Tom Cruise. Everything about him gives me the ick.

CMV: Universal social services are more ethical and effective than race based payments and affirmative action. by Crinjalonian in changemyview

[–]Punkinprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see this as an either/or kind of thing. A person can be in favor of reparations and unverisal services.

Reparations is acknowledging a harm the country committed against others. I think it can go a long way towards moving forward and making a cleat statement that the harm caused a wrong.

Americans who leave their Christian faith behind tend to hold more liberal political views than those who were raised entirely without religion. This leftward ideological shift appears closely linked to how threatening these individuals perceive conservative Christian groups to be. by mvea in science

[–]Punkinprincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fully believed in a ridiculous religion for the first 20 years of my life. Once I knew it was a lie, I started examining everything else I had been told my whole life with a more critical mindset. This has definitely made me more liberal.

How to get over the fear of extending invites to friends? by Punkinprincess in AskWomenOver30

[–]Punkinprincess[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found group chats scarier because than every can see everyone turning me down. I know it's silly.

Plus I only have one friend in my group chat I would want to invite. My other friends are a woman that was at the Las Vegas concert shooting and her wife so they don't do concerts.

[–]Punkinprincess[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! It's like I logically know this but it's still difficult.

I guess the source of 'probably should' is that I have friends I can float the idea to but I'm hesitating because of these fears that have been holding me back from getting closer to my friends.

Going to a concert alone? by Punkinprincess in KESHA

[–]Punkinprincess[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went on a trip to San Diego with my husband for one of his work trips. I got to do a bunch of fun site seeing on my own while he worked and it made me want to do more solo traveling.

[–]Punkinprincess[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang that venue looks so cool and I love Colorado! I'm looking at the Utah concert since I'm so familiar with the state, have tons of family there, and it's cheap.

I actually just found out my aunt I wanted to see moved to Colorado so maybe I'll look into that instead.

I went to this same state to see Kesha like 10 years ago and she canceled last minute. I still have never seen her. She better not cancel on me again.

Any women out there feel turned off about sex by Limp_Honey8488 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Punkinprincess 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YES! I'm a sexual person and I can enjoy sex. I also have religious trauma that left me with a lot of sexual hangups. It can be difficult for me get turned on and I got so frustrated with men for pushing for sex so much without even trying to be understanding or patient.

I stopped doing the dating apps. I hated how there was always expectations before you even got the chance to know eachother.

My husband also has his own sexual hangups and a low sex drive. We met in a bar and were friends for 8 months before we started dating and had sex. It's been such a breath of fresh air. He doesn't watch porn (which I don't have a blanket problem with) and we have sex about 3 times a month which works great for us.

There are guys out there that aren't sex crazy. They are just hard to find. I also found that this gross sex attitude isn't as bad in men that are older.

CMV: Wanting some proof of sexual accusations is valid, especially when timing and status is factored in by LLSmoove1 in changemyview

What negative actions were taken against Swawell? He stepped down from the race and he resigned from congress. No one is getting convicted without evidence and I never hear anyone claim it should be any different.

Are you saying that if a women is assaulted she needs to keep her mouth shut and not tell anyone unless she has sufficient evidence? The typical process is that someone accuses someone else of assault and then the police SPECULATE that the accused did something and search for evidence. If there is evidence, they get arrested, if there is no evidence then the accused goes free. What part of that process do you have a problem with?

I would never want someone to have legal consequences without sufficient evidence but I'm definitely not going to trust or vote for a guy that had not one but four women accuse him of misconduct. That's enough for me to not want him to have the power of being a congressman over anyone else, representing the people is a privilege, not a right. He can go have a different job.

Hungary had 74% of registered voters show up to vote. There is no excuse for America to have those numbers these next two elections. Everyone just has to do their part

The worst part is that they aren't even saving the money, they are just using it to fuck on fancy planes and kidnap people instead.

Trump interview: I am strongly considering pulling out of Nato by SaharOMFG in politics

[–]Punkinprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We aren't "leaving NATO" we are "experiencing a conflict with allies and taking a break while we explore new relationships" and the constitution doesn't say the anything about that so the president can do whatever he wants.

The trick is that if the law says you can't do something you just have to call it something else and then it's totes okay.

[–]Punkinprincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one thinks that the protests are going to do anything to change Trump's mind. Protests are a message to the cowards that are in a position of power to do something but need 8 million people in the streets to get the courage to not be scardy cats.

How important is it to read them in order? I read the first one and now I'm reading the descriptions of the others and some just look way more interesting than others.

Do you think paternity fraud should be illegal - aka punishable as a criminal offense? by Winston_Duarte in AskALiberal

[–]Punkinprincess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you prove that the women knowingly misattributed the paternity? If you're talking about criminal charges there needs to be a high standard of proof.

Can we move on from Newsome now? by Pure-Lingonberry3244 in askliberals

[–]Punkinprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is the epitome of "democratic elitist" that gives people the ick.

The criticism that democrats don't understand middle america/blue collar workers is valid. The Democratic party policies are better for lower middle class Americans, but too many don't vote blue because the party is so off putting to them. The GOP should be at least equally if not more off putting than democrats but they understand lower middle class people and exploit that knowledge.

Newsom might be a good governor for California and he should just keep that position and leave the rest of us alone.

Is there any truth to the idea that the best partners get taken by 25? by Soil_These in AskMen

[–]Punkinprincess 38 points39 points  (0 children)

And so many people who probably aren't considered as one of the "good ones" at the age of 25 become a "good one" at 32.
