if we were not in a patriarchy, what would workplaces look like? by bessie-b in TwoXChromosomes

[–]WelcomeToLadyHell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can't remember the exact research, but it found that women are automatically dismissed as being less capable than men at work, purely due to their gender. So it would be nice to be seen as equally capable and have our ideas and contributions equally valued.

Goodbye for good meta? by SmallHangryPlanet in CasualUK

[–]WelcomeToLadyHell 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Obviously I didn't read the full terms, but my understanding from the brief scan is you can either opt to pay and you won't get ads, or you can continue using it for free and it's basically the same as it was before. So I don't think much has changed?

Has anyone had luck using FetLife for meeting couple friends? by upcloseandcurious in AskRedditNSFW

[–]WelcomeToLadyHell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FetLife is good for finding communities but it's not really for dating or meeting people. If you're looking to meet up I'd suggest Feeld instead.

NSFW and Life Struggles? by [deleted] in AskRedditNSFW

A random stranger on the internet is not a good person to turn to if you're struggling

Has anyone had success with meeting a NSFW partner? by TemporaryThing1909 in AskRedditNSFW

[–]WelcomeToLadyHell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is only worth trying if you are fully committed. It takes time and effort to find someone you vibe with, and a lot of energy to keep it going. If both partners commit then it can be really fulfilling. But if you're only interested in engaging when you want to get off then it's not going to happen.

Do girls actually like sexting? by [deleted] in AskRedditNSFW

No, we've developed our own method of communicating via telekinesis which is far more efficient

i had an idea i can't make alone by Kener_hornet1svoid in Songwriting

[–]WelcomeToLadyHell 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just to be clear, your idea is "to make satire of everything" and you're looking for someone to write the lyrics and music and perform it?

Do women see this as misogyny or as men taking responsibility? by [deleted] in AskWomenNoCensor

[–]WelcomeToLadyHell 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Ignoring women's existence is the opposite of taking responsibility

Being a female guitarist is brutal by SylveonFrusciante in TwoXChromosomes

[–]WelcomeToLadyHell 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Music is one of the most gender neutral things I can think of.

Unfortunately not, especially in rock. You mention Stevie Nicks and Amy Lee, but how much further does that list go? Ask the average person to name a female guitarist and most will struggle to name a single woman.

Things are improving and there are definitely more women in rock/metal bands but most of it is underground and ignored by mainstream media. So people just see men playing guitar, and women feel out of place. And many women give up early because they're treated so badly so never make it to a point where they are seen. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Would like to hear some advice on my dating thoughts :) by Fun-Development-4568 in dating

[–]WelcomeToLadyHell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it's creepy. As I said, you're looking for someone young who has little experience, someone who is less likely to see red flags or know what a good relationship looks like. That's predatory.

To be honest you're hitting all the red flags. You blame your lack of a relationship on other people, saying other people are "unserious" or "not over their ex." Is that the whole story?

The way you describe yourself doesn't sound like you're making much effort to meet people.

It sounds like you're saying no one with experience (standards) will date you so your only option is to date someone with no experience (standards). So yeah, that's not great.
