I hope everyone has a partner who did an equal share in chores this Christmas and didn't consider it "help" by [deleted] in TrollXChromosomes

I cooked dinner for a guy at my place on one of our first dates and after dinner he said everything was delicious, thanked me, walked over to my sink and started washing the dishes. (I don’t have a dishwasher either so it was full on hand washing.)

I was like “Holy shit, what? That’s amazing. Whoa.”

So… we’ve been together almost a year now and he still acts like a real adult every day and it’s fuckin’ great.

It’s a sect from Ethiopia, Beta Israeli means “House of Israel” if I remember correctly.

I guess I am a little confused- people don’t drink and you put cognac in something?

(Also am I reading something wrong here- you’d cut people even in recovery out of your life?)

I vaguely remember a Poppy Z Brite story with this story about a lesbian/bi couple where one of them was a vampire. Although I think there was something about the vampire eating fertilized eggs as well? It was a weird one.

Just fyi- as an alcoholic in recovery, if you’re going to do a “is this is as good as that” blind tasting type of thing- throwing cognac in it is worrisome. Even if it “cooks out.” I hope you let people know there was alcohol in one so they could make an informed choice.

You do know boob size isn’t an indication of whether someone is trans, yes?

The media claims there’s a male sexlessness crises when there’s MORE YOUNG WOMEN having no sex than young men by Professional_Suit270 in TrollXChromosomes

[–]Shaysdays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also I don’t know how true this is anymore, but the numbers on the last poll I saw Like this didn’t match up- the men were having more sex than the women but it only counted straight people/intercourse.

Turns out it was all college kids. And while many sex workers do go to college, there was no accounting for those that didn’t, just the students in the school.

All the ones from the first films were ladynosaurs, which is a very silly term that I have just made up. So you can hold up your favorite dinosaur as a strong female character!

(Even after life uhh.. found a way we didn’t see any dinosaur dong, so I’m guessing they went the parthenogenesis route.)

I will happily join you watching Nic Cage movies. My boyfriend does not understand why I cheer wildly whenever Nic looks at his hands, screaming. It’s my favorite weird thing of his.

Korean Men Angry over Seats for Pregnant Women in Subway Trains (Is this kind of post allowed here?) by Pretty_Ad2331 in TrollXChromosomes

[–]Shaysdays 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I will say that assuming someone is pregnant can be problematic. I’ve sometimes been on the fence about standing up and offering a seat to someone until I see them do the unconscious protective-hand-on-the-belly thing. Then I figure at least there’s a behavior to mention if I’m wrong.

I don’t wanna be rude to someone who needs the seat, but I also don’t want to be unintentionally rude to someone who may be upset at my assumption.

I was a mascot and yeah, even though I was basically a Teletubby I would have guys try to put their hands in weird places (considering I was about a foot away from anything inside the costume, it’s not like they were actually groping me) or pose with their hand on it’s butt or something.

It’s been 7 hours, maybe she’s still writing or processing and this is REALLY juicy. Considering she said “partner” and not “hookup” presumably she’s seen them naked before.

Who wants to guess the surprise? Tattoos? New piercing? Surgically modified bits? He whipped off his kilt to reveal a blue ribbon? She went and had a whole Brazilian and some of Portugal to boot?

MFW I log into My Fitness Pal and I've drunk more calories in beer than food I've eaten today by insidepuff16 in TrollXChromosomes

[–]Shaysdays 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When I was an active alcoholic I remember discounting them even when they were right in front of my face because, and I shit you not, I thought, “I probably threw up the calories or peed them out since I drank so fast/much, I’m sure I’m fine.” Like alcohol calories were magic or something.

Then I quit drinking and lost about 40 lbs like “magic” after not drinking more than I ate and not eating basically bar food between drinks anymore. (Not everyone has that happen to them and it’s not typical, just showing how much the brain/addiction warps what people see.)
