Median age of first marriage has been early twenties since at least the middle ages. Your grandparents would have been very unusual (although not criminal).
It's gone up to mid to late twenties in the last few decades, and was lowest in America during the post WWII baby boom.

I believe the technical term is "kidfucking rapist".

And with that, Fart Machine and PantsGoblin knew this would be a very special friendship.

Not a woman, are you?
It's always been common - at work, at parties, on the bus, walking down the street - but now non-harassing men can see it in a way that they can't rationalize as rare or not-so-bad or chalk up to oversensitive women blowing things out of proportion.

I know people tell you to just be yourself. You, you should pretend to be someone else.

Just a quick text to say 'don't rape anyone else, please and thank you.'

But it was one of those accidental rapes!
You know, happens all the time. No need to be so harsh on the poor dear. Some men just don't know any better - we should be more understanding toward the young, innocent rapist. Explain to him calmly and kindly that rape is a bad thing.
That should clear it all up - maybe he

These days, his grandfather would probably be a multiple divorcee posting MRA screeds on Reddit.

Just get, like, a king size Snickers at the gas station.
Maybe some Doritos if you're feeling it.

Yuuup. He didn't have any doubt about what she wanted. He just didn't care.

Great Advertising, Internet!

You're being a normal human person, with normal, conflicting human feelings.
You guys need to decide as a couple what mutual 'happiness' might look like. Nailing yourself to that cross won't do anybody any good.

Well, you know how so many people are. Terrible.

You don't know how things are going to go until they're going. Talk to your wife. She probably cares if you're unhappy.
She knows you, she (presumably) loves you, are you afraid she thinks you're a loser?

That's how I took it, too.
When one of the characters (I think Sherlock) says to Fiona "So you can't lie", she responds that it's 'hard' for her to lie. And later at the cat cafe, she also says it's 'hard' to be polite.

I just want to move forward! I hate the wallpaper here. It was ugly 20 years ago, and hasn't aged well.

I've been seeing two common arguments from people irritated by the sowhite controversy.
Either
"The awards aren't a meritocracy and don't have any meaning, so nobody
should care about representation"; and/or "people who aren't white haven't done good enough work to be nominated". Both involve tying yourself in knots to

Pretty sure the hateful misgendering was intentional.

I saw a long range study that asked singles to rate and list preferences and deal breakers, and then checked in with participants after they had married or partnered up. The preferences and deal breakers had no relationship to the people they wound up with.
It's all pie-in-the-sky navel gazing. Fun but ultimately

It means that those of us whose naked bodies are punchlines can get as many tatts as we want, I guess?
I mean, we could do that before, but knowing that we're not ruining Core Concept's viewing pleasure is such a relief.
Since we already ruined it by not being the most beautiful thing in the world, we can embrace the
