I’m certainly not the first guy to point this out, but men figure out very early that picking your battles REALLY matters. ????-blocking two strange men in a bar is a fairly straightforward way to end up with a barstool bouncing off the back of your head, or even a manslaughter charge if things really go sideways.

Women rarely understand the force doctrine because they almost never face physical violence. Unlike with men, women don’t have to calculate the possibility of having to back up their words with their fists. Men always do. Sure, we make it costly, but the kind of guys who throw hands at perceived slights are unpredictable. Violence is almost entirely theoretical for women, so getting one guy to square off against two “creeps” (just normal guys shooting their shot, no doubt) doesn’t pose a hazard to them.

It begs the question, though: if they’re SIWWDNNM, why can’t THEY just tell the “creeps” to back off?

Lucy Craig certainly didn’t miss any trains. She’s a regular conductor. Sort of gives a new meaning to the phrase “HO scale.”

BTW, I have finally been banned from Reddit for using “Train Hoe’s” real name, although it’s been in the public domain for days since the public release of court filings in New York State. Apparently, not using the preferred pseudonym of a public figure is now “doxxing.” I guess they’ll have to ban CBS News, too, because they confirmed her real name, too.

Obviously the standard is selectively applied (and wouldn’t apply here anyway), so it wasn’t the reason… it was just the excuse. Frankly, I’m surprised it didn’t happen years ago. I only bring it up to let people know that I can no longer cross post to r/WAATGM.

Frankly… good riddance. I was only there out of a sense of obligation to shout truth into the void. Now I don’t have to feel guilty for not doing so.

@Typo-MAGAshiv This is on the border for weekday content, but she merely says "Don't settle" so was unsure. So playing it safe. Did I make the right call?

This one makes me wish we could do multiple flairs but I understand there's likely a technical limitation (such as folder structure). Here's some others I think could have applied "Strong and Independent woman" but yet also "single woman tears" (because she wants a man to make her life comfortable), and "inspin tears".

She popped up on my feed and I enjoyed her videos as she calmly and even sympathetically had a video diary of just ordinary life as something chronically single people go through. I went through her life in my 20's so I empathize but with a core difference: I never said back then "don't settle!!!" although I did recognize when I reached 30 that rules in my frame did require compromise and therefore "settling". In other words, I came to a realization I needed to "settle".

Every time I read a woman on X saying she refuses to settle, I point out that we ALL settle one way or another. We either choose free will, or free will makes the choice for us. Playing as I type this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6pn8O7nXKY

To anyone who says "She seems so kind and sympathetic" and her posts are full of kind comments. Imagine what comments a man would receive if he made posts like this.
