This is a random and seemingly silly comment, but I just wanted to say that I am not 5'7.5" like I preciously believed, but am actually basically 5'8".

The way I was measuring myself was inaccurate, and when my mom measured me I turned out to be 172.5cm which is basically 5'8" (172.72cm). So where I previously felt like I was lying by saying that I'm 5'8" despite only being 5'7.5", I now think it's more accurate to round up to 5'8".

I know it's pathetic to even care this much but...yeah. Guilty as charged.

Eartha Kitt in 1981:

Eartha: A man comes into my life and you have to compromise? For what? A relationship is a relationship that has to be earned! Not to compromise for. And I love relationships, I think they're fantastically wonderful, I think they're great. I think there's nothing in the world more beautiful than falling in love. But falling in love for the right reasons, falling in love for the right purpose. [...] When you fall in love, what is there to compromise about?

INTERVIEWER: Isn't love a union between two people? Or does Eartha, fall in love with herself?

EARTHA: I think, if you were to think about it in terms of analyzing... Yes. I fall in love with myself, and I want someone to share it with me. I want someone to share me, with me.

(Eartha Kitt was a singer, actress, and activist, "Santa Baby," "Catwoman," Yzma from "Emperor's New Groove." She had a troubled childhood in pre-Civil Rights America, which may have informed her views.)

Ok, I’m risking embarrassment & potential head injury: I am leaving my apartment to go eat at my favorite sushi restaurant right around the corner.

Last time I went there I passed out after only two bites right at the sushi bar. Chaos & pandemonium ensued.

I have some sudden onset mystery health condition that is bedeviling me & it ONLY happens when I eat out in a restaurant?!? 3x within a month 😕 I just cannot spend another day indoors on Reddit (no offense) or researching wtf it could be on medical sites. I need interaction with the exterior world and I really really need this particular sushi 🍣

Maybe I need to buy a helmet for my dining out adventures?

I don’t think you can have a reasonable discussion on cold approaching until we define what’s a “successful” approach. Is it just getting the number? Is it an in person meeting After the number? Do I have to sleep with them?

This is important because it’s being compared with other methods of “getting” girls in terms of success rates. Cause dudes will be like you approached 20 girls this week and only got 2 numbers, but then he swiped on 150 girls this week and got 1. Another thing should be noted is you are also investing very little into the approaches. How long is the average one, 3-5 mins maybe? 99% of the time when I got a number from a cold approach it lasted less than 10 mins unless it was like a club environment.

How big a factor does your job play in where you buy your home?

I know someone who bought a house they weren’t THAT high on because it was about 20 mins from their place of work and then they got fired like less than 16 months from buying it. I think with more people working from home and more movement in the workplace in general it’s not as big a factor. When I bought my house where I worked was like number 9 on my list of priorities

Yes dating apps and social media have changed the game but my god the world is not some dystopia

Sofia Vergara just divorced Joe fucking Manganiello. The guy is a complete stud and Sofia said “Im out” once he brought up having kids. According to you blackpillers, since hes top 10%, she should have been under his chad spell and had his kids right???????

Please get the fuck away from blackpill content before you drive yourselves insane

You're one of the first people connected to fully immersive hyper-realistic virtual reality. You could experience any fantasy you ever imagined, real-life level of realism no matter how ridiculous or fucked up it is, but it has to be sexual and you can only do it once. You could be whoever you want or amplify your feelings whatever way you like. No matter what you do, in real life there wont be any consequences for you health and no one will ever know what you did, except you.

What would you do?

Men complain that they’re sooooo lonely and have no support but brag about how they have close friends they don’t know anything about. Where’s the disconnect?

Saw a TikTok comment of a guy saying he recently found out his best friend of 12 years was adopted. Don’t know the basics of your friend’s family and never talked about the emotional distress that adoption causes (abandonment issues, fear of rejection, identity problems).

My girl had a baby 1.5 months ago and her fiancé said only one of his friends had been to visit them yet. Life changing moment like becoming a father, and nobody could take a couple hours out of their day to come and visit? Men aren’t into babies like that, which is fair, but no support for your friend? Fathers struggle with the adjustment too. I was stressing because I wanted to visit asap but couldn’t because of circumstance but his friends don’t even have plans to.

Men want emotional support but don’t even give it to each other, and seem to take pride in that. Which is it? Obligatory not all men of course and not trying to say how men should or shouldn’t conduct their friendships. Just trying to understand what support guys want, and what seems to be stopping you from giving it to each other

Pizzashillsmom · 2023-07-31T13:31:38+00:00

He’s dating younger women since he can’t women his age

Okay and? Since older women are so difficult to attract isn’t the right thing to do for this less attractive man to “lower” his “standards” to where he can get one. A man shouldn’t have to stay single just because women in his own age group doesn’t want to date him if women in other age groups want to.

Pizzashillsmom · 2023-07-31T13:55:00+00:00

The problem for most men is that we aren’t as bisexual as women are. For men cuddling up with a woman and watching a movie would be mega gay and super icky, while for women that’s just a Saturday night with your bestie. Women aren’t turned off by being intimate with women, ie they’re a little bisexual while men are generally turned off at any intimacy beyond a bro hug.

Okay, my hiking trip is planned and the accommodations are booked. I just need to finish acquiring the rest of my gear, clean the house, and purchase the food we will eat.

On Saturday, Hubby and I talked about it some more, and he again mentioned feeling left out. So on Sunday, I took him swimming and hiking. He was not super into the water, and did not have fun on the hike. So hopefully he feels less left out.

Anytime I see someone talk shit about their supposed "awful" ex or post or do stuff to give them the "fuck you" I'll just automatically assume you're still in love with them and want them back.

If you're truly over someone, you don't think about them at all anymore.

SeveralSadEvenings · 2023-07-31T14:44:48+00:00

Husband ended up attending the housewarming party I didn't want to attend. He said the party was fine, until around 10pm wherein it turned into a weird sex n' drugs party. Normally we're not opposed to that sort of thing, but he said this one had a bad vibe to it.

At some point husband had his drink spiked, he thinks it was the young woman that was stalking him all night long and being very inappropriate (cornering him, molesty, trying to get him alone, insisting on getting him drinks, etc.)

He ended up calling me around 1am begging for an uber, saying he couldn't think straight but the 'creepy spider woman' wouldn't leave him alone and he felt unsafe. He got home, crashed, but the next morning had no recollection of the phone call or most of the night.

We pieced together what happened via his two cousins who were there (one was sober, the other was the host). Creepy spider woman did exist, and she was fixated on my husband. She was 23 years old and knew the host from when they were both at an inpatient psych center.

So it turns out creepy-rapey behavior isn't just the purview of men.

Main-Leek7908 · 2023-07-31T15:04:34+00:00

I am not down for the romanticization of dating broke, yet-to-be successful men with the mentality of “growing together.” There is no reason that you can’t continue “growing together” even after he is already successful. It is inherently riskier to commit to and invest in a man that you think will eventually be successful, rather than one you already know is successful, when you are equally capable of developing feelings for either.

The men who bitch and moan about female attraction need to come to grips with the fact that the average woman’s testosterone levels is like 1/100th that of the average man

They will NEVER feel the attraction/arousal to men that men feel to them. They are literally biologically incapable of doing so with is why they only feel that way for a certain percentage

Just looked at the post about how most men catch feelings for their female friends while women don't for their male friends and immediately thought about how all those women in the thread about a majority men just seeming like asexual NPCs to women were talking about how if those NPC men just come and talk to us we might find them attractive if they are engaging, funny, smart, interesting or whatever. Seems like most those guys just end up as friends lol.

Initial attraction, the spark of interest before any interaction, is very important if you want the relationship to progress beyond friends.

"In the past women generally couldn't work, and so they needed a man to provide for them and pay for dates and so on. Now it's 2023, and there's still many women who want to be provided for and have men pay for dates, even though they now have the equal opportunities"

I said this the other day with my friends

Even though now women have equal opportunities and more of them in higher institutions than men

Yet somehow they still pursue same careers

Teaching,nursing,fashion,therapy/psychology

But when looking at the high intelligent competitive fields

Science,mathematics,engineering,technical stuff

You'll find most are men

Republicans make me like Joe Biden more and more everyday. I see a lot of myself and my dad in him and his son Hunter.

They shove their relationship down our throats daily, so all I see is a dad who loves and supports his son unconditionally no different than mine does me. As sons who indulge in a particular lifestyle, it’s amazing having a dad who’s values aren’t rooted in how strict conservatism is.

There’s so many men my age who are sexless because their lives were shaped by an expectation to live perfect, mistake-free lives and not indulge in guilty pleasures. Being a dad who doesn’t shelter their sons into a such a miserable way of life is only gonna make me want to vote for that person more.

does the media skew girls' perceptions of their own physical strength compared to men? I can't recall a single memorable fight scene in movies or tv shows between a man vs woman where the man actually beats the shit out of her, it's always the other way around.

and then girls watch these movies and think if they take some kickboxing classes they'll actually be able to beat a man who has no training.

and then I continually see shit like women's pro soccer teams getting rocked by teenage boys, serena williams getting destroyed by a rank 50 man, etc. etc. which could be explained by nothing but pure delusion

I continually see stories about women play wrestling with their boyfriends and then realizing how strong he is.

Myself, as a man, I didn't even know there was a major strength gap until the latter half of my teens.

That feminine social conditioning among so many men growing up is something that's always been hard to confront among them

Your told from your mother "be a good boy and treat her right"

Told by female teachers "don't be rough with girls"

Told by many people "don't speak to a woman like that"

A pattern from generation to generation just keeps on going on inside many women growing up

And it can/does have a huge impact on your dating life or just interacting with women in general

Q4Men: What’s the most amount of money in total you have ever spent on a woman before you had sex with her?

For example Russell Wilson famously did not have sex with Ciara before they got married. They dated for over a year before tying the not, so he probably spent thousands upon thousands of dollars on gifts/dates before he got some buns.

aging feminists and aging TRP guys are different sides of the same horseshoe.

many of them have resentment for normal relationships and want to punish the opposite sex.

the aging feminists are still fighting a war that was pretty fun in college listening to le tigre and Sleater-Kinney shouting now stale talking points about the male birth control pill. i was there too.

the TRP guys are mostly gen Xers with muscles and guts, and not the bravery kind. they just wanna fuck fuck fuck, and think they've figured out the secret of reality, but don't realize its just dressed up nihilism and hedonism.

they both come here because it gives them a platform to get converts into their cults of misery.

these folks are already ruined and lost. their debate with each other results in a forever stalemate.

to everyone else here, there is a genuine one-struggle to try to fix relations between the sexes.

Q4All: For those of you who think Western liberal Feminist capitalist society is and awful....

Can you name a time when things weren't awful?

Was it when we were hunter gatherers and spent all of our time hiding from bears?

Was it during the the agricultural revolution when we all swore fealty to the God-King Gilgamesh and then died because the harvest failed?

Was it during the Greco-Persian wars when (obviously ancient historians did not exaggerate numbers at all!) Billions upon Blillions of Persians and Greeks fought to the death?

Was it during the Roman Era when Julius Caesar did a really neat genocide of the Gaulic people (ew, proto-French 🤮).

Was it during the middle ages when we were burning the fuck out of witches for infecting our entire family (who died horribly) with plague?

Was it during the renaissance when everyone was crowded into cities and died because santitatoin was shit?

Was it during the industrial revolution when Luddites starved to death because they lost their job and there was no social safety net?

Was it during the 1800's when large empires decided to colonize the world and destroy huge swaths of people along with just killing each for world power?

Was it during the 1920s when black people couldn't vote, women were property, and only a small percentage of people ever left the factory floor to live a normal life?

Was it during the 1940s when...I mean we know the 1940s.

Tell me, when was society not shit if you believe it is currently shit?

Shouldn't a better statement be:

Things have always been shit, but they have always progressively gotten less shit as time has gone on

It still shocks me the amount of adults who still seek validation for the sake of validation.

Like women who complain “We’re judged for EVERYTHING WE DO!” havent figured out to just do what they want. If you know you’ll always be judged, then might as well be happy while being judged.

Or guys obsessed with losing their virginity or fucking a Stacy so other guys think they’re cool. All I can say is how fucking sad that is.

Is there any real substitute for strength training for men ? Like..I can go cycling or play team sports for three times a week but none of them actually increases my fitness or the resilience of my body. I'll end up with aching muscles every single time.

Main-Leek7908 · 2023-07-31T21:16:26+00:00

I’ve seen a lot of people on here insisting women look good into their 30s “as long as they take care of themselves,” but I think even the ones who do take really good care of themselves still look aged. Like, they don’t look the way they did when they were 20 and you know they’re 30+ still… collagen and estrogen production slow down, you know? Women get looser-looking and saggier and have marionette lines.

Men get wrinkled, but I think it looks just fine on them. They get bigger and thicker. Even the salt-and-pepper gray looks “distinguished” instead of run-down. If their hair starts thinning, they can just shave their heads. Jawline sagging? Just grow a beard.

I think people saying men and women age the same are you-know-what-ing

Imagine being a woman who is old and overweight.

You could be better looking than a majority of young 18-24 year old who are chubby/fattie by just having a healthy (19-21) BMI. Simply being healthy as a woman is a cheat code.

Talking to an OF girl. She's promising a lifetime girlfriend experience if you win her competition. You win the competition by spending more money on her content than anyone else. She doesn't disclose how much you need to spend to win.

If Andrew Tate is being accused of the lover boy method, this is the lover girl method.

I feel like 13-17 yos are dressing and wearing full faces of make up in ways that make them look like full grown adults, and then complaining on the internet about how men are so creepy for leering at children. I’m not victim blaming or anything, but I’m also not sure what they expect to happen.

I will never, ever let my daughter out of the house looking like some of these girls

Excellent-Yam409 · 2023-08-01T03:16:01+00:00

People acting like once a week sex is such a bad thing

But they are forgetting that sometimes the cuddles, handholding, kisses, booty grabs, massages, etc. are just as, if not more intimate.

If those things aren't there, that's not a dead bedroom, that's a dead house.

Excellent-Yam409 · 2023-08-01T03:09:17+00:00

Y'all remember in school when it was considered "cool" to have a girlfriend/boyfriend? If you didn't have one, you felt left out, not "popular." It was actually a marker of status to have a gf/bf!

People in here talk about women wanting high-status men. But don't men use women to increase their status?

How much of this critique of women wanting "high-status men" is actually men competing with each other, trying to be high-achieving and look cool to everyone else?

(I'm not saying some women don't like high-status men. I'm just giving another viewpoint.)

Remote_Indication668 · 2023-08-01T02:32:21+00:00

Another day another front page post whining about how house prices are too high.

If you're too fucking stupid to get a decent job on the coast that pays 200k a year you know what you can do?

Move to Kentucky with the rest of the stupid losers, housing there is cheap and always will be cheap because nobody wants to live there?

Oh, you don't want to do that? You want to be provided a house with an acre yard right next to San Francisco for 160k? THen keep fucking whining because it will never happen. I would totally buy a house here in Seattle (I have no desire to live in a house, fuck that) and leave it totally unoccupied just to piss these people who are whining off.

Women trivialize men's dating struggles like "waaah you have a hard time getting your dick sucked?"

But it's not just about casual sex. The limited dating choices that men have significantly affect their living standards. Women with basic personal hygiene (healthy BMI, etc. etc) can choose to date men who make as much or much more money than them.

As a man you're basically limited to dating women who make the same or less money than you. If you're higher income, you're mostly limited to women who make much less than you because there are much fewer women with high income jobs. Both because for the most part women require (as a soft requirement) men to make at least as much or more than them, across the entire income spectrum. The only time men "get away" with having a much lower income is if they met in college before there was an income disparity or he's tall.

I make $X. The woman who makes as much money as me can date a man who makes $2x. I have to date down to a woman who makes $0.5X. The woman who worked as hard as me and makes as much as me lives a much better lifestyle at twice the household income, $3X income than me at $1.5X income.

Women's dating freedom and privilege means that a woman with basic personal hygiene can choose any configuration of man she wants. She can date a man with much higher income. She can get the man who has her exact passions and hobbies. She could date a man who wants to live life exactly how she wants to live it.

As a man, you have to compromise on everything. If you have a higher income and even just want a woman who makes as much as you, now you potentially have to deal with issues where she thinks lesser than you than the higher income men who she dated in the past or have to date a woman uglier than you are. You aren't going to find a girl into any of the obscure hobbies you have. If you want a girl who wants to live the exact way you want, you're going to have to compromise on how much income she is contributing or she'll be uglier than you are.

The broken dating markets are forcing men to desperately take whatever they can get for a long term relationship.

Women are privileged. Female privilege is having much more choice in a long term partner, the ability to choose whatever configuration you want in a long term partner.

Remote_Indication668 · 2023-08-01T01:20:57+00:00

Here's something people need to fucking stop doing: Treating autism like it's a bunch of morons who don't know how social skills work and that if we just taught them the skiills well, everything would be just fine!

It's compounded by the fact you have a lot of people who don't have autism claiming they do (probably got diagnosed as adults, or took some sort of bullshit online test) to excuse the fact that they're unempathetic assholes, or just plain stupid.

I'm going to use this, beautiful, amazing, glorious video as an example because it shows what autism actually is for people.

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1FBUissWwV4

WITHOUT EVEN STARTING THE VIDEO

You can tell he's autistic. The way he's standing is...weird. It's hard to describe because most things that autistic people do are hard to describe but it's """off"". Then you look at the guys facial expression. It is also off. Autism doesn't have facial features like down syndrome does...but it kind of does, subtle things that you can tell within like a second or two "Oh this person has autism".

Now we can start the video.

They start to speak. Their affect is flat and monotone, they are unable to change their tone to match the situation. The speech is incredibly stilted. There's an obvious lisp. Without even listening to what he's actually stating (he could be telling the funniest joke in the world! Hahah isn't that what you're suposed to do? be funny) you can tell it's super off putting just by the affect of his voice and the way he says words.

Then the movements start, the slashing hand motion that's meant to be intimidating, the leaning forward and trying (they lack the ability to) to look angry and aggressive. Every piece of body language he's displaying is just wrong, from top to bottom.

Is he saying really stupid shit that he might learn not to say if he was doing "Muh skills therapy"? Sure.

But it's not going to fix the fundamental body language, it's not going to change the facial expressions, it's not going to change the lack of affect in his voice, it's not going to change his clear lack of volume control (he's trying to speak louder but can't), the man is going to be instantly clockable as an autistic moron for his entire life.

And this is someone high functioning. He is in a normal classroom (For example I was never in a """normal""" classroom until college, I was always in the R*tards R Us room where the down syndrome kids drew pictures while I tried to take my post secondary calculus course without a teacher to hlep me), he's able to speak, he's fully verbal. He's incredibly high functioning.

Please stop pretending autism is being slightly awkward and that they just need to learn to read social cues and to say the right things.

That's what your average Warhammer 40k nerd whose a big loser and undersocialized needs to do.

Autism is different.

Q4All: Watching the evening news and saw a bit about lab grown chicken. Would you eat lab grown meats? If you were a vegan or vegetarian due to animal cruelty would you try lab grown meats?

I am not sure I could. But I already don’t eat a lot of things so lab grown meat is just one more food to add to the pile.

Why do western commies think sucking off every third world dictator while hating on their country is the road to victory? Commies outside the west are literally nationalists first communists second, that’s how they gained power. You don’t win over your people by telling them to get on their knees and prepare to get buttraped by China.

Here’s a potential back in my day story. I think it is still relevant though.

I think “get to know each other as friends” isn’t exactly like what it sounds. Think it is about treading a fine line, and making sure you don’t give off the I am looking for a friend vibe while getting to know each other in a friendly manner. The intention needs to be communicated without any expectations.

I think, irrespective of looks, people are energetically drawn to certain people. The woman with daddy issues will always fall for a certain man. The man with mommy issues will always fall for a certain woman. The romantic partners we seek out are often directly linked to our relationship with our former care-givers and their relationship between each other.

Women are beautiful because of their neotenic features... they look childish, baby faced. Growing old they lose those features, and turn less attractive.

Those child looking boy-band stars are also attractive due to their baby faces... they also grow older, losing those features and turning ugly.

Masculine men are attractive due to their facial bone structure and muscles. Facial bone structure doesn't change, we can be in shape for a looong time.

I can’t believe some women use “tingles” as their basis for attractiveness. If I only wanted to date women that gave me “tingles” I’d die a virgin cause I see like one or two girls a year that are that attractive to me.

I think women ages worse depending on whether you prefer “hot” girls or “cute” girls. The hotness factor of a woman will decrease far less with age than the cute factor, at least if she takes care of herself.
