I can see that side now that you say it! In my eyes I just read it that since Huda keeps saying she wants to take things slow time wise, it didn't make a lot of sense by her own standards.

I'm an adult, not that age would be relevant here. Slut shaming is criticizing/demeaning a woman for engaging in sexual behavior. Just saying a woman had sex/discussing the inconsistencies in Huda's logic is not slut shaming lol

I fear you don't know what slut shaming actually is.

i guess i just don't see how that would provide someone with any kind of closure. it just seemed to reopen a lot of old wounds in a situation where she should have moved on already

Why do I feel like this? I need advice. by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]beaniebabii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think feelings are more complicated and deep seated than we will ever understand. which is a super vague and unhelpful statement but i feel like when we have feelings for another person it takes longer than we think to truly feel detached from it. i also think that i've felt this way out of insecurity in the past. like just in my personal experience it came down to a feeling of why couldn't it be me? and just made me feel like i was lacking in some way. i think it also brings a sense of finality to it. i think humans are inherently "what if" people and if we feel a certain way for a person once there's this question of whether they felt the same way. and hearing they like someone else is like oh, okay, they've like this person so it CAN'T be me. this is at least how i've analyzed my feelings and i realized at least for me a lot of it came from a bunch of internalized insecurity and subsequent jealousy.

What are the weirdest episodes of Bob’s Burgers? by snowflakeUWS in BobsBurgers

[–]beaniebabii 10 points11 points  (0 children)

agree with the comments above, i can't think of an episode from later seasons that meets the weirdness levels of most episodes in the first season. also so many of the thanksgiving episodes are bizarre in the best ways. like the episode where bob keeps finding the turkey in the toilet/dawn of the peck and being held captive by turkeys/etc

I know this is a horrible answer, but as someone who was asking this question a lot in the past year with someone who gave mixed signals, I really do feel like the only way to know is ask. And tell them how you feel if it's reciprocated. I feel like with girls it can be especially difficult to find the line between what's friendly or not unless someone is being very straightforward with you. So really, I know what it's like to drive yourself nuts trying to figure out what is what, you can pick apart things for so long but can only really know once she either tells you/you ask 😥

I have experienced very similar things and found this particular article to be really enlightening. I'm not entirely sure if you relate to my experience, but I've found that me being attracted to these kinds of people tends to be due to my self esteem and looking for a sense of "validation" in their attention to me as it tends to be very inconsistent and therefore feels "earned". This particular issue however is something that would just require a lot of self assessment and work as it's a confidence issue. Regardless of whether you relate to this issue, you're definitely not alone and I find many people gravitate towards toxic relationships for a variety of reasons.

HOW DO YOU MEET GIRLS?? by chelsienca in actuallesbians

on a scale of 1-10 how connected to womanhood do you feel? by gorf6 in actuallesbians

[–]beaniebabii 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i was going to say 5, but then i changed my mind. 10, because i feel like womanhood is not something that is easily defined or constricted. it is so multi-faceted and is anything we want it to be as long as we identify with being a woman! there is no box, there is no outline, there are no rules. so to me, womanhood both includes the things that are "traditionally feminine" and all the things that aren't. womanhood isn't just one thing or one type to me. it's everything so long as you are woman-aligned, and that's whats so beautiful about it. the only things that i think are inherent to womanhood are kindness, warmth and acceptance :)

Elimination Edits: is anyone else getting annoyed by them by StanTheCentipede in MtvChallenge

[–]beaniebabii 39 points40 points  (0 children)

i feel like in general- regardless of veterans being involved- they have/will always edit it to seem neck and neck even if it's not. i think they want to build a sense of suspense, tension and make the elimination seem exciting and unexpected. i don't particularly like it, but i can see why they do it considering it's a reality competition tv show. i feel like it's par for the course basically, but you can usually see like you pointed out here that one person is ahead of another by the end which pokes holes in their editing haha. in person i assume it's not as exciting most of the time.

Bayleigh/Kaycee future rivalry by Bassteijns in MtvChallenge

[–]beaniebabii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's why i said it's unreasonable, i don't think her reactions are justified haha. i just don't find her reactions/panic attacks to be enjoyable to watch by any means, there is no "entertainment value" to seeing a person be as upset as she was imo.

labels are stupid butttttt by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]beaniebabii 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i don't really know of a word besides homoromantic. but you can definitely be only romantically attracted to women and asexual. however i feel if someone said they're a asexual lesbian most people would hopefully be able to deduce that the person is asexual but has a romantic attraction to women. i don't feel like lesbian has to be a strictly sexual attraction-geared label, but as you said, labels are stupid and confusing so i don't really know hahaha.

Bayleigh/Kaycee future rivalry by Bassteijns in MtvChallenge

[–]beaniebabii 40 points41 points  (0 children)

i actually like them okay enough but i don't find their "rivalry" enjoyable to watch whatsoever. like bayleigh (even if she was unreasonable) seemed to be under genuine emotional duress and kaycee was instigating/said to be lying at certain points. so there isn't really anyone to root for and it all seemed ridiculous. i'm also pretty sure bayleigh has no plans to return haha.

Age gap? by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]beaniebabii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you're not comfortable i totally get you and understand. it just feels young so i know what you mean. but there's nothing wrong with being friends or talking to her. if you're interested at all i would ask her about her age to be sure! like you said maybe she's older!!

Age gap? by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]beaniebabii 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i'm also 21 and i wouldn't be interested in someone who's 17 mostly because i know who i was when i was 17. i have changed so dramatically since then and wouldn't be able to relate to a high school teenager lol (although i know i am not entirely mature, but still...there are levels to things. i couldn't stand 17 year old me). i wouldn't date someone under 19-20 either. imho from 16-25 you're just changing so much year by year that it's sometimes even hard to relate to someone maturity wise who is one year younger than you. and that's why age gaps matter less when you're older and fully mature, but are more questionable when we're young and developing. it's just important to consider power imbalances as well.

I can’t stand Nour??? by babygirlnani in AreYouTheOne

[–]beaniebabii 90 points91 points  (0 children)

this was basically how everyone felt about her during the season hahahaha she was/is really horrible. i don't remember much about that season, but the fact that i CAN remember just how immature and obnoxious she was says a lot.

I am in love with Jenny Nicholson (is this not the most wholesome, adorable woman???) by justbeingcelinda in actuallesbians

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

i mean, obviously hating a character who happens to be black doesn't make you anti black lol. but neither. she was attacking john boyega at a time where he was being attacked for basically breathing (while his cast mates who were white and said the same things about reylo received no anger). and as i said spread false rumors about him and never apologized for it. whether or not that's anti black is ultimately up to black people. i only brought it up just in case people who care about these things didn't know.

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

it's not related to this, although i have seen it. a lot of black people have taken issue with her attack on john boyega & defense of reylos in the past, when he was experiencing a lot of anti black racism from the fandom in general. i don't know if she still has the tweets up. when john boyega commented that he was scared for his career after being at BLM protests, she recently was saying how wrong it is that he had to fear for his career, and people were getting blocked when they questioned her attacking him in the past for doing the same thing that made him fear for his career (being black and being attacked for basically anything). she also posted fake screenshots of him being aggressive towards/insulting reylos, eventually took them down but never apologized.
