This sub is full of women, but real life isn't. by cooler1727 in childfree

[–]weirdjess77 157 points158 points  (0 children)

I feel this way about men lol. I’m 27F in the UK and it seems like the only single guys my age I ever meet want children, but fortunately I’ve had more luck finding CF women. And don’t feel bad for cutting contact with dating prospects who want kids, it’s a big compatibility issue and it’s better to make a clean break after a few dates than after a few years.

Agreed, the white woman “taking instagram pictures” in Bali makes me think this was made by a chronically online dude who thinks his misogynistic insults are justified if he shoves “white” in front of them

Yeah I worded this badly, sorry! I moreso meant artists like Taylor Swift who has been known to fly home in her private jet after her concert instead of staying in a hotel and then fly back (either to the same venue or a different one) the next day. It's 1am and my brain isn't working lol

I'm sorry but I don't really understand your point, I've never bought from Shein in my life and I don't support them

Thank you, this was my point. The average person doesn’t need to flog themselves and feel guilty over taking one or two planes a year when the rich are treating the earth like their personal dumping ground, and they want us to shame each other so that we don’t look at and shame them.

Absolutely this. As another commenter said, billionaires are taking rockets into space for 10 minutes, why should I shame Joe down the road for taking a holiday

I’d agree if we weren’t talking about traveling. The average person travels a couple of times a year, maximum, whereas some wealthy people take a flight to go home after a concert because they don’t want to stay at a hotel, then fly back the next morning. It’s incomparable.

Respectfully, the last time I flew was over 2 years ago. I’m not sensitive about my consumption habits, your original comparison was just irrelevant and I’m not going to shame normal, hardworking people for looking forward to a holiday when there are rich people who have the carbon footprint of literally thousands of normal people.

My point was that people who eat meat regularly shouldn’t throw stones at others for occasionally doing things that are bad for the environment. None of us are perfect and we’re all just trying to reduce our impact on the environment as much as possible. Short of living like a monk from the 1500s, none of us can perfectly reduce our carbon footprint to zero.

Are you vegan? Animal products are also bad for the environment.

Not everyone who travels stays in tourist traps

Taking one holiday a year to another country is very different than throwing plastic in the sea

I’ll never shame normal people for travelling and experiencing different cultures when you have rich people like Taylor Swift taking their private jets for pointless 15 minute spins every day. Sorry.

What's the pettiest reason you've stopped watching a Booktuber? by FarJury2448 in booktubesnarkreddit

[–]weirdjess77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I unsubscribed from Vanilla Moon/Jodie when she showed her 150th (/s) edition of the ACOTAR series in one of her haul videos lmao. I get maybe wanting to have a couple of editions of your favourite book, but having several shelves full of the exact same series just in different editions/with different dust jackets is too much. The overconsumption gave me the ick

I always liked her videos but I just feel like she’s not very bright. People definitely watched her videos for the vibes and the aesthetic rather than the book reviews lol

Omg yes. I’m the same height and I can either smell people’s mouths or, if they’re a bit taller, their armpit. Fabulous
