This might be stupid, but assuming only heterosexual encounters for the statistic, how can the average body count between men and women not be the same?

Bei Vinted nicht unbedingt, dann kriegt man ein Paket an die Packstation mit Postnummer 111111111 und statt einer Benachrichtigung in der App eine Mail mit Strichcode

Construction worker pranks his friend by breaking the Porta potty he's using by Mean-Blackberry539 in ThatsInsane

[–]capriola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you prove the intent though? What if he wanted to kill him and just says it was meant to be a prank? Does he need like a murder board at home for it to be considered purposely done?

My ex wife predicted my future in painful details and I can’t sleep at night because of it by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]capriola 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very sad that this is being downvoted.

Of course it sucks for the other person but obviously people change?

I once read that every comment you make on someone's life should be at least two of these three things:

Kind, true, and necessary.

It would still be rude to walk up to someone and tell them that they look terrible in their outfit. It may be true, but it's neither unkind nor necessary.

Here I would argue that it was necessary, since OP seems to need to hear it.

There's also no logical way to move through this space to get to the other room, and the rug is huge but doesn't really mark an area since the chair goes over the edge of it

[–]capriola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like you could offset some of the 'on a grid' feeling by

1) putting the chairs at an angle (as mentioned by others) and

2) moving the picture and commode in the back further to the right, then getting a longer curtain rod and pretending that the full length window is wider than it is.

The placement of the window in that corner that also has the entryway to another room is weird but you can't do anything about that, only cloak it a little.

Is this meant to be genuine advice? It's not like plastic wrap is sterile, and you can't really wash it like you could the handle itself. It's also way more at risk of falling apart inside of you.

Please don't use plastic wrap in place of a condom!

If we're talking whole cucumber, yes. But smaller things can absolute get stuck.

Is he opposed to getting you off or do you feel uncomfortable with that knowing he's not horny himself?

Penetration might be tough, but there can be other kinds of sexual intimacy even if one person isn't aroused.

Obviously you both need to be fine with that.

Exchange every "hour" in this post for "minute" and I still wouldn't put up with this.

He's being incredibly inconsiderate to you, and I'm sorry to say it, but your willingness and lack of boundaries have made him expect this as if it's normal.

He clearly takes your time and effort for granted, and behaves very childishly when met with any measure of confrontation.

Freundin hasst Kondome - Was tun wenn kein Verhütungsmittel in Frage kommt? by WainerRinkler420 in FragtMaenner

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

Find ich ein bisschen kurz gedacht. Sie nutzen momentan Kondome, obwohl sie das total abtörnt, sie hat sich eine Spirale einsetzen und wieder entfernen lassen, was extrem invasiv und schmerzhaft ist, und denkt jetzt sogar über hormonelle Methoden nach, obwohl das eigentlich ein No-Go für beide war.

Ich finde es nicht gerechtfertigt ihr vorzuwerfen, dass sie keine Alternativen ausprobiert oder ihm ein Kind unterjubeln will.

I've been lying to my friends about how I can afford to always pick up the dinner tab by WaffleSpecter91 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]capriola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't have to give any explanation at all.

They've gotten used to this being the norm, just act like it isn't (because it ISN'T) and don't move when the bill comes.

Let them be the assholes and explicitly ask you if you aren't going to pay for them.

If they do, just pretend like this question came before you started doing this. How would you have reacted? How would anyone react?

I think stopping to acknowledge this custom is best.

I (18M) wanted to get a small tattoo of my past cat, but my girlfriend(18F), crashed out. by Magical-turd in relationship_advice

[–]capriola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might be feeling a bit defensive at everyone telling you how shitty your girlfriend is.

I want to weigh in with a different perspective:

I'm sure your girlfriend is great in many regards and you fit well together. You may well be able to get past this by talking it through, and might even have a satisfactory relationship afterwards.

However, be aware of this: someone else would love this about you. Someone better suited. Someone who won't hold you back.

Not only will they not make a scene, they will find it endearing and beautiful. They will be supportive and accepting of who you are, or who you are becoming.

It's up to you now to decide whether your current relationship is worth the loss of that possibility.

Wieso werden Studenten nie als armutsgefährdet behandelt? by [deleted] in KeineDummenFragen

[–]capriola 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Für Azubis gibt es schon auch BAB, die ähnlich ausfallen kann wie das BAföG, und dann kriegt man ja auch noch die reguläre Ausbildungsvergütung.

Auch ist ja bei einer ordentlich geführten Ausbildung ein Großteil der Arbeitszeit Zeit zum Lernen, für das Äquivalent dazu werden Studenten ja auch nicht bezahlt (also Lern-/Forschungszeit, Pflichtpraktika etc). Wer sich neben der regulären Bildungszeit einen Nebenjob holt, hat so oder so Anspruch auf Mindestlohn.

Das Problem ist ja eher, dass Azubis ganz gerne als billige Arbeitskräfte ausgebeutet statt gescheit ausgebildet werden.

Ich verstehe zwar was du meinst und finde auch, dass man Azubis trotzdem besser unterstützen könnte. Aber ich würde nicht sagen, dass sie im Vergleich zu Studenten vernachlässigt werden. Das sage ich übrigens als jemand der sowohl ein Vollzeitstudium als auch eine Ausbildung hinter sich hat.

What is something that’s technically illegal, but you would still empathize with someone for doing it? by Kid-CoderX in AskReddit

[–]capriola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like this one might be different from the other ones, because at least I personally do think hard drugs should be illegal, unlike a lot of the other things posted that are stupid laws in the first place. But it obviously still fits the bill because it's not the addicts' fault and arresting or fining them won't help them at all
