Something Funny

At least you could say that Trump is a good talker. How can anyone fall for this stuttering, mumbling guy with fish eyes who is also saying complete nonsense?

@Salvijus you are the one who was throwing loud words around about how transgenderism crumbles under scrutiny, lol. So I thought you had something to say. You are wording it in such a weird way. I didn't try to give it validity with this post, because it being somehow invalid never even crossed my mind. I was juat really impressed with the badass transformation and wanted to share it, lol. I don't see how it is even necessary and how it is a philosophy. Dude didn't like being a guy so he decided to be a woman. Dude is now happy and looks amazing. That's it. What is there to argue about?

No serious spiritual person would say something like "transgenderism is a scam".

@Salvijus no, me too

@Salvijus your front of wisdom and spirituality is a scam. It crumbles as soon as you open your mouth.

@Jodistrict Lol, are you writing from a parallel universe?

Is he just nervous or does he always talk like this?

@Salvijus idk what you are talking about.

Idk what you are talking about.

You are being so close minded. And it's upsetting how you don't even respect people having other worldviews. Not sure what a teenie bobber is but I would rather be with them if they are nice to others, at least.

No Kind of, yes. No Yes, and I think it's a fair issue to have. What's wrong with expecting your partner to be able to relate to you and meet you halfway?

@Princess Arabia I think I've finally realised what actually bothers me about that attitude. I can kind of respect this position, because yeah, at least you are being honest about it. And all that stuff about strong and independent women is nice but you can't judge a person's whole character on just this one thing. And that's not relly even what bothers me. I understand now that I would just be really hurt by my potential girlfriend's inability to see things from my perspective and emphasize with my position enough to be at least open to paying for herself. Like, I would honestly be upset about it to a point where I wouldn't want to be with her because it just feels so unloving and unappreciative to me. This is what would make it a dealbreaker for me.

I didn't say that it's a bad thing. I just said that you have no idea how it feels for the male perspective and that you wouldn't be able to hold the same opinion about it if you were put in an average man's position.

You just can't not be mean to people, huh?

I honestly don't see any logic behind this. Like why? What makes you say that? This is honestly such a privileged position. Only a person who has never had to go through a labour of asking someone out can hold. In practice, it has everything to do with that. Girls who make it a principle to always pay for themselves are usually the more strong willed and independent ones. There is just something inherently submissive about expecting another person to pay for you. I once went on a date with a power lifter girl (I approached her), guess what - she paid for both of us, lol.

I get your point, It's just that it sounds a bit hypocritical since you have admitted yourself that you never ask anyone out. It's easy to hold that position when you are not actually being put in it. I wonder how you would feel about either being expected to pay for everything or being considered cheap if the only way you could ever get a partner would be by asking them first. I bet you wouldn't be so black and white then.

I guess girls not willing to pay for themselves is also a good filter. Since I don't want to be with a person like that anyway. I want to have a strong and independent partner who respects me and herself.

Okay, maybe not the best example. But your party example is also bad. Why make appeals to culture or majority opinion if we are trying to use reason?

this is going too far

Like really, as if he is not also giving her his time. If she thought that their time is of equal value, then they would cancel each other out. Instead, she feel like her time is more valuable so she wants to be paid for on top of him putting all his time and effort in.

Asking a person out IS THE HARD PART. You should be the one showing appreciation for being approached. You are feeling entitled, to be approached, asked out, taken out on a pre-planned adventure, and also be paid for, lol. But somehow, in your mind the guy is the one who is entitled. This is expected of both parties. And so should be paying your half. It's a shared experience that both people are benefiting from and they should mutually contribute to it. It's not about being cheap, it's about being fair. But I guess if all you see are dollar signs than yeah, very cheap.

@Princess Arabia you are acting like he is a sex worker asking you to pay for your time with him. when in fact he is just asking you to contribute to the date fairly, 50/50

Or maybe bitter, idk

Lol, this honestly sounds so arrogant. I don't see why it should be different? Also, I don't think you are considering this, but you basically filtering out all the guys who are actually genuine and authentic enough to actually have a position on this. Leaving yourself with the kind of guys you see in this thread "I will do whatever if it means I will get into her pants". But maybe that's who you are looking for, idk. Personally, I think that if a man is willing to give up sex and dating opportunities for the sake of his beliefs, that says a lot.
