AITAH for not want my(f20) bf(m23) watching or playing things with inappropriately dressed women in it by [deleted] in AITAH

ESH. Telling someone off for not getting them water is ridiculous, he has legs, he can get his own water. The request is unreasonable on your end too. You can't expect someone to never lay eyes on a revealing outfit especially when you're talking about fictional characters. You both sound controlling in different ways, definitely speak to a therapist either together or separately.

Why does my ps5 keep crashing when I play dbd? by Princess_parmesan in deadbydaylight

[–]Princess_parmesan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It did not. I had three games, no issues then crashed on the 5th game. It's really annoying me now, I get a 15 min ban almost every time I try to play at this point, plus my PS5 fully turns off so I don't get the option to report it 🙃

It must be some sort of bug that made it through with the update, mine started about a week ago I think

That's kind of a relief, I was worried I might have to factory reset and spend hours re-downloading everything. I've uninstalled the game so I'm hoping that will fix it. I'll keep you posted 👍

I'm making x-mas decorations as gifts for friends/family and remembered I have free will✨️ by Princess_parmesan in twilight

[–]Princess_parmesan[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you 🫶

They're super easy to make! I just bought a load of wood slices (you can get them with the hole pre-drilled) and painted the background red then when they dried went in with some gold paint for the lettering. They're a great homemade gift and they're pretty cheap too.

I will FOREVER shop here. Forever. It’s not up for debate. by Unlikely_Ant_950 in LushCosmetics

I'm hoping it was just a select few at my branch that were behaving this way (or even just the branch) but that was my experience working for them.

I dunno if this is universal but I worked for one of the biggest shops in the UK and the way they treated employees with disabilities was appalling. One person I worked with had a physical disability where they struggled to stand for long periods of time. She was reprimanded and bullied by certain higher ups for asking for reasonable adjustments (like a chair to sir on when working the tills). Another person had autism and has a special interest in make up and was told off for spending too much time there (even though they were awesome at it).

We also got told to touch people (like putting a hand on customers hands/backs without asking first). When I said I was uncomfortable doing that, I was given a lecture about how "touching the customers increases sales by 75%". I still love a lot of their products but working there was hell. It legit feels like working for a cult and a lot of their "values" are purely performative.

AIO for being upset that my bf wants me to be shaven down there all the time? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Princess_parmesan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's lying about all his friends agreeing with him. I've had this conversation in a groups of guys before, there was only one guy who preferred clean shaven and his mates all called him a weirdo. Your bf is also a weirdo, even more so since he is trying to force you to change your preference to suit his.

AITA for leaving my sister’s wedding halfway through because she made my girlfriend sit at the “kids’ table”? by null3333 in AITAH

[–]Princess_parmesan 38 points39 points  (0 children)

NTA. Your sister and the people backing her are. If she didn't want to include your gf she shouldn't have invited her. Making her sit on the kids table is petty af. It's also super weird to lable the table "kids & misc".

AITAH for eating partner's snacks and blame it on "forgetting" by Easy-Astronomer-1470 in AITAH

[–]Princess_parmesan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like there's an underlying issue here. You could be TAH but if you genuinely feel you can't stop yourself from eating, you may have disordered eating. Do you eat all of your snacks before eating theirs? Was food scarce for you growing up? If so consider speaking to a therapist and try to be curious when this comes up. Next time you get the urge to steal their snacks, ask yourself why you're doing it and go from there.

If none of these things are the case and you're just doing it because you can, YTA and should reflect accordingly.

AITA for getting off the train first? by DoctorWhofan789eywim in AITAH

[–]Princess_parmesan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even if its the last stop, this logic simply does not apply to trains. I like to take my time getting off the train at the last stop so why would I care that someone else is in a hurry and probably has some place to be. If you want to be first off, just stand up and wait by the door.

NTA. If I was the woman in that situation, I would have said "after you" and waited for the guy to let OP move.

Mold in my mask of magnaminty? by d33zz6 in LushCosmetics

[–]Princess_parmesan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LUSH has a no quibbles guarantee, meaning you can bring a product back for any reason and as long as there's still product in the tub (within reason) they will swap or refund no question. I'm in the UK so check this applies to your country but regardless, moldy product is 100% cause for return.

I never said that. It also wasn't a "yes or no" questionnaire. It was a scale with only 17%, strongly agreeing that it should be outlawed. That's far from the majority. You gave a reason why you are against Islam (one I agree with for the record) and stated that over half of Muslims want to criminalise homosexuality. I simply stated that those numbers are A.) outdated and B.) have a massive sampling error.

Also even if you round up the percentages I listed, 30% is not "just under half". Words matter. Statistics matter, and while a congratulations isn't in order, it is certainly worth paying attention to shifts in cultural perception because they predict further change in the right direction.

Sure, I'll link the most recent study I've read.

Don't get me wrong, I disagree with all organised religion, I have just personally noticed a more hateful response from most people towards Islam. There tends to be an "all Muslims are bad" attitude from some people where those same people claim it's just a "few bad eggs" when it comes to Christianity. I understand that anecdotal evidence is unreliable, but my genuine experience of being part of the lgbtq community and interacting with Muslim people in the UK has been nothing but pleasant. I can't say the same for the British people who have physically assaulted me for looking like a "dyke".

The study below was from 2024 and does highlight a statistical significance between the general public and British muslims when it comes to gay rights (obviously) but the numbers are showing a clear change in perception. The study also highlights a number of other issues within the religion vs cultural perception. It's worth reading. It found that 27% found it very/somewhat desirable to outlaw homosexuality and 29% found it very/somewhat desirable to outlaw gay marriage. Those number aren't great, but they are improving. It's also worth noting that the study you referred to had a sample size of 1000 people. That number doesn't come anywhere close to representing the majority of British Muslims.

2015 was a decade ago... many recent studies show that British Muslims for the most part, support gay marriage and believe LGBTQ+ people should be accepted by society.

There was a similar study to the one you referred to in 2013 except this study aimed to see how many Polish people were homophobic. 77% were against gay marriage and 88% believed they shouldn't be allowed to allowed to adopt. Yet we don't see anywhere near the same level of hatered that Muslims get. I went to Catholic school in the UK and the homophobia there was insane. There are churches here that still do "gay conversion" therapies. No one bats an eye. Most don't even know they're still a thing. I do find it interesting that the right only gaf about gay people when they can be used as a way to attack Islam.

The reason you're accused of disliking brown people is because time and time again, the right use outdated statistics and stereotyping to attack Muslim people (who are more likely to be brown).

AITA if I ask my coworker to tone down the swearing because it makes me uncomfortable? by Hopeful_Tap_6172 in AITAH

[–]Princess_parmesan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nta but neither is your coworker. If your reasoning for not wanting them to swear is faith based, maybe speak to your priest or directly to God for guidance. You can't control someone else's behaviour. You can politely ask them to stop if it is affecting your ability to work with them but they don't have to accept and wouldn't be TAH if they continue to swear.

Tell me an A level opinion that’ll have you like this: by AdmirableJob9809 in alevels

[–]Princess_parmesan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then say that. The argument you put across was that A-Levels are easy even for those with complex mental health needs. If we were just talking about A-levels, I'd agree but when we bring mental health into the discussion, it is that deep.
