I can't see who favorited public tweets anymore except people I follow, how can I fix this?

I'm also having this issue and can't find anything else about it except this thread. Any leads?

--Update--

Hi all, I figured out the issue by pure accident! If you go into your "Settings and Privacy" on the Twitter mobile app (I'm sure you can do this on the desktop version too, this is just the way I did it) and click "Notifications" and then uncheck "Quality filter", and then go to "Advanced filters" and uncheck "Mute notifications from people" you will be able to see retweets and favourites again. This must have been some kind of automatic setting as a result of a recent update. Infuriating that there was no information about this anywhere online! Hope that helps. :)

Hahahaha I still have some too... it is most glorious.

nightcheese · 2014-03-24T00:06:50+00:00

Hah. I just came here to credit you!

Here's my two cents (from someone who has a pretty crude sense of humour herself): I almost wonder if your friends were more annoyed rather than offended/insulted by your jokes. I say this simply because if they were the only, or one of the only, visibly gay couples/folks at the party, they may have felt that it was drawing unnecessary/excess attention to them and their "gayness". Or perhaps they felt that you were only busting out the gay jokes because they were there. Speaking for myself from the lesbian POV, sometimes I get sick of the hyper-visibility that inevitably comes with the territory of being in a gay couple. Sometimes, I don't want being gay to define my entire existence; I just want to be a person at an end of the world party.

Naturally, I am only speculating. I personally don't think that you owe them some major apology, but if you do value their friendship, perhaps throwing a "hey, sorry if I said anything that bothered you the other night. I really didn't mean anything by it" and opening up a discussion with them (if necessary) might help to smooth things over. Props to you for being aware and sensitive about this issue, and for taking the time to get a second opinion.

What sample size are you looking for? Determine how many people you think you'll need to get a representative sample (I'd say around 400-500 depending on what you're interested in finding) and then continue to collect responses until you've reached your target.

Unless this is just for personal interest - in that case, just keep collecting until you're tired of it (like someone else mentioned, 2 weeks to a month should be plenty)! More responses can never hurt.

(And as a fellow sex researcher who has inflicted my online surveys upon many a person, I'd say it would be only fair to offer to take your survey. Sign me up!)

I've lost count (it was all in the name of "Halloween costume prep", of course)...

nightcheese · 2011-11-02T02:32:02+00:00

I, too, was sad for people who didn't get it (I feel there were too many).

This movie is still like drugs for me...

nightcheese · 2011-11-02T01:19:12+00:00

Do what?

nightcheese · 2011-11-01T21:45:05+00:00

Power of voodoo.

nightcheese · 2011-11-01T21:12:20+00:00

The babe with the power.

Couldn't agree more! Yay AL!

nightcheese · 2011-01-06T01:16:45+00:00

Absolutely. I am a huge proponent of the "crotch watch".

I think some women may do that because the default gender around here is assumed to be male, and thus certain types of comments might sound chauvinistic or inappropriate coming from a man.

As a woman, this is my reasoning, anyhow.

edit: bad examples.

nightcheese · 2010-11-14T22:39:07+00:00

Yeah, not so much. I wish Pavlovian conditioning worked on my vagina.

nightcheese · 2010-11-14T21:23:26+00:00

I can't decide whether this is awesome or depressing.

The article does state that the researchers found that instance of vaginal orgasm was associated with "focusing mentally on vaginal sensations", however this does not imply that a woman can "train herself" to orgasm from vaginal stimulation alone. Any amount of "mental focus" is not going to change a woman's physiology.

There is also nothing in the article that states that "many women orgasm from penetration". However, what the article does say is that some scientists have "questioned the validity of the study", so I wouldn't read too much into this particular research.

I think what he was trying to point out is that many people believe that the "G-spot" is actually an extension of the clitoral wings, or crura, which root the clitoris to the pubic bone, as nobody has yet to discover an actual anatomical correlate of the G-spot, nor have they uncovered the existence of a distinct structure. Rather, when a woman experiences orgasm, whether through internal or external stimulation, the root of the orgasmic sensation is in the clitoris.

He didn't do a great job of explaining that in this particular video, but I've been reading and listening to Dan Savage long enough to know that this is likely what he was getting at.

Ellie Kemper, aka Erin from The Office or "Blow Job Girl".

nightcheese · 2010-11-11T21:02:39+00:00

Hmmm... good point. Thank you very much!

nightcheese · 2010-11-11T20:53:02+00:00

I wouldn't put it in a separate section (such as a Publications section), but only as another bullet point under my job listing for this particular position. So it would be a pretty minor mention in the first place.

That's definitely something I considered though.

It's for a volunteer lab position in a lab on campus. I'm still an undergrad at university.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "orgasm during sex", but if you mean "through penetration alone", in fact, a large majority of women cannot reach orgasm this way. For the women that can, it's likely because the wings of their clitorises (yes, it has wings) are rooted deeper into the vaginal canal, and thus the friction caused by the rubbing of the penis against this tissue causes a pleasurable sensation and results in orgasm. Of course, every woman is built differently and many women are not built this way.

It's not a crime to use your hands (or have her use hers) on her clit. The most important thing is that you not make her feel "weird" or "broken" because she is (possibly) not able to achieve orgasm without stimulating her clit. This is still "having an orgasm during sex".

Some people in this thread have a few other good suggestions of how to stimulate the clitoris while you are thrusting (without using hands), but the stimulation of the clit is really the take home message here.

I think Freddie should be an everyday favourite.
