My son has a crush visiting our home for a few days. In typical cringey mom mode, I made an off the cuff remark along the lines of "don't worry--dad and I will make ourselves scarce in case you want to make a move." He looked at me like I had two heads and said: "I would NEVER do that. What if she isn't interested in me? That would put her in a really uncomfortable position." I have never been happier about being called out by my kiddo.
Take heart--there are good men out there. The kids are alright.
EDIT to add: It's really shocking to me the lack of reading comprehension from male presenting redditors. The young woman is STAYING IN OUR HOUSE for 4 days with nowhere to go if she's not interested. Making a move (which really just meant confessing his feelings) would be inconsiderate AF and I really wish more men realized the position they put women in when they make their feelings clear. There is a very real power imbalance when someone is housing you--a move can be interpreted as "payment" or just plain old pressure. Do better buttholes.

I think Reddit has made me realize that the line between harmless, quirky eccentricity and outright fricking lynchian madness that borders on the symptoms of kuru is razor thin.
Seriously. Im convinced it would just take a few pushes for the people who say these things to trepan their child and drink their spinal fluid.

When does arranged marriage become fashionable again?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Legit, you could probably convince 2x arranged marriage is good, start by saying "I have a kid and I have outright told her I'm NOT going to let her marry whoever she wants because she kept bringing home guys 10 years older than her or dudes that gave off chud vibes" and then steadily escalate from there until you say youre finding her a nice soy goodboi so she doesn't have to worry about it anymore

Anyone who automatically values somebody else's feelings above their own is a cuck.
You are supposed to respect them enough to move on with your life once they confirm they aren't interested.
You aren't supposed to make up an entire plot in your head about why you are the devil if you approach somebody with your own needs in mind.

Oh, trust me, we got enough; your average mutt will never understand that black people are, in fact, not a monolith, and that Africans and African Americans are about as similar as the Chinese and Jamaicans. They only have a superficial similarity, but most mutts won't understand this until they either have a bad experience during their literally-once-in-a-lifetime vacation outside of North America, or they just move to a European Metropolis and get to see for themselves.
