Colorado embraces broad law requiring patient consent for pelvic exams while sedated: at least 20 other states that have consent laws on the books. But Colorado's goes far beyond other states' because it requires that the medical students be named ahead of time and meet the patient

Colorado Becomes the First State to Limit Court Use of Family Reunification Camps: A new bill restricts the use of reunification programs and requires domestic violence training for experts in custody cases.

Colorado is like the anti Florida. They're passing all sorts of women's rights and lgbt rights.

I have a question, especially for religious people.

Is it a red flag if a guy doesn't want to talk about his sexual past?

I'm no longer a muslin, but I know it's important to talk about your view about relationships, if you're a virgin and if you had partners in your past before marrying someone.

Is it the same for the other religion?

Q4A: If I use meth and my teeth get fucked up as a result, how dumb would I look trying to advocate for non-chewable food because I can't eat properly due to my years of meth usage? 🤔

I just got a lady's number at a party. We talked a little & she was friendly & seemed interested in what I had to say, though not flirty. I asked for her social media first but she said she had none, so I asked for her number instead. There were other people around so this was an unusually ballsy move on my part (keep in mind that I'm quite likely autistic & have always struggled with women).

Do you think she's into me or just didn't want to make an awkward scene by declining to give me her number while we were leaving & there were other people around?

How soon should I contact her, & how long should we talk before I ask her out?

Shaming people for something that is out of their control isn’t ok. Why can’t we shame people for decisions that are in their control? Why can’t we shame fatties? 99% of obese people are not obese from a medical condition, it’s very curable. I realized how rare obesity was when I lived in different countries in the late 90’s. You aren’t plus sized you are fat. Deal with it. As an aside why in modern times are women plus sized but men are fat? Isn’t that sexist?

Q4W: What part of a man's body, do you find physically attractive? -

Is it the abs, back, guns, buns, calves, arms, joystick, chest, shoulders, etc?

Correct-Warthog-9061 · 2023-05-28T04:00:29+00:00

This looks vs personality conversation really has me on the ropes.

If there's a looks threshold for women, then honestly there's no reason to work on ur personality if ur not attractive enough. A glo-up has to your main priority.

Its like engineering, if ur technical skills suck, then ur not even gonna get invited to behavioral interview.

I always held charisma to a high regard, but now that I think about it, in terms of giving advice, maybe just being more attractive is probably the best advice

People underestimate how high school shape men's attitude toward men.

I personally "don't want to grow up" in this matter. I won't forgive how I was treated like crap for years for the sake of potentially finding a "wife" and overlook how I was treated .

That's why I completely condone and support men who are like me and get their revenge on women who ridiculed them back either by having sex and ghosting them, putting them through emotional stress, or harming them psychologically in a relationship.

That's how it should be.

Because when I was a kid I still remember what girls did to me and that shape my attitude toward women right now. I personally don't think I will either love or like one. I don't want sex anymore. No. I want to get revenge one way or another. Specifically on girls with who I went to high school with.

1 year ago, I meet at Uni this girl with who I went to high school with. Didn't expect to meet her actually(we were both international students at the time and the fact we meet in the same city, less the same school was crazy.)

She tries to do buddy buddy with me but I told her what I have my mind this day: how much I hate her, how much I hate other girls in our class and how I hope to never see her again and how high school was a nightmare for me.

It creates an awkward atmosphere. Her fake smile disappeared and she looked at me confused and weirded out. But I was happy. I told her what I think and that's the most important thing for me.

I also don't care about many things now. In the past, women used to be grossed ou just at my sight or by me just existing. And it affects me a lot. Now I don't care. They are still grossed out but now I don't let it affects me. I also don't have this weight on my shoulder to impress stupidly women. Because I know that whatever happens they will be grossed out so I can now act normally.

I am also happy I now don't take a woman being nice to me as some kind of interest in me. She is either nice because she is nice naturally(she will treat everyone the same. I am not "special"), out of pity or because she is expecting something from me.

Top post on /r/tinder right now is a girl posting about a guy she matched with who used for her purely for sex a few years ago while he was still dating another girl. Apparently this ruined her reputation among her friends and she thinks he's a dick because of it.

However, said dude is tall and jacked so shes saying in the comments that she'd gladly fuck him again and that's why she matched with him.

Ladies, this is why men straight up just don't believe a word you say when it comes to your dating intentions.

Royal-Tip4585 · 2023-05-28T02:11:48+00:00

Update on the my roommates martial arts drama. The one girl in the class likes him now. He’s not looking for anything and also joined to make friends. She more or less will make things awkward.

So he’s been more or less ignoring her in class. She left early but it’s better for him to shut this down asap.

Tldr: my roommate who’s the pretty boy type wanted to find homies and so joined a martial arts class. Only girl in the class likes him and there’s others in the class that like her. So he’s been acting cold to get rid of any potential risk of being accepted by the group and making homies.

VastlyVainVanity · 2023-05-28T01:12:20+00:00

So I was having a conversation with a Chad-ish friend of mine some time ago that I wanted to share here.

Basically, it's about how the behavior that some (SOME!) women display, when they act like a man has to pay for the date if they want it to "go somewhere", are basically prostitutes in disguise.

This was related to a female friend of his who once told him that she was going out with a guy who she saw no future with, but when questioned about why she was still going on dates with him she said something like "I like the free food" or something. My friend then said something like "At least he gets sex" and she acted offended lol

Anyway, I just find that borderline prostitution. It's just that it has extra steps and there's no sense of "obligation to have sex" from the woman like there is when an actual prostitute is involved. But if someone has the belief that "If this guy wants sex from me, he'd better pay the bill/give me stuff", then she's basically a prostitute. But would probably be very offended if someone pointed that out lol

Guilty-Instruction60 · 2023-05-28T00:51:48+00:00

High n count women are not good fit for LTR, just like an employer would avoid an employee who has a record changing jobs and see that an issue.

That is Just logical.

No-Pen8713 · 2023-05-28T00:37:21+00:00

I will never understand how some women can be so emotionally devoid. Seriously. And I mean in the sense that they can openly flirt with a guy, have deep conversations with him for hours, do activities/hobbies together, etc. And then just ghost him one day and not care one bit.

It’s truly mind blowing to me. I mean I still think about my crushes from middle school sometimes. Ig that’s what happens when you are constantly inundated with attention??

Specialist-Action-33 · 2023-05-27T23:53:46+00:00

Ladies, if you are fat, then okay you do you. Thats not the problem I have. The problem that I have with fat women is that I keep seeing these videos with them saying something like "This is what I eat in a day..." and shows something like a salad, or will go to the gym and record themselves working out just to push the narrative of "Hey I live a healthy lifestyle but I'm still fat, so it's not my fault. Now I demand my extra seat on the airplane to accommodate my fat body."

We really need to start calling these girls out because theres no fucking way you were eating healthy or working out like that and still became as fat as you are ("I only eat salad every day but somehow I became 22 stone" - yes some of you women in the UK are the biggest offenders). Yea you can say that at least the girl in the gym is working out to lose weight. I would agree, but we all know damn well shes only recording just to try and maka a point about fatphobia. This wouldn't be such an issue if I wasn't exposed to this nearly every day.

As long as I keep seeing videos of fat women lying to themselves and each other, then I will continue to be fatphobic. Protected group my ass.

Edit: Seems like I triggered a lot of people again because of lack holding people accountable for their choices. If I use meth and my teeth get fucked up as a result, how dumb would I look trying to advocate for non-chewable food because I can't eat properly due to my years of meth usage? Thats what fat women try to do claiming fatphobia.

At this point it's abundantly clear to me what women respond to and what I need to be (and what I want to be). It is a very slight shift from where I stand now but feels next to impossible to sustain if I'm not on drugs.

Being 100% unapologetically myself really doesn't come naturally. I am deeply insecure and ashamed of myself down to my very core and I don't think it will ever change. Maybe the "just go to therapy bro" meme could work if I had an extra 10 years to spare to fix a childhood of physical/emotional/sexual abuse but I don't.

saraimarsena · 2023-05-27T22:46:46+00:00

personally i think the whole thing about height is a bit overblown* cuz there’s so much to how a woman’s brain will interpret a man … his gait, how he stands, his confidence, how broad he is … all those things might make a guy come off larger or smaller

*not to say height doesn’t matter at all, bc it does.

like if you take two guys who are 5’9 average height, won’t the one who’s skinny register as smaller to a woman ? plus women cant even judge height that well anyway (i swear half the time you ask a woman to guess how tall her bf is and she’s wrong). and even if they could, if given a man who checks all their boxes and makes them feel great but he’s 5’9 not 6 ft, most times that height standard goes out the window anyway.

ofc there’s a minimum height threshold for many women that doesn’t get any wiggle room. like me, i don’t have pm any interest in dating a man shorter than 5’9.

Am I stupid or do egg whites not make sense?

I can get a 16oz egg white for $9, which has 20 servings of 5 grams of protein.

I can also get a dozen of eggs for $2, if I just throw out the yolk, each egg has 5g protein. So if I do that with 2 dozens I get 24 servings of egg whites for $4 vs just buying egg whites..?

EulenWatcher · 2023-05-27T20:49:03+00:00

u/Comeino , I'll reply here

To show that they want to care for you. It's part of the mating dance for most social species, for one to play the role of a dependant being cared for and for the other to be the caretaker. I love spoiling my younger sister for example out of a very close familial relationship and pay for most of our dining meals per month (about 10-13, we frequently eat out). She also pays for the few of the meals, just to show she cares and finds new interesting places to go to. I don't expect her to love me in a sexual way or to have kids lol, it's just because I love her as my sister and as family. I'll do the same for my partner once we close the long distance. It's a way to show affection and care. What the fuck would one even spend money on if not loved ones? What would be even the point of earning it if you can't have a good time, care for others and feel happy?

Ppl who can't afford to pay for meals for God sake really should focus on self development and building their career instead of looking for a relationship. Relationships are an investment of huge amount of time and resources into your partner that you WANT to lift up and thrive. Why else would one even try to get a partner if not to care for them? The splitting cost argument for food is a red flag of financial insecurity. It costs less then $200 usually, it shouldn't be a big deal at all, it's spare change.

Here's the important part imv: I'll do the same for my partner once we close the long distance. It's a way to show affection and care.

If it's a date and you both want to get to know each other, I don't see much sense in expecting or pushing men to pay for everything. If you're both interested in spending time together, it makes sense that you both pay or you pay in turns to show exactly what you're talking about - your care and willingness to take care of each other. Leaving it solely to men makes it one-sided.

EulenWatcher · 2023-05-27T20:46:12+00:00

u/nexkell , I'll reply here.

>I agree that some men envy women

Come on now, we all know its all men.

>Splitting the bill is sensible

And its something women push back against unless they don't want to see the guy again then they split the bill. Turns out women don't want to give up men's gender roles, but women want to walk away from their gender roles.

I'm pretty sure not all men are envious of women. There are men who like being men and have "good cards" to play as men.

I think the norm slowly moves towards splitting the bill or paying in turns, but it's something that men should push for. People rarely just give up something that benefits them. I did pay for our dates though and not because I didn't want to see him again. In fact, we got married.

People have a moral obligation to live a healthy lifestyle.

I’m not saying you have to eat kale and never have fast food again. But people who say “it doesn’t affect you!” about smoking and obesity are misinformed.

Hospitals are already overwhelmed. We need to reserve space for people who contract diseases beyond their control.

Soon we’re gonna run out of nurses and hospital space for people who knowingly make themselves sick with shitty habits. Someone who ate himself to 300 lbs. should not get priority over someone who lived a healthy lifestyle and still developed ALS.

I know there are a lot of contributing factors to obesity, and obesity is a disease. But there are too many people who refuse to do anything about it and act entitled to whatever healthcare they will need due to poor decision-making, even if it means putting unnecessary strain on an already-failing healthcare system.

It’s a simple equation. More unhealthy people = more strain on healthcare system. Even if we had the perfect most efficient healthcare, we’d still be struggling.

The pandemic was only as bad as it was because of all the obese people dying in the ICU. If we had a population of healthier people it would have been nowhere near as bad. The healthcare system almost collapsed and is still on its last leg because people refuse to take care of their bodies.

My local hospital just shut down another floor. Our nurses are each assigned 8+ patients (this is an insane ratio for people who don’t know). ICU nurses have 2-3 patients each.

Don’t expect good healthcare if you go to the hospital. The nurses are too busy finding 3-4 people to help them turn their multiple morbidly obese patients.

I'm gonna take this as an opportunity to blogpost about why viewpoints like the ones described in the "I don’t think men on here have a single clue about how women interpret attention from the opposite sex" thread continually fall on deaf ears with men, this is a good example to use because they didn't try to make it entirely about safety concerns.

Motives can be projected onto people, it's difficult to disprove the idea that you just view women as pieces of meat if feminists are insisting all men are pigs all day every day (the man in question, meanwhile, might just want a date).

The reason why men aren't sympathetic is because if they're not currently successful with women, they know THEY'RE the ones being viewed as undesirable pigs, rightly or wrongly. Therefore, when women argue male attention doesn't mean anything because male attention is disgusting, it comes across as "Won't you please be sympathetic for how disgusting and contemptible I find you 🥺", because that's exactly what it is.

The next step is realising that men trying to be 'one of the good ones' isn't going to move them into the desirable category either - a quiet pig nodding its head is still a pig.

VTHokie2020 · 2023-05-27T18:40:24+00:00

When I think about it, I don't really admire any of my (current) lady friends. I respect them out of decency, but not out of admiration like I do some of my guy friends. If they were guys, I wouldn't be friends with them because I think they're boring to be around and unmotivated. I can't think of a single deep or interesting conversation I had with any of them in the past year. Maybe one.

I can honestly say that I like having them as friends because of the social proof that knowing women gets you with other women. If I go to a festival, or an event, or have a party or something it's good to have them around in case I meet other women. In those cases, other women tend to be marginally more open to talking to our group as opposed to if it were just us guys.

But when I think about them and their hobbies they're mostly into board games? I think one of them hosted something like two years ago. But in our social group it's usually the guys who put everything together, they sort of just show up.

This sub irreversibly fucked me up. I see all people as objects with some sort of value to me. Or maybe I found this sub because of that.

America is filled with pathetically incompetent and obese people. All you have to do is look at the commonly trending Twitter thread (like the one linked below) and see this.

The United States of America — land of the oligarchs; home of the obese.

https://twitter.com/punishedmother/status/1662201562931015680

And for people saying, "Oh but they do have EDs!" — that's not the point, I'm referring to people who can't even accept the basic, clinical definition of what obesity is at a fundamental level. People have been so brainwashed (either due to their own insecurity and/or women loving to tell themselves baseless platitudes with no basis in reality) that they actually think an obese person is 'normal and healthy'. The underweight girl with an ED is much closer to ideal health than the obese woman is.

Prolonged obesity is really bad, because it permanently negatively affects your body's satiety signals. It will almost always be easier to get a skinnier person to eat a little more than it will be to get a fat person to eat a little less. The underweight person is also at considerably lower risk of chronic health issues relative to the overweight or obese person.

EDIT: Also, just FYI, my ideal type isn't really on either side, actually maybe somewhere around the two in the middle on the left hand side.

Many many years ago I was forced into a sexual act by a boyfriend and was really traumatized by it, making that act difficult to impossible to perform in later relationships. I (foolishly) confided in my husband, thinking he’d understand the stress it caused me and would forgo that particular act. I was wrong. He held it against me our entire marriage. Makes me angry just typing that.

Men are literally the worst sometimes. One ex boyfriend forces you into anal and now every man you're with is going to push for it if hear your ass isn't a virgin.

I find it interésting how my grandmother and my mother are both extremely Christian but also extremely pro choice. Both grew up in area with incredibly high infant/maternal mortality rates and lack of reproductive autonomy. My mom almost died giving birth to me, my grandmother knows women who died in childbirth as well as she had 2 stillborn children. This is in an area with very subpar healthcare. I feel like so many American pro lifers just live incredibly sheltered lives to the point where they literally can’t comprehend the ramifications of a total abortion ban. All they see is more babies = good

Also I feel like pro life doesn’t even make sense Christianity wise because if you went back to biblical times and tried to convince people a fetus was as valuable as a fully developed child/human they would just look at you like you’re insane. Like throughout history many people literally just wouldn’t name their child or become attached to it until a certain point because there was always a chance the baby could just die at any time and they wanted to spare themselves some of the trauma. Just my thoughts though.

Man I always suspected the soft starchy diet that most people eat these days is contributing to ugly, underdeveloped, jaws. And now there is research to prove it. It's not just about muscle, physical forces literally affect how your bones grow and develop.

People need to eat less slop and more whole(not ground) meat. Work those masseters. This is what humans are best adapted to eating. You think early human hunter-gatherers had an abundance of soft plant foods? Hell no, especially not in the cold and dry Pleistocene earth they lived in.

I ate an incredible amount of meat growing up and my maxilla and mandible are both quite well developed. Be like me SMH.

Yesterday I heard a married guy in his mid-thirties talk about how he sees women under thirty as children and could never date them. He looked like he felt so smug while saying that at the bar. I don’t understand the superiority complex there. Some men like young women, some like women their age. If I were single I’d hop in bed with a forty year old man no problem. I wouldn’t think he’s a predator, I’d think he likes young women.

If you don’t get pussy as a man you’ll at some point have it thrown in your face. Especially if you are anti high n-count women.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PurplePillDebate/comments/13tecqr/most_womens_gendered_expectations_of_men_are/

This is a really fantastic post. Most women lazily write it off as men just being misogynistic (the concept of morality being gendered is idiotic for reasons obvious to anyone with an IQ over like 80) What women don't realize is that there are commonalities and experiences men can relate to/resonate with intertwined within the manosphere's content.

This is how Andrew Tate went viral. It's how a useless fraud with no real relationship experiences who regurgitates other people's ideas like pearl gained so many subs. It's how dumbasses like donovan sharpe (trashes single mother but dates an older single mother, who btw is lovely and could do a lot better than him) and modernlifedating (ugly prick who has physically assaulted women) have a platform.

The manosphere in it's present state is toxic...but it's a symptom/response. I mean in the askfeminists sub women are defending the are we dating the same guy subs, where legal defamation of character is occurring (owner is literally asking for donations for legal fees). It's just flat out socially acceptable to shit on men, and until people recognize and stop doing that there will continuously be some other toxic man to come along and gain an audience. White knights who sell out their fellow men for brownie points, and there's several of them on this sub, are a big reason for why misandry is so socially acceptable, and why there is so much gender-related and right wing push back over the last few years.

Wonder if slightly androgynous women are having bad dating lives cause of the whole trans stuff.

Cause I’ve seen more of these normal looking girls not get any attention and the comments when they ask asking them if they’re dudes.

In Scotland men could face 7 years in jail for loudly boasting about sexual conquests. I thought that they would get around the sexism question by applying the law to everyone, but women are exempt. 😭😭😭

William Wallace would be ashamed. Pull up your kilts and stand up against nonsense.

For the New Year—‘I still live, I still think: I still have to live, for I still have to think. Sum, ergo cogito: cogito, ergo sum. Today everybody permits himself the expression of his wish and his dearest thought: hence I, too, shall say what it is that I wish from myself today, and what was the first thought to run across my heart this year – what thought shall be for me the reason, warranty, and sweetness of my life henceforth. I want to learn to see more and more as beautiful what is necessary in things; then I shall be one of those who makes things beautiful. Amor fati: let that be my love henceforth! I do not want to wage war against what is ugly. I do not want to accuse. Looking away shall be my only negation. And all and all and on the whole: someday I wish to be only a Yes-sayer.’

Regret is a tricky thing.

It means you're self aware, yet holding on to something potentially harmful.

Regret is ok as long as you learn from it. However, make sure it doesn't consume you.

If you're alive today, that means you have another shot to build the life you want. To act differently & think differently.

The first step is always the hardest, but the most necessary. Moving forward is what ensures you don't get stuck again.

Onward.

JumboJetz · 2023-05-28T18:40:46+00:00

I think a lot of men in dating do the equivalent of “going to the grocery store while hungry” when dating.

Namely I think the reason PPD men think male standards are so low is that they are low when a man has been sexless for a long time. However if that man gets a fat, mess of a woman to date and fuck him i suspect in many cases after a month or two of fucking he is no longer “hungry” and seeks to actually not grab the first thing he sees at the proverbial grocery store.

Young men, please find a woman that is willing to rise up and fight for the relationship. Look for actions that match words and ignore these promiscuous women, they tend to make terrible long term partners.

My GF’s co worker invited her to her wedding so I had to go yesterday but I hate weddings in general though. I don’t like church so that’s kinda the first red flag for me, I wanted to just go to the reception but she said nah lol. The food was awful too(how you fuck up chicken?) I had to pick up takeout on the way home

Wish people would stop with the "Tehee your mindset is why you're single" when someone is just being blunt and honest about their situation.

It's like if someone was ranting about his shitty boss. How he only promotes people he likes, doesn't understand the actual project, etc. Then someone swoops in and says: "Akschually the reason why your project is going bad is because you hate your boss. Your vibe around your boss is bad, he FEELS it!"

Or someone ranting about how he is sad because they failed their driving exam for the xth time. Someone then says: "Akschually the reason why you're failing is because of your sad demeanor around the driving instructor. He FEELS you're not ready!"

It's all just feel good nonsense. If you did not properly learn for an exam and go in with the mindset "I will pass the exam", you're not suddenly going to pass it.

The Oxford Dictionary defines emotional labor as something that happens disproportionately to women. Thoughts?

According to Oxford Languages:

emotional labour

noun

the mental activity required to manage or perform the routine tasks necessary for maintaining relationships and ensuring smooth running of a household or process, typically regarded as an unappreciated or unacknowledged burden borne disproportionately by women.

"she wondered what would happen in a household where nobody did the emotional labour"

the management of one's emotions in order to present oneself and interact with other people in a certain way while doing a job.

"in the airline industry emotional labour is vital to the success of the product"

Assertions that women didn't go for muscles in the past triggered a memory from 1985.

A GF and I rented a VHS of the first Terminator movie. We had to watch it at her parents place because they were the only ones with a VHS player. As we were settling in to watch the movie GF's mom asked what we were going to watch. We told her and her response was -- "that's the one with the muscle guy?" She proceeded to make herself comfortable next to us and oggled Arnie for the entire movie.

GF's mom was married to a successful lawyer. They lived in one of the nicest parts of the city in a house on a bluff overlooking the river. Regardless GF's mom filed for divorce about 18 months later. An early don't be a BB lesson.

This guy is getting flamed just for stating his preference on a dating app. Meanwhile you see women on that sub argue that any preference a woman has is valid. The hypocrisy is just bizzare.

If you ask me, the abortion debate is fundamentally about whether women have a fundamental right to sleep with whoever they want without having to deal with inconvenience of a baby. Liberals would say yes they do while conservatives like me would say no they don't. I am not saying that women should only sleep with someone for the sole purpose of having babies. But they should not play the victim card when they do get pregnant since sex is practically designed for reproduction. We could avoid this whole abortion issue for the most part if everyone especially women realized that the best way to avoid pregnancy is to either a. abstain or b. be very careful with protection.
