Which doesn’t negate any of the offensiveness of the OP as he didn’t know about it at the time, so what’s your point?

Which he didn’t know when he made the comment so gtfo

Well to be honest, I was in the bathroom.

Hello, Mirena sister! I haven’t had a period in almost 7 years and it’s amazing.

I agree wholeheartedly. I’m just so tired of being told how we need to make feminism easier and more comfortable for men.

Not all of your “hilarious” thoughts need to be shared, Jujy. C’mon, assault isn’t a springboard for a joke. .

That was actually my fault, sorry! I dismissed his reply to me. There were so many salty men in my notifications this morning. Seriously, more than 10 men trying to mansplain feminism and “the real problems” to me.

I was going to explain all this to you, but I’m frankly not in a place where I can afford the emotional labor. Women are tired of loud, performative feminist men. We are especially tired of them manspreading into one of our few remaining spaces. Your immediate jump to defensiveness tells me everything I need to know…

Great. Why are you telling us? You’re preaching to the choir here.

Well, obviously I thought they were cute too. She kind of took the wind out of my sails there a bit.

Sing it, sister. Mr Short controls all the money, and only gives me cash in increments because otherwise manic-me will blow everything in a heartbeat. If this system is working for her, then it may just be one less thing she has to stress about and could be really helping her more than we know.

Now to be fair, I think a bonobo is more likely to fuck or jack off than throw its shit.

Daughter is 10 and a very practical sort, and has already asked me why there are pics of us when she was a newborn with me in a floaty nightgown and flower crown holding her naked little self. Thank god we didn’t do nudes, she might disown me.

I could spend some time explaining all the ways that you’re wrong, but everyone else in this thread has already done that and you’ve gleefully ignored them all. You can be wrong if you want to. Unfortunately, there’s nothing I can do about that.

Same. I’m from Alabama and Georgia, and I really wish I could just be anonymous sometimes, but at this point I’ve been trained to feel rude if I don’t engage with everyone. Its kind of tiring after all these years.

I’m from the Deep South and a very anxious person. I long for the lack of “how’s your mama and ‘em?” every time I want to buy gas or whatever. The Yankee way honestly appeals to me, it seems much more efficient. Surely there’s a middle ground of detached politeness that doesn’t require a 10 minute conversation that…

I have not, but I have avoided a state for this reason.

American tourists use this exact excuse everywhere we go. “I’m not rude, I’m American!” should be our national motto.

Sugar Pie, not all of your super-important White Guy Thoughts need to be shared with the world. White privilege is not a guarantee of an easy life, but I promise you have it in spades.

Love you right back! ❤️❤️ Thank you so much. You’re absolutely right.
