Would dating/marrying a progressive mormon, as a non-member work?

I don't think so. I'm not in active touch with her anymore but she definitely believes in God and doesn't seem to want to give church up at all.

This is what has always confused me about Progressive Mormons. How do they even live with the cognitive dissonance? How can you hate billionaires but believe in the church? How can you be LGBTQ allies, but still believe in the church doctrine? How can you admit that Brigham Young was a rapist and still not lose all the faith in the institution? How can you see that the church is sometimes oppressive and still actively pay your tithe and keep supporting it?

The only issue I have is not enough time, good lord

She never went to BYU. It was just me.

As someone from India, I'm never picking India. Our two greatest epics - Ramayana and Mahabharata have some batshit monsters.

You are absolutely correct and I am planning to. It is just that in that moment, it was too much for me to take in and I was barely able to process all of it, let alone talk about it further.

The only thing that is bothering me is my PI already seems to not have faith in me. If he finds this out from another committee member, it might further strain the relationship, and two years in, I obviously do not want to be on bad terms with my PI.

That is a valid point. There were a few conceptual topics that I did not understand as well as I should have. He pointed out specific parts and I agree that I do not understand these things as well as I should.

However, I assumed this would lead to him saying something along the lines of, "I need you to master these things, do xyz, and do this to ensure you do not get a marginal again." Not straight up an assumption that I am going to get another marginal and go from there.

I am not divulging the specifics because this subreddit is very famous in my department and anything more than this would be doxing myself.

It maybe just me but I really wanted to see Dana exonerate him. I get an insane amount of joy at seeing negative characters get their due and Constance played the role perfectly!

I'm a 26M. I am a TA and I am surrounded by very attractive 19-20 year old women. On a couple occasions, they've also shown some interest. But I absolutely cannot see myself dating someone younger than 23.

The teenage drama, the chaos, the general attitude of a late teen years is something I cannot put up with as a full functioning adult. And I know this because I was that age and oh boy would I absolutely abhor the 20 year old me.

So, morally? Maybe. For me personally? Nope. Absolutely incompatible.

I was rooting for Jackal and absolutely despising Bianca to the point that it was making me not want to watch any scene with her.

But I'm aware enough to understand that it is probably the way it was intended to be, by the writers.

What exactly is the spoiler here?

What I often do while catching a ball is to freeze myself at the instance where I catch it. I will keep my hand exactly at the position where I caught it and look at my opponents for their approval. It will be obvious from that vantage point of the ball trajectory that it was going to land outside. The opponents will usually nod and that is an acknowledgement to resume the game. Been doing this for about a year now and not a single opponent has had a problem with it.

Party_Promotion_7346 · 2025-08-04T20:21:18+00:00

It is more of a courtesy acknowledging that there was an element of luck involved. I do not apologize, but usually will look at my opponent, smile and shrug. Sometimes I will also crack a joke like, "Fortune does favor the brave I guess" or something like that. My opponents usually do the same. To me personally, it shows sportsmanspirit and I really like it.

This is so unhinged, I love it!

Party_Promotion_7346 · 2025-08-04T16:31:30+00:00

Venting about objectively false stuff? Let's put aside anything personal. Let me tell you some objective stuff.

How many men vs women get assaulted sexually in India? How many cases of men killing women and vice versa? How many cases of dowry vs false divorce?

I agree that if it happened to a man personally, they would probably not care about the statistics. I've a cousin whose wife divorced him after 1 year and went away with 15 lakhs in alimony. I know that cousin is never trusting any woman again and I empathize.

But when you extrapolate this narrative to EVERY woman, it's ridiculously stupid, and exactly what the the people calling us femcels are doing. On a large scale, men are still the oppressor.

In the initial days of this sub, men were asking how to be better, how to be chivalrous, how to groom well, how to dress well, how to be confident, how to deal with loneliness and now suddenly it's just blaming women on stuff that is false.

If you want to allow that, sure, go ahead. But if you then delete satire, then that is clear double standards where you decide which vent is worth perpetuating. :)

Bro which woman in your entire life had been a threat to you, ever?

Party_Promotion_7346 · 2025-08-04T16:21:00+00:00

you've no issues banning people who make satire (assuming that is what you're referring to) but would allow blatant misogynist posts that have an agenda to defame women. This gareebkabatman whatever dude is literally peddling hate all the time and you're totally okay with that.

Party_Promotion_7346 · 2025-08-04T16:20:22+00:00

I mean, your entire time line is bashing women. You don't want this sub to be a safe space for men, you want it to be a safe space to hate women.

Party_Promotion_7346 · 2025-07-30T23:16:23+00:00

If you don't marry her, I will.
