I see what you're saying. What makes me curious about this is why guys sit in their room alone more often than girls do? Why aren't we men naturally as social as women are?
-
Oh, I thought these days that there are now as about many women as there are men who play video games. So, young women still generally don't stay in their room alone as much as guys do?
-
Oh ha ha. So, even if she rejects me I will still have my pride and confidence and others around me will still think I am cool, yeah?
-
You know how you said before that the social skills of most men from the millennial generation have atrophied a lot from having played a lot of video games, computer games, texting on the phone more than calling on the phone, watching too much tv shows/movies at home, jerking off to porn, etc.? Well do you think most women from the same generation have also had their social skills atrophied a lot these days from having done all of those things?

A lot of times it's hard for me to read the room. I mean I thought back then that the conversation was going well at first and we met in a bar, which we know is a kind of place that many girls go to find someone to hook up with. Also, I didn't think that what I said was totally out of left field. hard for me to know what is appropriate at the moment and what is not. Yeah, I get that sometimes certain girls I meet just won't vibe with me either because they were not in the right frame of mind or because they simply weren't compatible with me. I also get that the more direct or more aggressive your approach is the more polarizing you will be to girls, which indeed will mean that you will get a lot more rejections from a lot of girls, but also a lot more makeouts/sex from a lot of other girls. Okay, from now on I'll try to avoid making sexually explicit jokes with new girls I am talking to, unless the girl I am talking to is flirting hard with me or if I am sure that she's into me. What's an example of saying a sexual joke from a shitty state? Also, when you say reframe the girl as her not having a sense of humor if doesn't laugh at my sexual joke, should I reframe the situation verbally by telling her something like she's a prude, or do you mean just reframe the situation in my mind?

Good idea, OP. I've been a member of Toastmasters for over a year now. It definitely has helped improved my overall speaking skills in many ways.

I actually have had the opposite happened to me. I am Jewish and I've have had Christian friends and other Christian missionaries out there who tried to convert me or persuade me to join their services, religion, or church. Yet, I had a muslim roommate when I was in college who turned out to be a good friend of mine and not one time did he ever to try to impose his religious beliefs nor did he ever try to convince me to join his religion or mosque. -
Good job, OP. I started out doing something very similar to this when I was a part of a CBT group therapy program for social anxiety. It helped a lot. Btw, this free approach anxiety program has a complete step-by-step practical method for tremendously improving your social anxiety: https://www.goodlookingloser.com/anxiety/program If after trying something like the goodlookingloser program still doesn't cut it for dealing with your panic attacks, then I would strongly recommend you see a psychologist or psychiatrist. There's no shame in seeing a qualified mental health expert or therapist. I've been to countless therapy sessions and have seen numerous psychologists and psychiatrists for most of my life. Those professionals can't totally solve all of your mental health problems, but they have definitely been both useful and needed for all kinds of people with all kinds of clinical psychological disorders and issues.

Then what do you think it was? Bad karma? -
I posted a video on this on my thread “This is a frightening scenario.” I too am about this possibility. Though I think Roy is probably right.

Dude, you’re asking for a ban from this forum. -
So, then you think that Leo and social science experts have been wrong about the decline in overall racism, huh?
-
I remember Leo mentioning in his "How Society Evolves" vid, on the necessity of people from older generations dying off and being replaced by the younger generations. He said that the people from younger generations are generally more conscious and more liberal than those from the older generations. That means that younger people theoretically are in general less racist than older people are. However, I am not sure if this is the case here in America with those who are conservative or Republicans. It seems like the younger generations of Republicans or Conservatives are just as racist as the older members of the GOP are, if not worst. What are your thoughts on this?

Well, I figure that there is no point in being respectful to them because both sides are never going to be able to get along with each other. It's a fantasy. -

Why should I be more empathetic to them when they are the ones who are being totally selfish and unempathetic? They need to be held accountable in some way. -

So, what if there is an "anti-vaxxer" in all of the us? The sad fact is that nothing can be done to change the minds of these dangerous morons. They will have all passed away by the time we all pass away. -

Anti-vaxxers have rotted brains. End of story. -
Well, then that's disheartening. Is it possible that the passing of all of the civil rights acts for the black and brown in the whole US actually merely suppressed their racism within most Conservatives and Republicans from top-down instead of actually getting them to work on transcend their racism? As cold-hearted as this sounds I wonder if maybe the passage of all of these civil rights laws became a long-term mistake for the greater good of the country just like how it was a grave mistake for the US to go to middle Eastern countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan and try promoting democracy in those countries by way of top-down force and suppression. Communism suppressed religion in Russia and still continues to most of religion in China; however, that didn't work at all to make the citizens of each of those countries transcend religion to secularism.
-
Yeah, but I wonder if racism hasn't been declining at all from the GOP or American Conservatives. I am worried that Republicans and Conservatives as a whole population may have actually gotten more racist to the point of wanting to truly back to the old times when the Jim Crow laws existed.

Nobody knows yet. It could've been death from a heart attack. Heart attacks are silent killers. -
I actually like some of the Indian films. Some of them are very creative and unique.

This is shocking and very sad. May he Rest In Peace. -
I have to say, I am really amaze that India has had some kind sustainable democracy. It may not be as good as the democratic governments within 1st world countries, but it seems to have somehow worked out for its own country. I wish I knew how India has been able to have it for such a long time when it has over a billion people the country, most of whom are still so poor, its country has a very underdeveloped infrastructure, and the vast majority of its citizens are not secular. Why hasn't India slid back to being an authoritarian state?

There is this book called The Red Queen: Sex and the Evolution of Human Nature by Matt Ridley. I haven’t read it, but I’ve heard that it is a good book to read on why women are wired the way they are from a scientific evolutionary perspective. There’s also Rollo Tomassi’s book called The Rational Male which discusses in depth the sexual market value of both men and women. I haven’t read that one either, but it’s been pretty popular within the Manosphere.
