I think the problem can be that people end up having a lot of unspoken assumptions abou what marriage means. While you’re two people who like each other and bang regularly, it’s more or less ok. But the pig story is a great example of someone thinking that wife=cleaning staff. My father was a piece of shit and I got…

Double negative dude.

I haven’t gone through the literature or the training to know what all it entails. The person I spoke with gave me the impression that she was satisfied with the progress her sister had shown. She has to accept that her sister was incapable of true empathy, but being able to spend time with the sister without being…

I couldn’t be more delighted with how thoroughly he’s been trolled. Sam Bee compared it to the Count of Monte Cristo. I mentioned the buffer because I’ve been on the receiving end of Narcissitic rage attacks and even when the attacks are expected and strategically advantageous to you, they can be pretty unnerving.…

It’s really hard for those with NPD to have the motivation to go into or stay in treatment, but some do. I’ve talked with people who have treated NPD relatives, and it appears to be a plan of “enlightened self interest” where their ego is fluffed for not manipulating and exploiting others.

All of the Latin dances they have on DWTS are so whitewashed. Like the samba? What the ever living fuck does that crap have to do with what happens on the streets?

I think the constant attacks are an intimidation tactic, but they’re instinctual for him instead of strategic. He actually believes that nothing he did was wrong, and it is physically painful for him to know that other people think he’s wrong, and he needs to both convince those people that he’s right and punish…

I’ve been dancing salsa for ten years and I would not have recognized that dance as an attempt at salsa if I hadn’t been told. A song with an actual clave beat would have helped. I’m under the impression that the Stars have a fair amount of input on the music they dance to, so I’m not willing to put the JLo=Latin…

The hell mouth is actually about 180 mi SE in Spring Green, WI. Since the late 70s, its boastful ignorance has been swallowing up every instance of beauty or rationality it crosses. Look at Walker, you know it’s true.

Is it that pop music has to be chest voice? Because yeah, I can’t push a C and sound remotely pleasant. But I can pop up into my face and float down onto an F no prob. I guess I took the range bit to be about understanding and working within one’s physiology- know and accept the equipment you’ve got.

Right? Same shit Springsteen did, and Bon Jovi, and Journey, hell even some Alanis. Fucking terrible for your voice physically if you do it too long, too often (looking at you Brucey boy).

...he buttered up his lady friend...

You can think about it like an other potentially (or known) abusive relationship. Adult abuse victims need to reclaim their sense of agency- rescuing them is just transferring who they feel submissive towards. It reinforces their sense of deficiency. You help by listening to them without judgment, so keeping them…

I’m going to respond in two parts. Part one: Yes, anecdotes are not data, and the subjects we are discussing are of the kind where one wants the most support possible. So statistics, data, and clear argumentation appear paramount. And if the purpose of this site is a platform to speak to a larger audience, it is…

Guess he’s not a reader, either.

A bit of a morality tale about what happens when you take away a repressed groups only method of release. King decided even one day without sexually repressing his female subjects was too much of a threat to his power, so he denied them permission to go to the Bacchus party. But Bacchic energy cannot be denied and so…

Makes me want to light things on fire for male victims of sexual assault and stalking. May this little shit never get laid again. And may masturbation fail to sate his desire.
