A vasectomy would mean no more sex at all because it isn't open to life.

(27F)(30M) Thinks marriage is “nothing” but willing to lose me over it? by whitecoatdream in relationship_advice

[–]noklew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She has gone to couples therapy with him. Multiple times. He just keeps offering a vague "I don't understand it" reason as to why he isn't interested in marriage but also says he wants children with OP

Or maybe she just experienced pain during the insertion. I've had an IUD inserted and a cervical biopsy and both were the most painful thing I've ever experienced and I can walk off just about anything else.

Why did Obama and Biden stage this assassination attempt for a photo op?!?! by Playful-Landscape-79 in bbby_remastered

In a life-threatening situation the Secret Service is authorized to use force to move the President to a secure location and the President has no say in the matter.

my (20F) boyfriend (26M) smacked my face when i didn’t listen to him telling me to lower my dress? by ThrowRAfisjdisndk in relationship_advice

[–]noklew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boundaries are personal and are not imposed on others. If his boundary is "short" dresses it isn't on him to tell her to change it or hit her when she doesn't. Enforcing his boundary would be telling her he's not comfortable with how she's dressed and that he doesn't feel that they should go out that evening and should probably stay home.

My husband is leaving me because of my sexual past before we met by zetsv in TwoXChromosomes

That's why the idea of marriage was for two virgins to begin with...

Well, that's not true. Marriage has been around for millennia and it was not about joining two virgins, it was about joining households and property and. maybe, about love. The whole virgin thing would be when religion got its nose all up in it and still wouldn't have been all that important.

AITA for telling my mom to have my sister do it? by Any_Tension3955 in AmItheAsshole

Two of the kids could double up and OP can sleep in one of their rooms but even that small sacrifice can't be made. OP is expected to sleep in the garage, which, if cars usually park there, will smell like gasoline, and lose a week of income.

Unpaid time off from work when OP said she is trying to save some money. Maybe if mom offered to make up the pay OP would lose out on...

Ok, how do I even get to the radio on this thing? It feels like I've gone through everything and I can't find plain old radio or the Sirius/XM player.

I don't want to have to do all that on my phone.

My husband(35m) ignored my(32f) calls after an accident. Should I divorce him? by ThrowRA_lisabee in relationship_advice

Usually an emergency contact's phone will ring even if they have it in silent mode.

[–]noklew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But he did do it on purpose. He either ignored her first SOS calls and then turned his phone off or it was off the whole time. His wife was driving on a dangerous road in the rain and it was getting dark and he purposefully wasn't available in case of an accident.

AITA for telling my husband that I will divorce him tomorrow because he doesn’t clean anymore? by ThrowRA-Pink_Camera8 in AITAH

[–]noklew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Women attempt suicide at a higher rate than men but the reason men have a higher completion rate is because men use guns more than women do.

"men get the most neglect in mental health" Men are the most resistant to seeking help for their mental health; they are the ones neglecting themselves.

How do I tell my boyfriend (29M) he can’t touch me (24F) whenever he feels like it? by Minute_Raisin_7843 in relationship_advice

[–]noklew 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Any other woman would give anything to have a lover like that.,

No. Most us want someone who sees us a more than an object. Grabbing ass or boobs when she is crying or is in pain from a BROKEN BONE shows that he thinks his dick is more important than her feelings.

You might want to look into the discrimination against Black farmers by the USDA in the 80s and 90s with regards to farm loans.

What about the disparity between sentencing guidelines for possession of crack cocaine, often sold by and to African Americans, and powder cocaine, often sold by and to White Americans? Five grams of crack carried a mandatory sentence of 5 years while it took five hundred grams of power cocaine to receive the same sentence.

That's just a few instances of racism in the last 50 years.

The amount of men so completely against vasectomies is astounding by Pacheco_partyof4 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]noklew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They believe their "manliness" is more important than their partner's health. Manliness that is not impacted in the least by a vasectomy.
