re: Free Press: How girls are being taught to hate men
Posted by Odysseus32 on 3/1/26 at 4:10 pm to Hot Carl

Young men just have to show up in a way that dispels everything she’s been taught. At the end of the day, women act on their feelings in any given moment, no matter how much “knowledge” is in their head. I’ve learned a lot about current dating dynamics and culture, not for myself, but my kids. And it’s terrifying.
Genuine question. Do you see how insulting this is?

Men certainly don’t make it any easier on themselves.
And also, there’s an absurd amount of woman hating here. You would think half of this board wants a husband.

I'm not talking shite with you here. I know you're probably too dumb to realize it, but I'm telling you that you're actually stupid. And that you should maybe try to remedy that.

re: A woman cared for an aging bumble bee for 12 days

No, that's not what I'm doing. I'm also not saying they don't share similar traits.
Trust doesn't explicitly mean that a creature is cognitively understanding that they trust in the way we trust. Trust to an insect means they understand that something is not going to hurt them. In the same way it trusts a rock to be steady. It trusted that the giant wasn't going to hurt her and she didn't need to assume that she was in danger. Whether that occurrence is conscious or subconscious is irrelevant. It's still trust.
There was nothing about that video that implied the woman was anthropomorphising or even elevating the bee to have emotions beyond her capability.
The real issue, and honestly this is a real big issue, is that there are some in this thread feel that she was getting teary eyed because she has ascribed some false consciousness to the bee. She isn't. She is crying because the idea of any life being cast away, even if that's the nature of the species, evokes the idea of herself being in that same position of being cast away with nobody to save her, and it makes her sad. It makes her think about her own mortality, and the mortality of the people she loves, and so she takes action, even if the bee can't fully appreciate what's happening, she can. It's called empathy.

.....Animals trust. Not a human exclusive trait.

Emotionally anthropomorphising a bumblebee and giving it human traits?
She is not anthropomorphising a bumblebee. She is seeing it for what it is and allowing it to have a low stress final 2 weeks of her life. In no way did she dress the bumblebee up, or treat it like a child. She made an enclosure for it, fed it sugar water, and allowed it to climb on her.
The issue is that you can't discern between the two. There's a whole range of emotions between stoic and naive, and you seem to be unable to experience them.
I'd say maybe you're the one who shouldn't be able to vote.

They're literally captured.
All the man has to do is give some offhand justification and they take it. Hook, line, sinker.
They're dug in too deep. The time too admit they were wrong has passed, they can't do anything about it, and it's killing them. Any "yeah, but" makes them feel better.
They're weak people.

Yeah if youre someone that gets that endorphin rush and it gives you that mental and general well being effect, absolutely. I think that is highly genetic though. I have never once got that
I was about to call BS on this and then looked it up. I didn't know that it was genetics, I was sure it was just finding the sweet spot of the right HR and duration.
Learned something new.

Im not super familiar with zones but it seems to imply that zone 2 is distance running/jogging. I dont think this type of exercise is worth the wear and tear for anything other than competing in distance running
Also those sweet sweet endorphins. When they hit you literally feel at peace.
