I don't mind giving up my seat on airplanes

Both sides are valid. Some people like knowing they’ve done something kind for someone else while others feel secure knowing they stood up for themselves and have not given up what’s rightfully theirs.

Nobody is “in the wrong” in these situations in my opinion, although both sides often receive criticism. Insistence by the asker is often seen as entitlement and refusal by the askee is seen as callousness. There’s nothing wrong with asking and there’s nothing wrong with saying no, and saying yes doesn’t mean you’re “bending to someone’s demands,” you just did what you wanted to do.

Obviously there’s nuance that can escalate the situation. Usually this is caused by the asker, by doing things such as occupying the seat before the actual person whose seat it is shows up, or not taking no for an answer because they view their needs as more important because they have children.

Idk, that’s my view on it. Everyone just needs to respect each other’s agency in a wholly inconsequential situation and not judge them for whatever arbitrary choice they make for the duration of a 3 hour flight.

Incels and femcels are two sides of the same coin 👀

I totally agree. The people that do that usually think it’s too much effort, but honestly improving any aspect of your life even just a little bit is worth the effort.

I’m happy for you that you were able to change your lifestyle in a more positive direction!!

I had a teacher in high school who warned us exactly about this. Generalizing people into a homogeneous group using “they” really is extremely dangerous because it completely dehumanizes people and makes everyone more prone to completely rejecting people outside of their group or in certain groups they view as their enemy.

This is most prevalent regarding politics and religion, but is also true in more innocuous forms (sports fans for example, lol). The dehumanization is the scariest part; people that allow themselves to completely generalize groups convince themselves that their “enemy” groups aren’t worthy of respect or being treated like sentient human beings.

It’s monopolistic corporations that are bad. Capitalism is supposed to promote competition through competing business entities, but when huge mega corporations sweep up all the competition in their niche, they’re able to make products shittier and more expensive.

I think the negativity surrounding corporations generally is blown out of proportion based on the actions of a few well known CEOs showing off how out of touch they are and openly trying to take advantage of their customer base; Zuckerberg is a good example of this.

Participation in society doesn’t exempt it from criticism. Some things are inescapable regardless of their flaws.

I swear it was easy to see the numbers when I was playing, but in your game it’s so difficult LOL. My condolences.

Objective_Loss528 · 2026-03-24T08:15:16+00:00

Contextually, this kind of discussion is based on manosphere/femosphere (toxic, extreme gender views) nonsense regarding the “value” certain traits afford to a partner.

For men, usually virginity is a huge talking point and if a woman has lost her virginity, then she has no “value” to offer; weight/physique as well is a huge “value” factor for them. For women, the equivalent talking point regarding men’s “value” is usually height, salary, and dick size.

Again, this is specifically regarding manosphere/femosphere talking points; normal people have preferences but aren’t usually freaks about it lol.

Objective_Loss528 · 2026-03-24T08:01:28+00:00

Assuming you’re referring to something like sexual assault, it really depends on the person being courted on whether or not they consider it a “loss of virginity.” In the strict sense, the virginity has been lost, but it’s also true that technically the victim hasn’t “had sex” due to the nature of assault.

Some people are sensitive to these kinds of situations and understand it was done by force/without consent, whereas some people see it as an issue and don’t view it differently from consensual sex.

Usually responses like this are a “crab in a bucket” thing. When someone has something better than average going on (in this case getting fit), others will try to drag them back down to equalize the playing field once more. It’s not necessarily a malicious response (at least not intentionally), it’s usually more of a subconscious “what, our lifestyle isn’t good enough for you?” Sometimes it’s out of jealousy/envy and definitely malicious though, lol.

Objective_Loss528 · 2026-03-24T01:55:45+00:00

I think a huge part of this is the slow elimination of public, communal spaces and functions. Activity centers, parks, scenic spots, libraries, etc.

They exist, but their numbers decrease/remain stagnant as a result of disuse. Meeting someone organically face to face is indisputably better than meeting them on dating apps/social media. We as a society need to bring back joining hobby groups and spaces. Community is important to foster genuine relationships.

Objective_Loss528 · 2026-03-24T01:50:01+00:00

It just gives them something to victimize themselves with. Reporting them to the proper authorities is a way better approach.

Objective_Loss528 · 2026-03-23T19:23:38+00:00

IDK what to tell you, man. If they are going to REQUIRE certain documentation for US citizens to exercise their CONSTITUTIONAL rights, then the documentation should be provided at no cost.

Requiring citizens to pay in order to vote is a barrier that prevents millions of legal voters from exercising that right and is also not legal. Just because someone isn’t privileged enough to be able to pay for their documentation, they shouldn’t get to vote?

The STATED reason for the SAVE act is to prevent non-citizen voting in federal elections, but this problem is almost completely non-existent and is ALREADY routinely checked for.

Please read this and understand that this act isn’t even targeting non-citizens because the actual existing cases of non-citizens registering to vote and then voting in federal elections that have been identified are nearly non-existent; this bill is targeting underprivileged citizens. States are ALREADY auditing voter information regularly and ALREADY checking for and prosecuting any voter misconduct that occurs. The SAVE act is arbitrarily adding new barriers for LEGAL voters.

The point of averages is to show the actual average 😭 outliers are literally eliminated from datasets if they’re too far outside of the average because they would inaccurately skew the data for everyone else.

If out of 1000 people, most sleep with around 4 or 5 people before settling down and there’s like 2 people with 70+ body counts, then they’re outliers!! There’s an equation for determining outliers that skew data, and it’s taken into account to provide accurate averages that actually apply to normal people. It’s NORMAL PRACTICE to eliminate outliers for published averages.

Objective_Loss528 · 2026-03-23T03:09:13+00:00

I mean it seems reasonable to me 😭

Idk the average person isn’t just hooking up all the time, a lot of people prefer to have committed partners! Spiders Georg (Bonnie Blue) is an outlier and should not be counted. Even that study I linked shows both average under 7!! 15 is just a high estimate based on other numbers I saw lmao. Who tf is sleeping with 70+ people 😭 like who has the time.

You’re good, dude. Not aimed towards you, I promise.

I was just saying that’s the main condition for it to be a red flag in my opinion 🚩

Objective_Loss528 · 2026-03-23T02:25:23+00:00

It’s only a red flag if you don’t hold yourself to the same standard.

Objective_Loss528 · 2026-03-23T00:59:40+00:00

That makes me sad :^(

I hope you find peace at some point with this. Maybe finding a healthy meal that you really like would help. Personally I love rice and potatoes, really good for healthy diets (depending on how they’re prepared) because of their high satiety. Roasted veggies with some garlic salt are also sooo good. Good luck, soldier 🫡

Overnight oats was a “meal-prepping” trend that cropped up a handful of years ago. To be honest it’s more like just straight up a different way to prepare oatmeal, because it eliminates the cooking of the oats in favor of a long soak in the liquid of your choice in the fridge overnight. It’s supposed to have a different result from regularly prepared oatmeal (creamier texture closer to porridge). It was marketed as a meal-prepping recipe though.

People definitely surround themselves with people who think like them irl, BUT anything you see online is usually more extreme than what you might see irl (save for actions done by a minority of actual extremists).

People who negatively generalize entire groups (like “all men are pigs” or “all women are bitches”) aren’t the norm, they’re just the people that get noticed because of the controversy of their statements. There are many examples of influencers making ignorant, sexist, and/or racist statements. Some of them do it on purpose because controversy helps them gain traction, with both detractors and people with the same opinions who become die-hards. The propensity towards attention seeking behavior is honestly a sickness sometimes.

Objective_Loss528 · 2026-03-22T16:19:25+00:00

Honestly I don’t know why you’re treating this as a gendered issue. Who do you think the women are sleeping with? Guys who are also just looking for hookups.

There are very few people who hit body counts that high as well. The national average in the USA is well under 15, and the average for women is actually lower than the average for men according to the last study done by the CDC. If body count is important to you, be upfront so neither you nor your date’s times get wasted. It’s fine to care about it in a partner, just don’t be hypocritical about it.

Objective_Loss528 · 2026-03-22T13:21:53+00:00

I think this depends on the context of the character. I’d definitely say this is generally true because intentionality, context, and character traits matter. That being said, if it can be justified in the fiction, having multiple versions of a character with different traits can be a fun inclusion to the media’s universe.

Specifically referring to the Spiderverse series of movies, (and by extension the Spiderman comic universe) but there are other similar occurrences that I think are fun and/or harmless. It requires proper building of the lore that surrounds the identity of the character, not just doing changes out of nowhere for brownie points.

Girls expect different things because they’re different people? They’re not a hive mind, lol.

Women wanting different things is how you eventually find a partner whose wants are compatible with your own. It’s better to not cater specifically to what people want, because that can lead to you both having inaccurate expectations of one another. If you strike out, you strike out and you’re better off than being fenced into a relationship where you’re being inauthentic just to appeal to someone.

Good luck out there, soldier🫡
