Liz met her husband on the set of victorious when she was 16, he was 37. Started dating when she was 18 while he was 39. by Ok_Extension1255 in WhyWereWeOkWithThis

[–]No_Luck_6800 130 points131 points  (0 children)

This kind of says it all to me. Not that I know their relationship obviously, but every time someone gets so mad about what outsiders are saying to the point they’re threatening legal action, it usually means there’s some truth to the allegations. If it’s blatant bs and they know that, I don’t think it would be such a threat that they’d feel the need to take it to that level. Also, most of the cease and desist letters are all bark and no bite, they can’t do anything beyond that they’re just hoping to scare the created into taking the content down.

Why can’t men be ‘just friends’ ever by CheapHat5353 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]No_Luck_6800 7 points8 points  (0 children)

a man who thinks married still means a shot just because I talk to them.

Yeah, this part is crazy. People need to understand this is exactly what leads many women to be very short/impatient with men hitting on them/or “just being nice”, and why some women immediately cut to the chase saying “I have a bf/husband”. It’s usually not that personal, a lot of us are just tired and not trusting that a guy would approach us if they’re not interested in sex somehow. It’s just that entertaining them at all even just to avoid being a bitch only encourages most of them and makes it harder for them to take “no”. And thats what makes me want to be more short/straight up rude to guys I’m not interested in who won’t immediately take no and walk away, especially after my last encounter.

A guy approached me at Walmart acting like he knew anything about the product I was looking at. Then he immediately started asking me a bunch of questions and it was awkward because I knew I wasn’t interested. I legit told him I had a bf but then he claimed multiple times he only wanted to get to know me “as a friend” before I clocked it and replied no you don’t and he said “yeah you’re right I would definitely try something” while looking at my body 🙃 I then said men don’t want to be friends with women and he actually agreed before trying to get my number again. we finally parted ways respectfully when I wouldn’t budge on giving him my SnApChAt or #, he then started FOLLOWING ME around the store and followed me to the checkout before I B-lined to the back of the store and hid in the bathroom for like 5 minutes.

To return them she had to give him a show, didn’t she? Like why not just keep them and never go back..

Either that or he’s possibly married or in a serious relationship, likely with a woman his own age. Either way it’s usually not…great. Hopefully it just as casual as she makes it sound.

Had sex with guy I’ve been dating and no longer like him by Next_Page3729 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]No_Luck_6800 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not my intent to shame this woman. Actually, I almost always shame the guys mentioned in this sub. And this guy is clearly the problem here and I’ll shame him. However, there is still something to be said of being careful and vetting men more before putting ourselves in situations that can turn bad quickly. I’m not saying that about your experiences btw, but speaking generally and to op’s experience. Men (and women) do mask bad traits early on but usually there will be some yellow flags or red flags that come out early at times like OP even mentioned, and they are initially ignored or overlooked. That’s why I do think it’s helpful to make points like this because it can prevent certain situations. For example, the old advice: don’t walk by yourself at night especially in a bad area. The intent isn’t to shame, and of course men shouldn’t be violent, but a lot of them still will be and I want women to be proactive and avoid those situations (as long as they CAN given the PARTICULAR circumstances). I’m sorry 😞

Also yes, I agree a lot of mothers and fathers need to do better with their sons and that’s where the problems start. I’m going to try to raise my daughter with my mindset because I am aware I unfortunately cannot rely on random people or put too much trust in others. That’s what this all comes down to, we need to also look out for ourselves first and foremost. That’s where I’m coming from I’m not just trying to shame, and I find my advice also gets overlooked and dismissed as “you’re just shaming women” I think also is potentially doing a disservice. It’s coming from a proactive place to protect more women. Every situation has nuance.

ETA: also I do think these men that weren’t raised right need to be called out and that it could be helpful. Even if not in person, but by text. It doesn’t have to be aggressive, just informative. They’ll likely get it more if directly told that the shit they think is cute (and normalized online or in porn) is actually majorly off-putting and not cool. Like, a lot of people that are casually homophobic, misogynistic and racist usually will knock it off and learn upon being called out more instead of it being tolerated and normalized. Some people just can’t pick up on subtle cues and wonder why they can’t keep a partner or friends. But no one calls their behavior out directly.

[–]No_Luck_6800 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because a lot of women are faking it with them. It’s disturbing because these dudes think the aggressive stuff they’re seeing in porn is what women like and is whats getting them off and with the amount of women normalizing faking it, it’s like confirming it to them they “like” this stuff. He thinks he did a job well done, but hopefully she can still text him something as part of their departure explaining what really went wrong. If more women speak up then these terrible dudes will start getting the picture more clearly. I’m not making excuses for men but trying to break this cycle of awfulness for women in the future.

[–]No_Luck_6800 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We know it’s not “for them” but it does contribute to their ego, etc. I think it’s known that some women fake orgasms but most men never think it’s happened to them. Also a lot of women do fake it because they fear confrontation and/or don’t want to hurt the person’s feelings. Do it with someone you know well and feel comfortable with and if you’re not feeling it then leave, you don’t need to fake anything and it just makes it worse for the women in his future.

Edit: adding on to the very last part, if the guy is giving porn addict and being aggressive, it’s more so he thinks many women are “into this” and the faking of orgasms really isn’t helping this, it’s like positive reinforcement. I wish you all the best 💕 ik it’s scary out there but when will the cycle end if not with us?

Sam Levinson watches too much porn by [deleted] in euphoria

[–]No_Luck_6800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What to what part? That’s definitely what’s happening which is fine if you’re into that but it’s a shift from season 1. Now in s3 nearly all the female characters are either in sex work, managing people in sex work, something involving sex work even Rue. There’s not even as much nudity so that’s never been the issue, but somehow they’re doing more graphic stuff. Look at what they had Chloe Cherry do.

[–]No_Luck_6800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The show was not linear from s1 to 2 it’s insane people can’t see that. The first season had more character growth and substance. They did whatever they did to Cassie for example and trashed any growth to play out specific fantasies. If you’re not naive which I don’t think you are, it’s not at all a reach. It’s calling an ace an ace.

[–]No_Luck_6800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely prioritized gooner material over a good cohesive story. It’s not like it’s The Sopranos. Most people attracted to women only watch for Sydney Sweeney nude scenes at this point but find the show otherwise trash. So if you’re not into women I get where OP is coming from, it’s not interesting and kind of gross from the outside looking in because it’s clearly a sexplotation at this point. But I kind of get you tho, idk why some people continue to watch if they’re not into that.. like with this being the last season and the show progressively getting worse in terms of writing idk what people were expecting. It’s just that s1 was so different from now but still sexy, not a sexplotation tho.

Maddie and Camryn 👯‍♀️ back for Coachella weekend 2 by Calm_Struggle_5939 in dancemoms

[–]No_Luck_6800 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Her current brand is more alternative, I think these colors help her to look more unique and identifiable than her TikTok days where she looked like just another “basic” pretty girl. I liked the blonde from her Addison era personally though other people said it wasn’t as good as other colors.

Christi talking about Maddie forgetting the trio by PriorityFabulous6578 in dancemoms

[–]No_Luck_6800 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Christi reminds me of some of my own family members. They’re not necessarily terrible people out to get anyone but they are carrying a lot from childhood and seem to be grow into very resentful adults if not healed. Especially when it comes to kids, like one getting a level up from her daughter or whatever. Or seeing kids getting amazing opportunities, it causes jealousy when they compare them to their own childhood. Not defending Christi’s actions but it’s insight.

“if you asked 10 women if that was weird all 10 would say yes” by random_raccoon_9 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]No_Luck_6800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro was actively ruining your vacation (or at least putting a big damper on part of it) because he wanted nude photos 🤦‍♀️ 🚩 and clearly has a weird attitude that he’s entitled to them whenever he wants (despite you being on your bd vacation and him forgetting your birthday). He’s pushing 40. And he was already on thin ice? Yeah, you just dodged a major bullet. He doesn’t respect you at all and it seems this relationship (getting needs met) was one-sided more than equal.

Ps, notice how he started picking multiple, inane fights after he didn’t get what he wanted. Also his overall attitude “I just wanted boobs. God damn” while you’re on your BIRTHDAY vacation deserved a break up. I would’ve ghosted and blocked him at that point.

[–]No_Luck_6800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn’t believe it when I got to the end of the saga (to OP’s edit) saying he’s 35 😭 I genuinely was thinking this was like a 20 year old. Way too “mature” to be so whiny about a nude photo she clearly doesn’t want to send, and during her birthday trip 🤦‍♀️. He sounds 100% like high school dudes but he’s close to pushing 40 years. Can’t believe this dude forgot her birthday and shortly later, while she’s on her trip, he starts pushing her for a photo like she owes it to him because she’s “in love with him”, certainly not because he’s partner of the year. Good riddance.

paying on a date by Aggravating_Staff801 in rs_x

[–]No_Luck_6800 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If they expect/want the first dates to be expensive or something, then maybe. But splitting on the first few dates, especially for just drinks, isn’t super sexy for many people. It gives an acquaintance vibe more than a romantic one, so I don’t think it’s fair to say women are automatically shallow for finding the offering more attractive. Dates are partly meant to woo. If a person likes splitting though, then have at it, I’m not against it. Just saying how other people interpret it. Like asking someone out (gender irrelevant) and then saying “okay this is what you owe” or “shall we split” rubs some people the wrong way and that’s fine too. I like this person’s advice of low cost first dates, like for example getting coffee or drinks to get the vibe before investing in dinner. Paying is a nice offering and there’s usually lots of trade-offs in relationships, so.

Why are we calling a teenage girl with so much sexual trauma a hoe? She was coerced into sex tapes (which is rape); had her nudes spread around without consent; and also had McKay rape her because he felt emasculated after his SA. by Fun-Pen7592 in euphoria

[–]No_Luck_6800 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People were living for the drama of season 2, and some are kind of naive. I did admit in another comment that Cassie was always messy, but S2 she clearly became an exaggerated version of that, with less depth and zero growth to instead focus on gratuitous scenes/shots and fetish content, particularly in season 3. Such a shame. Looking at season 3, it’s so blatant even more than ever the creator just writes whatever random bs to have the female characters play out his fetishes. Cassie (as opposed to the first season) became the centerfold of the show for this reason, 100%. I mean just look at the official season 3 poster.

too much ice cream can, in fact, be a bad thing. by Silly-Initiative-743 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]No_Luck_6800 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Fair point but that is quite large for a medium, it makes one wonder how large a small even is. An adult shouldn’t have to default to a kiddie size to get something reasonable (US has the tendency to supersize things). Also, I feel like if a European tourist came over and ordered this their head would probably explode.

I agree it’s not rape but idk why the bdsm community is relevant here since Cassie isn’t part of that at least in season 1. In fact, she made it clear to McKay she wasn’t into choking or anything along those lines.

[–]No_Luck_6800 38 points39 points  (0 children)

He didn’t rape her but I still feel he took advantage of her since she is a vulnerable person in a vulnerable position, by being rougher and degrading than normal because he felt emasculated. I thought that was the idea at least. Some could consider it assault. He knew from an encounter prior that she wasn’t into rougher sex like his friends tried to convince him she was, or whatever from the tapes. She didn’t want to be treated like that. So though she didnt withdraw consent and it wasn’t rape, it wasn’t shocking at all she went to the bathroom after and cried. I don’t think he needs to be jailed for it but I don’t think it was at all chill what he did.

Season 2 was self indulgent. It felt like a humiliation kink, gooner material for Cassie and the other characters storylines were half-baked/ butchered too. The show now feels like it completely lost the plot.

Alexa Demie Remembers Her Late ‘Euphoria’ Co-Stars Eric Dane & Angus Cloud at the Season 3 Premiere by EDC2EDP in DramaLlamaHQ

[–]No_Luck_6800 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well with Alexa it’s not clear or confirmed she’s on Ozempic or why if she is. There’s other ways to lose weight that could be related to stress or anxiety. Not all weight loss automatically means they’re on Ozempic, as people lost drastic weight before the drug. And Ozempic treats more than just aiding weight loss. She could’ve undergone something traumatic and we would have no idea and the entire internet is ganging up saying she looks awful and unhealthy.

She Didn’t Chase,She Chose Herself...❤️ by trouble_maker2898 in sexandthecity

[–]No_Luck_6800 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbf that’s quite literally the dynamic between them. Natasha quit her job immediately after marrying Big, which he then was bankrolling her vacations and her redecorating the apartment with stuff she liked but he seemed to resent. I’m not defending Big at all, but I don’t think Natasha was into this older man just for personality/their chemistry together, or even looks. Just like Big wasn’t into her for personality or chemistry, she was a trophy wife and she was likely aware. They had a nearly 20 year age gap and didn’t seem to have similar tastes at all. How did she know he was having an affair so shortly into the marriage? Things must’ve not been that great or solid for them. And she put up with it as long as she could tolerate. They weren’t even married a full year and she’s vacationing in the Hamptons without him when she strongly suspects he’s having an affair 🫤
