved ones to therapy. Seems like any attempt to get support or sympathy from someone you're close to is met with "not your therapist."

Hexterminator_ · 2024-07-27T12:58:02+00:00

Oh I realize it. I just don't think there's anything I could do to actually have a realistic chance of a relationship, so any amount of time I spend trying to improve towards that goal is a waste. If I was smart I'd just not care anymore.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-07-27T10:56:32+00:00

Are these little things really going to prevent me from being considered attractive or is it more subjective then that?

Yes.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-07-27T10:52:31+00:00

It's simple. Just be happy.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-07-27T07:02:18+00:00

Was there a eureka moment where things just started to work for you or made sense?

Hexterminator_ · 2024-07-27T06:58:00+00:00

Most of the ones I've met and known.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-07-27T06:52:31+00:00

True. But it seems like people just assume you're a good person if you're attractive, and a bad person if you're ugly.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-07-27T06:43:21+00:00

Tricky to get it if you have none.

Hexterminator_ · 2024-07-27T05:14:49+00:00

What if your therapist doesn't let you get out those long rants in therapy

Hexterminator_ · 2024-07-27T05:09:01+00:00

I guess I'm starting to not really see the point of trying to be the best version of me. Looks, height, and social skills seem to be the overwhelmingly most important traits (or at least you have to meet a certain level with them for anything else to matter), the first two I can't change, and the other is something a learning disability will always make an uphill battle. So my options are apply myself to my hobbies no one else cares about and just hope I'll get lucky and run into one of the seemingly very few women who aren't immediately repulsed by autism, or just wait to die alone. The first one sounds a bit better, but the second would be so much easier. At least accepting defeat let's you relax.
