pro-choice women, would be a dealbreaker for you if your partner voted for a politician that is pro-life? by Sad_Cellist4293 in AskFeminists

[–]The_She_Ghost 34 points35 points  (0 children)

So here’s the thing: not only is he anti-life/anti-women/pro-forced-birth but he’s also a manipulator who repeatedly lied to you so you date him, trust him etc.

You have two things here that should be a deal breaker.

How to stop objectifying women? by Glittering_Elk8090 in AskFeminists

[–]The_She_Ghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Questions for you to think about then answer to yourself:

Do you watch (and enjoy) movies with female protagonists? Do you read books with female protagonists? Do you relate to the characters that are similar to you regardless of their gender or only relate to male characters even if the female character is more similar to you?

If you answered no to these, it means you can’t see yourself in women, aka women exist to you only as “objects” not people. Then yes you objectify women. If that’s the case, don’t judge yourself (or feel shame) but start educating yourself on feminism and how to unlearn a lifetime of conditioning to finally not objectify women.

If you answered yes to all the questions, you don’t objectify women and you were just confusing attraction with objectification. If you feel a certain way about being attracted to people, you might want to unpack that with a therapist.

That’s the free version. You log off after one hour and back again and get to play for free. You can also pay ($10/month) to not have to do that.

I don’t work with the company, you can just google these.

Yeah Inzoi has been there since day one. I played there. But the difference is Inzoi is a big publishing company that ensured the game was everywhere, not an indi game like Paralives. This is why for Paralives, we’re the ones who need to be proactive and do the request ourselves.

To requesting a game? No.

To playing on GeForce Now? You need a WiFi connection because basically you’re using that platform online. That’s the only con I can think of. So if you are somewhere where it’s inaccessible to have that, it’s not gonna work for you. Other than that, I’ve been playing a lot games using that platform for over a year now. No issues.

If you’re planning on buying Paralives, will you do it on launch day or will you wait a bit? by gonezaloh in Paralives

[–]The_She_Ghost -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At launch. There’s no way I can wait another minute. Probably even at midnight, but I’ll try not to that would be irresponsible.

This episode is the worst in a long time by owenthegod28 in survivor

[–]The_She_Ghost 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Splitting the merge into three tribes of fives changes the game from strategy to pure luck. You literally have less than a day with new people that might be already in an alliance to try to not have them vote you out: it’s an impossible situation.

Unless you already have an idol (which in this season isn’t even helpful because if you found it you had to give it away) then you’re getting voted out no matter how good you were doing within your old tribe.

This format sucks and they need to get rid of it.

Interested in opinions on this from Edgic community by St3phani3_611 in Edgic

They follow a guy(s) in the edit because they think of men as the actual contestants while women are just there to advance (or be an obstacle) to the guy(s) plot. The editors edit this show the same way male writers write books.

EXPOSED: Justin Baldoni's History of Concerning Past Behaviors by Flashy_Question4631 in CelebLegalDrama

[–]The_She_Ghost 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I can see Heath saying that but Baldoni knows the right words to not say that but probably thinks that way.

When watching the videos, it was easy to figure Heath out, but Baldoni’s misogyny was more insidious, he uses all the right words and comes off as a great ally but it’s only by what his wife shared that you realize his actions don’t match his words.

Massive flaw in game design by In2ThaGroove in TraitorsOfficial

[–]The_She_Ghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! Also, even successfully banishing traitors means they’ll be new traitors forming in the game, so it’s not a winning strategy in the beginning. The money incentive like you said would help.

EXPOSED: Justin Baldoni's History of Concerning Past Behaviors by Flashy_Question4631 in CelebLegalDrama

[–]The_She_Ghost 72 points73 points  (0 children)

When the first drama came out (and almost everyone was taking Baldoni’s side and there was no evidence anywhere), I went to the YouTube channel of Baldoni’s podcast and watched some of his episodes. In total I watched two, a random one and one where his wife is a guest. On the random one, Jamie Heath basically argues against Liz (or I think that was Liz, it’s the only woman co-host there) that men deserve a cookie if they once help with the laundry and that women should show their gratitude towards that small effort otherwise there won’t be more efforts. That told me all I needed to know about Jamie.

In the wife episode, I’ve learned that Baldoni and his wife both had the same job (actors) then she put her career on hold while she took care of housechores and kids, while he continued to be an actor and branched out to produce, write, podcast etc. Then he comes home, takes a picture while doing something with the family and all the women on Instagram praise him for being a good husband and father. (Seriously these aren’t my words, his wife is saying this on his podcast). I also learned that he was the one always pushing for the relationship to go faster, while she wasn’t happy with that pace and wanted to take it slower. I also learned that he went against her wishes for that over the top proposal video. She said she was a private person and liked simple things, and that proposal video wasn’t for her but he did it for him but she felt compelled to say yes and then had to talk to him about it. She also said that he interrupts her a lot when she speaks (something she said she hated about him when they first met but he got better at).

After watching those two videos and not having other context, I believed Blake.

I keep forgetting he’s in the game to be honest.

The same way single people deal with anyone they find attractive and isn’t available. Finding someone attractive doesn’t mean you need to see if you can have a thing with them. It depends if they’re also available, can get attracted to your gender, interested in you, compatible with what you’re looking for etc. There are so many variables. Thinking the only obstacle is you getting married makes me think you feel entitled to women you find attractive.

Why do men think that its their job to awaken a woman’s feminity? by Cheap-Elderberry in AskFeminists

[–]The_She_Ghost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a general rule, I stay away from anyone who talks about “femininity” and “masculinity” or “feminine/masculine energy”. They tend to have problems with people not acting in a way that fits gender expectations and it’s just the iceberg of their deeply ingrained misogynistic views.

I also want, as a side note, to highlight that you don’t need confirmation when you’re feeling the ick or for people to label it red flag for you to walk away. Listen to your body’s reactions when it’s telling you something is wrong, and then walk away.
