That it is OK to tell a stranger they are overweight, but not OK to respond "And you have an ugly face but at least it suits your personality".

If your parents disagree with your life decisions, the life decisions are stupid and wrong because older people always know best.


How old are you? I am 22 with this mentality I got dumped

That you have to eat certain things for breakfast and anything that deviates is weird and you should never eat more than once, most definitely not on a regular basis and you should return to eating toast and cereal asap. Like a NORMAL person.


**** normality eat raccoons

Centuries ago, one could have also argued that education was only designed for boys. Clearly not the case today.


And your point is?

That "killing" is accepted as a joke but "raping" isn't.

"OMG I'm going to kill you!!!"
"Wow, Arsenal killed city"
"He/she is killing his/her exams"

vs

"OMG I'm going to rape you!!!"
"Wow, Arsenal raped city"
"He/she is raping his/her exams"

How is killing any more acceptable, even as a joke, than raping?

Because dresses were designed for women
Duh.

But little girls don't have boobies and they wear dresses therefore if you made a large version it would fit a man and so would a lot of women's dresses.

Her point is there's no real reason other than society putting that norm in place. I mean it's not like someone could say it's more convenient for women cos I mean it would probably help a man as well whip the dress up for a pee or poop. Equally little boys used to wear them in Victorian times

Just because something was designed for a particular group of people doesn't always mean that the other group should be excluded from using it.

Good for you :smile:
Tattoos are for criminals and chavs and must not be on show in the work place.

You must own a mobile phone.

Even if a girl has no boobs they still have to wear bras.

Of course clothes can be styled to meet universal tastes and cultural aesthetics.
I mean men wore domestic gowns,kilts and other non westernised attire.
But he could have challenged gender orientated issues in a much border perspective.
A standard dress does not sound very practical to poop or pee in.
I think that they should always be a bounderay between genders

Which you must have on 24/7:rolleyes: I got whinged at for not checking my phone for 3 hours. He then took 4 days to reply to me.

I do winder how people seriously managed before we had mobile phones. I am a tad too young to remember that time.

But it really wouldn't really benefit us, as men,would it?
It would have to be altered and styled as similarly to a gown.






I could wear the above example





Unaesthetic,emasculate,not comfortable
Mens clothing was designed to be more practical and more comfortable.

okay boundaries
Some things just need to be gender exclusive.
