Great, that's close enough that we don't need to get into the granular details—and the period and regional differences don't matter that much. We're just establishing that prior to the late 20th century, LGBT people had kids. And we know that in the late 20th century and on, there are more options for both gay and straight people to conceive. So we can agree that LGBT people were having kids throughout history and well into the present, if they so chose. Having established that: This indicates t…

Ok, good, you seem to have a grasp on human reproduction. So let's move onto step two. I want you to speculate on how homosexual relationships might have worked prior to the late 20th century. There's no wrong answers, we're only speculating. Take a stab at it.

Ok, I've translated this screed. The only important part is here. Replace "the guy" with "I/me/my" and it makes sense: But if the guy is an actual friend but just so happens to have ended up attracted to you and you take advantage of that by messing up his feelings then that’s what we call stringing someone along and sometimes you don’t know that you’re doing that, he’s not a diet boyfriend or a “kinda” or a “maybe one day” no he’s a friend or in this case… was a friend.

Look, I get that your job is just posting on PPD so if you were fired from this "job" there would be zero social and professional consequences but that's generally not the experience for most people when they lose a job. I give this fanciful story you've written a 1/5 stars. Don't get me wrong, it had some highlights. Like when a 32 year-old man was "pressured by his parents to marry" another 32 year-old.

You misread me. I'm not defending anything. I'm simply stating that runners are weird and I want nothing to do with them. But, on the second point we agree. I had one friend who briefly dated a woman who was almost 20 years younger than the rest of us. It was weird hanging around a child—they weren't an actual child, but they were the same age as one of my friend's kids. No one liked it.

That happened to my wife (girlfriend at the time). I was meeting her at a pub. I walked up as she was talking to him. He offered to buy her a drink. She said sure as long as he bought one for me too.

Yes, I'm aware of the statistics and you've parroted them at me perfectly. But you did no deeper analysis. Western countries are rich countries. By extension, there's a ceiling on the number of kids any couple might have. But the floor is zero. I'm not saying my approach results in 5 kids per couple. I'm saying my approach results in 2 kids per couple instead of zero. Do you want a modern, rich, service economy with young couples that have, at most, 2 children or do you want a poor, subsistence …

At the risk of admitting I have a reading comprehension problem To be fair, most people who object to the term "toxic masculinity" interpret that term to mean "masculinity is toxic" instead of it's own, separate thing. It's a sub-optimal label. Swap "toxic masculinity" for "tryhards" and that's all it means. Dudes who try hard to appear masculine. And that's the other component, it's entirely surface level. It's a layer of paint, but it's not even very good paint.

Masculinity (in terms of character and not physicality), even PEAK masculinity, cannot be and is not toxic. "Masculinity" is the root word. "Toxic" is an adjective. "Toxic Masculinity" has a separate and distinct meaning from "Masculinity".

Don't have the chance to actively form friendships and maintain them? Do they live in a cage in the dark? Making friends is not hard. It takes effort but it's not difficult. But you have to expend the effort, you have to go do things where you meet other people. All you have to do is go where people are, on or offline, reach out, say hi, express interest in them, get to know then, see if they want to do it again. It's really not that hard.

Me, 15 years ago, a newly minted psychologist working my first gig in community health at my first, ever, clinical staffing meeting with the county discussing a case involving my newly assigned client. Client was on hold at the hospital—I didn't even put him on hold, I haven't done the state certification yet—and we were doing a case review to determine whether he met diagnostic criteria for an extended stay at the state hospital. I don't know what the fuck I'm doing. I still have the stink of g…

If simple sex is a "need" for you then there's multiple avenues to fulfill that need. There is a time-honored tradition of simply paying a professional. It's also one of the shortest distances you can travel to fulfill that need. But I don't think having or not having sex is the problem for you. Further down you state, "what it's like to never even remotely be desirable to the gender you are attracted to". I think this is the real issue. This is actually a better problem because it has contribut…

This is after a week of digging it out to give it an extra two feet of height. He worked at the job for about a year. Always the same weight. He did put on more muscle though. But still fat.

That's bs. It's unrealistic for everyone to be a social butterfly, A sizeable income and time off are also required for someone to take regular overseas vacations.

Patriarchy. Kids are free with expressing emotions and then they’re taught not to if they’re male because “blah blah boys don’t cry blah blah” and you get a bunch of emotionally stunted low eq dummies talking about red and blue pills.

Why wait at all? If you’re interested in a person and you feel like it might be mutual there’s literally no harm in asking them out for a coffee or drink. Everyone knows what that means, it’s a low risk, zero commitment invitation to have a mutual interview to explore the possibility of a romantic relationship. Worst thing that can happen is they say no. Now you know. There’s no “right time”—excluding obvious scenarios like them already being in a relationship.

The reason men complain about it Some men. I've only ever encountered someone using this term online and used by men who don't cultivate actual, meaningful friendships with women. The strangers->friends ->lovers sequence of romance is very popular in the media and some dudes fell for it.Even though it's probably the worst possible strategy. First, the fact that you call it a "strategy" is almost entirely the reason why it doesn't work for you because women aren't idiots and you're not as crafty …

The entire pill paradigm is incredibly stupid.

Just looking at this photograph it seems to me that someone is trying to misrepresent actual situation. You just described this entire subreddit.

The law should be changed. Yeah? How do you propose getting around the inevitable "I didn't know X was illegal" defense now that the law has been changed?

You got it. Age of consent in Florida is 18.

That's not how the law works.

This. Florida has incredibly strict age of consent laws. Girl was 14, guy was 18. Full stop.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
