ACTUALLY... Wasn't there an MI5 episode about Diana's crash?

Well you can cross most of Europe off your travel list then. Service compris.

Having a guy pay for the first date does not preclude paying for the entirety of the second date, nor does it mean she doesn't ask people out and pay for it. There's no twisted logic here, just twisted words that you're putting in her mouth.

WAIT WAIT WAIT. His dad surprised his mom with a house? Stop worrying right now. You're not even starting on the same playing field, let alone level ground.

Haha so it's a he, cis white sceptic... did I nail it or did I NAIL it?

You'll need to check out GradientLair, because she has excellent reading lists; some general books, and weekly round-ups of relevant topics.

And I'm offended that I was forced to read his post twice because his pronouns were bad.

The one time I can recall letting emotion take over in the comments here because I simply could not abide what a person was saying, it was after an extended conversation about an area in which I do not have privilege, and it was at that point that I realized that it didn't matterwhat I said to them, they were still…

Atlantic white-sided dolphin, I think. Similar to the Pacific white-sided, but with a bottle-nose.

You can only hold both genders to the same standard when “the playing field is level.” It isn't, so I don't. Do you have any idea of how much of a devil's advocate jerk you sound like?
