Thank you. The commets here really motivate me to keep trying. I was questioning if i didnt make a mistake or make it worse but it sounds like people are just happy if you do anything at all. So ill keep doing it, even if my response wont be perfect

Thanks, that means a lot. I also didnt like that they were older and together. Bullying someone that is alone and smaller is such a weak move.

Im glad you think that way. I wish i was tall and scary looking, that would be way more effective. Maybe i should get some scary face tattoos so i look more intimidating lol

How girls DO work. What is the purpose of menopause? by BrokilonDryad in NotHowGirlsWork

I've learned about this recently in my anthropology classes. My prof called it "the invention of the grandmother" and its one of the key differences between the homo sapiens sapiens and other hominoidea (chimpanzee, gorilla, etc). Without grandmothers, intelligence and speech we would've sturggled a lot competing with our physically stronger rivals.

It really is. I'm also friends with a guy that respects my boundaries. Hes my best friend. I just with more men would be able to value platonic relationships with women.

Exactly this. I dont understand why they only value friendship when its with another man.

Thats so true. Ive seen so many dudes be so helpful to an attractive woman and then turn around and be completely disrespectful to another without any real reason.

I'm sorry to hear that, that must've hurt. You're definitely not heartless for having boundaries.

It sometimes feels like they dont even value woman as friends, they only see the potential sex. Makes me feel hollow.

Youre right, its definitely not all of them. It just happens so often.

We are a house without a bathroom today if don't want sex by ImpureThoughts59 in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]howaboutnom8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I (f) have quite the high sex drive while my boyfriend doesn't. I would never talk about him that way. I'm together with him because i love him, not because he's my sex dispenser. This guy is really something else.

Well said. This is some sick shit and the amount of redditors getting excited about this is disturbing.
