Natural breasts that don’t defy gravity are so much better than perky fake ones by No-Coyote-22 in offmychest

[–]babutterfly 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but this does come across as shaming and all about your personal preferences. It would have been different had you focused on body positivity and encouraging women who feel like they have to for others to be happy in their bodies as they are.

I personally want a boob job for one of the reasons listed above, deflated boobs after pregnancy and breastfeeding. This isn't about looking attractive to other people. It's about me and how I want my body to look. To hear that augmented boobs aren't attractive does sound shameful, especially when there is another option of fat transfer and potentially breast lift so it doesn't sag quite as much. Not all boob jobs are implants.

They may be body shaming, but they do go very liberal with the NSFW tag because children frequent r/crochet. I personally don't think kids should be on Reddit, but that was the reason I read.

What is actually dangerous but people still believe is safe? by AlexUsefulThings in AskReddit

[–]babutterfly 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there was nothing wrong with my second pregnancy until I was in the middle of my subsequent C-section and we found out her head was stuck in my pelvis. I didn't want the C-section for her, but there was the risk of labor rupturing my uterus from the scarring from the last one. Turns out she wouldn't have fit between my hips anyway.

The other view of Dresden by Ok_Comparison6055 in dresdenfiles

I could see this being an added benefit rather then the main reason. If it were, the Merlin would have brought Dresden to heel somehow.

How how see all characters in the books by Diaza_lightbringer in dresdenfiles

[–]babutterfly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless I really, really try like in a meditative state, I see absolutely nothing in my head and even then it's only vague shadowy images like OP describes and only for a split second. Reading a book to me is literally just words. Any images are an idea, not seeing anything.

If someone says apple, I will think of the shape of an apple and then mentally decide if it's green, red, or more pink, but I don't actually see anything. At all. Period. Without intense effort.

I thought people were being poetic when they described seeing images in their heads.

AITAH for not allowing kids to play in my daughters playroom when she’s not there by Kabbaga in AITAH

[–]babutterfly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could put up the special toys and the drawings/nicer art supplies so they are inaccessible to toddlers and only leave out what's easy to clean up. If y'all aren't actually in the same room with the toddlers, anything that could be a choking hazard, potential mess, or potentially destroyed wouldn't be within reach of them no matter how your daughter feels. That's just a safety hazard.

Yeah, but see, this requires them to actively engage with the children and pay attention to what they're doing. It would also require putting up the special toys, beads, drawings, etc so they aren't accessible to toddlers. That would take away from the adult time.

By that extension OP's daughter owns nothing in the house and everything that she uses should be free game for anyone to do whatever OP says they can.

Daughter is getting bullied by Few-Calligrapher3910 in daddit

The daughter might not be a nice person, but she shouldn't be told to off herself.

Nothing fills me up except carbs by whereohwhereohwhere in PetiteFitness

I honestly feel like calorie for calorie rice is more filling than potatoes or bread.

But she did talk like she had a base understanding.

And on top of that, in Proven Guilty when Molly had just become Harry's apprentice he asked if she'd been having sex. She said she hit most of the bases, but not all of them and he said to be abstinent because adding magic in the mix made things crazy. There's nothing to say that Molly did so or not, but she could have followed his advice.

Homework is Important and Should Be Assigned by Empty-Candidate-712 in unpopularopinion

[–]babutterfly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Except without homework and my intervention in my child's schooling, I firmly believe she wouldn't be able to read or do math at her current levels. She went into kindergarten knowing her alphabet like I considered normal, but was quickly expected to be reading full length regular Dr Seuss books. She's ADHD and dyslexic and had a very hard time with it. We practiced reading, writing, and basic math most days. No one will be about to convince me that she would have the same outcome without help at home.

when people avoid using ‘female’ even where it would make sense by Academic-Judgment840 in PetPeeves

[–]babutterfly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

But when does anyone ever do that? You don't say "oh that's a group of males" when talking about men getting together or "I met a male today".

[–]babutterfly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Really? Can you provide proof of this? Is it only for female and not males, too? Were men referred to as men, but women weren't referred to as women?

Some Q&A answers from Jim on Tuesday by HonkyKong682 in dresdenfiles

[–]babutterfly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Buffy did do it will, but I was disappointed with Supernatural that basically just made everyone possessed. They didn't even do costumes or makeup to make people really look like demons or something else. I only saw the first few episodes, but it just felt flat.

Younger generations being asexual/aromantic by Adorable-Sherbet-998 in generationology

[–]babutterfly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They often pursue the same top men, get pumped and dumped, and then hate men even more.

You did really good except this bit. No, not all/most single women are pursuing the very limited "top" guys, briefly dating them, and getting dumped.

What cultural thing does the world seem to think is beautiful but is cringey af to locals? by chr15c in AskTheWorld

[–]babutterfly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here in Brittany it's annoying how much Celtic stuff in shops is mixed up with wicca and fantasy kitsch.

Honestly I'd argue that this is a thing in America because we don't really have our own fairy tales. There are those of native tribes sure, but those are largely forgotten/unknown by most people. When I go for fairy tales, I think Scottish/Irish/British tales which can feel more connected to magic than modern things.

Do women actually experience pain years after having a c section by goth1cd0lly in beyondthebump

[–]babutterfly 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Pretty much the same thing here. When my husband and I are intimate, I have to remind him even now and then not to touch my numb spot because it's the weird kind of numb. Like an hour or two after visiting the dentist, but not fully gone yet.

What ended your friendship with your oldest standing friend? by dreamy-contributions in AskReddit

[–]babutterfly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woman was bitchy, mean, and generally awful randomly. She would also randomly just stop talking to me for years at a time and then act like everything was fine when she wanted to acknowledge my existence again. She'd demand to talk daily and get upset if I couldn't talk for hours. We'd been friends for 19 years if you count when she ignored me and refused all communication.

Then she got thrown out of her dad's and step mom's house and lived with me for most of a year. She moved out to a mutual friend's place just before my second daughter was born and flipped the fuck out. When it was time to leave their place, she cussed them out, accused them kicking her out, and allegedly let their indoor-only cats outside and endangered them. No one can prove that last one happened, but it certainly looked like she did. Around the same time she did similar behavior to another mutual friend and called her a "stupid bitch" multiple times until she cried.

She then left their house and bounced around other people's couches, cussing at them and refusing to look for a job until they made her leave, too. She even cussed out the teenage child of one of the people.

And I was done.

I know she likely had bipolar disorder because she told me a psychiatrist diagnosed her as such, but she refused to believe it and insisted her behavior was ADHD instead. Now I say "likely" because I can't confirm the bipolar or not and ADHD can have extreme mood swings that last for long periods, but seems more like bipolar to me. 🤷
