There's a way to position this to make sure she has coverage too. Like if you make 125 and she makes 75, and the plan is a joint account for expenses, make sure that if things go sideways she knows she will get the equivalent of 25k in contributions. When we separated, my wife actually got brutalized. We were in a community property state, so we each got half of the assets accrued during our marriage...which meant she got like 60k from my retirement, but it also meant she got ~40k in consumer an…

Could it be.... And stay with me here because it's a strange concept... I never fucking asked you to be that person. You just inserted yourself into that role, which was never asked for, and then done it (shittily), made me worse off for it, then blamed/resented me for it. Grow the fuck up.

Dude I had my first girlfriend at 19 after I finally went off to college. The thing about being 17 is that most folks are in a pond where you've been swimming with the same fish since you were 6, unless you've moved around a bunch, which has its own set of issues associated with it. Cut yourself some slack. Once you're done with high school and you're out in the world - whether that's work or the military or college or any of it - you'll have a chance to do some self-discovery and see what's out…

Thinking of the Rick and Morty line. That just sounds like The Prisoner's Dilemma with extra steps. I wonder how much of the effect here is attributable to the way men are generally acculturated to "take it like a man."

There's a lot that makes me a man, but it definitely feels like when I fall back on old conditioning - the impulse to problem solve is a good example - it's called toxic. If you're having an issue with a project, I might by default say "maybe you need to set it aside for a weekend, or go to a different place like a cafe or something to work on it instead of your desk." My higher brain realizes you probably just want to vent, but I can't help myself because at the core I see someone I care about …

What's more sinister is that it's perpetuated by society. Make money, be the provider, be the protector, make the first move, don't have a range of emotions or if you do at least keep that shit to yourself and/or get therapy, be fit, play sports, etc etc. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, even in an era of progressive social thought.

Means it's hard to argue with data. If you look at a cis het man's swipe behavior and a cis het woman's swipe behavior, the woman views ~150 profiles a day and swipes right on about 5% of them. Men, by contrast, view about 120 profiles and swipe right on about 50% of them. (Source - https://thebolditalic.com/the-two-worlds-of-tinder-f1c34e800db4 links to Swipestats.io source data in the article.) This suggests to me that women are perhaps looking harder, but are far more selective. Men on the ot…

1 post karma, -4 comment karma. No need to be an apologist. The fact is that this provides real, verifiable data for statisticians and social scientists to use. Explaining why the numbers look the way they do is a different story, and they can be twisted to match a narrative I'll grant you, but numbers are numbers. Tinder and OLD is a distillation of the game theory dynamics which have driven matchmaking for decades.

Now do it again, but tell it you're a cis-het female prof in a room of 16 boys and 1 girl. Literally copy paste everything else and see if it says the same thing. If other screenshots are any suggestion, it will tell you to have them all expelled or something equally nuts. That said, I'm glad it said to acknowledge the harm. Even if it is tounge-in-cheek Futurama-tier "kill all humans" type banter. It's still fucked up and there's no place in academia for people to advocate violence of any kind.

I'll give the poster credit for what looks like an aha moment. Edit: apparently this post is a gender swap of this post from a year ago. A post in which I didn't reply but did upvote YTA verdicts. This is concerning to me. I intend to think more carefully about my own gender biases. I suggest everyone who participated in both posts do the same. What's alarming is all the messages about "this is how you become a domestic slave."

Maybe the best use case for remote work. None of this office bullshit. We see each other only when a meeting warrants it. There's no passing in the hallway, sharing an elevator, standing next to each other getting coffee, dropping off paperwork, etc. There should be no ambiguity about why we're talking. There can be no mistaking that there is no agenda besides work - implied or otherwise - on either side of this equation.

There are definitely societal pressures which are harmful to men. Real men just walk it off. Real men make more money. Real men are in decent shape. Real men can patch a hole in the wall or change a light socket. Real men don't need a therapist. Real men are comfortable with sharing emotions. Fact is, men aren't a monolith, and these messages are perpetuated by men and women alike, either explicitly or implicitly. We get a lot of it from our fathers and peer groups, but in the era of social medi…

It will never happen. There's a reason there's a tension between "I want the six figure man (partner)" and "I want equal representation in the workforce" and "you have to earn the six figures in a 'socially acceptable' manner" and "I make my own money." Anecdotal, but in my few weeks on OLD, I've found there are plenty of women who are white (pink) collar - in fact I see a lot of teachers and nurses - and plenty of tech workers and HR types. But I've seen one woman with a traditional blue collar…

I am what you can call "Neurospicy," and my options are 1) Go to the gym 2) Take my meds 3) Shut the fuck up 4) Paint 40k stuff quite autistically 5) Make self-deprecating jokes 6) Shitpost on Reddit.

$10 says if you email the authors (politely) they will send you a preprint or something free of charge. Most folks are so excited to share/talk about their work, and they don't want the paywall to be a barrier to it getting out there. I've never had an issue when I've reached out about a paper I genuinely wanted to read.

This research was supported by a grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada to the third author. We should talk about the real crime here: that the government paid for this study and then Wiley is selling the findings for $20 a copy.

Using wealth or income or apartment size as a proxy for a person's industriousness or merit is completely fucked. Take me, for example. I'm incredibly fortunate. I make about 5x the median income in my state, for no other reason than I was in the right spot at the right time with the right lines on my resume. And I am lazy as fuck. There are people at my local Taco Bell making $15/hr who sure as fuck work harder than I do. It's alarming how many people (and it's plenty of men, too) think like th…

Well not quite. Assuming you're a straight guy... Average lifespan for dudes is 76.3. Median sexual partners for heterosexual males is 6.3. 35+370 = 405 partners... Divided by 6.3 is about 64.28 lifetimes of sex. Times a lifespan of 76.3, is roughly 4,905 years worth of partners. So yeah I hope you got her numbers in fucking cuneiform. You literally predate pottery. I should add that my issue wasn't with the number of partners, merely with the use of "above average." While factually true, I thin…

Bruh... Higher than average? The median number of sexual partners in a lifetime according to the CDC is 4.3. With an average lifespan of 81.4 years, you have literally had...wait for it... Approximately 1,097 years worth of sex. Over 13 lifetime's worth. Nearly 11 millennia of dick. If a woman started having sex right around the time fucking Charlemagne was in charge, and banged at the average 2021 rate, she would still not catch up to you. And you're not even 30.

For all his (mostly wrong) detractors, this is actually something Kevin Samuels undeniably gets right. "If you're not trying to get married and have kids..." The catch is that most men are, they just want their own. That's one of the reasons I have a substantial life insurance policy. I love my wife and kids desperately, but I know the world doesn't and won't necessarily see them the same way I do.

I mean, I give her a lot of credit for putting in the time and effort to grow a business to the point where she's making 100k in North Carolina. But man there are a lot of FDS buzzwords in this video holy fuck. The thing is that decent relationships of all kinds are asymmetric. There's this projection going on and it's a recipe for disaster.

Probably a Project Manager or Scrummaster something, because if you're an executive (C-Level or even VP) you have definitely stopped bragging about making six figures. The word "executive" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. That or you are being underpaid by hundreds of thousands of dollars.
