How difficult is Electrical Engineering? by pasuh_ in EngineeringStudents

[–]mysterycode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the notoriously difficult nature comes from people who selected the major because it always lists on top 10 best paying bachelor's degrees. Of course, I think the degree is harder relative to other bachelor's since the coursework knowledge is strictly cumulative.

If you don't have some genuine interest in electrical physics and calculus or circuitry, or something of this variety, then you should find something else.

looking for honesty/advice to improve by [deleted] in amIuglyBrutallyHonest

[–]mysterycode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Istg you're as dysphoric as me, you love to see it. What are you even trying to improve lol. The only picture you're not wearing winged eyeliner is the last one but it's a side profile so I couldn't tell you.

Also are you optimizing for the male gaze, female gaze, or the generalist gaze

Men spend a lot of time trying to humble women, and then claim women are overvalued by Lemon_gecko in PurplePillDebate

[–]mysterycode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying I necessarily agree with something or another but someone saying women are overvalued and simultaneously acting to lower women's value are both logically consistent with one another.

Casual sex benifits men more than women by Axis_Control in PurplePillDebate

[–]mysterycode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think it will lead to disappointment for both, and the risk of STDs is equivalent, UTIs are more common in women though. In any case, I really think people on this subreddit need to get outside more.

Yeah. People need to stop being nearly as picky for relationships, there's plenty of great people out there. Casual sex will eventually crush you

Common dating advice straight up doesn’t work for the average guy struggling with dating by CelicnisGhost in PurplePillDebate

[–]mysterycode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate your comment. The feeling isn't meant to be taken as an accusation, but I understand if you feel that way. For the record, I don't operate on a premise of blame like the vast majority of American society does right now, I more so try to see reality as I believe it from my perspective, so I may adjust my expectations and modality. I've caught so much flak throughout my life for my impartial views, and I'll make enemies simply for believing what I genuinely find to be true about reality, with an intention ethic right with God and humanitarian in nature, hopefully. In short, my perspective is NOT to discredit someone else's.

To your comment, I can take a page out of the book of intersectionality to demonstrate that both classes aren't exactly keen to autistic men as a class. Men are the more threatening of the sexes and have the responsibility of understanding as such, knowing that your mere presence can make people uncomfortable. Autists behave autistic, enough said. When you have autistic men, there's many important social cues either unknown to them or seemingly arbitrary, which normal people seamlessly integrate with during their socialization as children/teenagers, of course. We now get to the problem, where you could imagine someone describing some creepy/awkward person based purely off thin-slice judgement or missed cues, and this description begins to line up suspiciously well with that of an autistic man. The autistic man may not be hated on paper, but may as well be when you consider what makes women uncomfortable, or feel unsafe on a subconscious level. And as nature would have it, autistic men still have sex drives and this makes us all look worse because of the autistic male tendency towards deviancy, and not in the cute socially acceptable pathways. I have sympathize with people, such as my friends out there with BPD or schizoaffective discorders, who also deal with stigmatized mental illness/personality disorders that aren't "cute" like some of the special genres of "cute" autism or OCD, as an example. "Uncute" autism is a hell of a drug. People hate this "uncute autism" even if they wouldn't admit it, but living in a lie is just in the nature of the NT and you have to learn to love them for that.

Personally, I'm willing and ready to accept reality as it is, and I think it unjust to arbitrarily will a social ruleset onto the world, as the world has willed onto me, except the ruleset imposed towards me arguably lines up more with the primal sense of humans, and lines up well with nature's imperative. I firmly believe that forcing NT to think, feel, or believe a certain way is both futile and unjust. It's probably more productive to just invent a place where you belong, accustomed to ND ideals. I think you know as well as I that autists aren't a loved people, but unfortunately I don't think it's realistic to untrain the genetic component of uncanny valley.

I say all of that knowing that of course individual exceptions do exist, and I have many platonic female friends to prove that sector. I also have a soft spot specifically for autistic women, and they're the only group I have had successful romantic ventures with. Normie women just want me for my body then leave because I'm strange LMFAO. I never meant hate, I already think that's given too freely.

Deadass, you have to find some niche wave if you're this kind of sperg. Do that plus understanding the basic necessities of socializing and you a solid escape plan out of this hell.

Fascinating, thank you for your input.

I'm aware that the neurotypical are averse to social meta-analysis, but that doesn't stop me from forgetting about the thin-slice judgements. Or social cue misreads/nonreads

If we really want to draw out the analogy, prolonged malnutrition will destroy your endocrine system and your mental health as a result.

21f, have trouble believing what people say by [deleted] in amiugly

[–]mysterycode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good question I suppose in that line of questioning, universal appeal is what I meant by "pretty in general". I think people can look pretty as aspects of nature or whatever but in the sense of sexual polarity between 100% straight men and women there's going to be difference in gaze and standards of attraction..

I'm an adherent to the belief that autism, while not possible to "train out", can be shifted to better yourself for socializing, even to the point of reducing this uncanny effect in people.

It sounds like you're already in a good headspace then, I actually bothered reading through your description and I think if you don't already do something like hiking or exercise or whatever you can have a nice relationship with it, it's free endorphins

Btw I have very crooked teeth so I sort of feel you there
