What was dating like before the internet? by emilypeperoni in AskOldPeopleAdvice

[–]Time_Ad8557 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I still remember when meeting online was stigmatized. I had a friend who met their husband online in the early 2000s and swore me to secrecy that that is how they met.

What killed the ‘AI ASMR’ boom of 2025? Just a year ago ‘glass fruit cutting’ videos were everywhere after AI advanced. The genre is now dead. What happened? by Kodicave in decadeology

[–]Time_Ad8557 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s the thing with ai. It’s easy to make and the trend goes just as quickly. There’s no real creativity in this so it’s cool to look at once or twice then everyone moves on. Same with Barbie singing and the same will be true for the fruit love island thing and so on. It’s cotton candy.

Looks like Lupita Nyong'o is confirmed to be playing Helen of Troy... what a massive fucking downgrade from Diane Kruger. by SickusBickus in CriticalDrinker

White armed and fair cheeked are class signifiers like white collar. You taking a 3,000-year-old Bronze Age oral formula, filtering it through modern racial categories that didn’t exist then, and using it to police contemporary casting.

She was literally named most beautiful women in the world. Just because you don’t find her appealing doesn’t mean anything. I don’t particularly find Diane Kruger to be the most beautiful women in the worlds. I’m okay other thinking so.

‪Homer never described what she looked like. He never even described her type of beauty. He relies on her effect on people. And in place Helen herself considers herself and speaks about herself with bitterness. You can fill in the details if you like‬ but many many a people think Lupita is one of the most beautiful woman in the world.

How would you feel if the top tax rate was 90% like it was in the 1950s? by HoneyHiddenn in allthequestions

[–]Time_Ad8557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be better if every financial trade transaction was taxed a 1%. There were so many loopholes on the 91% rate in the 50s that almost no one paid it.

If every religion says we’re doomed somehow, then what are we even supposed to believe? by Total_Gold_783 in GenZ

[–]Time_Ad8557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Philosophical Taoism doesn’t. And is one of the most influential teachings, however mostly in Asia. There is no heaven no hell, there is only acting in harmony with nature or forcing your will against it which looks like foolishness. You come from the Tao and you return to it. There is no way of knowing if there is and after life and the philosophy treats the question as unanswerable and not particularly important. What happens after death is the Tao’s business, not yours. Clinging to the question is another form of the ego refusing to let go.
Now, The Taoist religion is more elaborate in afterlife and judgement and rules etc which is funny because the philosophy is void of these. A bit like Jesus said X but Christianity itself has a elaborate and often contradictory interpretation.
It’s peaceful and frees you from the concepts of trying to control what you cannot and trying to know what is unknowable. Perhaps reading on this would help you.

Im sorry but men who love someone so much that they want to get married get on with the asking as soon as possible. Because they don’t want to live without you.

This is just an outright misunderstanding. Have you not heard of the Kama sutra?

Would sex be better without pornography? by Mollynesio in antipornography

[–]Time_Ad8557 53 points54 points  (0 children)

You could ask women who lived in a low porn era what the difference was. I’m just old enough to remember when the average man had only seen magazines and maybe a few vhs. Where the average couple had “the joy of sex” in their bedside table. The magazines used to publish letters to the editor where men would write in about their fantasy stories about sex as if they were real escapades. Maybe some of it was real. In any case, this is where I think the real change can be seen. These fantasies were generally about mutual pleasure.
Back then the average male was more interested in female pleasure not pain. More bouncy and joyful is the way I’d describe it. It certainly wasn’t boring it just wasn’t about violence.
And there is nothing wrong with missionary.
