Top threads this week

  1. The saying that “women who shoot their shot will succeed 100% of the time.”only applies to conventionally attractive women.

    Men love to say “if girls made the first move, the guy would always say yes.” However, I strongly disagree with this take. I feel like this only applies to women who meet conventional beauty...

  2. The West is awesome and everyone else copies us

    In todays world, Western countries are called cultureless, and it's popular to throw shade at them. Western countries ended slavery, invented the internet, the automobile, train, airplane,...

  3. Having an outdoor cat IS neglect/irresponsible.

    House cats are an invasive species. People tend to ignore this fact because it has become so normalized to allow them to roam freely that it isn’t questioned. 1. Environmental harm. Outdoor cats...

  4. White guilt is disgusting

    Black guy take. We are not our ancestors. Nobody is responsible or accountable for shit that happened hundreds of years ago. Unless YOU PERSONALLY have done something to deliberately wrong...

  5. Having big families is very inconsiderate for the children

    While the idea of a bustling, lively household sounds heartwarming, the reality often means that individual emotional and financial support gets stretched dangerously thin. Parents only have so...

  6. If it wasn’t for Macklemores controversy over the Ed Sheeran tour, nobody would care about him or his music. One hit almost 15 years ago isn’t good enough to sell out arenas.

    I’m all about free Palestine but at the same time Macklemore is definitely just milking this for his own personal gain. In no universe is he selling out arenas without the Ed Sheeran situation...

  7. Palestine is being used as a way to be an lazy activist

    Beyond what your opinion is on the topic, a lot of people are using the pro-Palestinian movement as a way to show activism but not actually having to put any effort. It’s a valid cause and I...

  8. There are more ugly people than there are people willing to date them!

    Whenever I see someone complaining about how their looks negatively affected their dating life, there is always someone commenting "Well, I know an ugly guy who gets laid". Good for him! That's...

  9. The body hair debate is fucking stupid.

    "If you like fully shaved then you're a pedophile!" that's so idiotic I'm being so fr rn. That's like shaming people who like a clean shaven face just because little boys also lack facial hair....

  10. If you're not attracted to them, you never will be. Don't date people you don't find attractive just to "see where it goes."

    "See what develops..." "Maybe they have a great personality..." "Maybe you'll have a lot in common...​​" No. Stop it. Attraction needs to be a near-instant thing. Attraction is instinctual. It...
