I'd never heard of that guy, so to save others the trouble, in 1980 he was found "guilty of 33 charges of murder; he was also found guilty of sexual assault and taking indecent liberties with a child" and was executed by the

That's what makes me wonder if this kind of abuser can't help but do these things. But on the other hand, maybe anyone would, if conditions were right. These public callouts which occupy the area between keeping silent and taking

Good points. There's a difference between people accepting your invitations to do fun things and people inviting you to do fun things. My advice is don't keep score for a while but also recognize if it's remained or become on

Skip the "really mentally gymnastic" contortions and say what you mean. There's no question that it takes more effort to think of something better than "hey" to say than it does to read that message. And let's

Bumble is more superficial than Tinder because instead of 2 filtering gates it has 3 and that 3rd gate also removes the opportunity to create attraction through performance or skill. 1. Are you shown to someone you like? Other than paid thi

What's the solution to near monopoly power? Enforce existing regulations against it. Is an unregulated industry or company doing things the citizens don't like? Pester lawmakers until they regulate it.

Not OP, but somewhat similar situation and conclusion. Racism is too strong a word, it's more like sticking out. Like if you're the only one in large group who has black hair, or doesn't have a beard, or is a childless adult,

Is a successful hack even necessary? Threatening to send fabricated evidence of your scandalous kink to people in your work or social circles should be enough. If "that isn't mine" actually works, it works against an actual h

A voting system where voters can prove which way they voted is vulnerable to coercion or retribution. The manager rounds up the workers and "suggests" they all compare how they voted. Those who voted "pro-company" will l

The linked papers provide context for the quoted passages by describing British sexual culture during which Orwell wrote 1984. The party, or rather the government, does influence what's in TV shows and movies. See Carlin's "7

Monogamy should actually decrease sexual scarcity. There are a lot of sexual topologies out there, but let's compare two historically common ones: monogamy and polygamy. Boys and girls are born in equal proportion, and monogamy pairs t

I wouldn't say the dating advice is bad, nor arrogant, just that it isn't as generally applicable as one might think. Of course that assumes you, to whom I'm replying, are actually tall. It'd be like getting football adv

You could be right that the tall guy's face was more attractive than the fit guy's, who's too say. My point is the fit guy didn't meet the threshold for being approached by women while the tall guy did. It relates to wha
