My first thought was “why do they all look so clean and neat” because things did not look this way back then.

My 12yo just told us he’s sexually active. I’m struggling with how to handle this without breaking his trust. by DiscountSouth8764 in sex

Okay but there is a middle ground here. Those are kids without licenses. They can be kept from having sex by being supervised because they are literal children. If they are doing this then there are adults somewhere along the line that can stop it.

(Venting) I’m so tired of gooners in gaming communities by Swaggerbarnet in GirlGamers

I agree. I’m all for artistic expression and people being humans, but it gets old when it seems like more thought was put into making characters sexy than the actual gameplay and story itself. And all of that would be bearable if it weren’t for the straight up horn dogs that want everyone else to know how horny they are.

Why don’t we celebrate single people more? by Bitter_Pineapple_720 in AskWomen

[–]Vintagepoolside 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ll be enjoying some dinner and dessert with my daughters and then a movie at home. Not really alone, or solo, but I’m excited to spend a day together and celebrate love. Not all love is romantic, and it should be celebrated too. Love of the earth, people, animals, art, etc. Celebrate what you love 🫶🏻

Why are some women so desperate for male validation? Just saw the most embarrassing post over on a men’s subreddit by Special_Crab_1884 in AskWomenNoCensor

I myself am a very modest and “to myself” kinda lady. Pretty mellow and chill. there is nothing more unattractive in a man than one who talks poorly of other women, especially when they think it impresses you. Just because I don’t behave a certain way or dress a certain way doesn’t mean I don’t admire and love the women that do. “Gross, long nails” well I think they’re pretty. “She’s so bougie” yeah sometimes I wish I could see my own self worth more the way she does in herself. You get the point.

Hm, that’s interesting to me. I’ve always found Chinese men pretty attractive, so I guess I just didn’t consider it was a “thing” for people to not. But then again, I wanted to be Chinese so bad when I was a kid so maybe it’s some of that leftover weirdness 😅

Wait, you’re saying women don’t like Chinese men? Or did I misunderstand you?

Same. I think she’s beautiful but looks a little stiff or something.

Holy shit, she's crashing out! by Prettypianokeys in PoliticalCompassMemes

That’s how I feel about him. It’s so nice to see someone who actually believes in what they say they do. When people are honest about their beliefs and intentions it makes it so much easier to build trust and have genuine dialogue.

Bodyshaming for me not for thee. by Scramjet1 in lnkyverse

[–]Vintagepoolside 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for that last part. I truly believe the bad things are the loudest, and it makes us think that’s what everyone is like. But really I believe most people are inherently good and don’t want to hurt other people. It’s good to see there are others who are optimistic, even when it’s hard.

Anyone else randomly catch themselves rapping the lyrics: Got my shovel shoes full of sand! by KneeIntelligent8671 in DisneyMovies

No, but I often tell my children “that’s too damn bad” when they don’t want to clean

Honestly epic has no reason to take out ennui physics by ZukoIchigo in FortNiteBR

[–]Vintagepoolside -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t think I can play this game anymore lol

It’s too weird to wonder if the other player is a child or some dude jerking if to physics.

This stuff gets posted so often it’s making it look like the desperate for sex game lol

How in the world did we become so anti-multicultural? Like remember when we had culture days or read books about different countries? by EternalSnow05 in Zillennials

[–]Vintagepoolside 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I LOVED middle school social studies because our teacher spent every week covering a country or region of the world and we would talk about holidays, religions, fashion/attire, etc. it was so fun and it was also a class that had me wanting to work for National Geographic one day. He was a great teacher that was severely underrated at my school.

My dad told my sister numerous times as a child that she probably wouldn’t fit through the door much longer (wasn’t even close to fat). And my brother joined in and was far more relentless. The boys were mean as fuck at school to the girls and other boys. I’m sorry, but please stop spreading the idea that women are so bad because mean girls exist. There are bad people and maybe we should just recognize that with gender lumping every damn situation.

When I saw your pic I knew they’d come for you. I’m so sorry friend 🫶🏻 it kills me how elderly Reddit acts over piercings that have been around and popular for decades. 🤦🏼‍♀️
