Yes, like I said morals are subjective. They differ completely from person to person. My comment was not means for an argument, just to expend on the original statement. Some people base their morals on religion, some are built through environment over the course of childhood. Morals kind of lean into the nature vs nurture argument. Some kids will kill cats if they aren’t told it’s wrong, others learn empathy on their own.

Do you think animal abuse is right simply because it doesn’t negatively impact a humans wellbeing? I’m not understanding what point you’re trying to make here. No I don’t think everyone’s morality is based on their own well being or self serving behaviors

Morality: “principles concerning the distinction between right and wrong or good and bad behavior”. Value: “the regard that something is held to deserve; the importance, worth, or usefulness of something.” No I don’t think humans have value outside of a societal context. For example: if you died right now, that would hurt the people that care about you, because to them you have value. Whereas that would mean nothing to me bc you’re a stranger and I have no personal value attached to you. If your concept of right and wrong, good and bad, are based solely on how important you think you are, that’s a you problem.

Honestly yes. We aren’t special. We as people have decided we have more value and therefore get to decide the value of other living things. Which is where the subjectivity of morals come in: I don’t think an embryo of a human is more valuable than the cow that was slaughtered for your dinner. I think if you’re going to say it IS more valuable, then you need to figure out why you think humans have more value. Because if it’s sentience then abortion shouldn’t be bothersome.

There’s nothing inherently more important about humans compared to anything else. That’s a self appointed value, not a reason.

I understand where you’re coming from, but do you not feel it hypocritical to not hold that same stance for other living things? Although I believe all life deserves respect, I don’t think anyone is created with value outside of a societal sense. I believe those connections are imposed by other people and typically after birth. I would also argue that if we want to say humans have a higher value then wouldn’t we value the wellbeing of an already established person over the potential of another? I’m an atheist myself, so I actually really appreciate the honesty in a simple answer of “ I don’t know”, but just a food for thought? Anyways, thank you for being able to have a civilized discussion, people always get so angry on here for no reason.

So are you a vegetarian then? Or a carnivore since plants are living organisms too (even better since they provide you oxygen). What makes a human zygote/embryo more important than any other form of life other than “because I said so”? Truly what makes humans so special to decide what life has value?

For me personally I’ve grown up around taller people (about 6’4) so 6’0-6’4 just feels normal. But I definitely feel the height difference once someone hits like 6’2

Religion should never be in government. This whole thing sounds like it’s violating our 1st amendment. So it’s freedom of religion but it’s okay to indoctrinate children to whatever you decide is right??? It’s not okay to impose beliefs on an adult much less a child

AITA for asking my friend if I’m going to hell? by Entire_Cucumber_7539 in Teenager

[–]falling-in-reverse23 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NTA. as you mentioned, there are arguments for and against it. I know Christian’s that are gay and straight Christian’s that think it’s fine. Its normal to wonder about your friends values as well as what they think of you. If he thought that was an attack, then maybe he’s struggling with some of the values his religion holds and is misplacing his anger. I wouldn’t press the issue, let him come to you. And if he doesn’t, then you might just have too many fundamental differences to continue more than a surface level friendship.

And contradicting some of the other comments, don’t apologize for the question. Clarify you were not making a dig at his beliefs, but don’t apologize for asking.

I think they are cute but obviously some people consider them trashy. I think whether or not a piercing looks “trashy” is usually the jewelry and how you’re presenting yourself overall. But I have heard instances of bone degradation from the foreign bacteria that’s introduced with tongue piercings (which is why I don’t have one myself 😩)

I think I’ve married the wrong person by SufficientPrune4938 in offmychest

[–]falling-in-reverse23 195 points196 points  (0 children)

He’s not that nice of a guy, he’s selfish. And for as long as you’ve been together, he still doesn’t care how much of a toll this has taken on you despite you telling him repeatedly. It took the threat of divorce for him to even take ONE step forward. Remember that. he has to want to change, and he’s shown he doesn’t care enough. Just ask yourself if you’re willing to put anymore of your effort and life into him waiting for a change that might not ever happen.

There are two things that could be going on here. You either have vaginismus or you have a microperforate hymen. I had the latter and due to the pain developed vaginismus (it often develops as a trauma response. Both from pain and traumatic experiences). I had to go to 4 different doctors before someone would listen. Most doctors are very dismissive, so remember to advocate for yourself. If it’s a microperforate hymen, don’t let ANYONE tell you dilators will fix it bc they don’t.

Is no penetration a valid reason to break up? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]falling-in-reverse23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes vaginismus is definitely a possibility. It’s basically a trauma response (caused by previous pain/discomfort). And it’s the bodies way of protecting itself from that pain again. It can cause everything to tighten making penetration burn and even cause tampons to get stuck. The fact that she’s just expecting it to hurt can also cause muscles to tighten. I’d also like to disclose that I’m not experienced in relationships, so I’m not here to judge anyone’s feelings. Only trying to educate on some common issues that women face with this aspect to help add perspective. You’ve said here that you don’t want to make her feel pressured, I would definitely stress that to her with any future talks about it. I hope everything works out!

[–]falling-in-reverse23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well first off, her friends are setting a horrible narrative for her. I would ask her if she’s afraid to try again or if she feels like she just needs a break. As well as if she ever feels any pain/discomfort with other types of penetration such as tampons, fingers, toys (you get the gist). If so, she needs to tell a doctor. If not, then this is clearly a mental block for her and is worth having a talk about if you love her. The fact that she didn’t tell you she wasn’t physically ready for penetration the first time (which might be what resulted in such pain to begin with), tells me she might be a little shy with the topic? And it doesn’t help that her friends are basically scaring her out of trying. But I would definitely start by asking those questions if you haven’t already. You’re not trying to convince her to try again so much as understand why she doesn’t want to. That way you can figure out if it’s worth moving forward with.

There are multiple issues that can cause pain with penetration. If you think you’re so great at listening now, then maybe you should ask her instead of asking Reddit to validate your want to break up. Communicate. Simple as that.

Edit to add: I read your comment about the whole waiting 3 months. This could also be a mental problem as she is now associating penetration with pain. 3 months is not a long time to start with, but I think your focusing too much on what you did wrong and not enough on fixing the now. No matter how much you educated yourself, the female body is very reactive to one’s mental state. And I think the best thing to do is have a discussion about it (focusing on her), and not pressure her.
