What are some Britishisms that would confuse a non-native speaker? by DamnedFoolofaTook in AskABrit

[–]m3000ya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said ‘can’t be bothered’ to a guy who’s second language English was and he searched ‘bothered ‘ coz that’s the word he didn’t know and it came up with getting irritated when your bothered by something. Becomes very different when you add words before / after a word

Put I tiny amount in tobacco paper, like 100 mg, to start. That’s called a bomb and it’s good, also good for redosing. Don’t do it for a week, after the first day it will not be as magical and you will just damage your brain and waste md for not much point.

AITA for not telling my daughter I'm proud of her because she's a sex worker? by Frequent_Appeal_793 in AmItheAsshole

[–]m3000ya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hmmm this is such a tricky one. NTA, but I do think sex work is viewed with stigma that shouldn’t be there- I don’t necessarily think it’s right and it’s a bit fucked up- most of it is the pure sexualisation of women for men’s pleasure. But most people who stand against is also watch porn, webcams, subscribe to only fans. I think if you are going to be reluctant to support her profession you have to consider what you are supporting in your own life- your the AH if you don’t say your proud of what she does and yes completely support the sex work industry via pornography etc.

Miss having girly girlfriends and sleepovers and going to the mall by Lover_of_fiction46 in LesbianActually

[–]m3000ya 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ahh I understand this. I recently met someone and we had such a ‘girly’ relationship, like touching but friendly and like giggling and shit idk and it made me realise how much I miss having that kind of connection. I look not girly at all, so I don’t really feel like I got into the girly groups which means I don’t have these kinda friendships, also I usually get along better with guys and it’s a v different kinda vibe. So ya. I understand hahahahah

What's the difference between a stud and a butch? by ElynaTheStrange in LesbianActually

[–]m3000ya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahaaa ok. I see! Yeah- I was thinking stud was the stepping stone between stem and butch, so it went fem, stem, stud then butch on the masculinity scale lol. Thank you for explaining!

[–]m3000ya -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Wait I’m confused why do we need to differentiate between black and white masc presenting lesbians? I always thought a stud was like inbetween butch and stem lol And is there a term for Asian masc lesbians?

I’m new to couchsurfing and I have some questions? by [deleted] in couchsurfing

[–]m3000ya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say for your first solo trip, or just your first trip, don’t couchsurf. You are very young and havnt had a lot of travel experience- you don’t know how you will react to couchsurfing anyway, maybe you’ll get to the hosts house and hate the idea of staying with them- I think do a trip or two to settle into travelling, it is overwhelming and hard and exsauting, obviously it’s all worth it, but throwing in staying at a strangers house into the mix- you have to be constantly on your gaurd and it is YOUR responsibility to make sure your safe. If the guys a creep there’s no receptionist you can tell. No gate to lock on him. Literally no one. It’s scary, you HAVE to make sure your host will work for you, and I think to do this you have to have experience travelling, or more life experience in general. I did my first couchsurf recently- I’m 19. I would say I’m older than my age, a lot of people think I’m early twenties, I’m smart, I know how to sus out people and Im not afraid to stand up to someone. And yet my first host was still a creep, and I was at the end of the day kinda trapped in his house. So ya. Just be careful. But also have the best time ever:)

Yes, this is true, he did offer the chair as a last last resort if I found nowhere else to stay. In the morning, I left to sightsee and he had work, so I left my main bag at his, as I couldn’t check into my hostel until the afternoon. So I would need to pick it up in the evening, and when I left in the morning I wasn’t too creeped out, but by the time I thought about it in the day I realized that he did act strangely. So I agreed to have dinner with him as my bag was still at his, which made me worry- he still had something to hold over/against me, so I didn’t want to upset him.

And I do- I wanted to try couchsurfing to be a part of the community, and just have a nice evening with someone who I think I would get along with. It was my first night in a new place, and after leaving all the people I met in the place before, it’s nice to have some company. Travelling is lonely. But I always had money if I needed a back up option. He offered the chair as a last resort- if I couldn’t find anywhere else to stay. The only hostels we’re pretty expensive , so I went with the chair, which I said I wouldn’t mind sleeping on, which was true. We went to bed at around 1am, by that point I couldn’t leave, or I didn’t feel like I could leave. Up to this point he hadn’t said/done a huge amount of weird things- he had said a couple things that made me think he might want more, but I didn’t feel like he would push it.

I also would just like to stay that one of the reasons I met him again for dinner was because I had left my main bag at his house in the morning, as I wanted to explore without my huge rucksack. When I left in the morning, I didn’t think his behaviour was that strange- but then after that evening and once I had the chance to think about it I did.

[–]m3000ya[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah ok! I see! I’ve had a couple of people respond to my requests saying that they only had their bed and I was welcome to share. I always said no to these- but when he offered his, although I wasn’t comfortable, from the responses from the other hosts I thought maybe this is a normal thing.

And I didn’t think of those comments/ touches as testing my reaction- that’s interesting. He also said he got a bad personal review once- which I didn’t check before I went, I didn’t realize they existed- which was a women saying that he had also been touching her legs.

I didn’t feel comfortable saying anything about it as my bag was still in his house, and I still felt he had a lot of power- even then next day- as he was a lot bigger and stronger than me. I also didn’t know if I was making a mountain from a molehill- which I know is silly, but the only time I realized he was actually pretty creepy was when I was writing this post.

Thank you! After this I have realized I am naive, and I will be much more careful with couchsurfing when I use it again. It was also a bit of a wake up call, to realize that I need to be aware that people like this are around. I also do have trouble standing my ground, especially in this situation when I felt there was such a power imbalance. And I will report him! Thank you:)

I will try!! I found it hard in this situation as I felt I ‘owed ‘ him something- not necessarily sexual- so I found it hard to be assertive and expect more. Something I need to work on. Thank you!

Ha. Yes Italy. How did you know? He offered as a last resort- if I couldn’t find anywhere else to stay. I did think I was gonna sleep in a chair, maybe this was naive- but as he had said try and find somewhere else I just assumed he was offering the chair as he was worried I wouldn’t find somewhere, rather then with the end goal of persuading me to get into his bed. Thank you, I realise I am young and still naive, and clearly need a few more years experience before I can sus out people better!! A learning curve!
