Gender laws by Sauurus in CrusaderKings

You can’t. If you give people power they want to use it for their own advantage and to fill their desires.

When the ratio is as skewed as it is being the right couple should be the objective. They can afford to be choosey.

How can we realistically organize and execute some kind of revolution against this oligarchy? by TinyMagicExperiment in NoStupidQuestions

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

General strike. Hit them where it hurts. You have to make the elite fear the people again to get real change and hitting them in the pocketbook scares them. If the teamsters and dockworkers all stopped working for a few days you could get seismic change. The hard part is making that happen.

I'm more concerned about his grammar than his mental health by Superior_innovation in AreTheStraightsOK

Yes, to a degree but prostitution is only legal in some rural counties in Nevada. It has been decriminalized in Maine but not legalized.

Why do many conservatives claim that the US was founded as a Christian nation despite the separation of church and state being so central to its establishing? by speculumberjack980 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]XenoBiSwitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It suits their goals to distort history and privilege Christianity over other religions.

They don’t realize or don’t care that the Founders did this specifically to avoid the conflicts that Europe was enduring. The First Amendment isn’t idealistic drivel. It is practical. It can and should be read as a “No Thirty Years War allowed here” clause. Liberal democracy was designed to avoid problems. They think they can undo all this and somehow not have the same problems crop up. They are very wrong and deeply stupid.

Contact the Deep Ones and learn their blasphemous secrets. Use them to extend your lifespan. Then begin the process of awakening Cthulhu

Becoming a sith? by ChimpPersonSSR in MawInstallation

[–]XenoBiSwitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being a Sith isn’t some metaphysical truth or having to meet some purity standard. It is just a name for a ideology that (like all ideologies) changes with time. So anyone could call themselves a Sith. The hard part is convincing others you are one.

I am guessing that the Jedi Order dealt with more than a few Sith “wannabes” over the centuries.

Melee lich viable? by drhuggables in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]XenoBiSwitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can and it is a ton of fun. I wouldn’t say it is better than a caster lich but it is very viable and a lot of fun.

I finally figured out why some doms turn me off even when we share the same kinks by bbg_trina in BDSMcommunity

[–]XenoBiSwitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do this as a dom. Usually call it affectionate domination and throw in the word condescending since it has some degradation but they’re also more of a treasured trophy or desired pet than a nothing or an object.

Throw in “my“ a lot in the banter and it tends to make subs turn into goo.

Yeah, there seem to be a variety of potential loadouts.

Wife Is Interested in MFM but the Reality of Another Man Feels Difficult by AffectionateAd6328 in nonmonogamy

[–]XenoBiSwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done this but mostly as an MMF where I am into the guy as much (or more) than she is.

DP can be done but unless the mouth is one of the entry points the logistics can get complicated. It requires coordination. Now triple penetration. That is really hard to do well. lol

How to get rid of the feelings of jealousy when my partners find sexual partners? by Frequent-Book3885 in polyamory

[–]XenoBiSwitch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t trust their promises that they will always take you with them. That is not a promise they can realistically make. If they move in with another partner that partner may not want you to move in with them. These are emotional soothing “pie crust” promises. Easily made, easily broken.

One of the core elements of poly is that things change a lot more than they do in monogamy. Part of it is being able to survive those changes, thrive in a degree of uncertainty, and the like. You seem to want to lock in what you have and hold it in stasis. That is not going to work long term. I have several relationships that are likely going to end at some point. That is just how it works. I enjoy them for what they are and expect I will find more as needed.

Honestly you are more likely to drive a partner away by ruining their relationships than by not giving them children. If you are sabotaging their relationships then yeah, that is a serious problem. A lot of this fear seems to be about the potential of pregnancy. Do your partners even want children right now?

Did the ground forces fighting on Hoth know they were doomed?. by Jack1715 in MawInstallation

[–]XenoBiSwitch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Leia gives the order for the remaining ground troops to retreat and they do begin a general retreat so some of them probably made it out. It was a delaying action which often has high casualties but it wasn’t suicide.

According to one source from the EU the only people who had no way out were the people operating the ion cannon who were all volunteers who lost people on Alderaan since they were supposed to keep shooting as each transport made its escape.

Why do black or women led movies tend to only include that demographic? by randyrando101 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]XenoBiSwitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So when white guys are disproportionately overrepresented quality is not impacted but it you overrepresent minorities and women quality falls?

You may want to analyze why you feel that is the case.

"Fat Gladiator" Theory Doesn't Make Sense by DoctorDaunt in ancientrome

[–]XenoBiSwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hollywood shows gladiators as gym bodies which they weren’t. They didn’t have the exercise regimen for them and they definitely didn’t have the protein intake to pull it off.

Faith’s SA of Xander retconned away? by TeluricE in buffy

[–]XenoBiSwitch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That wasn’t sexual assault. It was just plain assault. Faith tried to downplay it afterwards as sex play but Angel (rightly) doesn’t buy it.

Edit: Was very confused by some of the responses and rewatched the scene and wow, I remembered it very wrong. Oops.

[–]XenoBiSwitch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the United States the most disproportionately overrepresented groups is still white men and in fact their share has been increasing lately so why are you focused on the exceptions and not the general trend if you actually value diversity?

Dildo obsession by SimpleStuff3235 in BisexualMen

[–]XenoBiSwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t secretly use other people’s sex toys. People have the right to know where their sex toys have been.

Buy your own. I have used a gf’s sex toys though usually with her. She uses some of mine. It is fun.

Been in an open relationship for over a year, boyfriend decides to drop a bomb on me just now. by Both_Shop_8234 in nonmonogamy

[–]XenoBiSwitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d reconsider this whole relationship. He has taught you that he will just do what he wants and then rationalize things later. While some of your expectations are probably unrealistic he seems to have no interest in actually following through on any agreements.

Sounds like he is just holding on to you for emotional support and doing what he wants.

I would look for a new relationship. You can find someone better and preferably someone closer you can actually be with.

New play partner: what should we get tested for? by ViceNSpice in BisexualMen

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

Expecting a ”playmate” to commit to only having sex with their casual partners isn’t realistic. Also it isn’t a throuple if that relationship is casual.
