Don't punish yourself for not reaching a ridiculous goal on your first attempt. Nightclubs are shitty places to spend time; try meeting people through friends and acquaintances.

It really depends on where you get your news. I'm new to Reddit, but it seems to pretty lightweight and infotainment focused. Without derailing into a rant about declining journalistic standards and the culture of celebrity, there is very little written about weighty matters, and a lot about froth and bubble.

You are possibly looking in the wrong places. I'm not much of a consumer of pop culture, so all I know about Thicke is that I change the station when he comes on the radio as his songs are creepy and rubbish. Him and Miley Cyrus was at yhe VMAs was cringe inducing. He's old enough (I'm guessing mid 40s) to know better. You won't find any criticism of Harry Potter on the teenybopper scenes like Twitter/Tumblr/Reddit. The academic media and the Christian community both have plenty to say, if you c…

Which children's movies? Because if you mean HP, it's been pretty throughly dissected by the author, critics and even used as an educational resource regarding the depiction of rape in popular culture. The depiction of rape in Gone With The Wind is an interesting cultural crossover, with Bonnie 's death being compared with Voldemort 's descent into evil as examples of the illegitimacy of children of rape. Another depiction of love potions occurs in My Little Pony, where a group of students use a…

In Harry Potter, the love potion is made (illegally, the fact that it's a forbidden potion is stated several times in the books) for the purpose escape from an abusive household (Morope tricking Tom Riddle Sr) and in order to gain the attention of a "celebrity" (Romilda Vane ' s accidental poisoning Ron Weasley while attempting to make Harry Potter fall in love with her.) much is made of Morope's insanity and sub normal intelligence, and the situation regarding his non consensual conception and …

Very true. I love my beautiful boy, he's such a sweet, generous person. The idea of a hate movement like TRP getting their hooks into him at the vulnerable time that is adolescence is frightening.

I know you're frightened of women having the same rights as men, so we'll leave feminism aside; but why the fear of Muslims? Loony ISIL types are to Islam what Westboro Baptists and medieval crusaders are to Christians.

As a teacher and a parent of 5 children, personalities and socialization of those personalities start right from birth. My eldest son is a sensitive, caring and generous boy. My second son is much more rough and tumble. He cries less and hits more than his older brother. My oldest daughter is very feminine and gentle, whilst her younger sister is a very strong minded individual. She'd rather pull her fingernails off than cry or back down from a fight. The baby just cares about boobs.

Because anger is a socially acceptable male emotion. If boys weren't shamed about their tears (don't cry like a girl/big boys don't cry/be a man/be stoic, etc...) then they wouldn't need to turn their sadness into anger.

As someone who was in charge of a sleepover of 10 year old boys who got teary (then pretended they didn't) when Stoic died in How To Train Your Dragon 2, I know that boys have plenty of emotion. They are just socially conditioned to hide it.

My parents and grandparents had a profound influence on what I looked for and what I sought to avoid in relationships. My parents complemented each other: Mum is practical and strong, she works hard and takes no prisoners, whereas Dad is an intellectual who would die if Mum wasn't there to look after him. He's a thinker, she's a doer. My maternal grandparents were very traditional, he was the provider, while she kept the home fires burning, did charitable work and volunteered. They fought like t…

I think you'll find that neither party is very happy in those sorts of relationships. They'd be better off divorcing and finding someone (or some dog) who's company they enjoy.

Or one who has better things to do than create conflict for the sake of it. They enjoy each other's company and both go out of their way to do little things to please the other.

I found the same thing in working class and underprivileged areas. At "nicer" schools, girls do not get physical. A girl who punches or kicks is committing social suicide. But working class gals will deck each other, no sweat. Hitting boys is taboo though.

To be honest, the relationship you describe doesn't sound red pill, besides you calling him your captain. For other women, I would advise to stay employed and employable. Know where the money goes.

Are you going to tell a veteran that they didn't go through their wartime experience? Because I don't think they'd take kindly to a soft, sheltered little brat telling then that they're wrong. SAS (I should have said ASAS, but they were called SAS back then) are the Australian special forces, bound by terms of the ANZUS treaty to remain in the country and stabilize the region.

High school is a crime against humanity. I was 5 ft 6 in, 90 lb, no boobs, sporty and bookish.

My blue pilly dad and husband both work in a male dominated industry (engineering). Both have complained about the habit of men to draw pictures of penises on any available blank space, to try and upskirt female engineers, co-workers objections to the appointments of female workers (they won't fit in/we'll have to put in a female toilet), and the fact that hygiene is low on the list of priorities for many men.

Getting men into teaching is a huge part of the solution, especially at primary and pre primary levels.

I'd say that boys -as an average - prefer different learning styles to girls.

Firstly, most rapes aren't committed by some random psychopath in a bar; they're committed by someone you know.

Wages can only be garnished by court order and when your employer agrees to it. If you're self employed or a subcontractor; then it's very easy to pay yourself a small salary whilst rolling the rest of your income into business expenses and superannuation.

Pre nups aren't worth the paper they're printed on, are they? Everyone I know who's used one has had it challenged in court in the end. As for academic credentials v earning power; the two tend to be closely linked. A person with a degree is almost always going to have more earning power than a person without one. Some degrees (social work, scientific research, fine arts) aren't going to get you a high powered career, but you're in a better position than someone who's only qualification is their…

Most of my classmates really struggled to find men who weren't intimidated by their credentials. It takes a very self assured man to be able to cope with an intelligent and successful woman. I am the only one of the wives in my husband's line of work (civil engineering/project management) in his organization who works. Most of the men insist on stay at home wives, or marry women who want to stay home. Given the high divorce rate in the industry, it can be very hard on these women to then break b…

Given my mother had to supply written permission from her father in order to accept a place at university that wasn't in the teaching or nursing faculties, I'd say they were definitely unusual.

Bizarre sidestep in logic is bizarre. If your therapist is sneering at you, then you need a new therapist. I don't hold Bryant in contempt; as someone who was tormented that badly at school that I ended up self harming, suffering PTSD and can thank can control laws for the fact that I didn't do a "Colombine", I think there needs to be much more help available for people suffering from mental illness.

I was under the impression that the male bell curve was flatter than the female one: Yes, there are more men with very high IQs, but there are also many more men with IQs 3 or more standard deviations below the mean; whereas women tend to follow a sharper curve, with less deviation from the mean. Problematically, more males are tested than females, and standard IQ tests such as Myer Briggs tends to favour male, middle class protestants.

Being attracted to a particular gender is a genetic predisposition; being attracted to a particular "type" is a preference that will usually evolve over time.
