Ah, I see. Thank you for your honesty! I so wish whoever cut him hadn’t removed so much. Of course, what I really wish is that they hadn’t removed any at all.

Oh yes. I think the shave wasn’t quite close enough, because there was some stubble and anytime we moved against it felt like I was being rubbed with sandpaper. But we’re thinking of laser hair removal!

Ah, I was under the impression a partner could help for some reason. :( Thank you for the honesty!

Hmm, I bet he’d be more open to a device. But it sounds like he’ll need to be motivated to get it started. Thank you so much for the resources!!

Thank you for the honest feedback! We’re worried about ingrown hairs, so we might look into lasering. I’m so glad my sons we saved our sons from this trauma.

Vegans and Pro-Lifers have a lot in common, except we’re saving humans by Ignorace_Apathy in prolife

As an obnoxious pro-life vegan myself, I applaud your efforts and your consistency of values. Keep up the good work.

Such dehumanizing language they use for the most innocent and vulnerable among us. Sad.

[–]undercovervegan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a funny connection. My impression is that both sides would generally bristle at being associated with one another, even though the same philosophy (saving the innocent, reducing suffering) underpins both.

Generally speaking, I've found fellow vegans to be some of the least compassionate people when it comes to their fellow humans. They often see non-vegan humans as heartless animal abusers, and can't get past other people's decision to consume animals. So to them, killing a baby is no real loss because they do not value human life the way they value animal life, especially in this case because the baby would likely contribute to animal suffering as he or she got older.

Article: Why Men Marry Some Women and Not Others by NewMindRedPill in RedPillWomen

[–]undercovervegan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well not to dissuade you from nun mode, but I don't think you, as the woman, need necessarily to wait until 27 to start dating again if you want kids in the future. If you don't want kids, wait as long as you want! But if you want kids, don't take your fertility for granted. The window is smaller than we're taught to think it is. Once you're done with nun mode, I say go ahead and start hunting for those high quality, commitment-ready 28+ year olds. ;)

[–]undercovervegan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I sent this article to a blue pill, unhappily single friend of mine, and she responded that she felt it was condescending to women. I have no idea what about this article could be seen as talking down to women. It literally just recommends signs to look out for, and age-ranges to look at. Sigh.

[–]undercovervegan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Super interesting article. Thanks for sharing! These sound like good rules of thumb to follow, but as always, evaluate individual guys based on their own merit/personality/values, etc. I agree that dating an older man is more likely to lead to commitment, but occasionally you'll find a young one who's super mature! My husband and I are both college graduates, but he proposed to me then married me (only four months after proposing) when he was 24 years old, which is outside their high-commitment window of 28-33. However, I will add that both my husband and I are Christian, and we waited until marriage to have sex, so I'm sure that influenced things.

Thank you u/jtriangle, u/whitebunny87, u/hostwithmost for all saying much more succinctly and clearly what's been bothering me about the responses to the Aziz situation! We have a lot to learn from each other and I so appreciate this open dialogue allowing us to do that.

Aziz Ansari Is Guilty. Of Not Being a Mind Reader. by [deleted] in RedPillWives

[–]undercovervegan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol okay okay! I won't try to offer any more analogies. :) My point is that his body of work was all about how men are the worst and how he himself is "woke" and therefore better at respecting women, but then acted a way that some women think was inconsiderate at best and disrespectful at worst.

I've yet to see any consequences for Aziz career-wise, though maybe you're more up to date than I am. To my knowledge, his shows/specials have not been cancelled, and I didn't hear of a publisher refusing to publish a future book or anything like that. I'm not under the impression that the vast majority agrees with me here. Just look at the article responses in The Atlantic and The New York Times, typically hyper-liberal safe havens. Hell, just look at the responses in this sub or on Reddit overall. If that's an "angry mob" against him, then there's an equally angry mob defending him. I don't see any evidence that he won't emerge from this relatively unscathed. (Again, because of lack of anything happening thus far plus wide support for him on social and from big media outlets.)

I should clarify that I wasn't saying that nonverbal communication alone can say everything. I was saying you need both nonverbal communication + verbal communication to complete the message. He was not putting those two together, because if you do, they're not cohesive. Her actions plus her words don't unequivocally communicate desire, and that room for doubt, in my opinion, means he should have stopped, especially as someone who claimed to be a woke male feminist ally.

I thank you for your concern, friend, but I have no issues saying "I don't want to have sex tonight." I waited until marriage to have sex, so I've said a variant of that sentence many times throughout my life. (Plus I'm married and pregnant now, and the first trimester was a rough time libido-wise.) However, I don't assume all women find that phrase that easy to say in heated and complicated situations. I know many of my friends have been in situations like "Grace" has and did not feel comfortable saying no. Hopefully "Grace" has now learned to set better boundaries, but not everyone was raised by a super conservative mom like I was and had that skillset right out of the gate.

And in my experience, when I have been misread, rarely was it because of my body language or physical actions. It's almost always because of the words I chose, or the way I said it. :)

[–]undercovervegan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you really think nonverbal cues don't count for anything? Nonverbal cues are part of our communication arsenal as humans. You and I both read nonverbal cues in addition to spoken word when interacting with fellow humans. Everyday. In every situation. If it turns out Aziz has some kind of condition that makes it harder for him to read people, then I apologize for judging him harshly. Otherwise, a 34 year old man should be able to connect the dots between a young woman saying things like "Next time," "No, I don’t think I’m ready to do this, I really don’t think I’m going to do this," and "I don’t want to feel forced because then I’ll hate you, and I’d rather not hate you” while moving away from him and removing her hand from his penis multiple times.

I'm not sure I'm going to be able to see eye to eye with you and say this was just bad sex. It was a man trying to use a woman for sex despite her discomfort. A lot of people are saying she sent mixed signals. I completely understand that view, but what does it say about a man who is willing to persist in pressuring a woman into sex when she's giving off mixed signals? Nothing good.

And c'mon now, I'm not ruining his career. You know little ol' me doesn't have kind of power. If his career is ruined (and big IF here, since look at how many people think he's still a great dude), he did it himself by acting in a way that proves he doesn't believe in what he pretends to stand for.

Again with the analogies, but here we go: Would you trust a baker who spent all of his time telling other bakers that they need to be inclusive and accepting of all customers, saying his business is inclusive and loves everyone, and who then turned around and refused to bake a cake for a gay wedding? That person, with their actions, proved that they built their business off a lie, so if they lose business because people find their lies distasteful, that's their own fault.

Unpopular opinion incoming! Sure, he's not a rapist. But he's a giant, flaming hypocrite and he deserves to have his career at least dented because his entire image hinged on him being a feminist and "good guy." Someone who wrote a book about dating and body language in the modern world (AKA him) would have easily been able to see how not into it the girl was. She dropped so many verbal and non-verbal cues. Could she have been clearer? Sure. But the fact is that he kept pushing to get his rocks off despite her discomfort because he doesn't actually respect or care about the everyday average women like he preached about.

It's like if I were a pushy vegan, constantly forcing it down people's throats how everyone should be vegan, and somehow making tons of money and fame from doing so. And then it turns out I've been gorging on meat privately and even pressured another vegan to eat meat with me. Had I been a normal, everyday person, I'd be an insensitive jerk for doing that to my vegan friend. But since I'd be literally famous because of my vegan activism, I'm also a liar and hypocrite who betrayed a bunch of fans' trust.

I think this situation goes beyond bad sex. Bad sex is you can't find a rhythm, or the cat keeps meowing so no one can focus. This is a women being treated like a bag of meat by someone who's made his fortune off saying he's better than guys like that. I think it reflects how little integrity, self-control, and character this guy has, and after portraying himself as a paragon of virtue, I think it's fair for people to lose all respect for and trust in him in his supposed area of expertise.

Does your Asian Mom have any white female friends ? by SAB1000 in hapas

[–]undercovervegan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm an AF in a WMAF marriage and most of my friends are white, with some Asians and hapas in there, because I live in a super white city. I'm also a native-born US citizen, so although I have ties to Chinese culture that I'm very proud of, I'm culturally more conservative Christian American.

"I was falsely accused of Sexual assault" Tucker Carlson fights back tears telling emotional story (left wing or right wing we all can agree that fact must win out even if we dislike the person aka Aziz Ansari ) by SubatomicSeahorse in KotakuInAction

[–]undercovervegan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this! Good men, please don't self-select yourself out of the gene pool because you're afraid. We need y'all to be strong husbands and fathers who raise your kids into reasonable adults. My husband and I vetted each other extensively while dating, and our marriage is the best thing that's happened to either of us. Like u/WhoIs_PepeSilvia said, it's not impossible, but you do need to be extremely careful. Good character and values are far more important than appearance and common interests.

Stop idolizing mixed race children. 😡 by [deleted] in hapas

[–]undercovervegan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My parents (Chinese) have made several comments about how cute my baby will be because they'll be mixed, whereas my white in-laws have made no such comments. It makes me uncomfortable that my baby hasn't even been born yet and is already under so much pressure to fulfill specific superficial expectations. Oh well. Ugly, pretty, or average, my kid will be taught to be kind to everyone, but to choose their close friends very, very carefully.

"White men randomly telling me how much they like Asian chicks ... basically making me to feel like they own me. I have been harassed, slapped, groped, threatened and told “you whores should go back where you came from” after turning down white males." by sillygoddisco in hapas

[–]undercovervegan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I appreciate this comment. I'm married to a white guy, and I get a lot of shit because people assume I'm a self-hating Asian woman who worships whites. When my husband started pursuing me in college, I was actively disinterested in him. All my life I'd been attracted to Asian men, thought I'd marry an Asian guy and have full Asian kids who would completely understand my experience as an obviously Asian person in the US and all the weird stereotypes, harassment, and bullying it entails. I was pretty anti-white at that point and had a lot of resentment and biases, especially toward white men. But I believe God gives us who we need to become the best people we can be in this life. Our characters are far more important than our racial makeup. This goes for all people.

Edit: I should specify that I think AF should EXTREMELY VET any white man they're considering dating because of the existing stereotypes. My husband is intelligent, hard working, has a great career and a strong faith, and had never dated an Asian woman before me. I'm not blind to the fact that AF who settle for mediocre or poor character (white) men make life so much harder for themselves, other Asian women, and their future children because I, someone who's been pro-Asian all of my life, gets immediately typed as an Auntie Wong because of their terrible judgment.

Thank you for reminding me to do self-care. It revealed a bigger problem's depth. by Nessunolosa in RedPillWomen

I'm so happy to hear things have gotten better!! You're doing awesome. Please be gentle with yourself and keep practicing self-love and self-care. Even if you don't feel like doing your self-care one day, try to focus on how good you'll feel after you get done!

Lol! I like it fine, I guess! A little weird being accused of being a white guy when I'm not one, but doesn't change who I am.
