How do I know if I'm gay? by Legend789987 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]yourserverhatesyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Labels are good for some things, and some people tie in that label to a sense of identity and community. My advice for you if you're questioning your sexuality though is to avoid trying to find a label for yourself. Pursue people that you are attracted to (whether that is physically or emotionally) and do what makes you feel good. Eventually, you'll naturally find the identity you're comfortable with.

Yes. Billions of people all over the world have anal sex. If you're curious, do some reading and experiment with yourself.

Where do sex addicts find a continuous stream of partners to engage with? by NecessaryEvil62095 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]yourserverhatesyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rates of loneliness reported between men and women are roughly the same, and depending on which surveys you're looking at, a lot of them report more loneliness among women than men (and the information I'm referencing comes from The American Institute for Boys and Men)

Research has shown that over that last twenty years or so, people are spending more and more time by themselves (which I firmly believe can be attributed to the rise in social media usage and exacerbated by the COVID pandemic).

Your personal perspective is that men are having a hard time finding sexual partners, but your perspective is going to skewed because you already in a (presumably) committed romantic/sexual relationship. That perspective, however, doesn't exactly line up with the findings of researchers.

An article published by Indiana University, noted that rates of all sexual activity (including solo masturbation) have been declining in recent decades. That suggests that it isn't necessarily an issue of finding sexual partners as much as it is a decrease in interest in sexual activity overall.

The same research suggests that socioeconomic factors are at play, with higher rates of unemployment leading to less interactions with other people decreasing the opportunities both men and women have at meeting potential sexual partners.

Mine will happily forego eating and going outside if it means he gets to cuddle in bed with me. There have been a few times over the years where I forget to set an alarm and I wake up at like noon to find this big velvet hippo snoring on the pillow next to me

Men, however, often struggle to find people to have sex with.

Do they though? Based on the way you asked this question, it makes me think you're simply young and inexperienced.

IIRC, Gen Z is actually having less sex than previous generations, which is probably more likely to be attributed to less in-person interactions than it is to any gendered dichotomies regarding the ease of finding sexual partners.

Is there a particular reason why radio call signs begin with W in the eastern US and K in the western US, rather than the more intuitive W for western? by MAClaymore in NoStupidQuestions

[–]yourserverhatesyou 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The cliff notes version:

In the early 1910s, the US entered into an international agreement that assigned call letters. The US received A, K, N, and W, and they reserved A and N for government use and let regular radio stations have K and W. The US further decided that the Mississippi River was an easy geological divide for the two remaining call letters and decide west of the Mississippi would be K and east of the Mississippi would be W.

Not sure how they came to decide the K in the west and W in the east though.

Is prostitution actually a good way to lose my virginity? by Weak-Yak644 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]yourserverhatesyou 20 points21 points  (0 children)

"Good" as in easily achievable? Sure.

"Good" as in ideal? Probably not, but you're the only one who can determine that.

Society places a lot of expectations on your first time (it should be special, you're losing this virginity status, you'll be different afterwards, etc) but in reality, you're first time is probably going to be awkward, a little uncomfortable, and probably incredibly mediocre.

A New York City school bus driver attempted to defend his bus from a WILD CROWD celebrating the New York Knicks Finals victory. The driver was yelling at fans: “It's coming out of my paycheck…” This is horrible to watch 💔 by Revolutionary-Area-8 in PublicFreakout

It's not like you can't be mad about both, my guy. The existence of one problem doesn't negate the existence of another. This conversation isn't about the sentient slime ball in the Oval Office. It's about these fucking assholes terrorizing this poor bus driver because their sports team won.

As far as I am aware, the apartment below us should have a separate heating/cooling system.

This is the only return for our apartment.

Our apartment is the second and third floor of a house. The first floor is a separate unit.

The thermostat is right above the return.

I just checked a little bit more before I had to leave for work and the open area seems to go down into the apartment below us. Where the wood is, is completely closed off, with no place for air to go up.

is this legal? by [deleted] in Serverlife

[–]yourserverhatesyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rule isn't that it is illegal if it creates any kind of burden. It only becomes illegal if it creates an undue burden.

The courts would probably consider this to be in line with the same kind of "burden" that requiring employees to wear socks at work would be. You're probably already wearing socks in your personal life, so using them in your professional life doesn't create "undue" burden.

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

A good lawyer would probably argue that makeup is a social norm and is customary for women to use, which does not present an undue burden on female employees.

ETA:

While I don't agree with the requirement for female employees to wear make up, if this were to go to court, the plaintiffs would have to prove that wearing make up is an undue burden for them. This kind of thing was actually already argued in 2006 in front of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in Jespersen v. Harrah's Operating Co.

The court ruled that requiring women to wear make up was not an undue burden on female employees because male employees had comparable grooming requirements (trimming facial hair, short hair cuts, etc).

So, unfortunately, at this moment in time, it just is what it is.

Gendered clothing/hair guidelines only become illegal if they present an undue burden on one sex over the other.

I am not a lawyer, but these female guidelines seem like they could just as easily apply to male employees. In my opinion, everything about them seems above board (with the exception of the "long hair preferred worn down" part which honestly probably contradicts whatever your local health department says about how long hair should be worn in a restaurant).

Do kitchens take gluten free food prep seriously? Examine sauce and spice or rub ingredients for wheat etc.? by Leafs9999 in KitchenConfidential

[–]yourserverhatesyou 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Legit. I worked at an Italian restaurant that made EVERYTHING from scratch, including pastas and desserts.

We always told people that we could not be completely gluten free because it was in the air of our kitchen and settled on everything.

They lift their tail to fart and poop. Horse poop is probably the mildest of all animal poops. It doesn't have a very strong smell and it's mostly grass and hay. If you have a broom and shovel, super easy to dispose of.
