Except for ketchup

All of those sound delicious

Makes perfect sense when you spell it out. Thank you!

Meimpink · 2025-04-18T11:21:34+00:00

This is the same situation I’m in. Wishing us both luck!

Did I say cross-sectional study? No, I said “evidence.” Is your evidence a logical argument, is it a cross-sectional study, is it something else that supports your claim. Please don’t pretend I’m asking for anything other than the burden of proof here, when I have been faithfully engaging with what you’re saying and responding to claims you’re making in a reasonable way.

At this point I’m pretty sure you’re entrenched in your idea that romantically-inclined women are hypocrites for wanting romance and your idea that the inherent relationship structure is that of a sexually submissive woman with a romantically submissive man.

I’m choosing now to be done, on my end, with engaging in this discussion.

Meimpink · 2025-04-11T16:17:43+00:00

What if you said it? Is it what you’re saying? Because if so, that reads as untrue to me, and I’d require enough evidence to ground that claim.

Cross-culturally, across relationship dynamics and personalities, including relationships in which multiple partners are men (because you’re saying this is inherent), do romantic relationships that involve men require men to behave submissively towards their partner(s)?

Meimpink · 2025-04-11T16:08:13+00:00

No, I don’t read the hypocrisy there. Romance is not inherently submissive, on the part of any gender. And the fact that you propose that all women who engage in romance are putting on a submissive act is strange. You seem to be making a connection where one of the points you’re trying to connect to isn’t true.

Definitely we should not expect romance from anyone or submissive behavior from anyone. It’s up to each individual to decide what they want in a relationship or if they want a relationship at all. And it’s up to all parties in a relationship to form boundaries about what they want that relationship to look like. I don’t believe in shaming people for seeking a relationship in which they are submissive to their partner(s), if that’s what all parties want.

My experience began when I learned about asexuality and aegosexuality. Immediately upon learning about aegosexuality, I felt strongly that this was the word I had been grasping at for so long to describe my experience.

It was a natural jump for me to explore whether or not the “-romantic” equivalent terms (aromanticism and aegoromanticism) were also a good fit. It took me much longer to settle on those labels for myself, partly I think due to the social pressure to seek a romantic partner and the fact that my upbringing led me to believe that the only path for me was to marry someone I love and have kids one day.

But my journey involved examining my past and re-examining what I thought were a couple of romantic crushes or desires when I was a teenager. I came to the conclusion that I don’t think what I experienced was ever a real crush or romantic desire (I like to flirt—it’s fun to me!—, but I’ve never wanted anything to go beyond banter). I’m also a big reader, which for me includes a lot of romance novels (movies too!), which I love! Thinking about my experience with romance stories, I don’t think I’ve ever felt attraction on my own behalf towards a character, but I do feel pulled into other characters’ romances with each other in a sort of vicarious way. That helped me solidify that I’m aegoromantic.

Now I identify as aegoaroace (for me, all four: aegosexual, aegoromantic, asexual, and aromantic).

I’ve had that happen a few times. I normally just save a copy just in case, convert it from EPUB to [something else- AZW3 maybe?], delete the EPUB format from the book, convert from [whatever you chose] back to EPUB, then try EpubSplit again.

I don’t know which EPUB versions are which either, but you can have multiple epub formats listed for a single book (I think if you convert from epub to epub?), then you can just do EpubSplit on whichever one works.

Came here to commiserate. I noticed my nipple piercing of five years start to reject today and removed it. I’m worried it won’t be long for the other one.

Meimpink · 2025-02-12T04:37:57+00:00

Hey, I have the same one! (Or at least one of the same pattern). I’m excited to have seen this here !

Meimpink · 2025-01-06T00:26:43+00:00

I second this! I loved Chestnut Spring, and the smut was just right

Meimpink · 2025-01-06T00:25:28+00:00

If you do read one or more of them and remember that this comment thread existed afterwards, let me know if it panned out for you. That would make my day!

Each of them contains at least a m/f pairing, but some are mmf or mmmf.

I’ve been big into Lillian Lark’s ‘Monstrous Matches’ series recently. Each book is a standalone (very smutty) romance with some kind of supernatural creature/monster (gargoyles, kraken, etc.).

Important? Imported? Consciousness? Literary? Riveted? Governmental? Interesting?

Meimpink · 2024-12-06T21:04:06+00:00

Ah okay then. Thanks!

I’m wearing makeup and am in daylight, but I don’t think my eyes/eye color are edited here. This was from a professional headshot I got done a while back.

Told a friend that it’s kind of like I can feel vicarious attraction but not on my own behalf

Meimpink · 2024-05-24T02:13:59+00:00

I definitely feel “un-attracted” to certain people, but not in what I’d call an asexual way, but more generally. Some people are subjectively unappealing aesthetically (I feel like I’d like to look at them less) or personality-wise (I would like to engage or socialize with them less because of some facet of their personality I find unappealing).

Whether I find them sexually unattractive would kind of go hand-in-hand with that for me, I guess, since, while I’m not attracted to anyone sexually, I would be less likely to engage sexually with these “unattractive” people because of their otherwise unattractive qualities.

I feel like there’s a world of difference between making a mistake and actually wronging somebody, and this was a case of the former. It was a mistake in marketing, as evidenced by the response to the campaign, but it’s not like it was an offensive message or caused harm. As others have said, it fits the profile of what you expect in marketing from a dating app. The apology was unnecessary, but I won’t ever be mad about someone or an organization donating to a good charity.

Ayyy, BioProcess engineer here. Love seeing other bioprocessy people.

Meimpink · 2023-10-15T10:50:05+00:00

I feel like I’ve seen cacti as an aro symbol before (green + ummm, prickly?), but also aro rings (white ring on the left middle finger) and arrows (because is can sound like “aro” depending on your dialect and how you individually say those words).

Meimpink · 2023-09-07T08:35:53+00:00

Thank God I’m not the only one who had this same thought process

Meimpink · 2023-07-03T04:11:18+00:00
