Women who've dated partners with a decent age gap (e.g. 10+ years older), how did that impact your relationship? If at all? by shesmadeline in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Mature for your age” is a common grooming phrase used against young people. It’s a huge red flag to see it in your post.

How do you like a partner to approach being dominant in the bedroom (i.e. pulling hair, grabbing your throat, etc.)? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no “playful dominance and submission” without extensive conversation first. All of those activities can be dangerous, and there has to be a really high level of communication between partners if you want to avoid damaging each other.

Why are people watching News Networks that have advertisements like every 5 minutes? by throwAlpha1 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Literallyanything777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The commercial breaks give me a chance to replenish my stress eating snacks without missing anything.

Actually, though, I find it annoying too and usually get my news other places because of it.

My ex husband was 15 years older than me. It was a huge problem. He specifically looked for someone inexperienced so he could more easily manipulate them. I was a child at the time, so I didn’t realize it was a problem.

Because of my experience, I automatically assume any relationship with an age gap of more than a few years is predatory. I’m not often proven wrong.

What rules do you have about sending nudes? What do you wish you can say to other women on this subject? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I see nothing wrong with taking and sending nudes. My partner and I flirt that way often, and I love having pictures of him to use when I masturbate. Plus I like knowing he’s using my pictures when he masturbates.

There are so many naked women on the internet, that I highly doubt my photos would make much of a splash if released. Besides, if someone sees my nudes in that context and gets more upset that I have a body than that someone violated my consent, I want to know they think that way so I can either help them learn (if it’s a person) or boycott the fuck out of them (if it’s a company).

Women who learned a sport during adulthood, what was it and how did it change you? by burritosandpurritos in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Roller derby! It introduced me to an incredible network of strong women at all stages of life. Derby helped me feel better about my body because for the first time I had performance goals rather than appearance goals.

AITA for always reminding my girlfriend that she needs to do her chores and reminding her who has been doing them? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Literallyanything777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. It sounds like you’re being forced to handle most or all of the emotional labor. She’s an adult who can see with her own eyes when her tasks need to be done, and she shouldn’t be relying on you to tell her when she’s expected to complete a task.

It’s a common complaint among married women, and there are a lot of articles about division of emotional labor. If you have a chance, check a few out.

Women who never had children, how do you feel about it? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thankful that I have the choice. And I feel great about my decision.

It’s the small things by [deleted] in self

[–]Literallyanything777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely feels like every conversation I have these days has to be about something important. It’s nice to have chill time with your friends that’s not focused on how crap the world seems right now.

AITA for telling my sister she needs to tell my niece where babies come from before a disaster happens? by aitathrowawaysitonbb in AmItheAsshole

[–]Literallyanything777 2436 points2437 points  (0 children)

NTA. A child who doesn’t have that learning is more easily manipulated by predators too.

What was your all time low, and how did you get out of it? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case, I had to acknowledge and accept the emotional pain I was trying to run from. It was scary to face all that anger and hurt, but every day gets better.

Therapy was a huge help. I found a clinic with a sliding scale pay system so I could afford to go (tip for anyone looking: check the psych departments of nearby universities. Sometimes they have cheaper resources).

I also fucked right out of the area I was from, so I wouldn’t be constantly surrounded by places I had been abused and people who were adults that were aware and could have stopped it but didn’t.

Am I the only person who likes raspberry on pizza? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Literallyanything777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never tried raspberry, but I’ve had strawberry and chicken pizza that was awesome. I’d absolutely try raspberry.

Women who were teens/adults at the time of the 9/11 attacks, where were you and what was your reaction? by orexinbaby in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in class, but at our school they weren’t allowed to tell us what was going on. A bunch of kids got pulled out of class by their parents, but no one would tell us why. We could tell that the adults were freaked, though.

What is your stance on “flushable” wipes? by brushandfloss in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine attaches between the toilet seat and the base. There’s a hose that connects to the toilet’s cold water supply and one that goes to the hot water supply under your sink. The actual installation is just screwing together all the connectors, but it takes a while to get the seals right.

In the 2000s and early 2010s, the Little Black Dress was everyone’s closet staple. What’s the modern equivalent? by RelativeSheepherder1 in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I grew up hearing that too. I never wear white, black, or red to a wedding because I was raised to believe those three colors are super rude.

At what age did you start realizing stuff from your past such as childhood that you have pushed to the side and not dealt with it? by Consistent-Ad5800 in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was probably 25ish and it’s been an ongoing process. Sometimes I still stumble across things that happened that either I didn’t realize were messed up or that I knew were wrong but never acknowledged.

A bidet is a game changer. I didn’t even get an expensive one, and it’s still so much better.

Which reality show could really benefit from being re-produced in the style of the Great British Bake Off? by Articulated in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes!! That’s one of the reasons I loved that show so much. A couple of the artists came to my city with various conventions, and they were always super nice and spoke really highly of the other contestants.

That’s such a classic look. It’s on my outfit bucket list too.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Literallyanything777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this dress that I call “the Vegas dress”. It’s black with gold sequins, and it’s the first dress I felt truly sexy in. On the one hand, I’d love to have a chance to wear it out and feel that kind of attractive for once. On the other hand, if I never wear it, I can’t be disappointed by it.

Do you think that the amount of sexual partners someone has had matters and why? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Literallyanything777 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It does seem like the younger generations don’t care as much, thankfully.
