Surgery aside, let's see if you're the person you used to be almost 40 years from now. :)

A friend of mine recently got his high-end watch stolen out of his sock drawer when his house was broken into. Not a single person has asked him, "Why would you take the risk of storing something in a place that you thought to be secure [i.e. his own home] but turned out not to be??" This is the technological…

You're not necessarily "wrong" in the sense that anyone who stores any photo on the cloud is indeed at risk of possibly being hacked. We're all always at risk, all the time, whether it's uploading photos to the cloud or using a credit card or having any kind of online presence that includes personal information. Such…

It doesn't "happen." Men do this. Then assholes like you work on the attackers' side by attacking the victims again.

Well you are wrong , also i notice that in your comment you never mentioned the person who hacked them you just put all the blame on the victims.

As has been acknowledged time and time again, many devices have photo uploading turned on by default and it has to be disabled.

I think it just comes down to: how shitty is the friend you asked to film it?

Oh, sure... there's a huge difference between a public proposal where both parties have talked about marriage and the person being proposed to has let the proposer know that she (or he, though obviously it's almost always a she) wants to marry the proposer. Like, my little sister has been with her boyfriend for seven…

I don't know that you can necessarily get "cold" just from the information at hand. Maybe she didn't want to humiliate him in front of his friends. Maybe she felt uncomfortable saying no when she was a boat and stuck with him and a bunch of other people until they got back to land. And yes, maybe she's just a horrible…

If you KNOW the answer is no you should definitely say so (or defer politely); doing otherwise is cruel. But I can also imagine genuinely thinking "yes" in a combination of adrenaline/panic/pressure and then realizing it's really a "no"; while it sucks to have to flip that, better day of than any further down the…

I mean, if someone you don't wanna marry publicly proposes to you, you'll probably look bad to his friends no matter what.

A disgusting display of rape culture at it's "finest". The fact that these boys didn't see anything wrong with these actions is astonishing. Diminishing their actions by calling it "a stupid joke" that isn't worthy of attention is also, frankly, astonishing. This type of thing should be called out every single time it…

There are a lot of things police don't take seriously. Stolen phones and wallets, break-ins, etc. That's also a resource issue, to be fair. I don't see that as a reason to refrain from attempting to solve a problem through using penal statutes. If "it won't really be taken seriously" was a good enough reason not to…

Long-ass reply here, so feel free to ignore, but thought I'd chime in. Back in the day, I was an introverted, unhappy college freshman who feared women and spent all day staring at the ground and blared music in my ears as I walked between classes. On one of these days, a passing woman from my dorm floor waved to get…

read in man-child whiny voice: But-but-but how can men ever talk to women if they can't be sexually hostile, use intimidation tactics, humiliate her and treat her like a sex object? I mean, catcallers are just trying to continue the very noble process of procreation. Can't you see this? There is absolutely NO OTHER…

I recently reopened my OkCupid account (I was drunk and feeling optimistic, cut me some slack). It's taken a whopping 1 day to start getting weird/pushy/you hurt me in my feelings center messages. I will email you with the especially bad/hilarious ones. Maybe the potential embarrassment of ending up on the web will…

Stop telling people what they are or are not to respond to. You posted, you continue to post. You don't get to have the last word because you want to.

Ok dude, pop quiz: I told my bf that I'd wash the dishes before he got home at 5:10. I got home from work at 4, saw this thread, and was so incensed by your comments that I ended up reading the whole thread and replying, thus wasting the time I was meant to do the dishes. My bf will be home any minute.

It's neat how you started out by minimizing the totally absurd and unacceptable behaviors of these men, made a ridiculous demand about how women act on dating sites, and then have totally ignored dozens of responses that were polite and made a perfectly clear case for why women don't need to act the way you wish. And…

"I can understand feeling rebuffed," Josh said. "It's like impossible for most dudes to get any response in these environments. But these guys have no idea what to do with those feelings, it's scary. And it's always about their feelings. Always about their feelings. Always about their feelings."
