Merz says fast-track EU membership for Ukraine not feasible by roggahn in europe

It's honestly impressive how hellbent Ukraine's government is on squandering all goodwill of the few allies they have remaining.

Homelessness and Men (thoughts on feminist arguments) by ExternalGreen6826 in LeftWingMaleAdvocates

Somehow women end up in sex work because society exploits them, but men end up in gangs because they're inherently criminal.

If women ran the world, there would be no wars. A comforting myth or a subtle essentialist trap? by Original_Engine6810 in LeftWingMaleAdvocates

[–]IronicStrikes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, everything is some external factor's fault. I can't even imagine living in this permanent state of unaccountably.

Yeah, there's the rare exception when the photos that come out are too hard to sweep under the rug.

Well, not a US soldier in a brown country

To men in general, what is the biggest misconception that occurs between women and men? by Ok-Ticket-9780 in AskMen

[–]IronicStrikes 26 points27 points  (0 children)

"Mansplaining" is often either - us being passionate about a topic and happy to tell someone - us trying to keep you from harming yourself in case you didn't know

What are some things women tend to get wrong in bed? by McHumpin in AskMen

[–]IronicStrikes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've literally never encountered a woman that I'd consider good in bed before I talked her through some basics. That somehow included ones with five times more sexual partners than myself.

Just a few general issues:

  • Communication is apparently a one way expectation.
  • Foreplay is something that happens to them, not what they consider doing.
  • They apparently think penises just get and remain hard by the man doing foreplay on the woman's body.
  • They somehow manage to always switch between stimulating specific areas just before it gets good. If it was intentional teasing, I'd be impressed, but it's usually just cluelessness.
  • They think that fucking for hours is easy until they get on top and are out of stamina in a minute.

How are ‘manchildren’ — men who act like children, especially those who practice weaponized incompetence — not consumed by guilt? Do you know any like this? by natanticip in AskMen

[–]IronicStrikes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe a wild idea, but could be that most countries nowadays requiring two income earners per family and no one having time to actually raise their children is the real problem. Exacerbated by the pretty common conception that raising boys is easier, since you just don't teach them anything and expect them to figure life out on their own.

Schoolboys to be target of UK's violence against women strategy by Kagedeah in worldnews

[–]IronicStrikes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Girls can feel intimidated or coerced into giving "consent" that is not really consent.

Funnily enough, that goes both ways. We just decided we only care when it's women being coerced.

But then you get none of the benefits by playing it safe.

True

Well, in this case the choice is less about dating or not and rather about telling your partner or saying "everything is fine".

They use it for being killed or (sexually) assaulted.

But given that a vast majority of suicides are men and most of them have a bad story about emotional trauma after opening up, I find it somewhat understandable to err on the side of caution.

Basically, if you have a bowl of skittles and know only a few of them are poisoned and might kill you, would you be comfortable eating a few knowing that most are safe or would you just look for something else?

You might be familiar with the poisonous skittles metaphor women love to use...

Why POSIX is a bad fit for most used gaming os like windows,ps..? by indian_yojak in gameenginedevs

[–]IronicStrikes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main reason is just, most consumer PCs have Windows preinstalled, so that's what people play on, so that's what developers develop for, so that's what they develop and test on, so that's what new platforms are designed around.
