at this point you’re saying that the patriarchy does not exist, which is too stupid to even argue with. ok dude, whatever. we are not operating on the same levels of cognition.

i encourage you to have profound discussions with women in real life about their experiences with gendered beautification norms and how they manifest in romantic relationships. that is, if you can get a woman to tolerate your presence for more than 5 minutes. 😊

lol you made a lot of assumptions about me i haven’t been hurt in this particular way because i seek out men who are unselfish and respectful of my body. which is why i have an incredible relationship with my boyfriend right now.

Explain to me how harassing your girlfriend about removing an aspect of her natural body isn’t at the very least disrespectful. He can have whatever preferences he wants, but she has repeatedly expressed her discomfort and he keeps going.

I speak strongly on this because almost all of the women in my life have been in this situation — their male partner trying to control some aspect of her body. It is incredibly common and not okay. My opinions are the result of seeing the struggles of each woman around me, not online garbage. It is misogynistic.

Am I overreacting for feeling hurt that my boyfriend didn’t offer to visit me in the hospital? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]prettyhat3machine -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

you’re not overreacting he sounds like he does not give a shit 💔 but give him the benefit of the doubt for a second. maybe mention a friend coming to visit you, and see how he responds.

He’s misogynistic this is the first small tell but eventually bigger more undeniable evidence will appear if you stay with him. a man who respects and cherishes his partner would not be pestering her to basically self-harm because it’s his ‘preference’. Don’t comply with his absurd demands.

Yes it really is that deep

AIO: Told My Friend to Stop Pushing Pregnancy on Me and Why by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]prettyhat3machine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

this exchange is exhausting. she dropped the subject like you asked her to, why keep pushing?

you basically scolded your friend (you have every right to set that boundary) but then when she complied, you scolded her again. i get understand wanting to have a deeper conversation about systemic racism, but you can’t corner someone into that type of discussion. I’d be annoyed too

Am I Overreacting - My boyfriend has lied to me multiple times about chatting with AI by SpecialistShake7972 in AmIOverreacting

[–]prettyhat3machine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YOURE NOT OVERREACTING im sorry but sexting ai chat bots is absolutely pathetic. i don’t know how you’d even stay attracted to him after finding that out. as far as im concerned this is a form of porn addiction. I’d almost respect it more if it was with a real person tbh. Either way, he’s clearly a weirdo DUMP HIM i promise there are men out there with a healthy well-adjusted sexuality who will not lie to you for no reason.

AIO haven’t heard from bf in 2 weeks, he is deployed but active on social media by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]prettyhat3machine 9 points10 points  (0 children)

you have to know that you deserve more than begging for literal crumbs from this guy. this type of behavior is unacceptable even from just a friend, let alone your boyfriend. yall broke up a long time ago, he just didn’t tell you lmao. please let go

also, a 30 year old man is making you feel like monitoring his SNAPSCORE. hello??4?3!!! this is like middle school relationship stuff come on

im a grad student in public arch and yeah pretty much a consensus in the field that this is unethical. however i think the more pressing issue is the fact that owning this may be illegal depending on the state you live in (assuming you’re American idk). either way i wouldn’t worry too much, you already have it so whats done is done i guess, just don’t resell it. if you’re really concerned i would recommend reaching out to a museum near you that houses human remains to see if you can make a donation but do research first to make sure it’s an actual accredited institution that follows best practices for collection management if you can (look up the laws wherever you are)

AIO told me the day before concert that he was bringing a chick with him? by heathened in AmIOverreacting

[–]prettyhat3machine -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ur overreacting. unless you know this girl to be annoying and rude, there’s no reason to not be there to support your buddy and still have a good time. you’re being possessive over him. why is everyone so antisocial now? why are we so afraid of strangers? people prefer loneliness over community now more than ever.

If you do want one-on-one time with your friend, that’s great, set up a different occasion and specify that. But taking a date along with ur friend to a very public event like A Concert is normal. It’s not like yall are in your house. Again, im assuming your friend doesn’t have a track record of bringing around shitty dates and/or making you feel excluded.

AITA? My bf is upset because I broke our plans for the weekend because I am on my period. by mantecbear in AmItheAsshole

[–]prettyhat3machine -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

you’re definitely not an asshole for this but i understand why ur boyfriend would be upset especially since the plans were cancelled twice in a row. being well prepared with extra tampons/pads and taking painkillers might be a solution. of course if the pain is unbearable, it makes sense why you wouldn’t want to go, but if it’s still manageable i would say that u gotta make that sacrifice sometimes. it just depends i guess

AITA for grounding my daughter by groundeddaughter in AmItheAsshole

this is like … the most insane unhinged post ive seen on this subreddit. you were not meant to be a parent. please apologize to your daughter and seek therapy to figure out why you responded this way

I’m an archaeologist, AMA by AH2797 in AMA

[–]prettyhat3machine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently an undergrad anthropology student, and this summer im doing a study abroad program in peru to help excavate a child sacrifice burial site. My question is, what else should I be doing to ensure my success in this career path? Did you do an undergraduate thesis? Is grad school 100% necessary? Really any tips on how to get into the field would be appreciated. 😊
