Is this a hot take? Because there is a very large gender gap in how men and women are seen on a sexual level right? Men are considered masculine and virile if they have many partners and it is seen as a positive trait, whereas women are seen as sluts and easy and it is a negative trait (societally speaking, not me I don’t give a poo poo).

I [21F] wrote a fanfiction about my boyfriend [20M] and his best friend [20M] and now the friend is mad! How should I apologize?

quote:

I used to write stories but I haven't done so in a couple of years. One day I got some inspiration and wrote a story about two people I know. I wrote a story about how my boyfriend was a baby and how his friend was the father. I did it because I thought writing about father/son relationships was always cute.

I showed the story to my boyfriend and he thought it was pretty funny. Then I decided to show it to his friend. He didn't say anything, but according to my bofyriend, he got pretty mad. Apparently, he found the portrayal of him really unflattering even though I didn't mean anything bad.

I know that writing stories about people can be creepy, but my story was so cutesy and nonsensical that I didn't think anything bad could come out of it. Personally I wouldn't have been offended, but I suppose the right thing to do is to apologize even though he judges me all the time, but that is another story.

I'm not very close with his friend, but it'll awkward when he comes over to our house to hang out with my boyfriend. Is there anything I can do?

Just for reference, the plot of the story was that my boyfriend wanted to see the new Transformers movie (because he is a big fan of the series for some reason), his friend/father wouldn't let him go, he cries, and then they make up.

tl;dr Wrote a story about my boyfriend and his friend, the friend got mad, and now I want to apolgize

It is extremely refreshing that this person is just asking how to make it right out the gate instead of looking to be told that actually it's fine and the friend is wrong to be mad.

AITA for my birthday gift to my wife?

My wife and I are tight on money right now and thus, we didn't have anything in the budget for my wife's birthday gift. Instead, I sent her to her friends house for a few hours and my kids and I did all the household chores. When she got home, we showed the clean house off to her and told her it was her birthday gift. She said thank you but I could tell she was upset. I pressed her a bit and accused me of seeing her as a maid because I think she should be grateful for something she thinks the kids and I should be doing regularly. I tried to explain that we were just trying to be nice and make things easier for her, and she just kept saying "this is exactly the problem" until she told me to just stop talking about it. AITA?

this reminds me of when my dad got my mom a vacuum cleaner for her birthday. being a lawyer by profession, she was not impressed

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.

My shower has a tendency to sometimes make a loud high-pitched whining noise that's really annoying. I could see that waking someone up, but usually it's the everything else like you mentioned. But that's one of those things you just kind of have to deal with if you have roommates, so she should either get over it, use earplugs or get her own place.

AITA for honking at someone holding up the parking lot and then shopping at the store?

quote:

Yesterday, I went to the grocery store with my boyfriend and the parking lot was 2/3 full. I turned into an aisle where I saw empty spaces in the back of the lot. There was an old man, slowly pushing his very full cart to his car. The vehicle in front of me stopped, wanting his space. I waited for about 30 seconds and then honked my horn because I couldn't go around the waiting car and there were a bunch of people stuck behind us, backing the line up into the street. Another two minutes goes by, the man isn't even half way through unloading his car. I honk again. After a full five minutes, the people waiting finally parked in the space. I pulled up and parked in one of the empty spaces literally five car spaces behind.

The people we honked at came up to my window and started screaming at me for being rude and said that I had no right to pressure them into parking somewhere else. I said that it was rude for them to wait for a space when they were backing up the whole lot into the street for five minutes. I was called a bunch of names, and I just took it.

My boyfriend and I waited for a few minutes as they went into the store and we then started walking over. The angry people started yelling about how we were following them into the store and that they were feeling threatened and that we should leave. We take a cart and intentionally try to get away from these people. About 15 minutes later, we end up in the same area and I end up needing to grab something in their general vicinity where they are just chatting. I wait for a few minutes, and I realize they aren't moving. So I went up, grabbed the item, and turned around to leave.

One of the people got in my face.

"Oh, you just HAPPEN to need potatoes? And you just HAPPEN to need THESE potatoes?"

"Yes, I just happen to need a staple of a generic American diet."

"I think you're trying to threaten us. You've been following us around the whole store."

"Please get away from me."

"Oh, get away from me! I bet you didn't think about that when you were honking at us! You need to APOLOGIZE to us for being a racist BITCH."

"Yeah, I'm never apologizing to you."

"You just want to control EVERYTHING we do, don't you?"

As I started walking away, tons of people were staring at us. A random bystander said that I was completely in the wrong for not apologizing and for honking in the first place. I know for sure I never name called or insulted the people with the exception of saying that their actions were rude, so I don't know where the racist accusation came from. But now I'm not sure if I'm the rear end in a top hat for honking the horn and also for not leaving when they told me to.

Mom and her husband moved to California from Canada when he was 13 and he chose to stay in Canada with his dad. I can certainly see why mom would be hurt by what he said, but it's not entirely without merit either, especially from a kid's point of view. Fortunately she came to her senses about the whole thing because withholding his birthday present would've sent a real bad message.

The male/female split with the world sex map is that if you go into a woman’s apartment and see her sex map and there’s a pin in Cambodia, you assume, “oh, she went with her partner” or “oh, she hooked up with somebody at a hostel” while if it’s a man and there’s a pin in Cambodia you leave immediately

More like every time the woman happens to be the lovely person that people devil’s advocate for, someone comes in to go OMG WOMEN CAN BE lovely TOO. Yes, we know. The person you’re replying to didn’t suggest otherwise.

It’s actually getting sort of annoying because literally the only ones bringing up gender are the “men aren’t always the bad guyssss” brigade defending themselves against no one.

The force that’s driving the thread’s tendency to basically write fan fiction that makes the guy the bad one (“oh, this sounds bad, but I bet he did X thing that means he’s actually the bad one”) isn’t some kind of misandrist shadow council, it’s just regular-rear end toxic masculinity meeting a just-world ideology. When something bad happens to a man people look for a way he deserves it by not being a real powerful virile hella straight man’s man and it’s fairly tiresome.
