While I agree with you, I don’t think it’s fair to characterize all of society as misandrist based on that. There’s a significant number of things that you’re ignoring or are not privy to, where women are harmed by men. The patriarchy isn’t just this fantasy that feminists made up, it’s a real thing, and while not as powerful as it used to be it still harms women substantially.
I think it’s fairer to say that some parts of our culture are misandrist, some misogynist. And on the whole, women have it worse - but men also have it pretty bad.

I’m in my 30s and probably at over 100 rejections like, total in my life. I’ve never been looking for long term relationships so I do try with a larger number of women than most men. But like…hundreds of rejections between success? That’s absurd. You’d run out of women.

Remember when that dude blew up his cybertruck in front of Trump tower and everyone was like “oh it probably just did that” rofl

Duuuude why is the air force full of weebs
One of my coworkers was a female former air force mechanic and even SHE was a fuckin weeb

Right, and I assume that’s the vast majority of whatever women these guys are satisfying their fetishes with (aside from women paid for it).
But it’s still odd the fetish itself is so overwhelmingly male.
- Comment on Do you really have to let everyone know 1 day ago:
Has anyone ever met a woman who was really into having her toes sucked? It’s always dudes with this fetish

- Comment on Do you use your blinker in a car? 2 days ago:
My old house was one of a row of housing with assigned parking spaces in front, perpendicular to the road. Like in front of a store.
I was going to turn into my parking space. This behemoth of a truck was in front of me, going slow as molasses. I mean like 2 miles an hour. I could have stopped my car and walked home faster, but I was in the middle of the road.
The truck in front of me veered left, towards the parking spots on the opposite side of the road. I said “fucking FINALLY” and darted past them on the right.
Turns out they had finally found the spot they were looking for and had just swung wide to turn into the spot. On the right, not the left. They turned straight into me as I tried to drive past.
Ever since then I make sure to use my blinker even if I’m just turning into my driveway.

In CA the inland is full of dumb rednecks and the coast is full of smart immigrants.
CA probably has the highest literacy rate of any state…in Hindi, or Mandarin lol

Agreed, and also a non sequitur?
- Comment on Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message? 4 days ago:
Sure, depending on the issue. But the main issue is that some people actually DO need those, and for those people, it’s absolutely a reading comprehension thing (which could have roots in being overworked, not caring, low attention span, poor schooling, any number of things, but the end result is poor reading comprehension).

Who said anything about not proofreading? My emails are perfectly legible and written in proper English. You’re equating “lack of dumbed-down easy to digest bullet points” with “sloppy, error-filled writing”. They’re two extremely different things.
- Comment on Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message? 4 days ago:
No, just very stubborn
- Comment on Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message? 4 days ago:
You weren’t speaking to me, just making a general statement. Under those circumstances it’s perfectly reasonable to address only part of someone else’s statement.
- Comment on Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message? 4 days ago:
Speak for yourself. We’ve had YEARS of delay because someone answered “no” to a 2 part question when they completely ignored the first part.

In a workplace environment, I shouldn’t have to format emails as if they’re to be read by a 12 year old.

The existence of exceptions does not invalidate a general rule.

they can often get it right
They fail to outperform a broad market index like 85% of the time, and they charge fees for it lol

That’s called “timing the market” and it’s impossible without insider knowledge.

Historically, what, 4 years or so?
If you pulled all your money out in 2009 you were fucked. But by 2013 things were fine again.

Before the reddit exodus, that was probably true. Now it is very obviously full of people with edgy takes and no life experience.
- Comment on Why Do Sites Keep Shoving Features We Don’t Want Down Our Throats? 1 week ago:
You give them too much credit. They’re not even necessarily there for the company’s profit.
Extra unnecessary features are often added and shoved at you purely because some executive needed a project to spruce up their resume, and for literally no other reason.

Give it time.
