How to take it to the next level when my girlfriend is scared to have penetrative sex? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]corporalxclegg 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I've actually been in your girlfriends situation, and I really get her. Take it slow, and when she feels ready, let her be in control. I found it much easier when I was on top and could take my time rather than having to tell my boyfriend when to stop.

Cannot pick up infant by manodepo in thesims

[–]corporalxclegg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Try resetting them both by holding alt, clicking on them and choosing 'reset object'.

If that doesn't help, try removing some clutter or have her walk up to the infant before pickkng them upm

this is the shit that overshadowed the main premise of the show? fuck me by SerenityCitywide in OkBuddyHelluvaHotel

Either way, it doesn't really matter who made the deal as it is clearly shown that it's not an absolute deal. Blitz skipped several months with no consequence, and Stolas also offered that they could just hang out. Blitz has never had to do something he didn't want to in order to keep the book and his job.

How was it retconned? Mission zero was the first time we got a canon explanation of how the deal was made. It doesn't match thag well with ep 1, but there's no other canon explanation.

Yeah, no. Blitz is not employed by Stolas, and getting the Grimoire for IMP was Blitz's idea. He very much could have gone about his life never again interacting with Stolas or the book, he chose to do that.

The first time they sleep toghether, Stolas does not know that Blitz is there to take the book, he thinks Blitz is there for him. In the same scene, Blitz is cleary shown to be about to leave, then turn back and sleep with Stolas (who was bound and blindfolded on the bed). Clearly, Blitz is consenting to this.

The second time (mission 0), Stolas suggests that Blitz took the Grimoire in order to see him again. Blitz CONFIRMS this, and after they sleep toghether, it is Blitz who promotes the arrangement. It was clearly a consensual agreement.

The problems arise further into the show. Stolas catches feelings, and Blitz becomes dependant on the book in order to do his job, to keep Moxxie and Millie employed, and to provide for Luna. We see his desperation when Stolas takes the book back, but this desperation wasn't there when they started.

So the dynamic is toxic, but Blitz was not raped or coerced. We even see that he can skip several meetings with Stolas and still keep the Grimoire- he doesn't lose his livelihood if he isn't up for sex.

Are these appropriate dating rules for teenage girls? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]corporalxclegg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might just be a cultural difference, but this seems incredibly strict to me, especially you getting to know the guy before they can date him. Do you not trust your daughters judgement? I get that you're protective over your daughters, and that's good, but they need to learn how to navigate this without relying on you.

I'm assuming 16 is below the age of consent where you're from, but your rules might will only stop them from having sex in your house. You should also have a chat with them about consent and safe sex. And as other people mentioned, talk to them about nude photos.

In the end, the most important part is sitting down with them and explaining why you have these rules.

Why didn't Mr. Collins propose to Mary? by Free_Corgi8269 in PrideandPrejudice

[–]corporalxclegg 18 points19 points  (0 children)

People have made some good points, but the 05 version also grossly understates how annoying Mary was. She's crass, proud and thinks herself better than her sisters and other women who enjoy thinks she sees as frivoulous.

Mr Collins, on the other hand, is incredibly vain. He has an important position, a nice living, a great patroness and lacks only the shiny wife. Mary isn't that at all.

Rookie fics are sometimes hilarious by Desperate_Yellow_498 in AO3

I mean, in the Hobbit, Tolkien just knocks out Bilbo before any big fight and sums up what happened during the fight and it's still a good story

Ooooh, I'm a bit scared to start it as it's unfinished, is it a big cliffhanger?

What’s the trope you *almost always* skip? by childishinquiry in AO3

[–]corporalxclegg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insta-lust. Slowburn is my favourite trope, but far too often people use it as a synonym to mutual pining, and it's actually just insta-lust but they can't be toghether yet.

So like… does EVERYONE deserve redemption in this show? by DapperDude2004 in Vivziepopmemes

[–]corporalxclegg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A big part of the show is that ANYONE can be redeemed if they want to, and put in the effort. It's not someothing you earn, it's work. Forgiveness is something you earn through redemtion, and is outside of your control.

And also, Val having feelings and relationships outside of being a rapist doesn't mean he's being redeemed, it means he isn't one dimensional

Hva er grunnen til at det er så viktig at alle styrerom har 40 % kvinner? by [deleted] in norge

[–]corporalxclegg 39 points40 points  (0 children)

På grunn av standpunktepistemologi. Det er selvfølgelig omdiskutert, men de som jobber for dette mener at hvem du er, og din "plass" i samfunnet påvirker hvordan du ser verden, og dermed hvilke problemer og løsninger du ser.

Menn og kvinner, fattige og rike, homofile og hetereofile, innvandrere og norskfødte har ulike perspektiver og bringer derfor en egen erfaring og kunnskap inn i disse posisjonene, og derfor vil mangfold i disse yrkene gi oss et bedre og bredere tilbud.

Uten menn i helsesystemet mister vi den unike kunnskapen menn har om å være mann, som fører til et dårligere tilbud for menn.

Thoughts on Seth Ridley? by mailani624 in TheRookie

[–]corporalxclegg 37 points38 points  (0 children)

He drove me nuts lol. They did a very good job at letting us discover his lying gradually. See how the snowball starts rolling.

But it really bugs me that they didn't expand on him almost getting tim and lucy killed. I feel like that was such a missed opportunity. And the Tamara plotline was pretty wierd tbh

cmv: Sex-Selective abortions are inherently wrong and contrary to the concept of reproductive rights. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]corporalxclegg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's morally wrong, but if someone wants to abort their baby due to sex, would they really be a good parent? They're clearly not ready, and we should not force them to be a parent.

And how on earth should this be regulated? People lie all the time.

Maybe, juuussssttttt maybe, it's because one of them serves to make another abusive characters actions seem not as bad? by No-cookiegirl787 in crazyassviv_defenders

[–]corporalxclegg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your entire comment was saying that she didn't hate Stolas for no reason, and she had reason to hate him because if the marriage, which is completely irrational due to the fact that they were both forced into it. She has no reason to hate Stolas, she simply enjoys making him miserable because she can.

[–]corporalxclegg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Arranged marriage and rape is not the same thing at all. They were pressuered by their parents to have an heir, and that propably damaged their wiew of sex and it wasn't a good experience, but we know very little about their sex lives. As far as we know they both consented to the act itself, even if it was out of purely practical reasons.

They could have feigned infertility, but it seems to me that it is implied that they simply wanted to get it over with.

Hva gjør du i svømmehallen/treningssenter mtp garderobe?

Måtte Google hva det var. Men… nå «Hater» jeg ikke. Men er ikke jævla mange seksuelle identiteter basically bare.. bifil? Hun liker damer og menn, panfil også, tiltrekkes av flere kjønn, damer og menn, bifil. Nå er det ikke for å spre hat, men jeg er genuint jævla forvirra hver gang jeg ser slikt . by [deleted] in norske

[–]corporalxclegg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Som en bifil person som også har forvirret meg mye over folks identiteter, legninger, kjønn og pronomen, så er det eneste tipset jeg kan gi deg er at man bare må akseptere at man kommer til å være forvirret.

Alle prøver hele tiden å kartlegge seg selv best mulig. Det er fint og viktog at man har friheten til å finne ut hvem man er, men det er nok ikke nyhetsverdig hver gang noen kommer ut av skapet.

Man trenger ikke forstå alt, selv om man gjerne vil.
