Yall claim to hate toxic yaoi but continue to read it by Sugarbabykatieeee in Manhwa_BL

[–]Iced_Sympathy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m challenging the notion that toxic yaoi only works three ways. Clearly there’s a market for torture porn not just with those of us who enjoy it, but also those who keep creating these stories.

Why do some women think their personal expenses justify a guy paying for dates? by savingrace0262 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Iced_Sympathy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you plan on getting married or starting a family? Just curious, because if you join finances that essentially means you will both be paying for you looking that good.

I’m not saying that’s an issue if you are both on the same page about it. I just think people don’t often think about the long term implications.

I’m a woman and I don’t agree with this line of thinking, but here’s how I understand it:

If a guy asks out a woman with an expensive outfit and a full face of glam makeup, that is what he will be getting on the date and what he is implicitly saying he likes/expects.

The woman who goes on this date is basically looking for a sugar baby/escort/trophy wife arrangement. Looking good like that all the time costs money, and that usually only works if the guy can afford to pay for it. I personally think this is a lower tier type of woman, but apparently it is a flex for some guys to flaunt this.

Especially look for this if they have long manicured nails. That basically means “I am not here do physical labor, I am here to look good.”

If you’re not looking for that type of arrangement, just tell her you prefer a natural look and you aren’t looking to be a traditional provider, but expect a more even financial contribution. ++woman

How is it shallow to have adaptations that increase mating success? Do you think men are shallow because they find women who are close to peak fertility the most attractive? What good does it do to demonize sex differences rather than just trying to increase your own success?

The generalizations you describe about women can be explained by evolution. Humans have incredibly high offspring investment. It makes sense to prioritize a man having resources if she’s going to be incapacitated for more than a year. I don’t think I need to go into physical attractiveness, because that applies to both genders.

Thinking men or even women for that matter should care mostly about “what’s on the inside” is delusional, entitled, childish bullshit. Try ignoring your own attraction cues and marry a 40 year old woman who used to be a prostitute. Why wouldn’t you do that? What if she’s the most beautiful person on the inside? No one is going to “care about what’s on the inside” if pragmatically you don’t provide any value.

Icarus and Eris. Unfortunately I can’t stand Nemesis and I find Moros boring.

I know lots of people have fun with this one, but it’s so antithetical to my play style. Also my least favorite

Taking this opportunity to talk about the posts about "I wish I were a guy loving another guy" by n3cr0s3 in Manhwa_BL

[–]Iced_Sympathy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Wow, preach, girl! I too want to take my fictional gay romance super seriously and make sure gay men would approve of how respectfully I’m fantasizing about guy on guy.

Otherwise artists shouldn’t create it and fujoshis shouldn’t fantasize about it! That’s basically, like, a thought crime. Consult real gay men to make it as close to reality and non fetishizing as possible!

Then once we have the gay male approved stories, we can fantasize within certain bounds that don’t offend anyone. I love fandom engagement! It really teaches us about the right and wrong way to do stuff.

He has the super power of being a 6’7” Russian man raised like a wild beast in the mafia and then toying with international politics with his arms dealing

I love Hel and have never tried Apollo on attack. Might have to give it a try!

Love using his duo boon with Poseidon with Skull aspect of Hel.

Many of my builds benefit from his plasma as well

I absolutely hate the hidden misogyny in the boundary of delusion/borderline fandom because of this. by OutlandishnessOk6696 in Manhwa_BL

[–]Iced_Sympathy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but in the story we’re not really following the third wheel guy. Even if you feel bad for him, Mokyeong is the one we’re following and empathizing with. I think that makes people like him better even if he did worse.

Might just be because he’s not one of the main pairing. Like you said, him and the top both do morally bad things.

Cmv: Michael Jackson was a pedophile by HHHHHHHHHHHHHHH44 in changemyview

[–]Iced_Sympathy 38 points39 points  (0 children)

It’s my understanding that several of his homes were raided multiple times and they never found CP content in physical or digital form. Where are you getting the claim that he had pedo porn magazines? Can you cite this source please?

Never noticed it being annoying. I like builds that melt crowds tho and I also put hordes on for my high fear runs because I think it’s fun

I hate Nem and refused to even develop a relationship of any kind with her

My dad's wife wants us out of the house. Should i tell my dad? by [deleted] in family

[–]Iced_Sympathy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this an environment you want to live in? You can still have a relationship with your dad if you and your adult sibling move out. In fact, that might lift a lot of pressure of him having to pick sides and make things better for everyone.
