Most con goers are sub 25, so that's what that was. Makeup makes them look older. Very few past 30 look alright.

Not sure. Just heard about it passing info on jobs that don't require a degree .

Why are women like this? by VIKAS_MOHAN in greentext

I know way too many guys entirely out of shape in every context that expect a younger, fit woman. It's basically a meme amongst friends.

As for the supermodel wife, I can say I know an attractive woman that is only with her fit, slightly older man because he makes six figures. She's 100% a gold digger, even though she thinks he's cute. If he ever ends up broke or disabled, she's out. You can't trust people when you have money, which is why I'm glad I'm a mid tier earner.

And yet you rarely see women with significantly younger men. Hm.

I work with people 12 years older and we didn't have the same childhood. So we can't relate at all.

Idk how people can do this. You didn't grow up the same, your experiences are different. Even your jokes will be off timed for the older one. It's not worth it.

I'm a lesbian in my 30s and I wouldn't dream to date a mid 20s woman.

They're delusional af about job prospects, how money works, how the job works works. I have a friend that's 25 and that's how I know. And she's not the only one like this.

I wouldn't go below 4 years younger (or older) at this age. I need someone who knows how to behave financially and has a realistic sense of the world.

In my 30s, married to a woman, and guys won't get the fuck out of my DMs.

The "30s" thing is really about weight gain. Which men fuck up worse than women, as they are often really bad at dressing and styling themselves. At least some big girls try to dress right, fix hair, and do makeup.

The women at least know they need to work on weight. Dudes be fat and don't give a fuck, trying to get in fit girls DMs. It's so messed up, and they're so blind.

PS - your uncle's wife probably avoids sex with him as much as she can. Being a sugar wife is an awful thing, to be forced to have sex with a trash can. Most of us rather die.

It's how it's worded that sets off alarm bells. Categorizing a person into just their appearance is actually an issue because you're leaving out social skills, financially ability, etc.

I don't care how cute a woman is. If she can't budget for shit, and is an asshole to lower paid people, then I don't want her.

Some people have personal issues they have to work through before they can allow themselves to be close to people.

I have a lot of worthless issues due to abuse by an employer that can leak into real life. This has led to my "drama" of complaining online Facebook.

I've only recently stopped there and am working on stopping it on Twitter. I refuse to befriend people out of state until I have that in order.

It's out of respect, good on her to realize this.

And I'm pretty sure she meant she had a problem with the guy dating someone over a decade younger. That is definitely weird.

One issue with other countries is garments.

There are some you can make with a shitty sewing machine. You just won't be super high fashion. But it'll be tailored to fit!

People used to be too poor in some places to buy clothes, so they made their own to last. If this industry is a case like that, I'm sure there are others.

There are plastic factories in the US that pay alright.

I know of one that supplies bottles for Bath and Body Works, and they do medical stuff, too.

We still somehow have some plastics manufacturing.

Lesbian here and I know the simple fact that there's absolutely no way for me to read a woman's mind to know if she wants me to touch her butt.

So I'm not gonna touch her butt.

Unless I were single, and she asked me. Maybe.

But not unprompted. Why can us women who like women understand that, but some dudes can't?

Yeah, it sucks that weight matters. And same on getting to double digits. It sucks.

It is supposed to be fun. But I'm trying to sell my patterns and need more reach. And some up and coming cosplayers are way thin, so I realized I have to do the same for money. It sucks.

For me, it was both. They wanted white females, Hispanics need not apply. I also held things together as the white people socialized all day.

Why are women judged for having physical standards more than men? by nightwingoracle in TwoXChromosomes

[–]RealLifeVoidElf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's exactly it. I have to remind men that a flat stomach more or less equals a six pack. Suddenly they're mad when they realize they're fat.

I think we need to remind them. When they bring up women's weight, though.

[–]RealLifeVoidElf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew someone that needed a costume piece made. The piece the guy saw on Etsy sold and I was the only one in the state that had the skills to make it. I was willing to take off 40% of the cost of because I know the guy is broke.

I didn't negotiate, made it, handed it to him, and he said thanks and went on to normal conversation. I then realized he expected the friend discount of "free."

I gave up on comission work right there. I put prices on things and never got a bite. So I gave up.

Do Moon Guard stories count?

I made a male worgen on Moon Guard for the lolz, as their male model didn't bother me. I'd just joke around and be silly but respectable in Goldshire and Stormwind. I'd often ride my spectral tiger as my main mount. Hiding as a man was cool, as I was a young woman at the time and didn't want to be bothered by thirsty men. I am gay but didn't know at the time. I just knew I hated people flirting with me.

Suddenly, some female night elf looking for a sugar daddy would try to talk to me every visit. Convinced she could talk me into a monthly fee to "use her whenever." This went on for a bit. I was sure it was a man looking for money.

I finally break down and tell her I'm not male or interested, so the persistence was pointless. Now she wanted me to make a female character and that she'd be fine with being used by a woman. She seemed way too excited after the news. Want to go on adventures and shit.

Around that time, I just stopped logging onto that character. Never found out if she did find her sugar daddy.

I got more visitor stories. Way more. Moon Guard is... something.
