Oprah Winfrey. Froms rags to riches, she is considered by many to be the ultimate female role model. Considering how hard her life was, I can see why - and she don't need no man either!

Was reading her wiki and I found this bit interesting...evidently, she was neglected and abused by the women in her family, she lied about "choosing" to not be a mother, and she was on a fast track to kleptomania had her...wait for it...FATHER not stepped in to give structure to her life. From there, she, herself, kicked all manner of ass.

Someone tell me fathers aren't important enough...

Winfrey has stated she was molested by her cousin, uncle, and a family friend, starting when she was nine years old, something she first announced on a 1986 episode of her TV show regarding sexual abuse. When Winfrey discussed the alleged abuse with family members at age 24, they reportedly refused to believe her account. Winfrey once commented that she had chosen not to be a mother because she had not been mothered well. At 13, after suffering what she described as years of abuse, Winfrey ran away from home. When she was 14, she became pregnant, but her son was born prematurely and died shortly after birth. Winfrey later stated she felt betrayed by the family member who had sold the story of her son to the National Enquirer in 1990.

Winfrey attended Lincoln High School in Milwaukee, but after early success in the Upward Bound program, was transferred to the affluent suburban Nicolet High School. Upon transferring, she said she was continually reminded of her poverty as she rode the bus to school with fellow African-Americans, some of whom were servants of her classmates' families. She began to rebel and steal money from her mother in an effort to keep up with her free-spending peers. As a result, her mother once again sent her to live with Vernon in Nashville, although this time she did not take her back. Vernon was strict but encouraging, and made her education a priority. Winfrey became an honors student, was voted Most Popular Girl, and joined her high school speech team at East Nashville High School, placing second in the nation in dramatic interpretation.

Winfrey's first job as a teenager was working at a local grocery store. At the age of 17, Winfrey won the Miss Black Tennessee beauty pageant. She also attracted the attention of the local black radio station, WVOL, which hired her to do the news part-time. She worked there during her senior year of high school and in her first two years of college. She had won an oratory contest, which secured her a full scholarship to Tennessee State University, a historically black institution, where she studied communication. However, she did not deliver her final paper and receive her degree until 1987, by which time she was a successful television personality.

If People Acted Like They Do on Dating Apps

YoussefAbdel-Rahman · 2022-02-06T11:54:37+00:00

I posted about paternity fraud, a men are dogs comment, and crying babies in the past hour and there's 2 youtube nursery songs, one dog show article, and one BBC article about a couple who find out that dad wasn't the real father in my feed. I have never had a god damned nursery song recommended to me ever, in years.

I think they're actually pulling keywords out of my input stream. Is that legal? Seems hugely invasive.

Women: I prefer it when men show the initiative and ask me out. I will rather not do it myself

Also Women: Eww, i am just going to the bar to have fun, why are guys hitting on me

Women: Men just hit on anyone who smiles at them.

Also Women: When i like a man i give him hints and he should make the move. What hints? oh i smile at them and laugh at their jokes

Women: I hate gender roles

Also Women: Men should be the ones to make the first move, pay for the date and propose to women.

How can you not see that the behaviours from men are the flipped side of the coin behaviour from women?

YoussefAbdel-Rahman · 2022-02-06T10:07:48+00:00

One time I was lying down with a girl I was dating and she was yammering about something trivial, asking me questions, saying this and that, gently poking my chest to accentuate thoughts.. and I started crying. I didn't feel sad leading up to it. I didn't feel sad while it happened. My eyes just filled with tears with no warning and I had to pause and compose myself. I'm not a crier. I think it was kind of like the tears a parent might have when they're sleep deprived at 2 AM and their baby won't stop screaming.

YoussefAbdel-Rahman · 2022-02-06T09:17:23+00:00

Hot take: paternity fraud is the female perpetrated equivalent of male perpetrated rape. In both cases you've stolen a person ability to consciously consent to who they reproduce with (woman's primary contribution to the reproduction) or whose child they provide for and help raise (men's primary contribution). In both cases you remove choice and impose your selfish desires in an area humanity universally considers to have the highest personal right to integrity and autonomy. Legal policies like alimony despite paternity fraud and banning DNA testing (as in France) demonstrate a pernicious female-rape culture far more real and entrenched than anything feminists have tried to insert into the cultural narrative.

Also: cuckold fetishism is the male equivalent of women's rape fetishes. Both can and often do result from trauma around loss of reproductive agency.

So I'm not the most attractive guy but I do have nice blue eyes. Been experimenting with holding eye contact with a soft expression on my face while taking to women.

I have done this before when pulled over by female cops (never gotten a ticket, idk if that's why) but it's a pretty exhausting habit to pull off because it goes against my nature. It's a great tool to have to get women to be on my side and more willing to help me. If I'm shopping and ask if something is in the back it seems they're more likely to blow me off if I'm not doing this.

Yes I'm autistic.

I get that SAD is a thing but I mean, it feels like over the last few weeks it's gotten worse for us as a collective culture. I even signed up for Tiktok with a brand new account and this kind of mood seems to be nearly as ubiquitous as tikthots and random trivia posts right now in terms of Tiktok trying to throw stuff at me just to see what I'll respond to.

Social Distortion's guatar player wrote a song that perfectly describes my love life:

Hope Dies Hard by Jonny Wickersham.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDpccypDSB8

Lyrics:
I guess the years, they don't amount to much
We were thick as thieves for awhile
But I saw it in your eyes, the moment you realized
You don't love me anymore
You don't love me anymore
I should have listened to that little voice inside
I should have listened to my friends
But I failed to see the truth
chose to ignore the proof
Then the rain came falling down
All the rain came falling down
Hope Dies Hard.
I guess the tears, they don't account for much
They just evaporate into night along with all hope
But I saw it in your eyes, the moment you realized
You don't love me anymore
You don't love me anymore
Hope Dies Hard.

Why do so many users here not know what average is?

Women screaming that $100k salary is average and nothing special? 6'0 is nothing? Men thinking that most women are sluts with 30 exes?

What's going on lol

WilliamWyattD · 2022-02-05T23:24:28+00:00

I know a couple of women who are decent looking, but rarely find guys attractive. That's even if they get to know them, are courted right, emotional connection, etc. Could be how these women are built, how socialization impacted them, or some combination. But regardless, they don't have a sex a lot and are not in a relationship currently. That said, sex drive is not low when they find someone attractive--just rarely happens.

As a result, when that rare guy who is attractive enters their lives in some way, and is available, they tend to do stupid stuff. They will sleep with them if they can, even knowing the guys may be out of their league and a relationship won't happen. When in a relationship with a guy they find attractive, they tend to let him get away with a lot of shit. Sometimes get treated badly. I mean they have limits. But according to the girls, they basically are in a weirdly similar position to low-tier men who are so desperate to get any sex that they let some women take advantage of them. In this case, guys these girls feel they can sleep with are so rare for them, that they knowingly and willingly do stupid shit just to get some sex, since sex is rare for them.

The girls aren't entitled. They know their level. They know guys on their level don't interest them. They kinda wish they did. But just not how they are built.

Do you think this is common? Any other girls feel that way?

WilliamWyattD · 2022-02-05T21:40:56+00:00

I find it interesting that hetero women are a big part of gay culture, often idealized. Lots of women around many gay cultural events. Gay guys have female friends, etc.

Meanwhile, lesbians seem to either hate men, or just have no time for them. Even butch lesbians who mimic men in many ways still have little interest in having actual men around.

No idea what it means, but it is interesting.

EDIT: OK. I may have overstated the extent to which lesbians don't associate with men. Lots of individual variance, for sure. But that's really a red herring. The point is that there is a clear and pronounced asymmetry here that is interesting.

WilliamWyattD · 2022-02-06T17:23:21+00:00

Back kicking my dead horse again.

On a macro level, how large would the male / female attraction gap be if men changed their behavior to better meet modern female priorities? Men can't be expected to work harder than women overall in life just because women have more sexual leverage (unless, of course, maybe they can--bit different discussion). But what if men better prioritized their efforts?

So if men took better care of themselves physically, had better online profiles, warmed girls up the right way (get over the reactive vs. active sexuality thing), etc., would there still be a large attraction gap? Could male sexlessness go down? Could we get back to high levels of monogamy, but this time without women sacrificing sexually?

This is how you calculate male SMV on OLD.

He’s an SMV 8ish and a HB 6/7ish.

HB = ~~Hot Bitch~~ Hot Boy 1-10 face aesthetics scale.

But if I wanted to be super nerdy let’s average all of the below:

West Elm Caleb’s OLD SMV Composition from POV of Women in His Niche:

HB (Face): 6.5
Physique: idk he seems kind of slight in the shoulder widths and not like he works out (though I can’t tell tbf) but not fat either so imma say 6
Height: he’s 6’4 which puts him in the 99 percentile of American men, so I’ll say he’s a 10
Style: cool, quirky, well-fitted, and a grooming sensibility that works for his scene, so 7.5
Status: a job that many in his scene covets, so 8.5

He’s an SMV 7.7 — our ballpark 8ish was right on purplish_possum!

WilliamWyattD · 2022-02-06T22:03:54+00:00

Imagine the gap in physical attractiveness between the most idealized men seen on screen and images and the average Joe, factoring in the obesity epidemic.

Now imagine that gap for women. I'm wondering if, in some 'objective' way, that gap is much larger for men. Maybe men are more variable, so the highs are further from average. Maybe you can push a man's beauty further at the top end with gym work than you can for a woman. Maybe the extra weight on Joe Average, especially when compared to ripped models and film stars, hurts male attractiveness more than women's.

Anyways, riffing with random thoughts, but may be some truth here and it may somehow be relevant.

Lots of women here seem to admit at least when it comes to casual sex they obviously go for the most attractive guys and kinda rub it like "you'd do the same if you had the options that we do🤷‍♀️"

I'm curious, would sugar dating be the closest equivalent for men to what the normal dating apps are like for women ? Like similar to how an average woman can easily "explore her sexuality" with hotter guys on Tinder or Bumble do sugar apps like Seeking let average looking men explore their sexuality with hotter women ?

I’m watching Unsolved Mysteries, and it’s amazing how different accents are processed so differently by non-speakers

The French people they’re interviewing about a family massacre all seem so understated and not worked up at all - they could be discussing the weather

Meanwhile, other languages always seem angry to me - Asian languages, certain Spanish speakers, Germans. They all seem like they’re fighting, even if they’re chatting about something light hearted
