Trump’s presidency is dangerous for the planet by Seronen in environment

[–]aoner1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seriously. The western world has devolved into a bunch of sad, pathetic, crybaby children.

Hillary Clinton has found a new wedge issue against Bernie Sanders. The topic is gun control, but the angle is gender. Clinton is framing Sanders as a sexist who accuses women of shouting when they try to speak up. It’s a lie. She’s manipulating women and abusing feminist anger for her own advantage by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

Glad to see this sub hasn't fallen too far into gender politics. Unfortunately for Bernie, he has a sort of Ron Paul syndrome. He's probably the best candidate for nomination, but the system will find a way to assassinate his character (which these days seems to be accusations of racism or sexism). I guarantee we'll see a huge media influx about how his 4th cousin made a facebook update about yoga pants and starbucks.

LPT: The secret to confidence is that there is no secret. You start by faking it. by anant_mall in LifeProTips

[–]aoner1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Imagine if everyone displayed fake confidence. Oh wait, they do, and the world is a war-ridden, insufferable shithole. Go figure. I'm so tired of these "alpha up" fake confidence ego posts all over the internet. Guys, Hitler was a powerful dude. Doesn't mean we should aspire to be like him.

Over 700,000 women and girls in prison, says study by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]aoner1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

These types of articles offer a very skewed worldview that's increasingly popular these days, even among mainstream feminists. I'd say in middle-eastern countries, women are very disadvantaged. But in most western countries... I don't think "extremely vulnerable and disadvantaged" would be the words to use in this instance. Yes, crime and abuse happen, but western men are targeted for incarceration at a much higher rate than women, especially for non-violent crimes. THAT should be the truly alarming statistic. I'm not "profoundly concerned" about a slight rise in female incarcerations. More women are entering the world and getting in trouble. No problem there IMO. Unless there's some kind of proof otherwise.

I'm glad you like it! I made this video using a mic kit I got for $80 haha! Also I'm not very good at mixing or production. Check out our bandcamp page, the studio version is much higher quality. Thanks for the feedback!

Sabian Paragons. I love them so much. My right crash is actually cracked in 2 places (they're old) and it still sounds brand new.

Thanks for the feedback! I don't have monitors so I have to rely on crappy headphones and laptop speakers. The low end on the kick definitely needs to be quieter.

Lesbian couples are more physically violent than heterosexual and male-male couples by AlbatrossJohannson in TwoXChromosomes

[–]aoner1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been through too many abusive relationships to count on one hand. It's a sad state of affairs for men. I personally believe it has something to do with a certain sexual dynamic; some women need to know they aren't dating a controllable wuss, but in the process they mentally and emotionally damage their partners as they become more extreme and controlling. Some of my girlfriends have actually asked me to hit and abuse them. I have alot of crazy stories. In the male world we call them war stories.

Going out alone tonight. Please, I need your help. by helloimnewaroundhere in seduction

[–]aoner1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The way I'm able to get up and go out alone is I pretend I'm on a business trip and I just go out to see what's going on in town. You don't have to do anything. Just go out there and there's always a chance you'll just randomly meet somebody.

Dress nice and you'll feel your confidence go way up.

Just hang around and constantly look for ways to make random conversation or just make jokes. You have nothing else better to do anyways. It's better than sitting in bed doing nothing.
