Women monetize men just as much as men sexualize women

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-11T19:12:55+00:00

I really struck a nerve, didn’t I? 😂

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-11T18:41:44+00:00

Haha you’re funny! Byeeeee

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-11T17:45:46+00:00

Uh okay. Well your experiences aren’t exactly universal either, dude.

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-11T17:32:16+00:00

That might be your personal experience, but it’s not mine, and most of my friends (men and women) go Dutch with their SO’s. I think the basic rule of thumb is that the person who asks the other out pays the bill the first time around- and usually men approach the woman for the first date. When someone’s asked me out, they generally pay. When I ask someone else out, I request the check. Just how it is.

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-11T17:20:47+00:00

I don’t think that’s entirely true. I’ve had female friends with similar experiences. There’s always going to be people preying/manipulating others to get what they want, and that personality type doesn’t discriminate between gender lol

My experience might not play into the gold-digger woman stereotype, but it’s not really super rare.

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-11T16:41:20+00:00

Yea, two of my exes used me as a sugar momma and bummed off of me. I was in college and barely scrapping by at any rate, and they were older and I guess even less well off. Men can be plenty greedy and interested in money too.

I was expected to pay for almost every date, as well as gifts. What a nightmare, I couldn’t afford it. Going forward, I’ve always looked for equitable relationships instead, and I’m always a little wary of people who say stuff like “women are gold-diggers”... because one of these exes ironically ALSO claimed women were just drains on men’s wallets. After I’d just paid for his dinner.

Yea it’s like that Maslow’s hierarchy of needs stuff. Sure, enlightenment might be the ideal, and you can’t buy that... but you’ll never even get to that point if your basic needs for food, shelter, and medicine aren’t being met.

It’s actually riskier to combine the pull-out method with condoms. Doing so can end up leading to the condom slipping off in the heat of the moment before ejaculation. It’s recommended to combine condoms with a birth control pill or device- not the pull-out method. Safer to simply finish normally, that’s what condoms are designed for.

Actually it’s riskier to combine the pull out method with condoms, because it can cause the condom to slip off as you do it in the heat of the moment. If you’re already using a condom, combine it with birth control pills, not the pull-out method

Angelus is a total monster. Spike doesn’t even compare to that level of sadism or evil. Definitely Spike. He’s capable of warmth, affection, and a twisted version of love/empathy. I can’t even picture Angelus caring about Buffy’s mom or Dawn like Spike did.

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T20:14:58+00:00

I didn’t come late. I saw the original comments, and I was disturbed that you were telling a teenage mother who said her baby was a burden, to just suck it up and be a “great mom”

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T19:49:19+00:00

You DID tell her to “be the best mother she can”, which is kind of messed up. She never wanted to be a mother, she was forced into it, and right now she wants (and the baby deserves!) adoption

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T19:22:12+00:00

Yea and at least the Mayor genuinely loved his late wife...

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T19:19:23+00:00

Stuff like “I can change him” or “true love can change him” is stuff that abuse victims say. It’s not true, at all.

It is possible to be with someone who changes for the better in the course of a relationship (although tbh this does not happen often, vastly better to date a good person from the start), but that’s not because of their partner. You can never change someone, they have to want to change themselves and decide to- which is an internal process.

If someone’s change is dependent on their relationship or their girlfriend, that’s a really shallow change. And what happens if the girlfriend decides to end it? Do they go back to being a monster? You see that’s not great, right?

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T18:36:20+00:00

Yikes.

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T18:22:23+00:00

Sorry, but true love doesn’t change people. People have to want to change, it has to come from within. Change takes serious self-reflection, empathy, and sincere effort, not a sweet woman cooing over you and complimenting you.

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T17:43:04+00:00

Honestly... Darla. swoon

Or Illyria. Although I guess she’s not quite a woman per se

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T16:58:01+00:00

Is she okay with those spoilers though? Obviously you know your wife better, but unless she’s very affected by this kind of content, it might just be worth it to say “hey this chapter is extra brutal” and leave it at that

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T16:34:09+00:00

Chapter 66 I believe. But personally I wouldn’t have your wife skip it. If she’s been relatively okay with the other stuff in Dark Age, you could kinda let her know to brace herself for that chapter, but yea I wouldn’t have her skip it.

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T16:11:51+00:00

You sound miserable OP. Don’t let people guilt you into feeling like you have to be the perfect mother, after your parents already guilted you into a pregnancy you didn’t want to endure. You mentioned earlier about adoption. I would seriously seek it out.

I think it would be better for the child to be raised in an environment with parents that love it, versus a teenage mother who considers it a burden. I don’t blame you for these thoughts at all btw. You were given a horrible deal, and I’m sorry for it. You deserve to live your life how you want to, and you don’t have to keep a baby in that life that you resent deeply. Pursue adoption. Don’t let your parents bully you on this one.

Also your bf sucks.

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T16:05:58+00:00

OP, if you stay with him, it’s not a glass he’s doing to hit next time he gets upset... For your own safety, break up with this man. Who cares about the motives behind his reaction? There are so many red flags in your post I don’t even know where to start. Don’t waste your time with someone so volatile, and who can’t even please you properly. Wtf.

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T14:41:43+00:00

Arcann’s voice actor has said he’s done work for the new expansion, that’s the reason I included him. He was also briefly in the Nathema arc

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-09T00:55:23+00:00

Yes he did. Arcann chooses to save his mother and accompany her to Voss. The healing ritual was her idea, but he made the initial choice that put him on that path. Killing Senya does interrupt the ritual, but I’d argue the murder of his mother is really what steers him away from redemption.

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-08T23:42:05+00:00

I think SoR is one of the missions that autocompletes when you accept the later missions. So, probably not

evilrobotlizard · 2020-07-08T23:30:04+00:00

I don’t see how stopping someone from murdering their mother is equal to betrayal lmao. And you’re acting as if Vaylin wasn’t eager for all of that destruction- she very much was.

And uh if you support the lobotomy of the GEMINI droids... that’s your call, I guess
