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

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.

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?

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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 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.

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.
