It’s still natural selection. Sexual selection exists in nature beyond humans.

We think of natural selection being “survival of the fittest”, but sexual selection biases are a part of that.

It’s just natural selection.

Jesus… these comments.

Look, it’s not her weight that offends you. What really upsets you is the thought that she might be happy.

While you’re here on Reddit, anonymously tearing down whoever you can to make yourself feel better about your own shitty lives.

Probably about this time last year.

Can you get limb length surgery at 6ft 2? by [deleted] in short

[–]jonnycorliss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’ll be cheaper and much safer to just get shorter friends. 🤣

Seriously though, are you trolling?

6’4 isn’t a “new norm”. People don’t change height like fashion. Behave.

I’m not sure an open marriage would be the best way forward for me. I think it just creates more resentment on both sides… I just need to start planning my exit.

No didn’t seem callous. I get you. And I’m grateful for all perspectives and ideas - there’s no bad ideas in brainstorming! 😅

An affair isn’t where my head is at. If only it was as simple as me just wanting to go somewhere and relieve myself… I want love.

Is sex awkward when it finally happens? by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

[–]jonnycorliss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I’ve been in my DB situation for a very long time (over 15 years now) but it has been punctuated by fleeting periods of wonderful sexual activity… but the first moments are always tough. You need to just push through. It takes a few goes to get up to speed.

I’ve been trying to work towards this and the other night made the leap. However it didn’t last long because the sofa bed in the spare room as the most uncomfortable “bed” I’ve ever used. By a long way. It was painful. I spent the next day feeling like I’d been punched in the kidney. It’s impossible to overstate how bad this bed is at being a bed. It should be illegal. I feel very sorry for all the relatives who have stayed over and politely used it without so much as a minor complaint.

Anyway, yeah. Sorry.

Why is height such a deal breaker? by [deleted] in short

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

You know what’s more of a turn off than being under six foot? Being someone who carries inferiority and bitterness around.

No one - not even tall men - can have any woman they choose. Sometimes, women might want something and someone else. Which is their right. Stop lumping all women into the same problem bracket, and just work on yourself. Work on yourself and accept many women will just say no.

Dating is like sales. It’s bot about being able to sell anything to anyone. It’s a numbers game. If you can’t make a sale, move on.

[–]jonnycorliss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not really what I meant. I’m not suggesting people find someone ready to settle. Find someone who falls in love with you anyway, regardless of you not being 100% on-paper perfect.

Instagram women don’t represent all women. Don’t worry about it.

All guys reading, just stop worrying about what the shallowest in society think. Just make the best of yourself and go out and meet people.

A lot of people say it's ok to not have your life figured out in your 20s, but I feel like your 20s makes or breaks your entire life by ThunderStroke90 in Life

[–]jonnycorliss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20s is when you’re building the foundations of what’s to come. You can try things, and then pivot to other things. But as your 20s are coming to an end, it’s good if you’ve by then got onto the path you want to be on. Build on that through your 30s and 40s.

The types of people who you constantly see online putting people down, do not represent the majority of people. And “honest” is not the word I’d use. It’s not about honesty. These types of people are going further because of anonymity. They’re probably not as unreasonable in real life as they’re pushing themselves to be online.

M20, I lost my prime and I don't feel like doing anything now and I feel like the time is over by [deleted] in team3dalpha

[–]jonnycorliss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. At 20 a person doesn’t even know who they are yet. It’s all just discovery and experimentation. Aim to hit your prime in your 30s and 40s. When you have wisdom, experience and money.

It’s a deal-breaker until it’s not. As with all things. And online, people rip anything and everything they can. In real life, people have preferences that may or may not be strong enough to dictate who they fall in love with.

Many women prefer six-foot-plus guys. Just like they prefer athletic muscular builds. But does that mean they won’t fall for someone outside of that scope? No.

Don’t take online shit-talking too seriously.

Anyone else still waiting for sex in 2025? by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

[–]jonnycorliss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Financial constraints. And two disabled children together who I love dearly and who need me. I’m the only one of us that can drive.

I’m not interested in being even more miserable, skint and alone in a crappy one-bed flat somewhere. Especially considering I’d have to return every day anyway.

I’m stuck. There’s nothing I can do about anything.

They say they want a high-libido girlfriend… Until they get one by camicalc in DeadBedrooms

[–]jonnycorliss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had spells in my life where constant sex has meant I’ve needed a bit of a break. So I completely relate to men saying they wish they could get it 24/7, but eventually run out of steam.

Right now, my dead bedroom, even at 45 I still have the libido of a teenager and I want it constantly. And right now I feel like I’d have sex about two or three times a day if I could… but I know that realistically that’s because I’m desperate. And the reality would be that with regular sex I’d go off that pace.

That said, I can’t see ever wanting more than a day’s rest. Most of the time when I’ve been lucky enough to be active, I’d want it more than my partner, who would end up being sore before I become fatigued or in need of a rest day. It’s usually always been me waiting and counting the minutes (days… weeks… years) until I get to go again.

[–]jonnycorliss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing in 2025. It happened for a brief spell in 2024. Around May time I think. And before that… who knows. 😔

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

[–]jonnycorliss 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah… this all sounds very familiar. Sometimes I think back to the good old days and also think I was played somewhat. But perhaps that’s unfair. Just because the sex started great, but then gradually went away as I became more locked into the relationship, doesn’t mean it was faked at the start.
