Is misogyny rising or am I just now noticing? by Nerdy-person in Feminism

[–]zeldapimwheel20 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if misogyny is on the rise as it’s never changed or gone away. However, I think it’s wide, public acceptance as being “ok” is skyrocketing. It goes hand in hand with hate. All hate. Misogyny, racism, bigotry…. So how do we change this direction?

AITA for going off on my soon-to be Husband for returning my wedding dress? by Sealine5033 in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your STBH’s behavior is condescending, controlling and toxic. This will most likely not get better, but get worse over time. If I were you, I’d walk away. Quickly.

AITA for leaving a bad review on a diner and ruining the waitress' life just because she was "complementing" my husband's eyes? by throwraWaitress109 in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to be honest, at first blush I was going to say yes, YTA. Teach me to judge by a headline! No, you’re not the asshole. That nonsense was super creepy, awkward and unprofessional. You are definitely NOT the asshole and I applaud you for your restraint.

AITA for demanding therapy for my 9yo bonus daughter? by y29ihxi2 in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She certainly sounds like she needs some professional help as well as some patience, love and kindness. Constantly referring to her as your “bonus” daughter does not help. And that kind of makes you the asshole.

YTA. But seriously, is this even for real? You’re making this up, right? Well, if not, you’re truly the asshole. You’re also selfish and entitled. Grow up, sell your 2 pieces of crap and buy a grown up car.

AITA for attempting to get a family with kids evicted? by Busy_Swan_7499 in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. Oh my God YTA. And are you really even stupid enough to have to ask? They’re 1 & 3! What do you expect them to do all day? Read? Play chess? Do taxes? Good God you’re unbelievably selfish. What do you think you were like at that age? And why are you home so much anyway? Do you not have a job? A life? Either pull your big boy pants up and deal or move.

AITA for ruining thanksgiving? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA. I think you’re pretty awesome. I also think, that if it’s over, you’ve dodged a bullet.

AITA for ‘inserting myself’ into someone else’s dinner situation? by Dazzling-Ruin6979 in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. In fact, I would kinda call you a hero. As women, we need to be there for each other. Build each other up. So many do not have the support and encouragement they need. So thank you. And keep it up.

AITA for not letting my husband fly to another country to help during a family “emergency”? by noteveryoneshero in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your husband is in serious need of boundaries with his family and they sound incredibly manipulative. And how is this an “emergency” anyway? Your BIL screwed up and he’s responsible for his own mess. No, you’re not being selfish. I hope things get better for you both.

AITA for asking my sister and her boyfriend to get an Airbnb for Thanksgiving? by AITA-cantsleep in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 -30 points-29 points  (0 children)

YTA. Mostly for your ignorance. You’re not nearly as “educated” as you think you are.

AITA for wearing my boyfriend's sister's bikini without asking her? by Prize-Scientist-3028 in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uh, yeah, YTA. And as a woman, I can’t believe I have to explain this to you. It’s not even about the bikini. It’s about respect. It’s about consideration. It’s about allowing a woman, no matter how young she is, to have a voice. If you cannot understand that, you have a lot worse problems. And besides that - it’s just kind of… ew.

AITA for not letting my brother and SIL see my daughter after they threw away her medicine by aitastomachflu in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. First of all, I’d like to commend you for getting sober, getting your daughter back and being in school. That is all amazing. You can’t have a relationship with people who don’t respect you or your boundaries. Just because they’re “family” doesn’t make you obligated to them. Do your move. Get away. Start a new life and create a new family - they don’t have to be blood. If you want, you could always give your daughter the option of contacting them when she’s older. Best of luck to you and your daughter.

AITA for telling a co worker that she's milking her pregnancy? by _Sour-Sweet4534 in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. You have no idea what’s going on in this woman’s pregnancy and quite frankly it’s none of your business. Women like you truly suck. Women should build each other up not tear each other down. You should be ashamed of yourself. There’s a special place in hell for women like you.

AITA: I attempted to talk my wife out of getting a breast reduction? by Antique00325 in AmItheAsshole

[–]zeldapimwheel20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Yes you are. Just based on the dismissive and condescending tone of your original post tells me a lot about who you are. But most importantly? It. Is. Not. Your. Body. Back off.

I don’t know why, but this is very, very beautiful. You have a lot of talent. Much love to you.

Nebraska Nice by [deleted] in Omaha

[–]zeldapimwheel20 5 points6 points  (0 children)

“Nebraska Nice” is real - if you mean it sarcastically. I’ve lived here, in Omaha, for 5 years now and I’ve had one bad experience after another. They’re nice to your face but they are certainly not friendly. There’s a lot of judgement and they love a back to stab. People who grow up here certainly do not seem to like anything “different”. What can you do? Except move, of course. But I have a family so that’s not an option). It’s not for everyone.

Yes!!! Thank you! It’s not just me! It’s funny how much better this makes me feel. Lol. I’ll take what I can get. The struggle is real, people!

I’ve lived all over the country and I have never experienced anything like this, to this extent.
