Unlikely, most newgrounders are fat asses, though WaterShake was very underweight, not sure I'd call him anorexic, however. Anyway good luck on your recovery -- anorexia is a terrible condition and I wish you the best. Also, you're still very thin and have no reason to preoccupy over your weight -- who cares what the people at school say?

What does that even mean? -- all I see is a sequence of letters and spaces. Who am I to extrapolate meaning and irony from your statement? When you think about it, if I tried to meaning from anything you wrote, I'd be a spider giant spider spinning an increasingly more complex web of self-delusion. Words are incapable of expressing anything anyway, so new super words must be created that completely transcend the limits of language and convey absolute truth. But all I can really do is accept things and expel all materials. See our lives are dictated by dopamine and I need rid all fallacy and embrace the genuine. That's my philosophy anyway -- shunning all subjectivity and becoming the world [metaphor].

Response to: Tell me. What is exactly anger? Posted January 27th, 2012 in General

Though the OP is a moron and is doing a terrible job presenting her case, I actually agree with what she is saying. Fear as an emotion in our lives is useless and detrimental. Instead of getting frightened by a stimulus, it's better to think rationally and respond to that stimulus in a reasonable way. Fear leads to irrational behavior -- maintaining clarity of mind and not allowing oneself to be overcome with emotion leads to rational behavior.

It takes 2 of my friends, a cleared classroom with 4 teachers and a 2 day suspension to keep me from getting at him.

I almost broke a window in the stairway too because of how hard I punched it. My friends that kept me off him told me to cool down.

Don't worry about it - the objective shouldn't have been to actually hurt him; it should have been to show him that you're not afraid of him and that you're not going to tolerate his threats. I think he knows not to be an overprotective creep around you any longer, so good work, champ.

If you get the chance, tell him some around the lines of: I'll talk to whoever the hell I want. And if you have a problem with it because you're an overprotective ass, stop being a fucking pussy hiding behind threats and hair pulling and actually fight me. I'd love to knock the shit out of you.

Kid sounds like a wuss with an ego problem and insecurity issues, that should effectively scare him from threatening you ever again.

Response to: Overprotective Douches Posted January 27th, 2012 in General

Can't stand people like that, he's so insecure with with himself that the slightest indication that his girl likes another guy (even just platonically) fills him with jealously and rage. Maybe it has to do with his miniature dick or something...

I personally would just tell him to fuck off and stop being an overprotective creep. I don't look for fights, but if he needs to fight me to convince that his pathetic jealously is justified and he's not a complete dirt bag, he can fight me.

In my experience many do. And I could point to people like Tucker Max, some scumbag who made a career out of demeaning women yet has a loyal following of female groupies, as an example. Like I said before I didn't come up with the stud/slut double standard, I'm just offering up theories, so I do see it as a difference of opinion.

I don't think a large percentage of women would actually date Tucker Max even if they are on some level attracted to him. Most women would say that they wouldn't date a man who would cheat on them and treat them like shit. Women want faithful partners that are good to them, just like men. This is why I contested theory - but I will concede on some level women are attracted to the "bad boy alpha male" type, which may have an origin in evolutionary history. But the general statement that women want douch-bags isn't supported by much empirical evidence - the vast majority, if not all women, would say that they would prefer men who would treat them with respect.


By it's dictionary definition, sure. But that upsets you? You find that insulting or demeaning to either gender? Get offended much?

I find the idea of men holding women to a higher standard to be a harmful double standard and repressive to women. I wasn't personally offended, but I read the post to mean that you find this mentality acceptable, which bothered me. If you were just observing a phenomenon without expressing your personal beliefs on the matter, as you claim, then I have no problem with what you said.


Disagree with what mentality? That loose women should be looked down upon? I absolutely disagree with that mentality. But I don't see anything wrong with being a sexually promiscuous male either.

I took it to mean that you agreed with the mentality that men should hold women to a higher moral standard - I'm glad this is not the case.


Dude, the point was that they hold themselves to a higher moral standard already. Not that men should demand it from them.

I can see how you meant that, but writing "we expect more from women" implied that men hold and (as I took it to mean and was bothered by) should hold women to a higher standard.


How was I trying to justify anything?

You never clarified that you believed that these double standards are wrong, so I took it to mean that you agreed with them. Now I know that you were only making an observation, not justifying it.

Rationalizing sure, I was offering up a theory that I derived from a nature documentary. It's not a zealously held conviction, it's just a thought. People are just hairless apes and sometimes it can be enlightening to keep that in mind. I get it that you disagree with me, but I'd really appreciate it if you calmed down on calling me sexist and a bigot over it. Is what I've said really enough to warrant being labeled a sexist, or is this just a simple I disagree with you and that makes you a ______ tactit.

I understand now that you are not a sexist or a bigot. Sorry I misunderstood.

HIV can have quite a long incubation period before any symptoms of it actually show up.

Yeah, it most likely would take over a year for rash like symptoms to appear. But I doubt it's actually hiv - but that or hepatitis is a possibility if you have any past experiences with unprotected sex, even if it was years ago. Are you experiencing any pain, any short fevers, loss of appetite? If you have any of these symptoms, contact a doctor immediately.

Most likely, she's just going to get creeped out and will later make fun of you to all her friends. Then, as you continue to bother her, she'll tell her friends that you're stalking her and your highschool reputation will suffer. Gotta admit, though, doing what you plan to do takes guts.

Response to: Is college really that hard? Posted January 19th, 2012 in General

Depends on the college you attend and the major you choose, i.e., Harvard is tougher than community; engineering is quite a bit more demanding than journalism. But if you're smart and have a good work ethic, you should do fine. My sister's at an elite liberal art's college and told me that for her level 300 Chinese final, people were studying 8 hours straight. She didn't study at all and scored within a point or two of a hundred I believe - but she's a genius; don't expect that to work for you.

I gave logical refutation to your invalid argument. Don't make it out like it's just a difference of opinion - you are wrong. Women do not look for promiscuous men, so your evolutionary argument fails.


The higher standard argument was a completely separate explanation than the natural selection argument. Don't call me a fucking sexist. I'm not a sexist. I like how you got so outraged at me over such tame comments. White Knighting? Or just a little frustrated?

"Men are pigs, we expect better of women."
Tell me how this line is not sexist.

And, looking at your profile, I see that you're male, so aren't you implying that you are one of the men you described, as you wrote "we" without specifying that you disagree with this collective male mentality?

Holding women to a higher moral standard is sexist and repressive. Sexism bothers me. Justifying sexism (or any form of bigotry or ignorance for that matter) by accepting it as a fact of life bothers me even more. The fact that a inequity exists doesn't mean that it should exist. Instead resigning to a known inequity, challenge it. Rationalizing sexism with evolutionary explanations without the criticizing the damaging status quo only perpetuates sexist beliefs.

Also, don't mistake hostility in an anonymous forum post with actual anger. Nothing you wrote really disturbed me - however, I was annoyed and bored just enough to write this out.

This makes little sense. Women do not look for promiscuous men; if you researched the ideal characteristically for a romantic partner, fidelity will invariably come up as one of the top choices among both genders. Men do not look for fidelity in a partner more than women do.

I've also argued IRL that it's not so much a double standard as a higher standard. Men are pigs, we expect better of women.

So it's okay to be a hypocritical asshole if you justify it by saying you're holding women to a higher standard? Why not try to be a decent person and not excuse your sexist beliefs with irrelevant and unsubstantiated evolutionary rationalizations?
