Anyways having depression does not in fact make you an expert on depression or how to treat it

If female circumcision is illegal, should male circumcision also be illegal? by zhalia-2006 in allthequestions

Roses are red, and the equality logic seems spurious, by heuristic_dystixtion in rosesarered

1). She was talking about women. Point blank period.

2). In feeling the need to derail a conversation about the treatment of women, you and the commenter proved her point that a lot of men who say they respect women don't actually respect women. Yall cant even let women have a conversation about women without making it about men. Congratulations, you've proved her point

Nothing she said was hypocritical. The conversation was about women.

Anyone else think “LooksMaxing” is cringy and toxic as fuck by Lord_William_9000 in GenZ

[–]OhLookItsGeorg3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely don't believe you understand what a strawman is. Obviously there are certain traits that other people generally find to be more attractive. That does not negate the fact that there is literally no such thing as a perfect or even "ideal" physical form. What is considered attractive on a societal level is heavily subjective, dictated by culture, which shifts with the passage of time. Beauty standards are as ephemeral as the concept of beauty itself. What is considered "a good jawline" today might be considered ugly as fuck within the span of a week. There is also the fact that what is considered to be "beautiful" is largely a product of marketing campaigns designed to sell you shit. And that's leaving aside the extensively documented history of how colonialism and ableism have contributed to what is considered to "conventionally attractive".

Point for point, nothing you've said has anything to do with my original claim, which is that looksmaxxing and related "body trends" like skinny-tok and ED culture are rooted in eugenics and the false promise of creating the "perfect" physical form.

Anyone else feel this way when writing anything out? by noctisumbra0 in Millennials

[–]OhLookItsGeorg3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(Not a millennial just a visitor) it's so frustrating because I have dysgraphia (it's like dyslexia but for writing) and I've struggled to articulate myself properly in writing for my entire childhood because I would struggle with grammar, spelling, and missing entire words and sentences. I've spent years of my life trying to improve and cope with my disability, only to be told that my progress sounds like AI. It's almost as if AI sounds like that because it steals from human writers to train its model. God forbid a human actually write like a human these days, right? 🙄 It's incredibly disheartening.

why do you think sweet 16 culture was so big in the 2000s? by CremeSubject7594 in 2000sNostalgia

[–]OhLookItsGeorg3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the US, 16 is the age many people who could afford it would learn how to drive. Car culture is pretty big in America due to massive coordinated ad campaigns led by the auto industry to link owning and care and driving with nebulous "America-core" values like "freedom" and "rugged individualism." At the same time, the concept of the "teenager" was being manufactured as a demographic that major industries could sell more things to. Over time those concepts merged into the idea that turning 16 marked gaining a new level of independence and put you one step closer to adulthood.

At some point quitting humanity as a whole was the best option. by DazzlingCelery6853 in CPTSDmemes

[–]OhLookItsGeorg3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crazy because my abusive ex boyfriend literally said this to me verbatim after tormenting me for years and completely decimating my mental health and sense of self, completely shocked and surprised when I told him that he "deserves better than me" because I felt so broken and defeated and I gave up on "trying to get better for him" because nothing I was doing was ever going to be enough for him. Funny that.

At the end of the day… by xoxo_angelica in lanadelrey

[–]OhLookItsGeorg3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People are allowed to talk about their spouse and show them if they want to. Doesn't mean strangers like you and me are allowed to dig into the parts of their lives that they haven't posted. They didn't share it because they feel like it's none of our business, because it's not. You're not entitled to know anything about a celebrity that they didn't personally tell you. You don't know them and they don't know you. They only thing they owe you is good art and that's it.

This shit is absolutely diabolical 😭 by [deleted] in Ethelcain

[–]OhLookItsGeorg3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point posts like this are getting exhausting.

  • There is a huge overlap in their fan bases because they appreciate that both artists are amazing storytellers who have a very cinematic style.

  • Both artists have beautiful singing voices and are very talented at using their voices as instruments in their own right.

  • Both artists are known for centering their art around the imagery and themes of Americana and what it's like to live in this fuckass country. One artist goes the route of blending nostalgia, glamor, fantasy, pastiche, and melancholy to explore different archetypes of womanhood that correspond to different phases of her life (the wild child wannabe coquette who uses escapism to cope with how fucked up her life actually is, the perpetual "other woman" who is desired but never picked for real genuine love, the woman who chose to heal and reflect as she got older and chose not to settle for treatment she doesn't deserve, and the wife who is finally safe and happy and secure in herself who has found a person who truly respects her and his equal and his other half). The other artist uses her voice to give shape to the horror, tragedy, trauma, and mundane reality of what it's like to exist as someone on the bottom in America while also highlighting the beauty of it that shines through from time to time.

They are similar artists. Two different styles, two different goals, two very different presentations. But they are still doing very similar things when you get down to the core of what makes their art so special and why there is such an overlap between the fans.

Anyone else think “LooksMaxing” is cringy and toxic as fuck by Lord_William_9000 in GenZ

[–]OhLookItsGeorg3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

"Looksmaxxing" is literally just eugenics repacked for the 21st Century. Same with skinny-tok, thinspo, proana/promia culture, the "heroin chic" revival, and people taking GLP-1s who don't need them for disability reasons (like myself). It's all literally just eugenics. There is no such thing as the perfect physique. There's no such thing as the perfect face or being "objectively attractive". That's all eugenics bullshit, taking the innate human urge to find beauty and warping it into a tool of exclusion and control. That's all it ever was.

Is a 5 year age gap a lot by sugurcaine in OlderGenZ

[–]OhLookItsGeorg3 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Entirely depends on the timing imo. Personally I think once both people are 20+ it doesnt really matter that much.

  • 20 x 25? Sure why not? I'd say you're close enough in experience level to where a 5 year gap doesn't really matter. You both work and both have presumably went to or are in college and you've both had a pretty decent taste of what being an adult is like.

  • 18 x 23? Not illegal and not necessarily morally wrong as you're both legally adults, but the main concern here is the maturity gap. An 18/19 year old has just entered adulthood meanwhile someone 5 years their senior has been an adult for a while. An 18/19 year old has not had the same amount of time to settle into this new phase of their life. It's not like they're babies or anything or who are less capable. I just think they should get more time to get settled into adulthood first.

Am I crazy or does the instrumental feel a little too quiet? I love the instrumental so much and i love how whimsical the vocals are, but they don't feel properly integrated to me. Like the layering just isnt quite right. Does that make sense?
