@UncleIroh Ah ha ha ha ha ha. Thank you.

@Pain66 A statement like this is not impressive. Talk is cheap. Anyone can say anything online, but not all females can handle homeschooling four children of different grade levels at the same time while also keeping a house spotless. Show me a female who can achieve something valuable to her family, and then we'll talk.

@UncleIroh Yes. Aptly put.

@ButtWorldsMan Yes. This is normal female behavior. The best solution for you is to walk away and not deal with it, of course, but if one must deal with a complainer, I've found it best to practice my acting skills by asking relevant questions either until such time as the situation dictates that I can extricate myself or until I lead her to give the solution herself. She'll immediately look befuddled and wonder how she got herself to state the solution. It's quite entertaining actually.

What do females want?

...To not be responsible for what they want such as the acts described in this song

Oh, do it again.
I may say, "no, no, no, no, no,"
But do it again.
My lips just ache
to have you take
the kiss that's waiting for you.
You know if you do,
you won't regret it.
Come and get it.

Oh, no one is near.
I may cry, "oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,"
But no one will hear.
My mom will scold me
'cause she told me
that it's naughty, but then...
Oh, do it again!
Please do it again!"

I present to you a song from the "The French Doll" written by George Gershwin in 1922:

"Do it again"
"ell me, tell me, what did you do to me?
I just got a thrill that was new to me,
when your two lips were pressed to mine.
When you held me, I wasn't snuggling.
You should know I really was struggling.
I´ve only met you, and I shouldn't let you, but...

@Tfmonkey Very nice!

@Stahesh US-based companies do not have mandatory vacation that you MUST take every year, but companies are required by law to honor a number of vacation days as written in a contract.

Mandatory vacation also means that time comes out of whatever you're being paid, even if you're a contractor not an employee. It's far better for worker's freedom to have the ability to write contracts.

Any time you see something about needing more government controls, it's most likely socialist propaganda.

@RoninGrey You enjoy it. :)

@RoninGrey Wholesome waifus!

@mrhorsetwat @37712 @VooDooMedic Each man will have it done to himself. No prison is more effective than the prison of the mind.

@VooDooMedic @Stahesh @mrhorsetwat @YoMomz This is the trick: Analyze the differences between the M/F brains, which do clearly exist if you look at the data included, and declare that they have "little overlap" or say they aren't "highly dimorphic."

They even said "It is therefore more appropriate and informative to refer to measures of the brain in quantitative ways," but they disingenuously use subjective measurements like "little" and "highly" to describe the difference in the abstract.

@VooDooMedic @Stahesh @mrhorsetwat @YoMomz Additionally, I looked at one of the studies that this female posted to attempt to advocate that male and female brains are different: https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.1509654112#abstract

They conclude that "Such a distinction would be possible only if sex/gender differences in brain features were highly dimorphic (i.e., little overlap between the forms of these features in males and females) and internally consistent (i.e., a brain has only “male” or only “female” features)."

@Stahesh @mrhorsetwat @VooDooMedic @YoMomz I just read some of the articles on yishengqingwa666's mastadon page not the least of which is the description which says "Mean old radfem nerd."

@Stahesh They're the government, and we let them.

@ButtWorldsMan The people who were influenced the most by Harry Potter were most likely those who were coming of age as the series came out who didn't consume any other reading material because they were complete NPCs who just read what was popular.

@ButtWorldsMan I get that it's a meme, but it's not a good comparison. Rowling wrote a coming-of-age novel series with a soft magic system inspired by pulp fantasy comics. Tolkien created a genre of literature and changed the way all authors look at world building.

And don't get me started on modern wiccans...

@ButtWorldsMan @RoninGrey @sardonicsmile I see by your statement that my original impression is vindicated.
