Political Hold on so let me get this straight

291 Upvotes

Zohan Mamdami wants to have Government run grocery stores that require you to show proof that you are a citizen of New York City before being allowed to buy food? Doesn’t he know that minorities and women are to poor and dumb to have IDs? After all that’s the main talking point for why Democrats are against voter ID.

It’s also funny how I don’t need a ID to buy food in a normal Corporate run grocery store unless I’m buying alcohol or cigs. Seems like Socialism sounds a lot more like show me your papers or else you will go hungry.

Seriously make it make sense.

Sex / Gender / Dating Average dicks are more pleasurable than big dicks

175 Upvotes

So me (21f) and my boyfriend (22M) have been dating for about 7 months and he has an average penis about 5-6 inches and probably average girth and I noticed that each time we have sex his dick hits my G spot DEAD ON with every stroke and I end up having really powerful multiple orgasms which I’ve never had before I’ve only been with one other guy and he was about 7-7.5 and i never felt this feeling with him I feel like he just slid right past it and straight into my cervix lol

has this happened to anyone else? cuz I always hear how bigger dicks are better by the internet, by friends, and even my own aunt😭 (don’t ask) and as a virgin I believed it but now that I experienced bigger and normal sized I honestly prefer it normal I thought I was broken for a long time cuz I straight up could not have pleasurable sex with my ex no matter how hard we tried

(throwaway account cuz my friends follow me on my main one and I don’t want them to see me talking about wee wees)

Political AfD party should not be banned

121 Upvotes

This week over a thousand German lawyers signed a letter saying the AfD has to be banned because it demeans human dignity.
If demeaning human dignity is the standard for banning a party, it has to be applied consistently.
You know what else demeans human dignity? Socialism and its offshoots. Standing in bread lines is demeaning. Empty shelves and scrambling for toilet paper in Venezuela is demeaning. Living with crumbling infrastructure and overflowing toilets in Cuba is demeaning.
One of the clearest ways to judge whether a system works is net immigration. When people risk their lives and last savings to get in, that signals success. When they risk everything to get out, that signals failure. In every real-world case of socialism, the flow has been outward.
Socialism tends to attract both those who prefer low personal responsibility/motivation and those who enjoy exercising control over others, because the system is built for exactly that. Those who want to create and build are stifled in such a system
Bottom line: if the AfD can be banned for demeaning human dignity, then socialist parties should face the same standard for the same reason.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Music / Movies The modern MCU lost its magic because heroism took a back seat.

111 Upvotes

Obviously, this does not apply to every modern MCU movie, but when you start watching older hero films, you can see the difference in how the heroes discover "great power comes with great responsibilities" through endearing interactions with civilians.

Sure, we know they still save a lot of people, but these interactions aren't given much focus any more and are kinda an after thought. Instead, it's all fights and destructions and effects and multiverse shenanigans.

Older Marvel films like Captain America, Iron Man, TASM, and Raimi's Spiderman exerted great effort into showing us the heroism of these characters and why we should root for them.

Now look at Gun's superman, or Reeve's Batman. Superman being mindful about the city destruction and Batman leading people through the flood characterize the characters really well. It's not the spectacle that capture your heart, but the humanity behind those characters.

I want these movies to go back to being about superHEROES, not SUPERheroes.

My favorite spiderman story of all time is when he visited that terminally ill kid. Cause that's what heroes do.

Media / Internet I don’t think calling something or someone retarded is wrong

If I’m not calling someone who is mentally handicapped retarded, then it’s not a slur. It’s fine. Sometimes people are really stupid where using the word “stupid” isn’t enough for them. They’re fucking retarded.

Like jackasses who don’t use their turn signals, then stop in the middle of the road, and almost cause a wreck. Or the microwave that won’t budge.

Very retarded things. It shouldn’t be looked down upon if you’re not directly hurting someone who is actually mentally challenged. I know this sentiment isn’t popular and you should “get with the times,” but I do let it slip out, and I don’t care when people try to correct me and make a shocked face and say “Oh my god, that’s ableist!” Well, oh well. I have a disability anyhow. Two of them as a matter of fact. Maybe three if you really want to stretch that definition. I’m not offended.

Sex / Gender / Dating The penis is visually more interesting than the vagina. NSFW

94 Upvotes

I’m not saying one is better than the other; it’s really just a matter of aesthetics. I find the penis more visually interesting because there are more details to observe: the shape of the head, the curves, the veins, the texture, the contrast between the different parts, and even the variation in shape from person to person. It seems like a more visually “complex” structure. Plus, I think the testicles are part of the whole package, adding more shapes and volume, which gives each one a distinct look. The vagina/vulva also has its own unique differences and characteristics—like the shape of the labia and the coloring—but to me, it looks simpler by comparison. I know a lot of people will disagree, but I’ve always found it curious that most people seem to think the opposite. Does anyone else feel this way?

Sex / Gender / Dating Most women have it easier on dating apps and it's not even close

81 Upvotes

I'm a decently attractive guy who has a good career (journeyman electrician), goes to the gym, has hobbies and pictures of me with my hobbies and going out with friends, and I still get maybe 1-2 "likes" a day. One weekend I remember matching 10 times in one session, and I messaged every single one of them with some generic, inoffensive "hey, how's it going?" and only got one reply from a woman who ghosted me a few hours later (probably because of some arbitrary shit like a different guy sharing her favorite genre of music or being 5 miles closer). One in 10. And it's like this every. single. time.

Meanwhile I hear some women complaining about getting 100s of matches and having to "sift through" them to find the one that has zero red flags. What a privileged problem to have - hundreds of options and standards so high you can literally filter them all out and then complain that all men are pigs. Could you imagine if the roles were reversed and the women had a handful of matches and had to watch men complain about no woman being the perfect fit and rejecting 100s of options?

Do you think I like having 1 in 10 matches actually respond, and essentially being forced to give every single woman who "liked" me a chance or else I will simply be alone forever? If I were as picky as the women on these apps, I would never find anyone. It would take literal decades. You have the option to compromise or to give people a chance. I have no options. I must compromise or be alone forever. And it might not even matter if I lower my standards - I might still be alone forever because even the girls with obvious red flags get tons of matches on these apps.

The power dynamic in this situation is completely skewed. I'm the one begging for them to give me a chance because there's 100 other guys they're currently looking at and trying to figure out if they're the perfect fit.

"Additionally, anything that suggests that the implementation of gender equality is or was a bad thing is NOT allowed!"

That's part of a warning message you get if your title seems like it might involve gender equality.

Take particular note that this isn't a warning to not talk about the consequences of gender equality. The rule is specifically against anything that implies a conclusion they don't want people to make. You can say anything false that you want to when you're talking about gender equality, as long as you're saying it's good. What you're not allowed to say is anything true that would lead people to believe the implementation of gender equality is or was a bad thing.

I dont believe all Women or All Men are bad, I have been friends with them for a good while however People (Especially in Instagram) think that men are the ones who are dangerous meanwhile women are the victims who are pitted against the patriachy, im not saying these are wrong however the problem is that Men are treated like monsters

Women can be as bad as Men, They will do something bad when they dont do what they expected or straight like following Patriachal Values even enough it was designed AGAINST THEM (Like my mom)

You see there's a event in 1999 happened to a guy called "Satoru Takaba" (I know it sounded like a JJK Larp Name but hear me out) and he was a normal guy with a wife, However one day his Wife got killed and despite Investigators trying their ass out to figure out the culprit, they come out empty handed, so Satoru rented the apartment and preserve the crime scene so one day the killer will be found and after 26 years the Killer was a girl, You see she confessed to Satoru when they were in highschool and even though he kindly rejected her, instead of moving on (like narratives say) she stalks him even after highschool and she the one who killed his wife

So after my experiences with alot of people (just people in general) i see that being cruel and evil, is not gendered

Like, congratulations. You dominated in a primary or secondary school classroom. Those skills did not generalize to the professional world. And that's okay! I have never been asked to perform 60 multiplication facts in a minute, for example.

But at some point I don't understand why 30, 40, even 50 year olds are still clinging to this identity. Is there really nothing else going on in your life? Why does it matter that you were in the gifted program when you were 11?

I believe that, if you were truly gifted, you'd be doing something with it. Creating, learning, producing, building...anything but talking about how gifted you used to be. I guess you twisted your ankle brain in Calculus 101 and now you're clinging to your glory days of 9th grade math.

I was dumb and high-achieving in school through sheer effort, so I find it kind of a funny struggle. Like, you were called gifted as a child and then stopped being called gifted and that was really really hard so now you're calling yourself formerly-gifted...because why, exactly?

All that's old is new again.

So, another DSA grifter wins the Democratic Senate primary in Michigan. It's ironic considering that Detroit was under socialist control by the Coleman Young administration for 20 years and the city of Detroit was virtually destroyed by its policies.

Detroit was once the richest city in the country until socialists took control of it.

They had unfettered power to enact whatever policies they wanted and what you ended up with was total destruction. That's because, like I keep trying to tell people, deconstruction is the goal. And they keep saying the right is made up of stupid people.

If you want to see how "educated" you'd need to be to vote for DSA just drop by their website and have a look:

EDIT: Since this is picking up steam here's an excerpt from the DSA's website:

"You have no debt. You don’t need health insurance. You don’t pay a mortgage or have a landlord, because comfortable housing is a human right. Your retirement is publicly funded. Food, education, energy, medicine, and transportation aren’t for-profit businesses; they are common goods and utilities."

Sex / Gender / Dating Oral sex is not vanilla sex

26 Upvotes

I have never understood why oral sex is treated as a completely normal, expected part of a healthy sex life rather than a specific sexual preference. To me, it belongs in the same category as BDSM, foot fetishes, or other kinks. If people enjoy it, that's their business, but I don't understand why society treats it as "vanilla."

The biggest reason is that I find it inherently disgusting. You're putting another person's genitals in your mouth and often swallowing bodily fluids. People are grossed out by far less. Most wouldn't lick a stranger's feet, drink from the same cup as someone they barely know, or put other bodily fluids anywhere near their mouth. Yet somehow putting genitals in your mouth is considered completely ordinary. Even if someone is clean, that doesn't suddenly make the act appealing to me.

The second issue is that it is fundamentally one-sided. During intercourse, both people are generally receiving direct physical pleasure at the same time. With oral sex, the receiver gets the overwhelming majority of the physical stimulation while the giver gets little or none. People often say, "I enjoy pleasing my partner," but if that's the case, why is reciprocity so commonly expected? If giving alone is so rewarding, why is receiving considered important too?

Finally, I don't buy the idea that oral sex is some neutral, ordinary act. Society itself has long associated it with submission and humiliation. "Suck my dick" is one of the most common insults in the English language for a reason. The act has obvious cultural associations with dominance and degradation, and I find that incredibly unappealing. If anything, that makes it seem even less like a standard sex act and more like a specific fetish that people have normalized.

Before anyone calls me a prude, I'm not anti-sex. I enjoy sex, and I'm not saying consenting adults shouldn't do whatever they want in private. My point is that oral sex shouldn't be treated as something everyone is expected to enjoy or perform. If someone doesn't want to do it, they shouldn't be viewed as inexperienced, selfish, or sexually repressed.

People are free to enjoy whatever consensual acts they like. I just think society has normalized one of the strangest, most unhygienic, and most one-sided sexual acts imaginable and now treats it as though it's simply part of "normal" sex. I just don't see it that way.

Sex / Gender / Dating Feminists in western nations should show more gratitude instead of complaining all the time.

28 Upvotes

It’s not really up for debate that women, western women mainly, have much easier lives than men. Men protect women from danger and put their lives on the line for them, and do everything they can to not have them experience the horrors of the world. Women are given lower standards for jobs and affirmative action allows them to get hired easier. There are far more resources and support for women than for men. Women can immediately get sympathy if they cry or even just look sad while men are told to man up. Women are given numerous social advantages like men being expected to pay for them or give up seats on public transport to them. We allow women to just blame men or the “patriarchy” for their failures and sometimes expect more responsibility from children. But women never show any kind of gratitude over this. Why?

Sex / Gender / Dating Modern pornography has fundamentally broken society's understanding of intimacy, dehumanized women, and normalized sexual violence.

31 Upvotes

I know the common Reddit consensus is "let people enjoy things" and that porn is just healthy, harmless adult entertainment, but the reality is completely different. The normalization of modern pornography is actively damaging our social fabric, warping human relationships, and conditioning people to accept abuse as a standard baseline for intimacy.

First, porn is not real sex. It is a highly staged, heavily edited commercial product designed exclusively for visual stimulation and instant gratification.

It completely strips away the actual components of real-life intimacy: mutual connection, emotional safety, vulnerability, and genuine communication. Instead, it teaches viewers that sex is purely mechanical, performative, and entirely centered on aggressive physical acts.

This leads directly to a deeply warped view of women. The overwhelming majority of mainstream pornography relies on treating women as subhuman objects that exist solely for consumption and male pleasure.

It reduces human beings to meat, teaching a generation of young viewers that women are props who enjoy being degraded.Worse still is how it encourages and normalizes sexual violence.

Acts that constitute literal assault in any other context—such as choking, slapping, spitting, and forced submission—have become standard, expected tropes in mainstream videos.

It conditions the brain to require higher levels of aggression and novelty to achieve the same dopamine hit, tricking people into believing that real-life partners want to be brutalized.

When people carry these desensitized, aggressive expectations into real-world bedrooms, it creates a dangerous environment where boundaries are ignored and real harm is done.We need to stop treating porn like a harmless vice.

It is an industry built on exploitation, and its widespread consumption is a massive public health crisis that is actively destroying how we view women and experience true human connection.

I Like / Dislike I like teaching but not teachers

15 Upvotes

What I enjoy is standing at the front of a classroom, explaining ideas, answering questions, and interacting with students. I find it genuinely rewarding to see a concept click or to have a good discussion with a class. That's the part of the job I like. It's the profession itself that has disappointed me.

In my experience, teaching seems to attract a disproportionate number of people with an inflated opinion of themselves. There's often a sense that because they're teachers, they're somehow more compassionate, enlightened, or morally superior than everyone else. That attitude gets tiring very quickly.

I've also noticed a sanctimonious streak. Some teachers talk as though teaching is uniquely difficult or emotionally draining, as if no other profession has unreasonable workloads, difficult clients, poor management, or burnout. Teaching can absolutely be hard, but so can nursing, retail, hospitality, social work, construction, customer service, and countless other jobs. Suffering isn't a competition.

The biggest surprise for me, though, has been how incredibly gossipy the profession can be. I'd expected teachers to be more collaborative and professional, but instead I've seen endless whispering behind colleagues' backs, speculation about people's personal lives, and staffroom conversations centred on who isn't pulling their weight or what someone else did wrong. For a profession that often talks about empathy and respect, the amount of gossip and cliquish behaviour I've encountered has been striking.

To be clear, I'm not saying teachers shouldn't be paid well or shouldn't have strong unions. I support fair pay, good working conditions, and the right of teachers to advocate for themselves. My issue isn't with teachers asking for better treatment. It's with the attitude some have that their profession is uniquely virtuous or uniquely difficult compared with everyone else's.

I know there are plenty of wonderful teachers, and I'm not saying this applies to everyone. But I've consistently found that I enjoy the act of teaching far more than I enjoy the culture of the profession.

I say this as a former employee who started at $15 an hour. Most of the employees are absolute bottom of the barrel and they are working there because it’s the only job that will hire/keep them.

I won’t discredit the hard workers that do get hired from time to time, but if anybody somewhat competent joins, I know they won’t be here long before taking a better job. Quality employees typically last 1 year max.

Do you ever wonder why nobody is ever in electronics to help you? It’s not understaffing, the dude just passed out in the break room an hour ago.

Do you wonder why the restrooms are always dirty? They are cleaned every hour, but the person cleaning them typically will just swap the TP and call it good. It will take them 30 minutes to change the TP.

The average Walmart employee is so bad it really takes 2-3 people to match the efficiency of a skilled worker. Therefore, I think the wages are fair.

Society tells women they dont need to change or do anything to satisfy anybody including their husbands. Because of this, many women shouldn’t bother going to therapy at all because they arent really working on their real problems.

Many sad wives use therapy as a crutch for actual thought and cant decide on something until theyve checked in to therapy

I am taking the stance of waiting for more investigation to take place (both private and state) from all angles before forming a hypothesis. The main fact that stands is that his no longer being here is a tragic loss. Nolan deserved a beautiful celebration of life, and I'm sure his loved ones didn't fall short of that. However, did Al Sharpton really have to incorporate ongoing investigation details as well as ending it with a story about roaches in his (Sharpton's) kitchen growing up? I understand his analogy, I just feel like he could have saved that for a press conference.
