Hmmm.

If he’s unwilling to make even the slightest adjustment for you, that makes me inclined to be concerned that he doesn’t respect you.

The ability to clear browsing history is what’s keeping most modern marriages alive.

Sunscreen!

It’s been too long, I’m glad you're posting again.

Maybe she thought that she didn’t have to give us a wedding gift because she was a bridesmaid?

Apparently you do care, and are easily offended.

It’s a step forward as a society that we’ve needed to take for a long time. There is no reason why cars are boy toys and dolls are girl toys. It’s unnecessary to label them at all, and it really limits the stores ability to plan floor space when they have to force full aisles of boys/girls toys as opposed to combining…

I love how most of these people default to “pussification” or “sissify.”

The same happens on military flights. My unit was weighed on their way to Iraq. It made sense, what with how much people weigh with all their gear.

You went that far, and didn't go with Mansplaneing?

Agreed. I've been on the 19-passenger planes (where the pilot is also the flight attendant, and he doesn't give a shit about the standard flight attendant protocols), and they've just eyed the passengers up and made them change sides of the plane accordingly.

I’m probably in the boat that would be a little self conscious about my weight if weighed at the airport but fuck that shit, weigh my ass if that is going to keep us safe in the air, cause once up there and shit go sideways, all bets are off. ALL. ALLL BETS ARE OFF

By “mansplaining” do you just mean “being male and participating in a discussion”? There are times and places to call out men who insert themselves obnoxiously into a conversation that isn’t about them, or who condescendingly claim to be experts about women’s experiences — but that doesn’t mean we’re never allowed to…

I took a smallish plane that required weighing once. Luckily, they allowed you to get on the scale with your luggage so it wasn’t too traumatizing. I was ok with it, what I wasn’t ok with was that on the return journey they didn’t weigh us and actually had people sitting all down the middle aisle. It was a very, very,…

Same here. Not seeing g a big issues here, unless the airline employees are going out of their way to be jerk about it.

How is this mansplaining?

You’re an idiot.

Think about what you just said.

A couple people on a small plane with limited luggage is necessary.

LOTS of people and LOTS of luggage on a large plane is still just as necessary.

My dad owns a plane and I have to listen to him talk about this stuff ALL the time when we fly places. Weight matters and the most exacting,…

Likewise. I’ve been on small flights where this is important information.
