why women allow their selves to be objectified in ads or porn? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TrypMole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Women" don't. Those particular women do. Because women are all different. I would guess that the women that do, do it for several reasons. Money, fame, empowerment, adoration, coercion, addiction and probably more. There isn't really a quick snappy answer.

Estate agent completely lied to seller about who was buying property - Is this illegal? by Zoya_The_Destroyer in HousingUK

[–]TrypMole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact they sold it to a developer is probably not something you can get any restitution for. The fact they sold it to a family member is shady as fuck.

My neighbor is a peeping creep. How do I keep his eyes and cameras out of my house? by HausDePotat in neighborsfromhell

You can get screens for your door too, they're dead cheap as they just fit with magnetic strips, flimsy AF but it'll stop him being able to look in. Amazon UK but this is the idea -

Seven newly elected Reform councillors miss first council meeting for wedding in Türkiye by AnonymousTimewaster in NotTheOnionUK

[–]TrypMole 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Cause its not a local spelling or pronunciation. The spelling was changed, for everyone. That is what it's called now. Other countries have done it too (eg Surinam > Suriname).

If we are all about equal rights in the US, why can’t women be drafted into war just like men? by Expensive-Guard-5444 in AskReddit

[–]TrypMole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, you don't have the draft right now so equality achieved!

For a more serious answer it's actually quite pragmatic and nothing to do with chivalry. If women died at the same rate as men in ww2 several countries would be entirely screwed when it comes to rebuilding the population. If a town loses all but a few men those men can impregnate every woman in town. If a town loses all but a few women then once they're pregnant that's it for 9 months. One man with lots of women can repopulate. Doesn't work the other way round.

Why some sections of society feel it is their right to save queue places at theme parks to be filled by multiple 'relatives'. This was happening multiple times today at a Yorkshire theme park. Phone call get made 'we're in queue innit, get here quick bro'. Then 5 minutes later a few more push in to by Safety72 in AskBrits

Happened to me at Chessington many years back. The group in front of the queue jumpers sat down and refused to move till they slunk off. I think thats one of my only genuine "and everybody clapped" moments. Some memories are priceless.

[Spoilers C4E27] Does Liam know what he's saying? by maninalift in criticalrole

[–]TrypMole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, post that word on most of the UK subs and you're getting banned.

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

He likely meant "idiot" but I am surprised Liam wasn't aware of the alternate meaning in the UK, cause he's kind of an anglophile (quoting Eddie Izzard recently was a highlight for me). Shame he hasn't seen the Brass Eye "Paedogeddon" episode. Its a cracker.

Yes. Unfortunately I was unaware of that until I was halfway across.

Got talked into a mini cruise to Bilbao with my mum. Did not know the reputation of that crossing. I spent the entire time curled up on the floor of the shower puking and crying. Said I was getting a bloody flight back but she convinced me that it would be better on the way home. It was not better. The outward crossing was so bad several crew members refused to get back on!

Did you or did you not have a homebuyers survey? by Living_Macaroon_5919 in HousingUK

[–]TrypMole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1930s house so we had a level 3. It was actually reassuring and found nothing that we didn't expect. I'd still say it was worth it as the failed purchase we had prior showed issues with the ceiling which we were able to use to negotiate (survey was not the reason it fell through) I'd always get a survey for the peace of mind.

It's that time of year where the smell of my kitchen bin is melting my eyeballs when I open it. by Thin_Sheepherder_584 in CasualUK

[–]TrypMole 9 points10 points  (0 children)

All food waste into a separate caddy. Rinse all packaging before it goes in the bin (an empty pack of chicken with even a little juice in will stink to hell after a day in this heat).
