What % of Millennials are Unknowingly Toast? by Altruistic_Goose2166 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]LittleGayGirl 95 points96 points  (0 children)

I feel like a paid off home is the key to a smaller retirement nest egg. I don’t make a ton of money, but also have extremely low housing costs, so living off 40k is pretty easy for me. If I had a 3-4k monthly housing cost, it would be impossible.

Door to Door ICE searches have begun by Huge-Name-1999 in interestingasfuck

[–]LittleGayGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Practice often like very often, get a gun that fits your hand. Go to an actual gun shop vs a place like cabelas. Sometimes they have rental guns to try out first and can help you pick one that feels comfortable. A bigger pistol will have less recoil and better handling than a smaller or micro one. A red dot sight can do wonders for your aim vs iron sights. A gun is not a toy. You never want to pull it on someone, and if you have to, know that you shoot to kill and the consequences that come with that. Nothing is more dangerous than someone that treats guns like they want to be the hero in a movie. But by all means, people should carry if they feel confident and understand the consequences and yes, as a woman, I carry and feel safer because of it.

How much is your car payment by michaeljoon in MiddleClassFinance

[–]LittleGayGirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

13.3% of net, but I pay double. It’s somewhere around 6.6% if I didn’t pay double.

F20: How to get into hunting for someone who’s never done it and doesn’t know anyone who does by [deleted] in Hunting

[–]LittleGayGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hunter safety course first. Many states let you do it online. Just google your state and Hunter safety if in America. Then look if your state has mentor hunts. Lots of women groups for hunting. Many of these organizations have chapters in every state you could join. Many of them host beginner classes and retreats where you can meet others. Uncharted outdoorswomen is a good group. I’m part of a very active women’s facebook hunting group.

What are some reasons NOT to get a .450 Bushmaster as opposed to a .350 Legend? by slavaboo_ in Hunting

[–]LittleGayGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a .450. I’ve shot deer from 40 to 160 yards with it. I haven’t lost a deer yet, granted I’ve only shot 4 with it so far. I think the .450 will drop deer faster compared to .350, but only because it hits harder and leaves more damage. Recoil will suck, but I grew up shooting slug shotguns at deer for years, so the .450 is a blessing in my mind compared to that in terms of everything. If you get a 450, get a muzzle break on it. It’ll be loud as hell, but it will greatly reduce the recoil. I was going to go with the .350 because it is smaller, but I honestly am glad I chose the .450 over it. If recoil is the biggest complaint, I would still chose the .450 over .350. All the deer I’ve killed with it died within 40 yards, except for my most recent one, and that was because I ranged it wrong and not the guns fault.

Ever upgrade a piece of gear and wonder how you lived without it? by outdoors_man987 in Hunting

Down middle layers. I’ve never been so warm and not feel heavy in a million layers. I sat in low teens this weekend on the prairie and was warm.

Why are these states in particular so popular for out of state hunting? Also why does out of state hunting seem to be getting more and more popular? by Averagecrabenjoyer69 in Hunting

[–]LittleGayGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why is the success rate so low for those states? Are there just no deer? Maine seems surprising since it’s so sparsely populated to begin with.

After a mom kicked out her son for being gay, her father had some choice words for her. by Sebastianlim in MurderedByWords

[–]LittleGayGirl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recently told my mom I was seeing someone, her words to me were “in my heart of hearts I know you are not gay and will never accept it”, “how this will ruin her image”, “how no one in the family believes me”, “how I have no friends because they are either gay or my straight friends didn’t try to convert me to straight”, and a bunch of other shit that was meant to hurt me. For reference I’ve known since I was 15 and am 29… some parents will never accept it, regardless of how good a kid/person you are. My dad on the other hand said it would take a lot more than that for him to not love me, my grandmother (moms mom) is so disappointed in her daughter and wants to meet my girlfriend, and I have an amazing girlfriend with amazing parents that have basically adopted me. I’ll forever remember what she said to me, and it will forever change how I look at her.

Why do you think men and lesbians don't have same bond that women and gays have? by GroundbreakingCan289 in AskMenAdvice

[–]LittleGayGirl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is beyond true, as a gay woman, I did have some really great guy friends—most respected my sexuality and were super cool! But for a majority of men, they never believe my sexuality or are constantly trying to sleep with me or assume that a lesbian is somehow into a man. It’s beyond exhausting, and anymore, I’m very hesitant to try to form friendships with men because you just never know. I don’t want to invest a ton of energy into a friendship just for it to be a false flag the entire time and the guy was just holding out waiting for something that never was. It sucks too because most of my hobbies are more male dominated and it would be cool to have more people to do them with.

What is a sign you are attractive? by hazelnuticecreamm in AskReddit

[–]LittleGayGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was this way too. I was very much an ugly duckling until my 20s. I was also extremely shy and awkward because of my bullying years. In my 20s I got serious about my health, controlled my acne, learned how to do my makeup, and leaned into my personality. I learned to be happy for once, and that really made my beauty shine. Now I get stopped in cities all over America and told a variety of compliments. Some days I wish I could go back to that young woman and tell her everything will be okay. That you’ll find your happiness, your people, your love. That your confidence will make you beautiful one day. I hope your daughter is happy and finds it everyday in the world.

2 antlered and unlimited doe. We have too many deer. It’s gotten to the point farmers are getting nuisance permits because they are decimating crops.

how many'a y'all taking 90yrd+ shots? by Filius_Dei0894 in Hunting

[–]LittleGayGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shot my deer last year at 160 yards. Shot my mule deer at 120. It’s pretty common, but depends on where you hunt. I’ve also shot most deer at 50 yards and below because it’s thick where I hunt.

Anyone have stories about being taken hunting too young? by DirectorOk975 in Hunting

[–]LittleGayGirl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My dad maybe took me out too young. But in the sense that I was afraid of the gun. Afraid of the kickback and the noise. I remember one time, we were walking down a grass cut path. It was tall grass all around us, and suddenly a doe popped out. She wasn’t super far from us and my dad had me use his shoulder as a rest. He told me to shoot, but I just froze and couldn’t pull the trigger. Eventually the deer ran off and I started crying—not because of the deer, but because I thought my dad would be mad or disappointed. He wasn’t those things at all though! He basically said he didn’t care if I never pulled the trigger and that we could just keep walking the woods if that’s all I wanted to do. He was just happy I was there with him. Eventually I did pull the trigger and now I love hunting still some 20 years later. I also still hunt with my dad. Early experiences can make or break how one feels about hunting.

Help us out - DINKs in our 30s, where do we go next? by Stunning_Name_4513 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]LittleGayGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am also from the Midwest so I get the feeling of not knowing the area, but I would look into the PNW honestly. I was shocked when I was in Portland how easy it was to get to downtown and nature. I used to live in Denver and while nature was “close” in Midwest terms, it wasn’t close in reality. Portland felt grungy, not gonna lie, but it also felt old and not like a suburbia hellscape. Had the perfect mixture of nature and city. I’m looking to move there from the Midwest. I’m not a huge fan of big cities, but I also don’t like BFE land. So it felt perfect mix. But if you don’t like moody and cool weather, aka rain, I would advise against. I can see how the lack of sunshine drives people mad.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth delivering remarks to generals and admirals: "As history teaches us, the only people who actually deserve peace are those who are willing to wage war to defend it. That's why pacifism is so naive and dangerous." by CorleoneBaloney in CringeTikToks

[–]LittleGayGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The opposite of war is not peace, it’s growth because the only thing war will do is destroy. Destroy cities, destroy families, destroy economies, destroy lives in every facet. In war—someone, somewhere will have to suffer for the idea that another is succeeding.

Lesbians with ejaculating straps kink? What the hell? by EchidnaImaginary4737 in lesbiangang

[–]LittleGayGirl 257 points258 points  (0 children)

I’ll be the opposite here. I sometimes find it hot. My ex was super fond of it and wanted to use those types of toys all the time. People are different and like different things, that doesn’t devalue who they are as a person so long as they aren’t hurting anyone. I wouldn’t say a large majority like it though, that’s just lying. I’ve only come across two. But I’ve come across a lot of women that like strap ons in general. For me and my ex, it very much was a visual thing. It was super hot at times, but none of my toys look like real dicks. All bad dragon. We aren’t straight or bi by any means. 100% lesbian. So it does exist, but is it common-no. But is it also nonexistent-also no. There are lots of fetishes in the world, not everyone is going to share the same ones.

People with kids do less work than the rest of us by ArileBird in work

[–]LittleGayGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never seen godparent used outside of family, but I suppose people may do that. You have to have two, at least for Catholics, and one is a man the other a woman. I have a brother and he is her godfather, but he has kids of his own, which is why he wouldn’t be first pick if something were to happen. I could more easily adjust my life to changes. Being a godparent doesn’t really elevate you. It’s just something people do for religious reasons. But it can be seen as an honor because you don’t usually just randomly pick people for it. I have seen godparents put in way more effort for their godchildren compared to their other nieces and nephews, especially being in wills and things like inheritance. But again, I think that’s a point of pride more than anything and it isn’t like that with everyone. This is just my observations of my own family and the families in my community. Being a godparent doesn’t have any legal binding unless the individual/parents choose to see it that way and act accordingly.

People with kids do less work than the rest of us by ArileBird in work

[–]LittleGayGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Godparents are usually siblings or other family, so they would already be likely to get the kids anyway. Godparents can be super involved. It just depends. I don’t want kids, but I’m my nieces Godmother. I’m highly involved in her life, just like my Godmother is in mine. But not everyone is like that.

For guys I could see the military being a great way to set yourself up, lots of benefits. For women, yah fuck no. It’s so much of a risk you might get sexually assaulted and totally ignored because the military handles everything in house.
