It’s mostly women who enforce this behavior, not men. If you want to call that patriarchy, I think you’re applying the term a little too broadly

Ok but that’s like, almost every woman. It’s not just the occasional shithead, it’s a systemic thing.

They plan on raising the limit when there’s no children around.

Yeah it’s crap. Summary of arguments:

• raising speed limits on highways won’t relieve congestion: 1) yes it will, and 2) that’s not the point anyway

• Higher speeds cause more crashes: fair point

• Higher speeds burn more fuel: no shit

• Think of the children!: not even worth addressing

I dunno about you specifically but one of your ilk convinced me that Social Democracy is not really socialism and is more like a flavor of Liberalism. Just off the top of my head. Another one convinced me that some forms of anarchy are a viable system of government, though not my preferred one.

You ask for criteria on when it’s too important to vote 3rd party. I give you criteria. You say, it doesn’t matter, I’m still voting 3rd party. What was the point of that whole interaction if nothing could possibly change your mind?

No, you’re right, I was looking at another comment and thought it was by the same person.

A few answers so far:

• If I cry in public people will ask if I’m okay

• I can ask for help with heavy/awkward things

• I can just hand a meat cleaver to my friend in a public library and no one will be freaked out

It’s not shocking that a woman wouldn’t want to be called a girl. It’s shocking that this particular woman claims to speak for all womankind. Fuck that noise, I know plenty of women who say “girls” and “boys” to refer to females and males of all ages.

Speak for yourself lol

Women are not a monolith
