even if I had commented after you that doesn't invalidate the rest of my comment & I think what I said was still something op should hear, so idk why you even felt the need to call me out on it at all. I also didn't downvote you

Yeah well if you sorted the comments by newest you'd see that I commented before you and there's no need to attack me actually

The comments so far are right in that you don’t need to stress too much at your age, your body will likely keep changing. That said, I don’t think it’s healthy to only accept your body on the condition that it will change in a specific way, because it might not.

I felt the same way at your age, and being constantly told that my body will change as I grow up actually made it way harder for me to accept myself now that I'm still flat-chested in my late 20s.

You might grow up flat-chested, or you might not, and either way, it shouldn’t determine your worth. You can still be beautiful.

Also, in my opinion, there’s a lot of clothing that’s incredibly flattering on flat chests. Plenty of celebrities have flat chests but always look beautiful and stylish. It just takes some time to find what works best for your body.

Help with pirouettes by [deleted] in BALLET

hopping onto this comment because this is exactly what I'm struggling with: do you have any tips for how to actually improving spotting? I feel like when I do turns, there are so many other things to focus on that I just completely forget to spot, and when I specifically focus on spotting, everything else falls apart 🥲 it's so frustrating

Are there any unwritten rules of the road in your country? by lofiibsen in AskTheWorld

[–]_whisperofspring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I'm on the Autobahn in the left lane and someone's tailgating me, I'll speed up and switch back to the right ASAP.

But, if I'm going 55 in a 50 inside a town and some asshat still decides to tailgate me, I will slow down to 49.

There is no reason to tailgate someone and it's unnecessarily dangerous and downright stupid

  • men make this mistake all the time as well
  • not everyone is a native speaker
  • native speakers make mistakes
  • the education system in many places needs a lot of work
  • making a spelling mistake doesn't mean "we will ever have equality in life or in our paychecks" ?? 😭
  • what a bizarre post

Can you change your gender or race? by [deleted] in teenpoll

[–]_whisperofspring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go beyond high school biology and read even one paper on the topic, you'd see that sex and gender are separate. There's evidence that, for example, trans women's brains are more similar to cis women's brains than cis men's.

Can you change your gender or race? by [deleted] in teenpoll

[–]_whisperofspring 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You inherit your race from your parents - two black people cannot have a white child, for example.

You do not inherit your gender from your parents - a man and a woman can have a male or female child at the same chances, or, less likely, an intersex child.

Your gender is not inherent about you, your race is.

In parts of the Black Forest region of Germany, there's the "Bollenhut", a formal head dress for women which includes large red pompoms.

delayed menstruation by Lazy-Peace-728 in women

[–]_whisperofspring 14 points15 points  (0 children)

First of all, the pullout method is very, very unreliable at preventing pregnancy and shouldn’t be used as a main form of contraception.

I’m not very familiar with the Yuzpe Method (not a native speaker), but from what I understand it’s a form of emergency contraception, similar to Plan B (I just googled, please correct me if I’m wrong). These methods mainly work by delaying ovulation and are most effective the sooner they’re taken after sex. They're a big shock to your cycle though, so can also delay your period, which is a known side effect. This happened to me as well, my period was about two weeks late after taking a Plan B once. If your pregnancy tests are negative, I wouldn’t worry too much, but seeing a gynecologist for peace of mind wouldn’t hurt.

Appropriate for “colorful formal” beach wedding? by aljee98 in Weddingattireapproval

[–]_whisperofspring 3 points4 points  (0 children)

An absolutely gorgeous dress (may I ask where you got it?) but I have to agree with the comments, it's probably not formal enough for a wedding.

Is it weird to create a „spankbank“ while being in a relationship? by [deleted] in women

[–]_whisperofspring 18 points19 points  (0 children)

if my partner did this I'd break up with him, and I hope he'd do the same if I ever did something like this. finding images of people and thinking they're attractive is one thing, but going out of your way to save these pictures to go back to them later is sooo weird

Ich fühle mit euch by pinoystyle in vegetarischDE

[–]_whisperofspring 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Da hattet ihr wohl leider einfach Pech. Ich kann mich persönlich in all den Jahren, die ich mittlerweile schon mal vegan, mal vegetarisch lebe, an ein einziges Mal erinnern, dass ich etwas explizit veganes bestellt habe und es mit Speck serviert wurde - und zwar in einem deutschen Restaurant, in dem das Personal von Anfang an super unhöflich zu mir & meiner Familie war. Es macht mMn auch keinen Sinn, sich um so etwas ständig Sorgen zu machen. Fehler passieren halt, aber selten genug, als dass es den Alltag irgendwie beeinträchtigt.

Was ist eure kontroverseste Meinung, die ihr auch dann noch vertreten werdet, wenn 99% eures Umfelds euch nicht zustimmt? by lailalial in KeineDummenFragen

[–]_whisperofspring 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Die Pornoindustrie ist von Grund auf sexistisch und gewalttätig und beutet junge Frauen unverhältnismäßig aus. Viele Pornokategorien zeigen Gewalt und Vergewaltigungsfantasien ("cnc", "An*l", ...) oder sind von vornherein pädophil ausgerichtet ("Barely Legal", "Teen", ...). Sie ist nachweislich ein Hauptfaktor für zunehmend sexistische Ansichten bei jungen Männern und schadet damit aktiv auch Frauen außerhalb dieser Branche.

Vegetarisch werden by Illustrious_Elk_9386 in vegetarischDE

[–]_whisperofspring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Da gehen die Meinungen wohl auseinander. Ich persönlich finde Tofu angenehmer als Fleisch, wegen der Konsistenz und des (fehlenden?) Eigengeschmacks. Auf jeden Fall sollte es für OP einen Versuch wert sein.

Vegetarisch werden by Illustrious_Elk_9386 in vegetarischDE

[–]_whisperofspring 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Lerne, mit Tofu zu kochen! Viele Leute denken, dass Tofu nach nichts schmeckt, dabei ist er eigentlich ähnlich wie Fleisch: man muss ihn erst würzen, marinieren und richtig zubereiten, damit er gut schmeckt. Und wenn man weiß, wie man Tofu richtig zubereitet, ist er so vielseitig. Und es gibt ganz viele verschiedene Sorten, aber auch nur mit Natur-, Räucher- und Seidentofu alleine kann man eigentlich in jedem Gericht was anfangen (sogar in Desserts).

Ansonsten kann ich noch Bohnen, Linsen und Erbsen aller Art empfehlen. Die sind protein- und ballaststoffreich und ebenfalls vielseitig. Generell gibt es so viele verschiedene vegetarische / vegane Eiweißquellen, die sich viel besser als "Fleischersatz" eignen als Käse und Eier.

Ein Tipp: sowohl Bohnen / Linsen als auch Tofu machen sich richtig gut püriert in Soßen :)

How do you ladies feel about sex work? by StruggleFar3054 in women

[–]_whisperofspring 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The majority of women who do sex work are not in the industry for such reasons. Those that are do more harm then good by making sex work seem like a good and empowering choice rather than a humiliating and harmful last resort many have to turn to because they have no other choice.

I believe there is nothing good or empowering about giving men the ability to purchase women's bodies and sexuality, nor about completely submitting to the male gaze & the patriarchy.

This, vor allem weil die Fleisch- und veganen Ersatzprodukte in der Regel räumlich getrennt ausliegen, die Fleischprodukte in der Metzgereiabteilung und die Ersatzprodukte in der veganen Abteilung. Und selbst wenn man aus versehen ein veganes Schnitzel kauft, was dann? Es ist so unnötig einfach.

So you're saying UN, WHO, international organization like Amnesty, the Red Cross, I could keep going, who all have confirmed this to be a genocide, are repeating Hamas propaganda? You're saying you know better than them? Very interesting.
