  1. Can you show some studies in mechanism of action?
  2. I can read anger/blame/aggression from both sides. It isn't hard to detect.
  3. It is the angry/aggressive feminist stuff that is perceived as ugly.
  4. Depends on many factors - it can be done.
  5. There is a context you are not picking up on - it isn't the statement quoted being touted as ugly.
  6. I wonder what @VeganAwake is referring to then, as I think it could be different. My understanding of what they express is different to you.
  7. @Leo Gura And to add on - if you want to expand or upgrade any sort of service (hydraulics, electrical, sprinklers, HVAC) you are sort of fucked. Renovations and expandability are almost nill. Want to add a second story? You're fucked. It's like build in redundancy with tech instead of being able to repair. Retrofitting? ROFL Ain't NO ONE wants to bulldoze their house and start over to make a change. Mud houses being romanticized a bit
  8. Do you really think this is true? Or just in this context? I can think of some examples where this disintegrates.
  9. I'm speaking of the personality self. Not Self. This is why I ask you, because I think you are speaking of a different thing.
  10. You don't think it is strange that you have such a rigid, fixed sense of self? I only ask because this seems closed. Not open. Openness is something you seem to speak on a lot. If you were to get married, have kids, and divorse - you would be EXACTLY the same as before. Your memories all the same. The experience wouldn't change you AT ALL?
  11. No. In terms of history and experience. You are the exact same now as prior to the last 10 years? The same as when you were 12?
  12. Are you exactly the same as you are now, as you were 5, 10, 15 years ago?
  13. @integral this Some people build their own houses from scratch in rich countries. Takes a lot longer usually. Can cost more. Dunning Kruger effect. Also in poor countries you normally don't have ten quadrillion regulations to adhere to and insane beauracy. Compliance and building surveyor's. Local council permits just to install a piece of straw in your front post etc. Sure, they have regulations. But it won't cuck you as much as a rich western first world country.
  14. Personal and relational needs are individual though. These aren’t guaranteed by society, because they depend on other people’s choices. In a soft way systems should support and assist relational needs. That's something society should be responsible for. But not outcome.
  15. Is it societies responsibility to find a fix for dating issues? I think it depends what we mean by dating issues. Society fixing a system so there is entitlement to a partner sounds way fucked up, as an example. But if we are talking the concern about widespread social breakdown in forming relationships, that's something that can be worth paying attention to. As long as it is a systems problem and not a rights claim.
