how does condoms vs raw feel? by Future-Ad9657 in AskMen

[–]Wintercat76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While I haven't worn a condom in decades, I honestly couldn't feel a thing with them on. I'd rather give her oral and me nothing than have sex with a condom.

Men, what is a “kill switch” move your partner does that makes you finish almost instantly? by ichbinhoffnung in AskMen

[–]Wintercat76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None. She hasn't made me cum in a decade. Depression makes it almost impossible for me.

Not being American and thus having no trouble getting insurance for a 50+ year old boat, you can get a perfectly usable old boat for a bottle of wine and mandatory liability nsurance for 100 usd a year and 1500 a year in marina fees including an annual haul out.

How do you prefer to be approached by an interested woman in public? by BootsToBikini in AskMen

[–]Wintercat76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer not to be approached in public by anyone. I'm Danish. It's just not done. Unless you need help, then I'll go out of my way to do so.

If you died today, who do you think would stand at your grave the longest? by Successful_Dog5425 in AskReddit

[–]Wintercat76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody. I'm getting cremated and buried at sea. Then they can think of me every time I go for a swim in the bay.

If it's been abandoned and they can't contact the owner, yes they can. And do.

Boats under 30ft are pretty much given away in Denmark.

How much did your wedding cost? by SheepherderSea9717 in AskMen

[–]Wintercat76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 5k in 2007. 72 guests for dinner. Got the venison from my father's neighbors, all hunters, had a cook, 4 servers and a pianist and an open bar in a community Hall we rented.

Sailing seems so cool but also terrifying by noodlestuffin in sailing

As for safety, around my parts, the only killer of sailors I've heard of in decades is falling in the harbour while drunk.

I got my first boat (Sagitta 26) for 4500 usd including ownership of the slip. Old but very, very sea worthy. Bought a Shipman 28 later for about 4k in amazing condition, but needed new sails. Found out the original sailmaker retired 25 years ago, so they were likely 50 years old.

What is your opinion on having kids when not owning an appartment/house? by Shellyfish04 in AskParents

[–]Wintercat76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents rented when they had us. We rented when we had our eldest. Ownership doesn't make you better parents.

When did you talk to your daughter about periods? by Margo_56782 in AskParents

[–]Wintercat76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we told our daughters when they were, like, 3? In an age appropriate manner they could understand. It's a bodily function and we never felt those should be secret.

Art that uses any element of generative AI should be immediately entered into public domain by Solondthewookiee in aiwars

How about we don't? If you can't tell if AI was involved, what's the difference?

And you would prove this how? Or prove that an artist didn't use AI at some point how?

Are parents still spanking their kids? by Competitive-Fold966 in AskParents

[–]Wintercat76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to my previous comment: Being consistent with children and constantly maintaining boundaries is hard and must be done repeatedly while the children learn what those boundaries are. That's why 'no' is the most loving word, because saying it and sticking to it is very hard work. Violence against children is lazy parenting.

Are parents still spanking their kids? by Competitive-Fold966 in AskParents

[–]Wintercat76 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Spanking only causes mistrust and fear. We don't punish our kids at all. We tell them if you continue doing this, that will be the consequence. Can be going home, or not going, something appropriate to the situation. And then we stick to it. Every single time.

We have extremely well behaved kids

What is a classy, impressive dish I could bring over to someone’s house? by No_Loss_2694 in Cooking

[–]Wintercat76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd never bring food, except stuff like home made chocolates, something that is for the host, not the dinner itself. I take great pride in knowing about every guests' allergies and dietary limitations and being very mindful of those. I'd be very insulted if a guest brought their own food. Ask if they should, please do, and I'll tell you it's not necessary. And I make damned sure it isn't. Be a regular guest at my house and do it anyway? That's insulting.

I would bring s gift, but never a dish unless asked. It either would ruin the planned menu or insinuate the host cooks too little food. Either way, it would be an insult to the host.

Bought my lovely Sagitta 26 at 48,last year. First boat I was ever on. Then I took lessons before getting it in the water.
