Preach

Preach

Cringe basically just means “Acting in an unpleasant & embarrassing way that isn’t outright harmful”. uwu roflcopter is still cringe, but so is being a reddit mod for example. If something is outright harmful such as punching someone, that isn’t really ‘cringe’ anymore. The word doesn’t fit.

People keep saying this but I haven’t really seen that yet. I guess I need to stay longer. For the most part its your run of the mill lefty talking points, not very different from Reddit.

You must be right, as many people say it, I just personally haven’t seen it.

I wish it was publicised more when accounts get nuked. The what & why. Everyone online just assumes if you get action’ed on you must have been spouting some far right nazi rhetoric but it’s way way more common for it to be something innocent, or just out of context, or even just poorly worded. There is a wide range.

Reddit encourages you to care about your account (cakeday, karma, reply notifications etc. It’s all set to make your care about your account) and then they nuke it when you say something they don’t like.

Truly some of the worst moderation I’ve ever seen. Admins too. Up there with stack overflow, which was dying from poor moderation long before AI decapitated it

I don’t “decide” if they are, like in an objective sense. I’m perfectly capable of creating opinions on the subject. Which is exactly what you’re doing; you think it’s fine. That’s an opinion. We have both formed opinions on the subject.

the wrong vag will destroy you

I mean it could give me an incurable STD. Or lead to a kid in the world that I didn’t want. Each would destroy a part of me.

Also venting is healthy… People forget that your spouse is also your roommate and it’s normal to have things you dislike about your roommate. Why wouldn’t it be normal to have things you don’t like about your spouse?

This is just immediately obvious to 99% of adults in long term relationships. There’s something about critically online 20-somethings that think disliking anything about your spouse makes you an asshole

TIL having literally any standards around sex makes you a prude 🤣

There are many that are that ‘wrong kind of person’ that simply don’t realize it. And to that person, that gets excited when they see men put down, I ask you to reflect on that feeling.

Blegh. So much loaded language. A MAN said one thing in reference to something a WOMAN said. How dare he.

IMO sex should always be with some one special to you, it’s not respecting your own body to just go fuck whoever. That’s my perspective on it, I’m not calling those that disagree with it a whore but it’s how I feel people should treat their own body. Why take on the various risks of sex with some random person you don’t care about? At that point why not just Jack or Jill yourself. And yes, that applies to men too - which I assume will blow your mind. Similar to how I think people should eat healthy foods… those that don’t aren’t morally wrong they just aren’t setting themselves up for success and IMO making a mistake.

I agree most western cultures put too much emphasis on female virginity, catholicism stands out, but IMO you’ve gone way too far in the opposite direction into “sex literally has no cost” which is factually wrong.

I’m glad you reached peace with it but from my perspective, that teacher is a mega jerk.

One time I was day dreaming in class, I forget about what but 100% not aware of my surroundings, and the teacher stopped the lecture to ask me to “stop smiling at her like that it’s weird” in one of my highschool classes. It didn’t really ‘bother’ me but I did consider filing a complaint with the school lmao.

You are conflating two different things. The post is about virginity being “significant” but your position seems to be more about your first sex being “especially good” which is not what any person ever claims.

Also no one is shaming you in this thread. I guess maybe you had bad experiences elsewhere? There is nothing shameful with not caring about your virginity but that isn’t a common position.

I mean I’m a guy but that doesn’t match what literally any girl in my life has ever said.

They pretty much all share a similar story about them being extremely nervous and it being uncomfortable awkward sex. No one described it as “magical” and also no one described it as “just another Wednesday”.

It’s not special in some cosmic sense. You’re not losing a part of your soul.

But as the other dude said, you’re experiencing something very intense & intimate for the first time. That moment is significant for the vast majority of people.

According to the mom, if he pulled up in a Ferrari with a pringle can, her virginity as a concept would be relevant again.

Hate to break the news to you. But you opened up a thread for discussion, and inside it, you found discussion. You did actually ask for it.

Eh. Good message wrapped up in weird body shaming, class shaming, vaguely misandrist ‘rhetoric’.

This aint it. It’s close to it. They’re the same aisle. But it aint it.

I had this interaction once.

1. Friend 1 politely danced around “Yeah years ago I kinda thought you were bit of a jerk”
2. Me “Oh I don’t blame you I was kind of an ass & had some maturing to do”
3. The entire rest of the group, at once, “Oh yeah you were a major asshole” / “That’s why I didn’t talk to you for a while” / “Yeah no shit” / etc.

Anyways I started declining their invitations from then on.

If they spent 5 minutes stating all the issues they’re having and then asked about my relationship - I wouldn’t look at them like an alien and start talking about great my partner is.

I would probably mention something inoffensive that annoyed me or talk about something going to happen (“We’re headed to LA in a few weeks”) just to change the subject. I certainly wouldn’t start stating all the great things about my partner because that’s just social incompetence in that context.
