Cuba also does not have rule of law. Your property can be expropriated at any times. It does not have a free press. You can be made to disappear at any time

[glorianas]

i’ve literally seen people proclaim men with marginalized identities don’t benefit from patriarchy and i mean like you have to have absolutely zero grasp of how patriarchy works to think that and that is probably exactly how they arrived at that conclusion

[godoflava]

The nation state is a product of patriarchy. Let’s equalize global GDP so that American standard of living are equalized with Laos or Liberia

sex is not supposed to be about what you can tolerate!!!!! sex is supposed to be about what you genuinely want and enjoy!!!!! and if you’re traumatized and/or not straight, believe me, I know it’s not that simple to figure out what it is that you actually want and enjoy.

you’re not a bad person if you do something that you don’t particularly enjoy because, for example, it makes your partner happy, but always remember: you have no obligation to engage in sexual activities that you don’t fully like and enjoy. 

and you don’t ever, ever need to justify that - if your partner has an issue with “It makes me kind of uncomfortable” or “I don’t really like it”, then that person does not deserve a moment of your time, in or outside of the bedroom. you don’t have to prove yourself to anyone; you don’t have to meet anyone’s standards of acceptable vs. unacceptable activity (or lack thereof); you don’t have to force yourself to be comfortable with something because of any perceived political connotations of performing or refusing that act.

saying yes because you feel guilty about saying no is not consent. saying yes because you’re scared of what will happen if you say no is not consent. saying yes because you figure you might as well just endure it is not consent. sex ed on here and elsewhere doesn’t give a single shit about traumatized people and I wish someone had told me all of this a lot sooner.

also sex should never be part of any transaction. i’ve seen posts talking about asexuality that say, “i have sex with him and he does laundry, like any other division of chores.” sex should never be a chore or some kind of necessary labor you grit your teeth through. doing dishes is necessary, sex is not

[medusas-jinx]

Also sex is supposed to be a MUTUALLY beneficial, nonessential bonding/fun activity (which doesn’t change ever even if you’re also using it to try to procreate). Transactional sex is not that. And he should be helping with necessary tasks regardless of your sex life; his blue balls are NOT your problem.

[puttingherinhistory]

If sex ever feels like a chore to you, as in you feel obligated to have sex even when you don’t want to or aren’t really up for it, you need to have a serious conversation with your partner and be honest with them about how you feel, and if they’re putting any pressure on you to feel like you should have sex even when you don’t want to, you need to get out of there because that’s sexually abusive.

[godoflava]

Always easy to walk out. To reject pressure. And seems so convenient to suggest he is doing the asking. You make it sound that you ask nothing and offer everything. He should be entitled to Declare being abused when you pressure him for something, when you demand the control he is not prepared to offer. He should walk as well

Extremely false post This post presumes that all manufacturing is done by subsidiaries or sub contractors to American companies It insults Chinese entrepreneurs and industry but excluding the possibility that they could build world scale and low cost manufacturing facilities which could compete in the global market. China is currently whipping America in manufacturing mainly due to home grown industry It also ignores a lot of facilities in China run by Chinese business owners that use child or forced labour A very ignorant post

93% of blacks are killed by other blacks. But the demonstrations are about the 7% Whites die too. No sure why blacks and feminists are not aware of this

Or it’s to make sure they understand the material 🤨

[compose-myself]

Studies have shown that homework does improve performance on tests.

However, it definitely gets out of hand.

I was in JROTC in high school, and we were the national champions every year I was there. That came at the price of three hours of practice a day.

I was on the Academic Decathalon team. Another two hours a day.

I was in four AP classes, for each of which I was told to expect 30-60 minutes of homework a day.

I was on campus from 7:30am to 8:30 pm every day and had between three and four hours of homework every night.

On a normal day, I had 17 hours allocated to schoolwork. In the remaining seven hours, I had to eat, sleep, shower etc.

I was lucky to get five hours of sleep at a time when doctors recommend twice that. To stay functional, I was put on ADD meds. Basically, speed. Then to be able to sleep during the brief window I was allowed to, I took more pills.

I damn near lost my mind.

Much like my favorable attitude toward defunding the police - my support of cutting back homework isn’t a call to abolish it altogether, but to pull back a system that has gotten so far out of hand it does more harm than good.

[the-fault-in-our-balls]

I wasn’t saying that homework is good or bad in how it’s implemented, just that it’s not a tool used to brainwash people. I was also in JROTC (and I took AP classes, got a 4 on the AP lit test) so when you say you were national champs do you mean the drill squad? Raiders? My raider team made it to nationals but we didn’t win(I was captain of the mixed team) just curious.

[compose-myself]

I competed in unarmed drill, exhibition drill, PT, inspection, and academic (really just military trivia). Well, when I say PT, I only did sit-ups. I couldn’t run worth a damn or do a push-up to save my life, but I could do 300 sit-ups in three minutes. Always wanted to try the orienteering and shooting teams, but they practiced at the same time as the others and I had to pick. I should also specify that we were navy champions all four years. We only won the inter-service championship the last two.

I think I could make the argument that public school functions at least as much as psychological indoctrination as intellectual education. Disproportionate emphasis on punctuality and attendance even when sick and a danger to others. Obedience to a bell. Prioritizing pleasing an authority figure who administers mindless repetitive cookie cutter busywork over exploration of interests and passions. Rewards that are comically underwhelming in relation to the effort. Prioritizing anything that brings in money over the student’s best interests.

But in the end, there’s a lot that’s good about public school, and until we’re willing to start paying a whole lot more in teacher salaries, a certain degree of factory-ness is inevitable.

[the-fault-in-our-balls]

You could make those arguments, you could just as easily argue that the bell simply reminds students what time it is. That the repetitive work is to reinforce learning and so on and so forth. Just because you can make those arguments doesn’t mean they do or don’t hold water. I’m sure I don’t need to tell you how I feel about public school though lol.

The amount of schoolwork children in Asia do is 3 times that of USA and Europe. How does USA plan to complete ?

Sounds like taking parents for granted. Also kids have responsibility. If they have it easy then they should excel their parents.

[apathetic-at-my-best]

You missed the entire point of this post dude. Kids have a responsibility to do what? Be an emotional punching bag for adults who don’t want to go to therapy?

[godoflava]

The concept of familial responsibility is not part of Caucasian civilization. But it is deeply ingrained in Asian civilizations and cultures which is 60%of the world population. Confucian, Hindu and Shinto cultures have strong asks from children. Yes parents are not to make children their punching bags. But neither are children to make parents their dumping ground

your value does not decrease just because someone fails to see your worth

[godoflava]

Value is a sum of potential and perception. If people do not see your value then despite your capability they may not trust you to transact with you. Your value will therefore fall. Those who think potential is all that defines value do not work well in teams, and tend to be bitter

Shamima Begum can return for UK citizenship fight

The 20-year-old, who joined the Islamic State group in Syria, has been denied a fair hearing, judges say.

The same groups that defend the right of this ISIS wife to trail tec are the one baying for the blood of the five policemen who were involved in George Floyd’s death as well as those policemen who were involved in the Atlanta shooting. Looks like ISIS is more acceptable to these groups than local police.

Fertility rates have more than halved since the 1960s and the result is that we are facing an increasingly geriatric population. One of the main reason for this is women being unwilling to procreate. Global population is expected to decline by the year 2100. Taxes will rise as pensions and welfare payments will have huge increases. 40% of the world population is in India and China where birth control is highly encouraged and subsidized. The west however has a declining population and has already reached high geriatric levels The above post is more of a rant from US colonialist asking for women to retain the sole choice ( not shared with the male parent) to kill their unborn babies. It is not reflective of those countries where the majority of the world’s population live

Women are women, men are men.. only women can give birth and have periods. Saying men, who decide to have surgery and pretend to be women, can have babies, is offensive to women and utter nonsense.. #science

What you’re describing is trans-women. Trans-men can have babies. Your transphobic ass doesn’t even understand the basis of how being trans works! Meaning your dislike is rooted in lack of comprehension! Interesting!

That aside, men get to decide what is offensive to women now?

[godoflava]

Woman have decided what is offensive to men for a long time

[godoflava]

The term Trans Men is an oxymoron. When men transition to birth giving capability they become women.
