Pointlessly gendered

Power over another person, the prerequisite for most sexual violence, doesn't have to come from superior physical strength. It could come from an age difference, a professor-student or boss-employee dynamic, or some form of blackmail, for example. And the body can experience physical arousal in response to the right stimuli even when you don't want to have sex. You can also do acts of sexual violence that do not require an erect penis.

Nah, it's extra hard when your partner looks all cosy cuddly adorable eepy sleepy under their lil blankie und you just want to cuddle up

Because languages aren't constructed, they 'evolved' naturally from humans communicating with one another for many generations. As such, they aren't intended to be as simple as possible. They aren't intended in the first place. They've grown over time with no regard for whether the rules makes sense because nobody designed those rules, they just happened.

Im someone who likes to shoot a gun at targets at the range. I find it SO creepy and unnerving when it becomes clear that someone would like to shoot at a person. They don't usually outright say it, but some make it clear in other ways.

Afaik they intentionally look at and around it briefly, simply because no other doctor (I'm some cases, nobody at all) ever looks there and you could have a malignant mole or something. At least the two I've been to said it's common practice.

No, tell them how it is. The economy IS booming. That fact just doesn't have anything to do with the average Joe. Teach them 'the economy' isn't on their side.

Sorry to be that guy, but be careful with these. Everything will seem darker, so you won't shy away from the sun as much, but you still get UV in your eyes, which can damage them. They look really cool though!

Tangential, but I'm working with some code that started out in the punch card era (I'm doing particle physics, it's in fortran)

The way this is phrased makes it sound like there's a certain threshold where this starts happening. That's not right. Even a grain of dust wouldn't orbit the sun, they still orbit their common barycenter. A less misleading way of phrasing would be that Jupiter is massive enough that the barycenter of it and the sun actually lies outside the sun, which is still a cool fun fact.

Pronouncing things as they would be in the language they're actually in is sometimes a faux pas in American culture, I've learned

'Haha you guys only have the choice between conservative and far-right'

To be fair, it's best to not participate in the lottery.

I'm white so she wouldn't base my name on ethnicity, she'd probably go with Tr*nny Girlman

In case Im not the only one who's heard of this for the first time:

“In 2017, the Rohingya were killed, tortured, raped, and displaced in the thousands as part of the Myanmar security forces’ campaign of ethnic cleansing. In the months and years leading up to the atrocities, Facebook’s algorithms were intensifying a storm of hatred against the Rohingya which contributed to real-world violence,” said Agnès Callamard, Amnesty International’s Secretary General.

It can also happen after you consent to SOME intimate acts, but not others, and the other person can take you by surprise. (That one has happened to me, im not male though)

This has me wondering, are young people actually getting LESS pc literate? I'm sure there's studies about that? It's never occurred to me that growing up with computers but without smartphones was peak conditions for becoming tech literate.

I kept reading and hearing this and since it doesn't happen to me I thought something was wrong with me. So I'd like to add that according to my gyn it's also perfectly normal to not have this happen!

Mostly things that fall under the category of women not being able to be a threat/dangerous. Especially white women, which im usually read as.

This includes everything from talking to children in public to actual minor crimes like shoplifting.

ETA: this is in fact a prime example of how sexism is mean to everyone. Women are not dangerous because they're weak, men are dangerous because they're strong. Neither is generally true.

Fuck the vaccines cause autism argument. Like even if it were true. I'm autistic. You're telling me you'd rather your child die than be like me? Speaks volumes to how much hate you have both for people like me and your own child.
