I remember as a kid in my area this game was called Toilets.

If you got caught you were a toilet and had to stand with your arm out until someone pushed on it and said 'flush.'

I miss the toilet game haha

Agreed. Men are human beings. She may be smaller and less of a physical threat but she's also a grown ass adult who should have some basic decency.

I'd also like to post more but worry that I'm being narcissistic...Not everyone likes my weirdly-tuned ukulele music.

Hehe true, well here's today's recording

Someone said I would be a good wife...I felt powerless and degraded. How did I manage to come off as so brainless and lacking in self respect that I'd have nothing better to do than be someone's wife?

I get that it's a bit inappropriate to be flippant and make jokes but if I worried about this every time I saw a headline about it I'd die from my adrenal glands exploding and melting a hole through the back of my computer chair.

What the hell? Was someone drunk when they drew up that policy?

He was never even truly homeless. He had a lot of free help from others.

I'm a woman. Take your fucking tantrum elsewhere. Maybe read my OP in which I talk about rape threats from a drunken 200 pound man.

I don't wanna be reincarnated. Deep black annihilation plz

I don't blame them. I can't imagine voluntarily getting brain surgery unless it was life or death.

Imma be fair here and point out that female on male rape is massively under-reported and under-documented because of a wording issue. Rape in many countries is defined only as penetration of the victim. A woman forcing a man to penetrate her therefore doesn't count no matter how obviously it was done against his will.

No a very traditional and backwards woman made a comment about how I'd be a good wife for her son who I don't even know.

I don't know how I managed to come across as that much of a worthless cored-out shell.

What in the name of diarrhea is this? Someone please just explain like I'm a complete idiot

I think it's simply more a placeholder term for something people haven't found out enough about yet.

Samesies. Overly large groups tend to get a bit impersonal. Not always, but it's a tendency I notice.

I ought to care but I've lost that ability. Annihilation is not scary. I won't be alive or awake to experience it.

Good point, I started a ukulele community a few hours ago but I've no real idea how to publicize it or add more people.

I understand that but the whole reason the joke is funny is that it plays on the idea that women are annoying burdens.

I just find it odd that on one hand we hear so much about male loneliness and how we'll be unfulfilled to the point of psychological annihilation if we don't have a man and screaming kids to clean up after...but on the other hand we're huge annoying burdens.

I didn't derail anything. I gave a varied set of thoughts that had been bothering me. I don't want to be around a bear either. There are more things you can do to repel it but I don't want to be around a 1200 pound animal that doesn't bother to kill its prey before eating. And the fact that you just breezed past my story about a 200 pound drunk man sending me fucking rape threats and only backed off after I sent him an extremely graphic rant full of death threats right back is a bit much. You act like I have no idea what it's like being a woman.
