they don’t even have “feminism”
I mean, they do have feminism. The trick to understanding feminism is to recognize how it benefits both genders when the walls of segregation and elitism come down.
Once you’re able to treat each other as peers, rather than income streams or commodities, you develop the kind of common sense they enjoy.

Really depends on your circumstances. There’s nothing radical about changing careers or finding a nicer place to live when you’ve hit a glass ceiling. Humans have been doing that for tens of thousands of years. It’s why we’re not all living in a cluster of cities between Iran and Ethiopia.

I actually have no idea what my IQ is.
I mean, safe bet that it’s within 10 points of 100. Guessing 96 is as valid as any other number in that range.

It’s funny, because you literally never see people mention that they’re within a standard deviation of the average, even though that’s supposed to be 70% of the people who take the test.

The first time you get tricked by this can be written off as experimentation. It’s the folks that are suckered in over and over again, and take some kind of personal pride in receiving a little “You’re Such A Smart Little Guy” certificate from a random website that have you looking sideways.

The apps reflect the underlying culture and social order. They weren’t the only reason. Go spend a week in the south of France after spending half your life in Galveston and you’ll understand.

The Algorithm used to match people isn’t designed to encourage healthy and normal conversations. It’s designed to encourage people to spend more time on the apps (and, eventually, more money).

Had a couple of friends who went on vacation to Europe - Spain and France, specifically - and had totally different experiences on the dating apps. Men were open and friendly, knew how to hold up a conversation (in non-native languages!), showed politeness, responded quickly, made first contact easy and low-anxiety, looked good, smelled nice, knew how to dance, charmed the panties right off them both, and then kept in contact afterwards. Like, even after they flew back home, these guys were still saying “Hey, what’s up, here’s something cool happening in my neighborhood can’t wait to see you again”.
Just a radically different experience than the American dating scene. One friend straight up swore off American men entirely. She’s booking a flight back to France for a three month go - working remote, learning the language, the whole thing - because of how blown away by the healthier and happier social conditions over there.

Having said that, I never mentioned jailing anyone, just said it should be criminalized.
What do you think the consequences of criminalization happen to be?
Since this how our law system operates, it is very fine by me to release all the people who were arrested for drug offences and shoplifting, and replace them with all the baby-dicks-chopping-sick-fucks.
If it was an either-or game, I could almost sympathize with the sentiment. But this isn’t either-or. You’re packing them all in cheek-to-jowl. The prison population of England & Wales quadrupled in size between 1900 and 2018, with around half of this increase taking place since 1990. And it posed to keep growing with an additional 95,700 to 105,200 by March 2029.
There is no end to it. There is no swapping out the less-bad for the more-worse. You’re just finding a new excuse to add more people to the incarceration pile.

Why would Rabbis be immune from the law again
You’ve drifted from “everyone will just follow the law” to “I can’t wait to throw a bunch of rabbis in jail”
No this wouldn’t violate freedom of religion
Banning a sacrament?

Considering the minor’s teeth are still growing (as well as the minor around them), i’d say it’s a bit stupid to mess with them
This is why libertarians exist. Just people speaking so far out their ass about something they know nothing about, then demanding an armed goon squad make these delusions an executable offense.
Literally go talk to a dentist. Or any medical professional, for that matter. And explain your profound insights, while waving a badge and a gun at them.

Surgical Orthodontics has been around for a while.
But it’s cosmetic so we need to outlaw this, too? Because reshaping the jaw of a minor should be a crime?

The history of the protest-turned-riot-turned-massacre is genuinely incredible. I wish more Americans learned enough about Chinese history to understand the significance of the event. It wasn’t just one guy in front of a line of tanks. And the movement didn’t end in Tienamen, either.
Dengism into the 21st century was defined by that movement and the backlash and it’s reverberations. Modern Chinese domestic policy exists as a combination carrot and stick to discourage this kind of insurrection from happening again.
Would that the US people had the kind of courage and social cohesion necessary for a Tienamen in the modern day.

Rabbis will continue to perform the surgery in secret, in the same way piercings and abortions and transgender surgery continues in the face of criminalization.
- Comment on Circumcision classed as possible child abuse in draft CPS document 1 week ago:
That’s the whole problem. You won’t have doctors doing it. You’ll have rabbis doing it.
