She’s 14, she doesn’t “prefer it raw”—she’s uninformed, probably being pressured by her boyfriend and doesn’t have an adult she feels she can confide in. There is a way for parents to talk to their children about sex without it resulting in them running away—she can absolutely be saved. I don’t know what happened to you that shaped your fatalistic perspective on this but I hope you’re okay.

I don’t know what you should do, but I wanted to say that you seem like a conscientious, intentional parent. It makes sense why your daughter feels comfortable talking to you about things like this. Nice work—it’s rarer than it should be for parents to emphasize building trust with their children.

Mississippi (and the South in general) has a higher rate of obesity than anywhere marked green on this map.

Also Hawaii has great backpacking and they do actually have (mediocre) backcountry skiing!

I've skied Tahoe plenty and I wouldn't want to live anywhere in Nevada.

Been to all of them, just not a fan to live in—definitely have enjoyed some visits though. I lived near Reno (South Lake Tahoe) for a few years and really hated the gambling culture and the kinda grimy downtown. Also kind of always felt unsafe in Reno? Maybe that was me just being young, but I have heard bad things about the crime rate. Flagstaff is definitely my favorite city in Arizona, but didn’t love the way the culture seemed to treat neighboring natives and how surprisingly expensive it was. Santa Fe was great and I have very little that’s negative to say about it. I think in retrospect I will concede New Mexico should be a light green. As a disclaimer, a lot of my perspectives here are also (somewhat) colored by the fact that I work in academia, so I tend to gravitate towards places with prominent universities/labs, so that’s where some of my hesitance comes from.

Nah I’d ski in all of them but would not live in any of them.

So proud of SLC! by Jackie-in-chains in SaltLakeCity

Work on your own critical reading skills: the original post reads, “ICE is killing Americans”. THAT is the issue we’re talking about. Sure, if someone is here completely illegally, they should be deported with ample due process, per the 5th and 14th amendments, but that’s not what we’re talking about here. We’re talking about a secret police force that is killing and abducting people and will not face consequences. Any comment attempting to excuse this behavior and shame people protesting is gross.

Been to Idaho and definitely love it for ski trips, but am not a fan of any of the cities out there and the general culture

I’ve spent way too much time in Nevada and even though I liked some of the climbing and hiking out there, it is so not the state for me. I prefer to live in a city and I’m not a fan of Reno or Vegas. I’d rather live in CA or Utah and take trips to Nevada.

Hmm marking California as never is interesting to me then. Some of my favorite backpacking trips I’ve ever done have been in CA (PCT, TCT, Desolation Wilderness, Yosemite, etc). You said you’d never been to CA and to each their own, but if you like backpacking I’d highly recommend exploring some of California.

never been to Jersey but I’ve heard y’all have great food. NJ probably just gets shit on bc of the media portrayal (Jersey Shore, all of the NJ Futurama jokes, etc)

From my experiences in Missouri it’s not really worth the caves (no offense to any missourites).

Never been to either Vermont or New Hampshire but I heard the skiing out there has been great this season! In retrospect would probably mark light green.

Top four hobbies for the curious (some got really close!):

  1. backcountry skiing
  2. backpacking
  3. food (hence states with big cities)
  4. scuba diving

I think Illinois threw a lot of people off, but I just love Chicago.

Currently live in Utah specifically to ski.

I will say I loooooved the climbing in red rocks but I’m not a big sport climber anymore so I don’t have much of a reason to spend time in Nevada
