2023.06.08 14:57 Salt-Candy-6620 My low self confidence due to my body makes me [24F] avoid relationships [22M] indefinitely. How do I conquer this?
Reading online and on Reddit I found out that men commonly fetishize and sexualise transgender women and women who have penises, but women and gay men don't commonly fetishize nor sexualise transgender men and men who have vaginas
I also found out that oral is believed to be much more commonly performed on men than on women. And that men not giving oral to women has nothing to do with male selfishness, since gay men are also male and are not believed to have issues giving oral to other men
I also found out that vaginas are seen as gross, taboo and have stigma. Also periods. And that gay men are more openly disgusted by and insulting towards vaginas than lesbians are towards penises, they are also less open to transgender men than lesbians are open to transgender women
And that vaginas are not appreciated as much as large penises, boobs and butts are
Also that men are more attracted to a performance or costume of femininity than they are to actual women. So feminized men are less of a turn off than women with unshaven bodies, fat women, non feminine women, etc
Also that f emdom is mostly about penis imitation in the form of straps ons and pegging
And that sex without a penis (lesbian) is not taken seriously but sex without a vagina (gay) is
I asked my parents, sister and psychologist about these things and they said that the vast majority of men have no interest in transgender women pre op nor post op nor women who have penises and penises in general. They also said oral is 50/50 between men and women. And that vaginas are not seen as gross, taboo nor do they have stigma and neither do periods. And that vaginas are appreciated as much as the other parts. Also that men are not more attracted to femininity and that they would rather any type of woman than a man. Plus that female domination is an attitude and that instead other sexual stuff with vaginas is mostly used to convey this, like face sitting. And that sex is not seen to be all about the penis
Why is the online world showing differently? And how do the sex positive f eminists who say that vaginas are hated, still want sex with men? The things I read put me off men for life, unfortunately. It's ingrained in my mind that men are not fussed about that part. For me the bare minimum I expect of them is that they appreciate vaginas. So why do other women let it slide? I can't associate with people and I will become reclusive/avoid people if what I read online is true. I won't accept being surrounded by a society where most believe and accept it.

2023.06.08 14:56 Midless-Research Watch Latest HD Hindi Hollywood And Bollywood Movies
Do you find yourself renting a lot of movies? Whenever the new released movies hit the theaters, many people find themselves sitting in front of the big screen with a tub of popcorn in their lap and a boat load of money gone from their wallet. The prices we pay to watch a new release blockbuster has gotten out of hand (or is that out of wallet). The Hollywood hokidewa film industry is an enormous business and the movie producers are more than willing to gamble millions of dollars making movies because they know that movie lovers like ourselves are willing to cough up their hard earned money to go the movie theater and watch their film. If we don't fork over our cash at the movie theater the movie moguls have a back-up plan. Can you say DVD?
Video palaces like Blockbuster are only too happy to help us spend the money that we tried saving by not going to the movie theater. Can't get to your local video store to rent or buy new released DVD's? No problem, the movie industry has that covered too. nias toto Blockbuster and Netflix will mail them right to your mailbox. It used to be cheap to enjoy a good movie, but no more. Well, I for one have had it.

2023.06.08 14:56 Pitiful-Arugula-8108 Mangers and tip pooling? (WI)
Tip pooling question
Is it legal for a salaried manager to take part in a tip pool in WI? We have two managers on staff that are salaried that take part in the tip pool and get tipped out each night. One is the house manager and the other does the scheduling and book keeping/we get our tips at end of shift from them (not sure official title).
This doesn’t sit right with me. The justification is that they help out with tipped duties for part of their shifts. However, it’s not the entire shift and I know for a fact that they both are salaried while the rest of us are paid part time hourly.
I’ve heard from another employee that the people in question say it’s legal due to them helping out, but everything I’m reading online doesn’t add up with that logic.
Is this a common occurrence? This is at a venue.

2023.06.08 14:55 extranaiveoliveoil Are cartridges really that different?
The reason I ask is this: when I read online reviews of cartridges there seems to be a world of difference between them. Analytical, musical, warm, harsh, bright.
I read things like: the Ortofon 2M red is unlistenable, but the 2M blue is fantastic. Both are the same cartridge with different elliptical styli, red is bonded, blue is nude.
You read that the AT-95e or AT VM95e are budget, entry level, not bad though, and then you read that the coils/body is used in high end cartridges.
So what is going on? Snake oil, again?

2023.06.08 14:55 xfallenangelx95 27/F Looking for someone in exactly the same situation as mine - Someone friendless,talkative and kind! Kindness is highly appreciated by me! I'm interested only in daily conversations and long term friendships! Let everyone on Reddit be happy! Let them find their happiness :) Never give up!
Only Europe Please - short note - If you're not into reading or receiving long messages,don't read any further + Please If you don't want to read everything because of my post being too long for you & instead of reading It all - ..skip some parts - find another person to talk to.Let's respect each other and our free time. All people criticizing/making fun of me & other people - will permanently be blocked.Pretty much as people questioning my post and giving me unsolicited advice.I'm not here for any conflicts and I know I can't please everyone - I know I never will.. However It's me who should feel comfortable in my new potential friendship & obviously someone interested in being my friend - not the whole world which is why I don't need any advice from people who don't even want to be a part of my life. The amount of rude people on Reddit always criticizing others and making fun of them is unbelievably high but let me tell you something - NEVER let anyone make choices for you and criticize you only because you're different! Always fight for your dreams and never let anyone make you think you're worthless! It's your life and you're the one deciding what's best for you - If you want to judge me despite not even wanting to talk to me or give me avice better block me
Hello guys! 🙂 (read everything before you decide to send me a message) Please send me a message ONLY If you're in the same situation and If your expectations are the same as mine.I want to find like minded people from Europe (Why Europe? Read my post to find out) I'm looking for something permanent (remember - you can feel lonely even If you're surrounded by others - If there's no emotional bond) I'm fed up of meeting people who never make any time for me & only text me once or twice a week to ask me "what are you up to?" Out of boredom.I don't want to meet people asking others a million of questions like "what's your favorite movie?" Just to give you one word answer and ask you another question "and music? Your favorite song?" I'm looking for something "deeper" & different🙂What kind of friend would I like to find? Someone to talk to on a daily basis - Someone who needs It & wants It just as much as me
What are my expectations? I would like to meet someone in a similar situation – why? Because I honestly feel like only a person with the same expectations and a similar outlook on life would get along with me & because I feel more comfortable talking to people like me..Friendless people who need a strong bond - people without friends and without partners..Don't get me wrong…Most people deserve to be happy and It's good to have friends but people who have friends or families in real life are usually more focused on them ( which is completely understandable) & have less time for others + I simply don't want to be replaced by anyone..I kind of envy people who can call others , true friends given I don't have an emotional bond with any of my acquaintances. Whenever I hear that others have friends I simply get sad because (believe it or not) If I had to choose between 20 people to talk to (Acquaintances) and one special person - I'd choose that one special person without any hesitation .
I also want to talk to others on a daily basis mainly because..I want to see someone’s effort & be someone's first choice - not another person to have random conversations with..Why I'd rather talk to people from my continent? Well..Mainly because I would like to see someone I'd get along with - In the far future - face to face :) + I don't want to wait any longer than 6 hours to receive a message - Especially given most people are always available on social media sites & keep their phones in a pocket.Once you receive & open my message - get back to me (If you're as serious as I am & really need a true friend) waiting 6 hours to receive a message is more than enough
I'm by no means criticising people who don't want to talk to others often / People who really are super busy & People who want to find someone to have non important conversations with - I'm aware that not everyone has the same expectations which is why everything you're reading now - is here for a reason.All I'm suggesting is - I don't want anything temporary and I don't want to be the one always giving more than receiving.Listen people - I used to ignore being..ignored by others..always being just an option to talk to during tough times or moments of boredom.I was too young to realize that I was never important enough for most people that were a part of my life I don't know who needs to hear this but..No one is too busy to make time for you! People make excuses to avoid others because they prioritize everything and (maybe) everyone..over them. It's true that most people really are busy - but It takes only a few seconds to start a conversation (If you're into short messages) and a few minutes (1-10/15) to type a long message Don't let anyone lie to you.
Truth is that most people either don't like you enough to make time for you or just simply - feel no need to talk to others often but are they too busy? No..You don't need to send me a message just to ask me and tell me "Do you really want to talk daily? I like long messages but I can't promise to contact you often" If you really are unsure please don't send me a message.I don't need more acquaintances aka people to talk to - occasionallyI'm not trying to sound rude - I just don't want to meet new people and get emotionally attached - only to end up being left alone after weeks or months of daily conversations.I'm sick of that never ending story and always meeting people who ghost me without a single word (even if everything seems to be ok) or people who "change priorities" over time & become like strangers…I don't want to go through this ever again.Let me tell you one thing – A true friend would never just give up on you for no reason :)It’s always possible to find someone to have a random conversation with – someone willing to send you one message once or twice a week..but..It’s almost impossible to find people willing to make time for you.
I’m not asking a busy person to make time for me by changing some plans! Absolutely not! I’m here to find someone who wants to talk daily (throughout the day or maybe even night) of one’s own will.Someone looking for the same kind of connection.Strong friendships are based on mutual support. One of the best things you can do for a friend in need, is just to be there for them when they want to talk.I often see posts from people who always say how friendless they are because they don't feel loved or appreciated by their "friends" remember! A true friend - someone who truly likes you or someone who wants to get to know you - will always find time for you. 🙂
I'm not really interested in small talk/short messages - I love long and meaningful conversations. It's so easy to find someone who loves abbreviations and questions like "How are you?" How was your day? Or what are you interested in? But so hard/almost impossible to find a person who knows how to keep a conversation going & show others some effort.Building and maintaining friendships takes time and effort.Never allow pursuits or possessions to become bigger priorities than your relations with other people.Close friendships are so important to us because they are so difficult to form + Having friends can help you feel as if you belong to something that brings purpose and connection to your life
• I do NOT respond to any „Hey,hmu” or „u want to talk” type of messages (super short messages or messages full of abbreviations – I literally can’t stand abbreviations and acronyms in text messages) ALL messages full of abbreviations will immediately be ignored.I also don't like it when people ignore everything I say in private messages just to focus on some question or? Start talking only about themselves.. I love conversations with people refering to every part of my messages - not just some question.
• No dirty messages PLEASE.I'm not looking for anyone to flirt with and I'm not looking for a partner either. No NSWF profiles..I always check people's profiles (Even comment history) - To avoid guys,trying to get inappropriate photos from adult women or? flirt with them & If your comment history is full of rude comments - you and I wouldn't get along! I can't stand people who judge other people and use vulgar words to describe them or? Make fun of them.Respect is very important
• If both (you and I) are from the same country (I live in a non-English speaking country ) - I want to communicate with you in our first language! No - Not because I don't understand English because as you see - I do. Why then? English is simply overrated and people don't appreciate other languages as much as they should. So.. If we're from the same country and you want to talk only in English (which is quite common on reddit) - Talk to someone else. I just simply don't want to talk to a person from the same country - in a foreign language as It's just something I don't understand even If all you want is to practice your english
• Please only adult people 18-36 age range (I'm 27)
• I don’t respond to messages I don’t find interesting even If they're long - If after receiving and reading your message I don't feel comfortable or think "I wouldn't get along with him/her" I simply do not respond (what I’m suggesting is that I don’t always respond to someone’s first or second message because..sometimes you just know If you’d get along with someone or not- I’d never ignore anyone after days or weeks of daily conversations though) just because I don’t want to do anything forcefully & because I don’t want to lead anyone on. I read all messages but I definitely don't respond to all of them! I want to make it clear because I don't want to be accused of not responding and not reading people's messages! - Some people don't message me back as well and even though It is a bit disappointing I'm ok with that! - as long as there's no emotional bond - I think it's ok to not respond to someone's first or second message If people think they wouldn't get along! I can't stand being ignored after days or weeks of daily conversation and seeing people changing priorities but that's something different - something I don't want to go through ever again for real If I'm really interested in someone's message - I respond within a matter of minutes - max 6 hours (If I'm in bed - just sleeping) you won't even hear from me "I'm too busy" because I know myself and If I really was too busy to make time for others - I wouldn't be here. I either want to talk to someone..or not.I don't want to pretend someone I'm not and always try to find some cheap excuses to avoid others. (unlike some people)
• Don’t ask me “Can you tell me something about yourself?” If you really want to get to know me - you can ask me questions :) I'm an open book.
• It would be better If you guys were into emojis - just like me - just to describe your emotions through text. Two emojis - 🙂 and 🙁 are completely enough I just don't like emotionless messages.I also don't like it when people say "yeah" or yea"as it sounds dismissively.
• I want to talk on reddit first (just to make sure If I'd get along with you ) before moving to Discord or some other app
• Time response matters to me a lot! It matters to me whether I get a message back after one hour,three hours,6 hours or..12 hours and even..after a couple of days..And If you're another person just looking for one day conversation and then? "Disappear" for some amount of time longer than one day to come back and apologize me for being busy - don't even leave me a message.I just want to be honest with you from the start.I'm interested only in daily conversations
Why can’t you see any of my interests listed down below? Because what really matters to me is..who you are (If you’re honest,talkative,understanding,caring and trustworthy – for example) just simply – It matters to me what you’re like! not what you like.Don’t get me wrong – you can tell me what your hobbies are but in my personal opinion,common interests are important mainly when you want to find a gaming buddy (for example) or If you want to meet someone to hang out with in real life and..go bowling for example.What most people seem to care about are other people's interests – I don’t. I get along with other people despite having completely different hobbies but I absolutely don’t get along with people way different than me (different expectations and outlook on life– way different sense of humor or personality traits – It’s just an example) It doesn't make ANY DIFFERENCE to me If you're a gamer or? Someone interested in photography! It doesn't make any difference - > as long as you're talkative and kind and If you also want to find someone willing to stay in your life..for good - But If you're into small talk and all you want is to...type and receive super short messages or If you're here only because you're bored and don't know what to do + If you're a very sarcastic person - I'm definitely not for you!I don't get along with overly sarcastic people turning everything into a joke. Friendships should be natural – not forced.
Both people wanting to be friends should feel comfortable and have something in common. No - not necessarily a similar taste in music or movies but something else..Most friendships don't fizzle out because of people not having the same hobbies but..because they just simply have different expectations when It comes to something important.I'm not here out of boredom and trust me - I'm not here to meet as many people as possible.I choose quality over quantity.I higly value myself and my time & Sometimes one person but a person who makes you feel comfortable and understood - is more than enough :) We ALL can choose what kind of people we’d like to talk to and maybe even become really good friends with and I? I don’t want anyone to be disappointed.We all have some expectations after all.I know that people don't have to talk everyday to be friends but I'm interested only in daily conversations with someone also interested in talking dailyIf you really need someone to talk to due to loneliness and If you have time to talk to me daily (throughout the day and maybe even night)I always make time for others.I'm literally always available.I could even stay up all night long only to talk to someone. I’m ready to commit but only If there’s some chemistry between me and someone else.I don’t do anything forcefully.
If you want to talk to me tell me your story - tell me why you're here, what kind of friend would you like to meet :) Et cetera.Such messages are way more interesting to me than...someone's long list of hobbies. I know! It's unusual on reddit but I don't make friends based on hobbies..I want to meet someone with the same mindset as mine to finally feel understood and get close to someone new.You can share your problems with me - I absolutely don't mind "complaining" as I've been through a lot in my life.What do people usually tell you when you tell them that's something's wrong? "Don't complain" or "Life's not over yet - one day you'll be happy" or "There are worse situations than yours" and..obviously "Find a therapist" Life's not a fairytale and sometimes things don't go as planned.Emotions shouldn't be bottled up.I'm sick of people always telling others "everything's gonna be ok" move on " & more..Trust me people - not everyone wants to hear "Just believe in yourself and everything's gonna be ok" Some people take it as reassurance. But others see it as false hope. Imagine being told that things will be okay, only for them to get worse..Do you guys know why telling someone "everything's gonna be ok" Is wrong? Because you can't see the future.
You can't guarantee others that one day they'll finally be happy + when It comes to social interactions - We're only responsible for ourselves - not for others & as you guys know people let us down quite often (sometimes even when there's no reason) so instead of telling people how they should move on,forget everything and be happy or asking them to find a therapist - be there for them! Always be willing to listen to them If you really like them or want to get to know them & don't suggest everyone in a tough situation to find a therapist because a therapist won't ever replace a true friend + It's quite normal to be disappointed If people always do something to hurt you.Sharing your hardships with other people in a very similar situation or exactly the same one - is VERY helpful If the other person understands you & wants to start all over by just letting it all out & feeling emotional support instead of always hearing some "positive quotes" or someone saying "Stop complaining let's talk about something else"Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on. I appreciate sensitive people who always try to understand others.Empathy is everything
Our world needs more peace 🤗 I've seen a lot of rude comments on reddit.If you don't agree with me - OK but please don't criticize me + Not everyone is here to ask for advice.Listen people - I know how different my post is & I know It won't be easy for me to find what or rather who - I'm looking for BUT I always want to be myself instead of pretending someone I'm not and lying to others.I know It would be easier if (like others) I had less expectations but I I know what I want and honestly? If my post was different..I wouldn't be me.Even If I won't meet a person I'd get along with - that's ok! but don't give me any unsolicited advice because I wouldn't change for someone who doesn't even know me pretty much as I wouldn't want to change anyone else.I'm not trying to "fit in" and be like everyone else - just to get more attention.Accept me for who I am or let go - is my motto.I'm not here to argue with anyone and to make fun of others.
Please - If you're a completely different person than the described type of person I'm looking for (If you love abrreviations,If you don't need an emotional connection,If you're sarcastic and quiet) or If you simply disagree with my post - don't force yourself to send me a message.I want my new potential friendship,to be natural which is why I want you to contact me If your needs are the same - I don't want you to try to change yourself only to please me - Pretending to be someone you're not - is the worst.I know It's possible to find what I'm looking for as I had conversations with people looking for exactly the same thing and being nice to me - I want to believe in my luck again as I had it a few times on reddit - I've recently lost someone I thought could be a friend of mine (such a perfect match) and I'm sad but I want to finally be happy again & find someone always wanting to talk - sending me random pictures throughout the day - food pictures or pictures of some animals and what is the most important to me? To find people who value online friendships as much as they would value real life ones as there's another human being on the other side
No comments please.Only Private messages and chat requests.I don't really like public conversations and I also do not respond to comments so If you want to send me a message just do it without saying "You can DM me" + I'm online almost all the time and yes - I am very selective but If I had to choose between having another (new) acquaintance and being in the same situation as I currently am - I'd always choose second option.I don't need more people to talk to every now and then and any chit chat so please think twice before you decide to send me a message

Hello guys! 🙂 (read everything before you decide to send me a message) Please send me a message ONLY If you're in the same situation and If your expectations are the same as mine.I want to find like minded people from Europe (Why Europe? Read my post to find out) I'm looking for something permanent (remember - you can feel lonely even If you're surrounded by others - If there's no emotional bond) I'm fed up of meeting people who never make any time for me & only text me once or twice a week to ask me "what are you up to?" Out of boredom.I don't want to meet people asking others a million of questions like "what's your favorite movie?" Just to give you one word answer and ask you another question "and music? Your favorite song?" I'm looking for something "deeper" & different🙂What kind of friend would I like to find? Someone to talk to on a daily basis - Someone who needs It & wants It just as much as me
What are my expectations? I would like to meet someone in a similar situation – why? Because I honestly feel like only a person with the same expectations and a similar outlook on life would get along with me & because I feel more comfortable talking to people like me..Friendless people who need a strong bond - people without friends and without partners..Don't get me wrong…Most people deserve to be happy and It's good to have friends but people who have friends or families in real life are usually more focused on them ( which is completely understandable) & have less time for others + I simply don't want to be replaced by anyone..I kind of envy people who can call others , true friends given I don't have an emotional bond with any of my acquaintances. Whenever I hear that others have friends I simply get sad because (believe it or not) If I had to choose between 20 people to talk to (Acquaintances) and one special person - I'd choose that one special person without any hesitation .
I also want to talk to others on a daily basis mainly because..I want to see someone’s effort & be someone's first choice - not another person to have random conversations with..Why I'd rather talk to people from my continent? Well..Mainly because I would like to see someone I'd get along with - In the far future - face to face :) + I don't want to wait any longer than 6 hours to receive a message - Especially given most people are always available on social media sites & keep their phones in a pocket.Once you receive & open my message - get back to me (If you're as serious as I am & really need a true friend) waiting 6 hours to receive a message is more than enough
I'm by no means criticising people who don't want to talk to others often / People who really are super busy & People who want to find someone to have non important conversations with - I'm aware that not everyone has the same expectations which is why everything you're reading now - is here for a reason.All I'm suggesting is - I don't want anything temporary and I don't want to be the one always giving more than receiving.Listen people - I used to ignore being..ignored by others..always being just an option to talk to during tough times or moments of boredom.I was too young to realize that I was never important enough for most people that were a part of my life I don't know who needs to hear this but..No one is too busy to make time for you! People make excuses to avoid others because they prioritize everything and (maybe) everyone..over them. It's true that most people really are busy - but It takes only a few seconds to start a conversation (If you're into short messages) and a few minutes (1-10/15) to type a long message Don't let anyone lie to you.
Truth is that most people either don't like you enough to make time for you or just simply - feel no need to talk to others often but are they too busy? No..You don't need to send me a message just to ask me and tell me "Do you really want to talk daily? I like long messages but I can't promise to contact you often" If you really are unsure please don't send me a message.I don't need more acquaintances aka people to talk to - occasionallyI'm not trying to sound rude - I just don't want to meet new people and get emotionally attached - only to end up being left alone after weeks or months of daily conversations.I'm sick of that never ending story and always meeting people who ghost me without a single word (even if everything seems to be ok) or people who "change priorities" over time & become like strangers…I don't want to go through this ever again.Let me tell you one thing – A true friend would never just give up on you for no reason :)It’s always possible to find someone to have a random conversation with – someone willing to send you one message once or twice a week..but..It’s almost impossible to find people willing to make time for you.
I’m not asking a busy person to make time for me by changing some plans! Absolutely not! I’m here to find someone who wants to talk daily (throughout the day or maybe even night) of one’s own will.Someone looking for the same kind of connection.Strong friendships are based on mutual support. One of the best things you can do for a friend in need, is just to be there for them when they want to talk.I often see posts from people who always say how friendless they are because they don't feel loved or appreciated by their "friends" remember! A true friend - someone who truly likes you or someone who wants to get to know you - will always find time for you. 🙂

2023.06.08 14:55 Salt-Candy-6620 My low self confidence due to my body makes me [24F] avoid relationships [22M] indefinitely. How do I conquer this?
Reading online and on Reddit I found out that men commonly fetishize and sexualise transgender women and women who have penises, but women and gay men don't commonly fetishize nor sexualise transgender men and men who have vaginas
I also found out that oral is believed to be much more commonly performed on men than on women. And that men not giving oral to women has nothing to do with male selfishness, since gay men are also male and are not believed to have issues giving oral to other men
I also found out that vaginas are seen as gross, taboo and have stigma. Also periods. And that gay men are more openly disgusted by and insulting towards vaginas than lesbians are towards penises, they are also less open to transgender men than lesbians are open to transgender women
And that vaginas are not appreciated as much as large penises, boobs and butts are
Also that men are more attracted to a performance or costume of femininity than they are to actual women. So feminized men are less of a turn off than women with unshaven bodies, fat women, non feminine women, etc
Also that f emdom is mostly about penis imitation in the form of straps ons and pegging
And that sex without a penis (lesbian) is not taken seriously but sex without a vagina (gay) is
I asked my parents, sister and psychologist about these things and they said that the vast majority of men have no interest in transgender women pre op nor post op nor women who have penises and penises in general. They also said oral is 50/50 between men and women. And that vaginas are not seen as gross, taboo nor do they have stigma and neither do periods. And that vaginas are appreciated as much as the other parts. Also that men are not more attracted to femininity and that they would rather any type of woman than a man. Plus that female domination is an attitude and that instead other sexual stuff with vaginas is mostly used to convey this, like face sitting. And that sex is not seen to be all about the penis
Why is the online world showing differently? And how do the sex positive f eminists who say that vaginas are hated, still want sex with men? The things I read put me off men for life, unfortunately. It's ingrained in my mind that men are not fussed about that part. For me the bare minimum I expect of them is that they appreciate vaginas. So why do other women let it slide? I can't associate with people and I will become reclusive/avoid people if what I read online is true. I won't accept being surrounded by a society where most believe and accept it.

Also that men are more attracted to a performance or costume of femininity than they are to actual women. So feminized men are less of a turn off than women with unshaven bodies, fat women, non feminine women, etc
Also that f emdom is mostly about penis imitation in the form of straps ons and pegging
And that sex without a penis (lesbian) is not taken seriously but sex without a vagina (gay) is
I asked my parents, sister and psychologist about these things and they said that the vast majority of men have no interest in transgender women pre op nor post op nor women who have penises and penises in general. They also said oral is 50/50 between men and women. And that vaginas are not seen as gross, taboo nor do they have stigma and neither do periods. And that vaginas are appreciated as much as the other parts. Also that men are not more attracted to femininity and that they would rather any type of woman than a man. Plus that female domination is an attitude and that instead other sexual stuff with vaginas is mostly used to convey this, like face sitting. And that sex is not seen to be all about the penis
Why is the online world showing differently? And how do the sex positive f eminists who say that vaginas are hated, still want sex with men? The things I read put me off men for life, unfortunately. It's ingrained in my mind that men are not fussed about that part. For me the bare minimum I expect of them is that they appreciate vaginas. So why do other women let it slide? I can't associate with people and I will become reclusive/avoid people if what I read online is true. I won't accept being surrounded by a society where most believe and accept it.
2023.06.08 14:55 xfallenangelx95 27/F seeking an emotional bond with emotionally mature and like minded people from Europe.I would love to meet someone talkative!Someone who wants to talk on a daily basis.It isn't easy to find a friend on reddit but I'm trying my best.I'm interested only in long term frienships.
Only Europe Please - short note - If you're not into reading or receiving long messages,don't read any further + Please If you don't want to read everything because of my post being too long for you & instead of reading It all - ..skip some parts - find another person to talk to.Let's respect each other and our free time. All people criticizing/making fun of me & other people - will permanently be blocked.Pretty much as people questioning my post and giving me unsolicited advice.I'm not here for any conflicts and I know I can't please everyone - I know I never will.. However It's me who should feel comfortable in my new potential friendship & obviously someone interested in being my friend - not the whole world which is why I don't need any advice from people who don't even want to be a part of my life. The amount of rude people on Reddit always criticizing others and making fun of them is unbelievably high but let me tell you something - NEVER let anyone make choices for you and criticize you only because you're different! Always fight for your dreams and never let anyone make you think you're worthless! It's your life and you're the one deciding what's best for you - If you want to judge me despite not even wanting to talk to me or give me avice better block me
Hello guys! 🙂 (read everything before you decide to send me a message) Please send me a message ONLY If you're in the same situation and If your expectations are the same as mine.I want to find like minded people from Europe (Why Europe? Read my post to find out) I'm looking for something permanent (remember - you can feel lonely even If you're surrounded by others - If there's no emotional bond) I'm fed up of meeting people who never make any time for me & only text me once or twice a week to ask me "what are you up to?" Out of boredom.I don't want to meet people asking others a million of questions like "what's your favorite movie?" Just to give you one word answer and ask you another question "and music? Your favorite song?" I'm looking for something "deeper" & different🙂What kind of friend would I like to find? Someone to talk to on a daily basis - Someone who needs It & wants It just as much as me
What are my expectations? I would like to meet someone in a similar situation – why? Because I honestly feel like only a person with the same expectations and a similar outlook on life would get along with me & because I feel more comfortable talking to people like me..Friendless people who need a strong bond - people without friends and without partners..Don't get me wrong…Most people deserve to be happy and It's good to have friends but people who have friends or families in real life are usually more focused on them ( which is completely understandable) & have less time for others + I simply don't want to be replaced by anyone..I kind of envy people who can call others , true friends given I don't have an emotional bond with any of my acquaintances. Whenever I hear that others have friends I simply get sad because (believe it or not) If I had to choose between 20 people to talk to (Acquaintances) and one special person - I'd choose that one special person without any hesitation .
I also want to talk to others on a daily basis mainly because..I want to see someone’s effort & be someone's first choice - not another person to have random conversations with..Why I'd rather talk to people from my continent? Well..Mainly because I would like to see someone I'd get along with - In the far future - face to face :) + I don't want to wait any longer than 6 hours to receive a message - Especially given most people are always available on social media sites & keep their phones in a pocket.Once you receive & open my message - get back to me (If you're as serious as I am & really need a true friend) waiting 6 hours to receive a message is more than enough
I'm by no means criticising people who don't want to talk to others often / People who really are super busy & People who want to find someone to have non important conversations with - I'm aware that not everyone has the same expectations which is why everything you're reading now - is here for a reason.All I'm suggesting is - I don't want anything temporary and I don't want to be the one always giving more than receiving.Listen people - I used to ignore being..ignored by others..always being just an option to talk to during tough times or moments of boredom.I was too young to realize that I was never important enough for most people that were a part of my life I don't know who needs to hear this but..No one is too busy to make time for you! People make excuses to avoid others because they prioritize everything and (maybe) everyone..over them. It's true that most people really are busy - but It takes only a few seconds to start a conversation (If you're into short messages) and a few minutes (1-10/15) to type a long message Don't let anyone lie to you.
Truth is that most people either don't like you enough to make time for you or just simply - feel no need to talk to others often but are they too busy? No..You don't need to send me a message just to ask me and tell me "Do you really want to talk daily? I like long messages but I can't promise to contact you often" If you really are unsure please don't send me a message.I don't need more acquaintances aka people to talk to - occasionallyI'm not trying to sound rude - I just don't want to meet new people and get emotionally attached - only to end up being left alone after weeks or months of daily conversations.I'm sick of that never ending story and always meeting people who ghost me without a single word (even if everything seems to be ok) or people who "change priorities" over time & become like strangers…I don't want to go through this ever again.Let me tell you one thing – A true friend would never just give up on you for no reason :)It’s always possible to find someone to have a random conversation with – someone willing to send you one message once or twice a week..but..It’s almost impossible to find people willing to make time for you.
I’m not asking a busy person to make time for me by changing some plans! Absolutely not! I’m here to find someone who wants to talk daily (throughout the day or maybe even night) of one’s own will.Someone looking for the same kind of connection.Strong friendships are based on mutual support. One of the best things you can do for a friend in need, is just to be there for them when they want to talk.I often see posts from people who always say how friendless they are because they don't feel loved or appreciated by their "friends" remember! A true friend - someone who truly likes you or someone who wants to get to know you - will always find time for you. 🙂
I'm not really interested in small talk/short messages - I love long and meaningful conversations. It's so easy to find someone who loves abbreviations and questions like "How are you?" How was your day? Or what are you interested in? But so hard/almost impossible to find a person who knows how to keep a conversation going & show others some effort.Building and maintaining friendships takes time and effort.Never allow pursuits or possessions to become bigger priorities than your relations with other people.Close friendships are so important to us because they are so difficult to form + Having friends can help you feel as if you belong to something that brings purpose and connection to your life
• I do NOT respond to any „Hey,hmu” or „u want to talk” type of messages (super short messages or messages full of abbreviations – I literally can’t stand abbreviations and acronyms in text messages) ALL messages full of abbreviations will immediately be ignored.I also don't like it when people ignore everything I say in private messages just to focus on some question or? Start talking only about themselves.. I love conversations with people refering to every part of my messages - not just some question.
• No dirty messages PLEASE.I'm not looking for anyone to flirt with and I'm not looking for a partner either. No NSWF profiles..I always check people's profiles (Even comment history) - To avoid guys,trying to get inappropriate photos from adult women or? flirt with them & If your comment history is full of rude comments - you and I wouldn't get along! I can't stand people who judge other people and use vulgar words to describe them or? Make fun of them.Respect is very important
• If both (you and I) are from the same country (I live in a non-English speaking country ) - I want to communicate with you in our first language! No - Not because I don't understand English because as you see - I do. Why then? English is simply overrated and people don't appreciate other languages as much as they should. So.. If we're from the same country and you want to talk only in English (which is quite common on reddit) - Talk to someone else. I just simply don't want to talk to a person from the same country - in a foreign language as It's just something I don't understand even If all you want is to practice your english
• Please only adult people 18-36 age range (I'm 27)
• I don’t respond to messages I don’t find interesting even If they're long - If after receiving and reading your message I don't feel comfortable or think "I wouldn't get along with him/her" I simply do not respond (what I’m suggesting is that I don’t always respond to someone’s first or second message because..sometimes you just know If you’d get along with someone or not- I’d never ignore anyone after days or weeks of daily conversations though) just because I don’t want to do anything forcefully & because I don’t want to lead anyone on. I read all messages but I definitely don't respond to all of them! I want to make it clear because I don't want to be accused of not responding and not reading people's messages! - Some people don't message me back as well and even though It is a bit disappointing I'm ok with that! - as long as there's no emotional bond - I think it's ok to not respond to someone's first or second message If people think they wouldn't get along! I can't stand being ignored after days or weeks of daily conversation and seeing people changing priorities but that's something different - something I don't want to go through ever again for real If I'm really interested in someone's message - I respond within a matter of minutes - max 6 hours (If I'm in bed - just sleeping) you won't even hear from me "I'm too busy" because I know myself and If I really was too busy to make time for others - I wouldn't be here. I either want to talk to someone..or not.I don't want to pretend someone I'm not and always try to find some cheap excuses to avoid others. (unlike some people)
• Don’t ask me “Can you tell me something about yourself?” If you really want to get to know me - you can ask me questions :) I'm an open book.
• It would be better If you guys were into emojis - just like me - just to describe your emotions through text. Two emojis - 🙂 and 🙁 are completely enough I just don't like emotionless messages.I also don't like it when people say "yeah" or yea"as it sounds dismissively.
• I want to talk on reddit first (just to make sure If I'd get along with you ) before moving to Discord or some other app
• Time response matters to me a lot! It matters to me whether I get a message back after one hour,three hours,6 hours or..12 hours and even..after a couple of days..And If you're another person just looking for one day conversation and then? "Disappear" for some amount of time longer than one day to come back and apologize me for being busy - don't even leave me a message.I just want to be honest with you from the start.I'm interested only in daily conversations
Why can’t you see any of my interests listed down below? Because what really matters to me is..who you are (If you’re honest,talkative,understanding,caring and trustworthy – for example) just simply – It matters to me what you’re like! not what you like.Don’t get me wrong – you can tell me what your hobbies are but in my personal opinion,common interests are important mainly when you want to find a gaming buddy (for example) or If you want to meet someone to hang out with in real life and..go bowling for example.What most people seem to care about are other people's interests – I don’t. I get along with other people despite having completely different hobbies but I absolutely don’t get along with people way different than me (different expectations and outlook on life– way different sense of humor or personality traits – It’s just an example) It doesn't make ANY DIFFERENCE to me If you're a gamer or? Someone interested in photography! It doesn't make any difference - > as long as you're talkative and kind and If you also want to find someone willing to stay in your life..for good - But If you're into small talk and all you want is to...type and receive super short messages or If you're here only because you're bored and don't know what to do + If you're a very sarcastic person - I'm definitely not for you!I don't get along with overly sarcastic people turning everything into a joke. Friendships should be natural – not forced.
Both people wanting to be friends should feel comfortable and have something in common. No - not necessarily a similar taste in music or movies but something else..Most friendships don't fizzle out because of people not having the same hobbies but..because they just simply have different expectations when It comes to something important.I'm not here out of boredom and trust me - I'm not here to meet as many people as possible.I choose quality over quantity.I higly value myself and my time & Sometimes one person but a person who makes you feel comfortable and understood - is more than enough :) We ALL can choose what kind of people we’d like to talk to and maybe even become really good friends with and I? I don’t want anyone to be disappointed.We all have some expectations after all.I know that people don't have to talk everyday to be friends but I'm interested only in daily conversations with someone also interested in talking dailyIf you really need someone to talk to due to loneliness and If you have time to talk to me daily (throughout the day and maybe even night)I always make time for others.I'm literally always available.I could even stay up all night long only to talk to someone. I’m ready to commit but only If there’s some chemistry between me and someone else.I don’t do anything forcefully.
If you want to talk to me tell me your story - tell me why you're here, what kind of friend would you like to meet :) Et cetera.Such messages are way more interesting to me than...someone's long list of hobbies. I know! It's unusual on reddit but I don't make friends based on hobbies..I want to meet someone with the same mindset as mine to finally feel understood and get close to someone new.You can share your problems with me - I absolutely don't mind "complaining" as I've been through a lot in my life.What do people usually tell you when you tell them that's something's wrong? "Don't complain" or "Life's not over yet - one day you'll be happy" or "There are worse situations than yours" and..obviously "Find a therapist" Life's not a fairytale and sometimes things don't go as planned.Emotions shouldn't be bottled up.I'm sick of people always telling others "everything's gonna be ok" move on " & more..Trust me people - not everyone wants to hear "Just believe in yourself and everything's gonna be ok" Some people take it as reassurance. But others see it as false hope. Imagine being told that things will be okay, only for them to get worse..Do you guys know why telling someone "everything's gonna be ok" Is wrong? Because you can't see the future.
You can't guarantee others that one day they'll finally be happy + when It comes to social interactions - We're only responsible for ourselves - not for others & as you guys know people let us down quite often (sometimes even when there's no reason) so instead of telling people how they should move on,forget everything and be happy or asking them to find a therapist - be there for them! Always be willing to listen to them If you really like them or want to get to know them & don't suggest everyone in a tough situation to find a therapist because a therapist won't ever replace a true friend + It's quite normal to be disappointed If people always do something to hurt you.Sharing your hardships with other people in a very similar situation or exactly the same one - is VERY helpful If the other person understands you & wants to start all over by just letting it all out & feeling emotional support instead of always hearing some "positive quotes" or someone saying "Stop complaining let's talk about something else"Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on. I appreciate sensitive people who always try to understand others.Empathy is everything
Our world needs more peace 🤗 I've seen a lot of rude comments on reddit.If you don't agree with me - OK but please don't criticize me + Not everyone is here to ask for advice.Listen people - I know how different my post is & I know It won't be easy for me to find what or rather who - I'm looking for BUT I always want to be myself instead of pretending someone I'm not and lying to others.I know It would be easier if (like others) I had less expectations but I I know what I want and honestly? If my post was different..I wouldn't be me.Even If I won't meet a person I'd get along with - that's ok! but don't give me any unsolicited advice because I wouldn't change for someone who doesn't even know me pretty much as I wouldn't want to change anyone else.I'm not trying to "fit in" and be like everyone else - just to get more attention.Accept me for who I am or let go - is my motto.I'm not here to argue with anyone and to make fun of others.
Please - If you're a completely different person than the described type of person I'm looking for (If you love abrreviations,If you don't need an emotional connection,If you're sarcastic and quiet) or If you simply disagree with my post - don't force yourself to send me a message.I want my new potential friendship,to be natural which is why I want you to contact me If your needs are the same - I don't want you to try to change yourself only to please me - Pretending to be someone you're not - is the worst.I know It's possible to find what I'm looking for as I had conversations with people looking for exactly the same thing and being nice to me - I want to believe in my luck again as I had it a few times on reddit - I've recently lost someone I thought could be a friend of mine (such a perfect match) and I'm sad but I want to finally be happy again & find someone always wanting to talk - sending me random pictures throughout the day - food pictures or pictures of some animals and what is the most important to me? To find people who value online friendships as much as they would value real life ones as there's another human being on the other side
No comments please.Only Private messages and chat requests.I don't really like public conversations and I also do not respond to comments so If you want to send me a message just do it without saying "You can DM me" + I'm online almost all the time and yes - I am very selective but If I had to choose between having another (new) acquaintance and being in the same situation as I currently am - I'd always choose second option.I don't need more people to talk to every now and then and any chit chat so please think twice before you decide to send me a message

Hello guys! 🙂 (read everything before you decide to send me a message) Please send me a message ONLY If you're in the same situation and If your expectations are the same as mine.I want to find like minded people from Europe (Why Europe? Read my post to find out) I'm looking for something permanent (remember - you can feel lonely even If you're surrounded by others - If there's no emotional bond) I'm fed up of meeting people who never make any time for me & only text me once or twice a week to ask me "what are you up to?"

I don’t want anyone to be disappointed.We all have some expectations after all.I know that people don't have to talk everyday to be friends but I'm interested only in daily conversations with someone also interested in talking dailyIf you really need someone to talk to due to loneliness and If you have time to talk to me daily (throughout the day and maybe even night)I always make time for others.I'm literally always available.I could even stay up all night long only to talk to someone. I’m ready to commit but only If there’s some chemistry between me and someone else.I don’t do anything forcefully.
If you want to talk to me tell me your story - tell me why you're here, what kind of friend would you like to meet :) Et cetera.Such messages are way more interesting to me than...someone's long list of hobbies. I know! It's unusual on reddit but I don't make friends based on hobbies..I want to meet someone with the same mindset as mine to finally feel understood and get close to someone new.You can share your problems with me - I absolutely don't mind "complaining" as I've been through a lot in my life.What do people usually tell you when you tell them that's something's wrong? "Don't complain" or "Life's not over yet - one day you'll be happy" or "There are worse situations than yours" and..obviously "Find a therapist" Life's not a fairytale and sometimes things don't go as planned.Emotions shouldn't be bottled up.I'm sick of people always telling others "everything's gonna be ok" move on " & more..Trust me people - not everyone wants to hear "Just believe in yourself and everything's gonna be ok" Some people take it as reassurance. But others see it as false hope. Imagine being told that things will be okay, only for them to get worse..Do you guys know why telling someone "everything's gonna be ok" Is wrong? Because you can't see the future.
You can't guarantee others that one day they'll finally be happy + when It comes to social interactions - We're only responsible for ourselves - not for others & as you guys know people let us down quite often (sometimes even when there's no reason) so instead of telling people how they should move on,forget everything and be happy or asking them to find a therapist - be there for them! Always be willing to listen to them If you really like them or want to get to know them & don't suggest everyone in a tough situation to find a therapist because a therapist won't ever replace a true friend + It's quite normal to be disappointed If people always do something to hurt you.Sharing your hardships with other people in a very similar situation or exactly the same one - is VERY helpful If the other person understands you & wants to start all over by just letting it all out & feeling emotional support instead of always hearing some "positive quotes" or someone saying "Stop complaining let's talk about something else"Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on. I appreciate sensitive people who always try to understand others.Empathy is everything
Our world needs more peace 🤗 I've seen a lot of rude comments on reddit.If you don't agree with me - OK but please don't criticize me + Not everyone is here to ask for advice.Listen people - I know how different my post is & I know It won't be easy for me to find what or rather who - I'm looking for BUT I always want to be myself instead of pretending someone I'm not and lying to others.I know It would be easier if (like others) I had less expectations but I I know what I want and honestly? If my post was different..I wouldn't be me.Even If I won't meet a person I'd get along with - that's ok! but don't give me any unsolicited advice because I wouldn't change for someone who doesn't even know me pretty much as I wouldn't want to change anyone else.I'm not trying to "fit in" and be like everyone else - just to get more attention.Accept me for who I am or let go - is my motto.I'm not here to argue with anyone and to make fun of others.
Please - If you're a completely different person than the described type of person I'm looking for (If you love abrreviations,If you don't need an emotional connection,If you're sarcastic and quiet) or If you simply disagree with my post - don't force yourself to send me a message.I want my new potential friendship,to be natural which is why I want you to contact me If your needs are the same - I don't want you to try to change yourself only to please me - Pretending to be someone you're not - is the worst.I know It's possible to find what I'm looking for as I had conversations with people looking for exactly the same thing and being nice to me - I want to believe in my luck again as I had it a few times on reddit - I've recently lost someone I thought could be a friend of mine (such a perfect match) and I'm sad but I want to finally be happy again & find someone always wanting to talk - sending me random pictures throughout the day - food pictures or pictures of some animals and what is the most important to me? To find people who value online friendships as much as they would value real life ones as there's another human being on the other side
No comments please.Only Private messages and chat requests.I don't really like public conversations and I also do not respond to comments so If you want to send me a message just do it without saying "You can DM me" + I'm online almost all the time and yes - I am very selective but If I had to choose between having another (new) acquaintance and being in the same situation as I currently am - I'd always choose second option.I don't need more people to talk to every now and then and any chit chat so please think twice before you decide to send me a message

2023.06.08 14:52 juicewrld4lyfe im still in love with my ex best friend
long story short, me (18f) and him(18m) have known eachother for 6 years and were friends for almost 5 years. we were really close but super toxic and on and off the entire 5 years due to romantic and sexual tension. during those 5 years, hes sexually harrased me online and degraded me and enabled my eating disorder. he would try to emotionally manipulate me to break up with my current bfs or send nudes or talk about sexual things even when i tried to set boundaries bc he knew how much he meant to me. we would fight alot and it would get really explosive, and we often went no contact with each other. depending on the argument it would last for a few days or a few months. i started to slowly implement small permanent changes to slowly ween myself off staying with him and standing up for myself. eventually during one of our no contact breaks he had some form of character development where he came forward and apologized for everything. he then would go back to trying to just talk about sexual things like experiences or kinks etc and then we would fight again. the last time we talked to eachother was earlier this year was again after a no contact break, and it was a really mundane conversation abt university and work. ig he got the memo that im no longer interested in sexual convos and i just want to be normal friends again. before that no contact break, the last time we talked was when i was going to commit suicide. he was the only person i felt the need to talk to and say goodbye to. despite all his emotional abuse, manipulation and sexual harassment, i still loved him more than anything. i wanted him to be the last person i spoke to and i wanted to go in peace knowing my final moments were with the person i loved most. it was really emotional and i confessed so much to him that i was too scared to say before and just a huge massive formal declaration of love and goodbyes. he managed to get me to promise him that i will see him in the morning again and wouldnt leave me until he was sure id be okay. he told me he loved me for the first time ever but he said he only loves me as a friend and apologized for all the pain he caused me.
i feel as if its my fault everything turned to shit and that maybe if i wasnt in love with him i couldve kept our friendship. before finding out i had a crush on him, he never seemed interested in me that way. he was the best advice giver, a warm comforting person to go to when i was upset, funny, kind, caring and passionate. he knew me better than anyone else and i could be my most vulnerable around him and i told him everything nobody else knows. he wasnt really that open about his trauma or mental health issues until towards the end of out friendship. even during the time he was emotionally abusing me, he was also the best friend i had before any feelings were discovered. its like he had two sides to him. i feel really ashamed to still love him. i forgive him for what hes done and i still love him more than anything. it really hurts he has that side to him and he’s realistically someone i cant be friends with anymore. we’ve become incompatible and changed too drastically.
i feel as if my poor mental health is another reason he mightve left me. i was really unstable with my identity and i have bipolar disorder and am extremely suicidal and self harm. i also gained a lot of weight bc of health issues and depression, so ig im not really his type anymore. i feel like if i maintained my appearance better and werent mentally ill he would still be in my life. i cant tell my friends bc they’re sick of me talking about him. im crying while typing this because i miss him so much. everytime i get a notification i hope its him. everytime i leave my house i pray that i see him just one more time. simple things like trees and the sun will unlock fond memories of him that ive repressed. i think i really do need therapy to sort out all my issues, but especially with my trauma/feelings regarding him. therapy is too expensive for me at the moment as i just make minimum wage and dont live with my parents.
i just dont know what to do. its consuming me, how much i love and miss him. i dont feel like myself after losing him at all. ive lost who i am and i dont know how to live life without him. yeah i have other friends but nothing even comes close to how much i loved him and how close we were and how vulnerable and safe i felt with him. all my emotions are really numb and dull, even things like crushes are lackluster for me. i have a girlfriend at the moment and the love i have for her feels so lifeless compared to what i felt with him. i thought it was because my girlfriend and i have a healthy relationship, so its not as exciting as all the arguing and toxicity and that i love her in a healthy way not a desperate obsessed type of way. my online friend told me that uf she was my gf she’d break up w me for still being hung up over my ex best friend. i feel like such an asshole and i dont know what to do. i love my gf and shes amazing and one of the best things that has happened to me, but now i feel like i dont deserve her and should just break up and be miserable alone. im too scared to even confide in her bc i dont want her to leave me.
i know i dont want him romantically anymore but i desperately want my best friend back. i would genuinely give anything. im just hurting so much and im so conflicted. i feel like i have some weird watered down form of stockholm syndrome.
thank you for reading this far if u did lol. i really needed to get it out of me as ive been crying nonstop and staying up feeling frantic about all of this

2023.06.08 14:52 Ok-Reward-6390 21 [M4F] Brazil -3/anywhere -- non uninteresting man looks for a good thing
I haven’t even flirted for such a long time, and lately, during those boring lunches where people just talk about heiresses’ dogs’ illnesses (a Pomeranian dog shares all her illnesses with her owner) or gossip about some technocrat who has a limp and who may be cheating on his partner, and while rice with cod is served, I am asked “darling, are you dating yet?”. No, I am not, and here I am, mostly because dating apps are too dull – unfortunately the odds of being flashed by a Jewish 19 year-old from Manchester is smaller on these things, though sometimes you might have some luck and end up being insulted randomly by a Portuguese girl, who is visiting her uncle.
I do have names, and surnames, and I was born in a big city in Brazil. My sister used to describe our childhood address as “a building with cars and trees and buildings”, which is a rather good description of much of the city. For a while I wanted to join the seminary but after having to face the fact that this was an inadequate career choice considering I didn’t believe in God and had always found masses to be awfully boring (though fascinating at times – the priest at my childhood church used to go on long rants about things, of which there are many) often turning my back to see the watch, and so I chose the next best thing: I am studying sociology, which involves, in many ways, taking a vow of poverty. I also work at a small online newspaper so I am well informed on sub celebrities and local occurrences such as babies heroically rescued by policemen after choking on the thing babies eat. And yes, I write poetry sometimes.
I am fascinated fairly often by everything, or many things, at least so you won’t be bored. These last days I ended up reading a lot of things about Egypt after reading about Ottoman chief eunuchs being exiled to Cairo after their tenure. In general, I really enjoy the humanities. I follow politics keenly – in fact, there is some chance I might have some thoughts on your country’s politics – and I’d say I am on the centre-left – pro-choice, in favour of a robust welfare state, LGBTQ+ rights, affirmative action. If you know about Brazilian politics, I voted for Marina and Haddad in 2018 (the voting age here is 16), and Lula last year.
As you can imagine, I also really enjoy reading and writing. Besides poetry, I have often thought about writing a novel, but this seems like too much work – and it seems that it would be arrogant of me to write a novel having lived this little, though it wouldn't be uncommon. I really enjoy learning about other languages and cultures and I know a bit of French, German, Spanish, and Russian, besides English and Portuguese. I’d really like to learn Arabic and/or Mandarin. I am really into genealogy, and I know quite a bit about it. I often cry while watching dumb movies (I cried during Minions!) or listening to beautiful music; my music taste has been described as “fairly gay” and in movies as “slightly gay”.
I guess I am pretty introverted, polite, and timid (well, I am on here after all). I am affectionate and I can be really passionate as well. And I am fairly funny, or rather, I have made a few people laugh over the years. I asked a close friend to describe myself, and that is what he said:
Who am I looking for? I’d like someone curious about the world around her, and open-minded. The rest? Cultural differences can be interesting and I am open to converting (nominally?) to most world religions.
Some poems I really like:

I think you’re very communicative. Shrewd, funny, a good companion. Kind of withdrawn but not necessarily shy. You avoid conflict and unnecessary arguments, but love to participate in good conversations. I think you’re very kind too, besides being polite.As for what I want to do with my life, I am unsure though I am inclined to go into academia. I have been considering applying to a PhD program in the U.S. after finishing my undergrad here in Brazil. My family does want me to go into their business, which is related to politics. I have also considered going into diplomacy.
Who am I looking for? I’d like someone curious about the world around her, and open-minded. The rest? Cultural differences can be interesting and I am open to converting (nominally?) to most world religions.

2023.06.08 14:51 netscribesinc1 The Insurtech Revolution: How Technology Is Changing The Way Americans Buy Insurance
 | submitted by netscribesinc1 to u/netscribesinc1 [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/zae2d8ydjs4b1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=852c5b1326dfe45379b29b36905d20be5133c2d6 Insurtech revolution in the US has been phenomenal over the past few years and the technology has been able to meet the evolving customer requirements. The insurance market across the globe is huge, with the US insurance space being one of the largest as far as premium contribution is concerned. The intersection of insurance and technology has helped in simplifying claims processing, lead conversions, and much more and has overhauled traditional processes as well as legacy systems. It is noteworthy to mention that the COVID-19 pandemic has also contributed to the growth of the insurance tech space, emphasizing the significance of innovative solutions that emerged relatively late in the sector. As of 2021, the U.S. insurance industry was valued at USD1.4 Tn (in written net premiums), with life and annuity insurers accounting for 52%, while property and casualty accounted for the remaining 48%. Case in point, the global insurtech market size was valued at USD5.45 Bn in 2022 and is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 52.7% from the year 2023 to 2030. The increasing number of insurtech companies in the USA is noteworthy, primarily due to the rising volume of insurance claims and streamlined solutions offered by this new category of companies. Importance of insurtech in the modern insurance spaceInsurtech enables large organizations to explore new options beyond traditional human efforts. Insurtech includes tracking tools like phone applications, auto-monitoring devices, and wearable technology. Customers can enjoy quick accessible mobile options that summarize coverage, liabilities, and premium information. Insurtech has also been aiding companies to become more efficient in underwriting, processing claims, and managing assets. Insurtech capital investment focuses on big data, artificial intelligence, and IoT devices.Related reading: Top 5 Insurance trends to watch out for in 2023 Key insurtech benefits:For customersEmpowering the customer : Insurtech empowers customers, enabling them to prioritize and value every aspect of their lives. It ensures that customers are a part of the process starting from registration to claims.Convenience and ease of access: Insurtech is mobile-friendly, and this is the reason why customers get the liberty to compare, verify and make informed decisions. They can even check the status of claims from a personal device. Increased security and customization: With insurtech, organizations set strict anti-spamming and security policies to safeguard the confidentiality of customer details when they transact online. It also enables the insurance company to collect and analyze customer data, thereby enabling upgraded offerings and customized products. For insurance providersIt has plenty of advantages for the insurance sector as well, which helps insurance players save a lot of money and time. Some of the areas where it helps include customer identity verification and anti-money laundering, underwriting by automation of information collection and assimilation into the record, promotion of innovative new products along with smart contracts, reducing errors, enforcing contracts, etc.Insurtech can simplify various processes, such as KYC, managing claims, fraud detection and risk prevention, payment processing, etc. Digital transformation in the US insurance marketJust like every other industry, the insurance industry has also welcomed technology with open arms. The insurance space in america, just like the banking industry, is often referred to as an out-of-date complicated, and not customer-oriented field. 2021 was said to be the most revolutionary period for insurtechs as all the above-mentioned problems gave rise to the insurtech development in the United States.Technology is a blessing in this industry, the pain point of which is over-complication. This is where insurance tech companies can come to the rescue and provide the most feasible solutions. Moreover, the US insurance market has been regulated since the beginning. One of the earliest signs of evolution in the insurance space was the use of scanners and complex algorithms for accurate pricing of insurance premiums. What is digital transformation, anyway?In conclusion, digital transformation encompasses leveraging technology, including artificial intelligence, big data, the Internet of Things, and robotics, to develop innovative solutions and enhance existing ones.Insurtechs are transforming the digital industry in more ways than one.
Current market trends in the insurtech space
Insurtech has been attracting a lot of funding from investors recently. Innovation in insurance is booming with the help of this new range of companies that leverage technology at every step. Insurtechs raised USD14.4 Bn across 644 deals in 2021, beating the 2020 number by around 87%. Even though the industry has seen comparatively lesser funding last year, we are hopeful that the same will bounce back on the back of digitalization. As per a CB Insights report, insurtech funding dropped by 4% quarter over quarter in the third quarter of 2022 to hit USD 2.3 Bn, which is the lowest since the second quarter of 2020. Some notable transactions that happened in this genre last year include Berlin-based insurtech company Wefox closing its Series D funding round at USD 400 Mn, thereby bringing its valuation to USD 4.5 Bn In another deal, a tech-enabled provider of workers’ compensation insurance to small businesses, Pie Insurance raised USD 315 Mn in Series D funding. Coalition, a cyber insurance provider, got funding worth USD 250 Mn in Series F funding thus hitting a valuation of USD 5 Mn. Both established companies and startups in the space are well-poised for growth fueled by investments and increasing market demand. Key players in the insurtech spaceA host of new Insuretch companies are slowly changing the US insurance marketplace.

These companies are constantly challenging themselves and coming up with unique solutions that are in line with the ever-evolving market. Challenges in the insurtech marketDespite having so many benefits, the insurtech market has to endure multiple constraints. The challenges include a shortage of professionals skilled in advanced technologies and a lack of awareness about insurtech, among others. However, it is believed that traditional insurance will be replaced by technology-driven insurance in the form of low code technology, embedded ecosystems, AI and ML, etc. 85% of insurance organizations understand the requirement to prioritize digitalization. Let’s have a look at this on a deeper level.Regulatory hurdles: With regulations getting introduced or current regulations being updated, insurtechs need to navigate compliance requirements constantly if they want to thrive. Intense competition: High competition in the market consists of both traditional firms and insurtech companies. To stay ahead, insurtechs need to upgrade their solutions. They also need to work closely with traditional insurers as they look for partnerships or getting acquired by the firms. Data privacy and security: Ensuring the security and privacy of customer data will remain a priority for insurtechs to eradicate negative consequences for companies as well as customers. Difficulty in customer adoption: Insurtechs need to gain customer trust and even convince them to adopt the services. What the future holdsNevertheless, the future appears promising for insurtech players as the world gradually embraces digitalization. More and more people will start looking for more streamlined and easy-to-avail insurance products. Insurtechs will rely on technology to provide more personalized insurance products shaped by data. By focusing more on technologies, insurtech players can enhance their respective portfolios. Traditional insurance companies will enter partnerships with Insurtechs to stay relevant in this huge market. Insurtech players will make a change in the market that will help them thrive led by research, empathic and intuitive design of user-centric interfaces. We hope to see more collaborations and tech-driven initiatives by startups in the near future.Amidst the increasing challenges posed by new players entering the market and evolving consumer demands in the insurance industry, Netscribes equips firms with the most recent data and valuable insights.

2023.06.08 14:50 Rhazior /r/DNDNL steunt de Reddit Blackout in protest tegen de aangekondigde API veranderingen. Vanaf 12 juni tot ten minste 14 juni zijn we Read-Only. Meer details in deze post.

Zoals besproken in deze post doen veel subreddits vanaf 12 juni mee aan een protest tegen een aangekondigde beleidswijziging van Reddit. Er is vooral verzet omdat niet-officiële Reddit-apps onrealistisch hoge bedragen zouden moeten gaan betalen om te blijven voortbestaan.
Het protest bestaat uit het 48 uur lang sluiten van de subreddit, van maandag 12 tot woensdag 14 juni, of tot Reddit de beleidswijziging ongedaan maakt.
Deze subreddit heeft een duidelijke functie voor het vormen van TTRPG groepen, vandaar dat we hebben gekozen voor een Read-Only status i.p.v. compleet ontoegankelijk worden. Als je een groep zoekt, overweeg dan één van de bestaande posts te lezen en daar te reageren.

2023.06.08 14:49 Zakidou23 My cornsnake never comes out
Hello, I have a ~1.5 - 2 year old corn snake and he's always underneath his water bowl on the cool side. He never comes out and never explores. I've read online that corn snakes are very curious and active snakes and explore their habitat, but mine never does. He is pretty curious when I take him out for handling, and will sometimes remain visible in his habitat for a couple of minutes, but then quickly disappears in one of his hides. His current habitat is a 36 x 18 x 18, has 4 hides, has lots of fake plants, sticks, and other coverage / decor. What could make him not come out?

After a busy semester and the stress that comes with it, you need time to relax and recuperate. The transition period between semesters can be especially challenging if there is no structure in place for leisure activities or goals. Therefore, taking steps towards creating a routine and establishing healthy habits will help manage your mental health over these long vacations. First, prioritize self-care by engaging in activities that make you feel good such as exercising, reading books or articles related to personal development, meditating etc., Doing things you enjoy like painting/drawing, playing sports or starting new hobbies will also give you an outlet for relaxation while maintaining social distancing measures put in place due to COVID-19 pandemic conditions are followed at all times. In addition to this try and get out into nature regularly as spending time outside has been known to reduce stress levels and improve overall moods; proofreading essays; volunteering opportunities through online websites are great ways of productively utilizing the vacation periods too! Sometimes feeling connected with others helps us ease our own anxiety so reach out virtually via email/phone calls or messages – talking about what’s bothering us can aid clarity & lighten up any stressful situation before it spirals further down its course leading only into despair . Lastly, make sure ample rest (7-8) hours sleep each night & prepare nutritious meals throughout the day -nurturing one’s body should go hand in hand when designing a schedule specifically catering toward managing one’s mental health... |
2023.06.08 14:48 whizzabelle I listened to an ATL song for the first time since the allegations came out and cried, I miss them
DISCLAIMER: I'm aware this is a sensitive topic so I'd appreciate if we could keep it civil 💙
I feel very conflicted.
All Time Low had been my favourite band for 13 years, ever since I first heard Weightless as a kid, it was my favourite song.
When the allegations broke about JB at the end of 2022 I felt so sick. I tried my best to find as many details accounts of victims as I could to try to make am informed decision about who to believe. I hate to say it but... I wasn't even surprised. J's stage persona has always made me feel uncomfortable, even as a kid (never met him, just what I've seen at shows and accounts from other fans online). As an SA survivor myself, it was really hard not to believe some of the stories I read about what J had allegedly done to them.
In the end I chose to believe the victims, what hurt me the most is that considering how close all the guys are - surely it would be impossible for them not to know about any of this? There were some stories about Alex not being super appropriate alongside J (not R wording though, just comments and egging on J). I've deleted twitter since then and I can't find the stories by searching for tweets anymore so I'm not sure if they were deleted? Anyway... Alex was my hero for so many years, the idea that he may have known about this made me so upset I can't put it into words.
So I stopped listening to everything, stopped buying their music, my CD and merch collection is collecting dust in a box because I can't bear to get rid of them. Their songs got me through the worst times of my life, including my SA trauma. I haven't listened to a single song of theirs until today, because Runaways got stuck in my head and I couldn't remember the melody. I listened to the whole thing on Spotify and just cried, I miss them so much. I love their music, it makes me feel so nostalgic and happy. Or it did, I felt guilty after listening to. I have autism so I tend to deep stuff more than I should so I feel like it might be coming into play here, I'm honestly not sure?
So my questions for the community are;

So my questions for the community are;
- Is anyone else in a similar position?
- Did the allegations affect how you view any of the members?
- (Bit of a lighter one) How do you feel about Runaways as a song? I remember always wishing they'd release it as a single, it still goes as hard as it did on release day.
2023.06.08 14:47 Pitiful-Arugula-8108 Tip pooling question
Is it legal for a salaried manager to take part in a tip pool here? We have two managers on staff that are salaried that take part in the tip pool and get tipped out each night. One is the house manager and the other does the scheduling and book keeping/we get our tips at end of shift from them (not sure official title).
This doesn’t sit right with me. The justification is that they help out with tipped duties for part of their shifts. However, it’s not the entire shift and I know for a fact that they both are salaried while the rest of us are paid part time hourly.
I’ve heard from another employee that the people in question say it’s legal due to them helping out, but everything I’m reading online doesn’t add up with that logic.
Is this a common occurrence in the city? This is a venue but I won’t say more than that.

2023.06.08 14:47 4d4moffspring Roof Replacement Flat to Terraced - Leasehold Flat
Hi Housing UK,
In England. I am currently in the process of buying a leasehold flat which is taking a very long time to purchase due to the new buidling safety act 2022. I've chased my seller to get onto his solictor and started doing some work myself and found this on the council's website:
https://planningonline.harlow.gov.uk/online-applications/buildingControlDetails.do?activeTab=summary&keyVal=RU30M0HX00600
I am buying a top floor flat.
Now I've read some horror stories regarding bills for the roof to the leaseholders for over £15k and would very much like to avoid this situation of paying a large bill as after deposit and furinture bought I won't have much in terms of savings. And have no control over how much the bill will be.
Has anyone seen a roof replacement in a leasehold flat? Is the freeholder 100% responsible or would all leaseholders be responsible? There are over 80 flats and some commercial entities in the building.
This is the building: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Harlow_Exchange,_April_2021.jpg
Should I pull out of the purchase seeing as I nowknow this information?
Thanks

2023.06.08 14:45 Shit_herewego_AGAIN How to not fuckup your drop year..
 | for the past two months, lot of people have been asking me to make this post after I made that post for "11th wasted", so here it is. submitted by Shit_herewego_AGAIN to JEENEETards [link] [comments] first of all, if anyone is having second thoughts about drop year.. make your mind clear first, having that feeling of doubt is going to hurt your preparation the most Drop year-Pros and Cons, Myths and Lessons by u/mainhoonaa if anyone is thinking of second drop or that JEE is the only way to success Alternative career choices for JEETards by u/Turbulent-Beyond-781 Now if you are 101% certain that you won't regret it, do your best then only take a drop. I'm going to divide this post in 4 parts, 3 for different types of students and 4th for general tips Part-1 Started after 12thfor whatever reason you didn't prepared for JEE in 11-12th and decided to take a drop.JOIN A COACHING.
Part-2 Did Coaching in 11-12th but fucked uplike majority of students, you messed up during your prep and now trying to redeem yourself by taking drop.COACHING OR NOT?
Part-3 Did Well in MAINS, Taking drop for Advanced.This is for those who already have 95%ile+ in Mains but want to try for advanced once more. I did the same last year, and i'm also sure that most of you already have a great chunk of syllabus covered and are confident in your preparations for Mains.COACHING
Part-4 GENERAL TIPSDistractions
Tests
credits: u/TinyResident7128 Finally, dismiss the voices of those who seek to demoralize you. If you have made the resolute decision to take a gap year, let not even a mere 1% of doubt infiltrate your spirit. Rest assured, relatives and others may spew discouraging remarks like, 'its waste of a year' or 'You'll fall behind in job opportunities.' Ignore their baseless conjecture, for they possess no real understanding of the path you have chosen. Release your mind from the burdens of colleges, ranks, percentiles, and all the external pressures. Banish thoughts of making a giant leap from the 70%ile. Such aspirations often prove weak, as a single failure can shatter motivation. This stark reality is precisely why most droppers fail. Instead, set your sights on achieving a remarkable score of 200+ marks in the mains and a solid 50% in the advanced exam. By adopting this approach, with each test, you will witness tangible progress, gradually and consistently Put forward your utmost efforts, for there is nothing left to lose. I have faith in you. You've got this! thanks to u/Cultural-Decision627, u/Moist-Emphasis9582, u/Ravi1001, u/TinyResident7128, and everyone else who commented on this post for helping me make this post |
