I have to comment that I think women who want to date go to tinder as a very last resort and don’t expect a long term relationship there. For serious relationships we tend to go to okcupid and bumble as they are wayyy less creepy apps. At least where I live tinder is known as the one night stand app.

I agree with your sentiment except for the « men unable to feel » thing. Emotions and sentiments are a fundamentally human thing and men feel too. However there is a social pressure on men to not show emotions and sentiments. We fight patriarchy so that women are less pressured into being fragile and pretty housewives but we should also fight it so that men are less pressured to be emotionless hardworking robots who have to provide for their family.

Maybe a technique like « give us the IPs that start with xxxxx » be a compromise between the two?

I disagree with the part on the ugly comments. It is very typical and blocking every single nasty comment on your appearance can be a mentally taxing effort that you can’t quite put under a « just block them off it’s easy » assertion.

Yes since the salinity transfer from the canal into the Mediterranean Sea is already enough to make species from the Red Sea colonize the east Mediterranean. The Aswan dam reduced further the amount of freshwater coming to the area. So I would guess adding more salt wouldn’t be too good for the eastern Mediterranean.

I agree. Women also code, which means we also make mistakes.

Equality means no mercy

Ever heard about the cobra effect?

A major epiphany for me was realizing that when someone is talking about their problems they don’t necessarily want / need to hear solutions.

When a solution pops don’t say it until the person stops talking or asks « what would you do ». It worked for me well to improve my listening skills.

Most homicide victims are men and men are on average stronger than women so I seriously doubt that.

Wow do we know why it affects men disproportionately compared to women?

For someone like Trump with a bruised ego, being welcomed by everyone like a religious figure can be very appealing I think.
