Go by weight. If you have two bundles that have the same number of rolls, the heavier one either has more or thicker squares.

I like how you have no issues with everyone else presuming OP’s gender given the prevalence of heterosexuality, but as soon as a woman does it in a majority male forum like Lemmy, you start mentally breaking down.

I hope you overcome your incel tendencies, learn to stop grasping at straws, and accept that what ever hate you have towards women is unfounded and a product of your delusions.

You’re simpler than you think you are. Explosive temper in your response, grasping at straws and deflecting, calling women bitchy on a stranger’s word.

Some therapy could help with that. Feel sorry for yourself first before feeling sorry for others.

Being able to vote doesn’t make one immune to exploitation. That’s as bizarre as saying that if you can do a backflip you’re immune to drowning.

The reason why 18 year old are allowed to vote is because they are typically entering the work force or higher education, likely paying rent or taxes, and thus are engaging in a social contract in which they are entitled to exercise their right to vote.

This has nothing to do with the lack of dating experience most 18 year olds have that render them vulnerable to understanding what is and isn’t a healthy relationship.

It’s ironic that you would call me the Iranian morality police while threatening to block me for voicing an opinion that explicitly supports the legal exploitation of age gaps. Again, I never said it should be illegal, just heavily frowned upon.

I cum to the thought of being blocked because nothing says ‘You’re right and I’m out of bullshit to say’ more than that.

False accusations are inexcusable and can ruin men’s lives and hurt the integrity of real reports by other women. I’m sorry if this is something you went through.

However, two things can be true at the same time. False accusations are bad, and the rates of unreported sexual assault far eclipse that of false accusations.

Male privilege does not mean that all aspects of men’s lives are easier, only that you have better statistical odds compared to a woman in identical circumstances as you.

Acknowledging male privilege isn’t an act of denying the existence of men’s issues. It’s about acknowledging women’s issues that were not visible to men until it was pointed out.

It’s my female privilege. I get the pleasure of hearing this guy talk more lmao.

People don’t generally set ultimatums unless it’s something that has been bothering them for a long time and hasn’t been addressed.

The way you call OP’s girlfriend ‘bitchy and entitled’ just reeks of misogyny when she never got to tell her side of the story. People like you should be setting aside your own biases and ask if OP is a reliable narrator, instead of taking everything at face value because a man’s word is more trustworthy than his account of a woman’s word to you.

You’re confusing the law with personal judgment.

No where did I say that huge age gaps need to be illegal between consenting adult. I only made a value statement about how the relationship is inappropriate because younger adults are vulnerable to exploitation. At 18, most people do not have the financial means nor a strong support network to leave an abusive relationship or a manipulative partner.

It has nothing to do with LGBTQ people because being non-binary does not make one inherently vulnerable to exploitation by another non-binary person.

Privilege is not a binary concept. You can be privileged in one regard and under-privileged in another, also known as intersectionality.

You can be a straight white male and still be under-privileged as a person born to poor socioeconomic conditions, work in an underpaid job, have a disability, couldn’t afford higher education, be secular, and so on.

Being privileged in one regard doesn’t erase your under-privileged circumstances in another. Women are simply asking for men to acknowledge that there are circumstances made more difficult in life by virtue of being a woman.

A great example is how women typical receive poorer outcomes in modern medicine because of how their symptoms are downplayed and dismissed, but are acknowledged when they happen to men. Your statistical probability of getting better healthcare for being a man, doesn’t negate your statistical probability of getting worse healthcare due to other forms of systemic discrimination like those against poorer patients or chronically ill patients.

How do you know she’s the main tenant and not on a sublease? How do you know what OP means when he said his GF ‘gave’ him one afternoon? If he doesn’t get it fixed, she’ll do what? Stop coming over? Stop sharing finances? Break up?

So many unasked questions and yet everyone is quick to assume that the GF is insane. I wonder why that is.a

It’s a kind sentiment, but one that hurts little for us chronically ill folks.

ITT: People telling OP to break up with her because we are absolutely certain that she is crazy and only gave him one afternoon to fix this, and there is no way she could have been losing sleep for days or weeks while asking him to do something about it, like hold the landlord accountable.

First off, fuck pedophiles.

But secondly, becoming 18 doesn’t suddenly make one any less vulnerable to exploitation than a 17 year old who is 1 day away from becoming 18.

Just because someone is 18 and ‘legal’, it doesn’t make it not gross for a 40 year old to date them. It’s an improvement from dating a 15 year old, but gross regardless.

This is only true until you realize that a lot of modern science is built upon foundations of systemic discrimination that excluded women and minorities. Only new researching can prove old research wrong, and the lack of funding for catching up in inclusivity in science has led to the status quo of outdated beliefs permeating STEM but dressed in a lab coat of credibility.

Research on women’s health and medicine lags behind men’s by decades due to the historical exclusion of women in studies and the refusal to treat them as credible witnesses to their own bodies’ symptoms. Magnitudes of more money has been poured into ED than endometriosis, an agonizing condition that gets dismissed as ‘just a period’ by doctors.

It’s more like a bunch of paraplegic people asking you if they can borrow your wheelchair because doctors will not acknowledge their need for one and dismiss their symptoms as drug seeking behavior.

Speaking as a woman who only got diagnosed in my late 20s after years of needless suffering. Boys are 3 times more likely to be diagnosed than girls because our current ADHD assessments are based on studies from decades ago that were only done on boys. Girls are socialized differently as children and thus present different symptoms. Behavior that is excused in boys for having ADHD, like not being able to sit still or running around yelling a lot, is punished as ‘un-girly behavior’ and internalized as a failure to adhere to gender roles in girls, hence why girls are conditioned to mask better at a young age, at the expense of their own mental health the longer they continue to mask.

This is the other side of the coin from the social media backlash against women coming out with ADHD whilst the internet dismisses them for faking ADHD and being attention whores. Women are punished, not rewarded, for masking their ADHD. The more effort we put into masking, the more people assume we are neurotypical, and the more we are criticized for ADHD symptoms we are unable to mask because we are held to the same standards as neurotypicals.

That’s because the average person has 1.999… legs, hence the appreciation for having 2.
