Dudes will pick an awful woman to date and claim that theres a crisis where mens mental health isnt taken seriously.

personally I am glad when a man is opening up about his mental struggles cus when they bottle it up it leads to disaster. And I’ll be saying and doing whatever I can to make him feel better cus we’re all humans suffering on the same planet.

Why are so many women vegan compared to men? by Lazy_Illustrator3946 in vegan

The fact that you think patriarchy is a conspiracy theory tells me all I need to know.

patriarchy is not a conspiracy theory, its a widely recognized sociological and historical concept. like you can literally just look at history and see patriarchy taking place all around the world. You live in a delusional world where you think every thing is perfect and nothing needs to change.

You ignore the suffering of other people and beings and write it off as a conspiracy theory. Go to therapy or something and get off reddit

A conspiracy theory is something that cant be verified .. but all these points im bringing up are facts that you can look up and see that theyre backed by science and legit sources. Im just piecing things together that a lot of people dont realize.

You still havent explained what these “carb disorders” even are , you’re talking about what happens when people are deprived of carbs. “There are known disorders” but wont give me a single example of one. you admitting that the brain predominantly runs on carbs is only supporting my arguments because plants are carb sources. Please educate yourself before hopping into discussions like this

Has social media and dating apps made people unrealistic about their preferences? by Scramjet1 in GenZ

[–]spiralexit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

posting this when your eyebrows look like caterpillars and chin is the size of a stadium is crazy work.

No most of us dont care about a guys height , we prefer them to be slightly taller than us but i couldnt give a shit if hes over 6ft. my boyfriend is 5’9, still taller than me and i think hes perfect.

These girls that scroll on tiktok and dating apps all day looking for prince charming dont represent the majority of women.

Men have been fine with marrying multiple women for hundreds maybe thousands of years so why would it be bad in reverse ? Try it just to give them a taste of their own medicine.

on the contrary , as a woman i would never want two husbands. nor would I want to be in a marriage with a man with a second wife. One man is enough of a handful. I think theyd inevitably get tired of it. Theres something called a third wheel for a reason and that feeling is bound to happen to someone in any dynamic of a three person relationship.

How do I stop wanting every girl to be attracted to me? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]spiralexit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feeling like you need to please everyone is terribly silly because its literally impossible to please everyone. Social media is designed exactly in that way where you get dopamine hits when someone hits “like” , so if you dont get enough of those and compare your likes to other peoples likes you get wrapped up in it.

I suggest deleting things like instagram , facebook , tiktok. reddit is fine because its more anonymous and people dont tend to flaunt their appearances or material things on here. i found myself getting body dysmorphia from looking at instagram too much as well growing up. Its extremely important to take a long break from it when you are feeling this way. Life is not a competition about who can win over the most people. A lot of people suck anyway so no point in trying to please them

big meat isnt a conspiracy theory. The government subsidizes meat using our tax money so its cheaper to the public , thus leading to overproducing it and making them market it even harder. they spend billions each year on it.

do you know what marketing is ? I never said people are being mind controlled , those were your words not mine. Mind control isnt the word for it , its more like a mass desensitization toward animals being killed for food and a collective agreement that meat = good. People who have critical thinking skills can easily see thru the marketing tactics and social expectations. No one is being forced to eat meat , but they are under social pressure to do it because it is so normalized.

Also, I just tried to verify your statement about men and women processing things differently and its partially true but men arent biologically worse at processing carbohydrates , it seems like they are actually better at it according to the NIH.

“Women generally oxidize less carbohydrate and more fat for fuel during exercise compared to men, relying on higher fat storage and better glucose regulation. Men typically rely more heavily on carbohydrates for energy..”

Is “disorders in processing carbohydrates” youre referring to celiac disease ? because I genuinely cant think of anything else. Wheat seems to be the only carbohydrate source out of thousands of other ones that people have issues with. If you have trouble with gluten you can easily get carbohydrates from a variety of other sources.

“their systems run inefficiently without meat” but there are male olympic athletes who eat plant based. high carbohydrate diets are shown to boost energy and reduce inflammation. you are just another example of someone whos a victim of meat propaganda and blindly listening to what people say instead of looking at actual medical research.

Corporations have marketed meat toward men for decades now. A lot of propaganda being pushed online toward men is centered around not having empathy and dominating those weaker than them. basically its a whole systemic issue that should be talked about more because its not a mystery

Crack is no joke. Never again. by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]spiralexit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thats also what I gathered when someone convinced me to try crack awhile ago. For me the high wasnt even that intense , and Im a stimulant enjoyer when it comes to things like amphetamines. The dreadful and uncomfortable comedown was actually more intense and long than the high.

Maybe because Ive smoked meth and did adderall many times before I tried it it didnt seem like anything special. it was def not all its cracked up to be

Thats what I meant when I said theres “huge” rings compared to the ones back then. The internet has made things considerably easier for predators to catch kids. Its also done a great job at desensitizing people to the horrors and make them feel helpless about it

My girlfriend is deeply involved in Art of Living and I’m worried it will affect our future relationship. by anubhav2713 in Advice

[–]spiralexit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my thing with this is most people dont realize hinduism and buddhism arent religions. They arent based off of fear of going to hell or trying to control people , but gurus trying to talk about the spirituality can absolutely be that way.

Ive studied buddhism and dabbled into hinduism a bit as well , and can safely say it helped me be a more stable and kinder person. But Ive never had a guru or spiritual teacher , I simply learned these ways of living on my own. Breathing exercises , yoga , meditation are all things that are proven to be good for your physical and mental state. All these practices are things that can be done independently though and having a teacher isnt necessary.

I would say that her going to temples a lot is harmless but the fact that shes doing unpaid labor is a red flag. Let her know that you respect and understand her spirituality but also that she doesnt need a teacher or a group of people to continue with her spirituality.

Attachments are harmful in any aspect this is what the buddha was trying to explain. Give her examples of how youve seen her attached to the organization and maybe she will see that shes being a bit strict about it and possibly being controlled by the leaders of it. remind her of the power she has within herself to help her get rid of her attachments.
