I think there’s a disconnect here.

I also used to be a hardcore Christian and did the same thing. But the fact is, my own lived experience brought me out of it. No one could have sinply talked me out of my beliefs. It was literally all I knew. These were conclusions I had to come to on my own, because I was questioning them to begin with.

If I was not questioning the validity of it to start, I would not have looked for new amounts of information.

If people are not curious or open enough, they will stay in what they perceive to be their “truth”, with no amount of logic being able to sway them.

Basically, if they’re not searching for truth, presenting them with truth will not sway them.

“You cannot logic someone out of something they did not logic their way into.”

No.

This is weird, horny roleplay.

Women are not a hivemind. They are individual people, with their own thoughts, hopes, dreams, feelings, and aspirations.

Maybe you should start by seeing women on an equal level as human beings, first and foremost.

Incredible!!! Thank you so much!!

I am! Worry not.

To encourage the revolt of the increasingly dissatisfied American public.

And for those who say “that’s not going to happen”, you do not speak for the rest of us. There is absolutely unrest. The news cycle does not reflect reality.

Absolutely. He’s a puppet.

But I firmly believe that a bully that faces no consequences will continue to escalate.

Cut off the US. Support the people’s protesting. Trust me when I say that there is more opposition than ever. Even in my ultra-conservative town, the flags have disappeared. It’s getting… interesting.

All talk.

Been around plenty of disordered folks and he fits a very specific bill.

He’s chickenshit. Lotta threats but won’t follow through. His reputation is everything to him, but he will absolutely turn tail and run if he is challenged by a more powerful opponent. He will absolutely hold a grudge and try to get revenge in a “”“sneaky”“” way, but he’s still an absolute fucking idiot.

My kid and I watched it when it first released.

He barely remembers it, except Rainbow Road and “Mario characters”. And he loves Nintendo stuff.

It wasn’t “slop”, but it was not very memorable. The worst thing a film can be is forgettable.

My sister used to identify as bisexual. Now she identifies as pansexual. Why? She says she feels it more encompasses trans inclusion, as well.

Absolutely.

Yeah… don’t love the “women will be actively trying to ruin your life”–angle.

However, it’s a good idea to let him know that some potential partners will have bad/manipulative intentions, no matter the gender, and how to look out for that.

I made no mention of my kid’s orientation, so… make of that what you will. Lol

Non-stop?

His point isn’t wrong

Women will baby-trap the living fuck out of young men. He NEEDS to know this.

The above sentence is the one I’m taking a stand against. The rest was fine up until that.

It absolutely happens, no doubt! Never disagreed with that!

But putting out such a general statement like “women will baby-trap you!” is such a broad statement. Statements like that are often used to stir up hostility and is a common tactic used in spaces that are anti-women.

Me saying “men will assault you!” would not be acceptable and would get me attacked and downvoted to hell. It’s astounding to me that statements like this about women are supported.

I’m more shocked at the amount of upvotes the comment has.

Was with you until this line. C’mon now.
