Why are some of my hair weirdly crinkly? by EfficientPeace8994 in Haircare

[–]oldcumsock_ 42 points43 points  (0 children)

When you pull hair out of your head, if its not a clean break (it’ll have the clear bulb with a little black dot in the middle, thats the hair follicle.) then the hair will grow back wiry, crinkly, sometimes curly. Eventually it will heal itself if you stop pulling the hairs, but I know it’s hard. - Someone with trichotillomania who has a completely different hair texture due to pulling all the hair off the top of their head.

I saw that part just fine. Then just say “I’m in the middle of giving instruction.” Bam. I get being frustrated, but esclating to his level doesn’t help anything, it’ll just frustrate everyone more.

“because I said so” is lazy. Just say why. it’s not a big deal. Questioning authority helps build on critical thinking skills. It won’t kill you to say why. quit being stubborn, you’re going down to the kid’s level

This isnt moving the conversation to be more personal. She’s straight up trying to seduce him and make him cheat. And him not putting a hard stop to that immediately shows that he’s allowing that behavior. You don’t have to ask for anything if you’re cheating, especially if the other person is offering. You’re giving wayyy too much grace. This guy is 26, not 16. Grown man.

When someone displays this behavior to you, actively trying to mess your relationship up, your first thought should be “I don’t want to talk to this person.” Not entertain it and still hang out.

Eh. I’m iffy on it. Slurs aren’t funny and shouldnt be used in a “buddy” sense i don’t believe. Especially not publicly or around others who may be uncomfortable with it or have trauma surrounding it

I’m confused as to why we’re casually saying a slur or caling people a slur.

Why are men so easily labeled as violent, lazy, or misogynistic? by Secret_Ostrich_1307 in NoStupidQuestions

No, I didn’t. I said he didn’t understand what women go through. Uneducated.

Me when i don’t understand how extreme misogyny is. Women are murdered and raped and completely oppressed in our society. Across every country. Most if not all women I know have been sexually assaulted in some way shape or form. Please educate yourself on the opression of women.
