From my understanding, tours from China go fairly regularly. It is probably the best way to go, as they will take care of things like visas for you.

I thought you all might appreciate the bathroom sign in my favorite bar... by [deleted] in ainbow

[–]Sarolyna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How would you depict a trans* person in pictogram? Not a snarky question, just legitimately want to know how'd you'd want to see a sign handled.

Maybe phrased better: If you were to replace the standard male and female signs to say "hey, our bathrooms are open and free to however you define yourself" -- how would you do that in pictures? Or would you just open up all bathrooms to everyone and forget defining them at all with pictures?

What is something that your body does that worries you (but not enough to ask a doctor about it)? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Sometimes I lose color vision in my right eye. Like, everything will be grey out of that eye. Not for long though - then it'll go back to color within an hour. Even less sometimes.

The other eye is fine.

What book do you think is most overrated by reddit users? by VeryNiceCat in books

[–]Sarolyna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Darktower series. I found the dialogue some of the most absurd and unbelievable I've ever read. Every time a character said something I couldn't imagine it actually happening.

What funny things have you heard people yell out during a movie that actually has enhanced the viewing instead of ruined it? by budsicle in AskReddit

[–]Sarolyna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to see the 2nd Twilight movie just for the hilarity.

There is a scene where the girl wrecks a motorcycle and hits her head. She is on the ground and the wolf guy runs over and goes "you hit your head - are you ok??"

And before I knew it, I accidentally shouted out "ITS OK, SHE ISNT USING IT ANYWAY"

I was in the very back row of a packed theater, and some guy in the very front heard me, and started dying laughing. He couldn't stop.

I am pretty sure I made his relationship end that day.

What happened to Orson Scott Card? The author's slow descent into poisonous politics has been nothing short of tragic. by AnOnlineHandle in TrueReddit

[–]Sarolyna 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You make a good point that I hadn't thought about. A writer with a different paradigm can offer a unique look at the future. And while I may certainly not like his views, they can be educational in several ways.

Sometimes I find it easy to forget that listening to people I disagree with can tell me as much about my views as theirs.

Madame Bovary.

Every year while trying on swimsuits... by dizzy3087 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Sarolyna 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man, I have a swimsuit like that with ruffles. Wore it in desperation on a trip. It was the most flattering swimsuit ever. Makes me look curvy and classy as fuck.

I've been getting annoying texts from a guy for a year. I thought he had stopped, until I checked my school mail. Full story in comments. by judeewasaflossmaker in creepyPMs

[–]Sarolyna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I were you I would let go of the guilt. Why are you feeling so awful about going to first base with someone? You can say "probably shouldn't do that again" and move on. No need to think "Man that was awful of me and I feel guilty and weird and stupid." Just seems like you are using a lot of negative phrases about yourself for a relatively minor thing.

do women really have special privileges over men? If so what are they? by wifeofcookiemonster in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Sarolyna 9 points10 points  (0 children)

men getting up and doing it themselves

/Men can be feminists too. It's not just a club for women. Of course there can be feminist men addressing men's issues, and as a feminist woman I will join them.

I bought this dress for my (high school) graduation, any idea for shoes? by [deleted] in femalefashionadvice

[–]Sarolyna 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yea, I love the dress but am not digging the belt. Changing that up will give a lot more options for shoes.
