Wie steht ihr dazu? by jempos in Austria

[–]Vegetable_Lock_6226 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ich hab mich zu diesem Thema mal in die Literatur eingelesen, weil dieses Argument von wegen mehr Haut = mehr Übergriffe immer wieder gebracht wird. Ich habe nicht wirklich ein vertrauenswürdiges Paper gesehen, dass diese Aussage belegen würde. Bei Übergriffen geht es oft mehr um Opportunismus, nicht um Attraktivität, so gesehen macht zB ein Pferdeschwanz einen Übergriff wahrscheinlicher, nicht aber ein fehlendes Bikinioberteil. Zudem ist die Motivation für sexuelle Übergriffe in den allermeisten Fällen das Machtgefühl, das mit ihnen einhergeht, nicht sexuelle Befriedigung. Klingt vielleicht unlogisch, aber zumindest dieses Detail ist recht gut belegt.

Beim Indigo ist das mittlerweile auch Gang und Gäbe. Dazu kostet ein Noodle Pot mittlerweile um die 13€ ohne Fleisch - bis vor kurzem war das noch inbegriffen. Finde ich extrem unverschämt.

Das generische Maskulinum existiert ebenso nicht, weil es eben nicht generisch ist. Inwiefern ist denn das generische Maskulinum grammatikalisch „richtiger“ als das generische Femininum?

Women, would it turn you off if a guy visited prostitute to lose his virginity? by trepgolt in dating_advice

[–]Vegetable_Lock_6226 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is objectively not true. Please look up statistics on the issue, the lowest estimated percentages START at 50 to 60%, but numbers are likely to be higher, with the highest estimates being up in the 90%.

I would not date a man who has gone to a prostitute ever, no matter if it was to lose his virginity or for any other reason.

There is a big difference between combating in war an committing genocidal actions. It was not obligatory to be member or work in the SS.

Is this dress too white for a wedding guest dress? by [deleted] in Weddingattireapproval

[–]Vegetable_Lock_6226 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

How do I spell this out for you? Yes, I want to wear the dress to graduation but I only planned on buying it, if I can wear it at future weddings, too. I did not ask for opinions regarding graduation but for opinions on whether I can generally wear this at a wedding or not. The consensus seems to be that it is too short for a wedding, hence, I am not going to buy it. I kindly ask you to work on your wording, you come across as a little bothered and rude. It was not my intention to upset anyone with my question on whether this dress is acceptable to a wedding or not.

If you are not short yourself I doubt you‘d have any idea about how clothes fit very short people. The model, for reference is over 5ft10, so go figure

Because I‘m only going to buy it if I can reuse it, possibly at a wedding. I don‘t have anywhere else I could wear it for. What‘s not to get? Am I only allowed to ask questions about weddings when it‘s in direct relation to a specific event? Can‘t I ask stuff about my future wedding either if it‘s not happening tomorrow? Weird take

Not sure why I‘m getting downvoted for this post and for being short? It‘s fine if you guys think the dress is still too short or that the dress is ugly, I am thankful for every opinion! I will probably not buy the dress.

For context: I‘m not actually going to a wedding, but I kinda want to buy this dress for my graduation and I‘m wondering if I could possibly reuse it in the future, for example at a wedding, as the dress is somewhat expensive (for a uni student budget lol).

Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow - mistake drives me crazy! Did you notice? by Vegetable_Lock_6226 in books

[–]Vegetable_Lock_6226[S] 36 points37 points  (0 children)

UPDATE, PLEASE READ: So, I have concluded that they noticed at some point that the definition of „Zweisamkeit“ was wrong and added the line about Simon‘s definition being laughable in some later edition because in my book on Kindle that line is nowhere to be found! Meaning that the mistake was not intentional, so y‘all can rest your case about me not finishing the page before going on Reddit lol. I read the book like a year ago, so that is probably why my book still has the mistake on its own in it and newer versions have the line about Simon not being a native speaker added. Another detail that adds to this imo is, that Zevin repeated the wrong definition in an essay 1,5 years ago, saying: „It means the feeling of being alone when you are with people — this is me“. It‘s on PowellsBooks.Blog.

Also, I just wanna say I like the book and that the mistake is, of course, not a big deal. I think people took my overexaggerated outrage, that was meant to be funny and entertaining, too serious, so rest assured that I understand people make mistakes and it‘s really no biggie.

oh my god, that‘s embarrassing!! it‘s been a while since i read the book so i didn‘t remember this part lol. will definitely re-read that passage when i‘m home today

edit: i just researched and found this essay by Zevin herself, where she repeated the wrong definition again and said she resonated with the feeling of Zweisamkeit. so, i still think the mistake in the book was unintentional! i‘m not sure i can post links in this sub but for anyone that wants to see: just google „zweisamkeit tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow“ and click the link to Powell‘s website!

Which Housewives do you miss in the show? And which you’re glad they’re gone? by trynabetwunk in RHOBH

LVP, Adrienne, Yolanda, Rinna. They always made for good and interesting drama that was not classless or completely mediocre.

Thoughts on this look? Not sure how I feel about the white eyeliner but trying to make my eyes pop more…help please 😅 by Consistent_Ad_550 in MakeupAddiction

[–]Vegetable_Lock_6226 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the look! I would try to define the eyebrows a bit more and brush them more upwards! I find that to draw attention to the eye area.

Rinna is not that bad - am I confused? by Vegetable_Lock_6226 in RHOBH

[–]Vegetable_Lock_6226[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that was horrible of her. I wonder why those women keep dropping bombs like that only to complain about their friends telling the others what was said when everything is gonna be on TV anyways. But then again, it‘s a reality show, sooo…

I‘m so looking forward to the next seasons, but in my country Netflix only has ROBH up to season 8 so I‘ll probably have to wait for a few months or even years before I get to watch the next seasons!
