Y’all, another goon already posted a link to the comments that detail how she is a victim of of sexual assault where a group of men trapped her in a house and she had to escape out a window, and also that she views all men as a potential threat. There isn’t much point in further debating it because she obviously does have an aversion/fear around men, and for very good reasons. ON the more lighthearted shaving story, this is what I saw when I clicked the link to every shaving argument ever:  The ads could not be more perfect.

The shaving one just annoys me because I don't think it's a very reasonable request to make of someone you're not really dating and/or have never slept with. Like, in a long-term relationship, sure, discuss your preferences on that and maybe you make some concessions for your partner. But some people have sensitive skin and shaving is not sustainable if you don't enjoy perpetual discomfort. Trimming is a much more reasonable ask, except then you have to go to the effort of finding a good "personal" trimmer and then finding somewhere to store it where people won't accidentally shave their faces with it.

i don't think many requests are unreasonable at all as long as you're willing to do the same for them. they're not demands (or, well, they shouldn't be...)

That's fair, everyone's got their own preferences, I suppose if you can be polite when articulating them, no harm as long as everyone can accept "no" as an answer. And if everyone involved has some grasp of basic hygiene, in that particular situation. Here's a twist on the trope of "I was forced to make a cake/dress/seven-course meal for my friend's wedding"... WIBTA if I didn't hire our friends for our wedding (photography/videography)? quote:I will do my best to keep this brief. Bride: We just want you to sit back and enjoy our wedding! Friends: How dare you!

A friend has a side gig offering a 'two middle-aged mums in a van do your light DIY' service. She gets a couple days a week painting rooms and putting up shelves for decent pay, the little old ladies get some non-threatening cheerful banter, and nobody has to see a painter's hairy arsecrack who doesn't want to. Everybody happy.

Hey, it's me. I enjoy being the photographer at friends' weddings, gives me something to do, makes them happy, and it's an easy high-value low-cost wedding present. But I wait to be asked, after my wife (/assistant/social wrangler) has hinted that I might be up for it - in a way they can just ignore if they want someone else, or don't like my style. And we have wedding experience (that poster's right that it's not a walk in the park).

cumpantry posted:AITA for missing my FIL's funeral after my MIL booked my husband first class but me ecconomy? Yeah, pretty much. Free tickets are free tickets. While buying the bereaved a first class ticket is an rear end in a top hat move, turning down an economy ticket provided for free is also really petty and stupid and you would have flown economy if it were your money. Also, would have been entirely possible to say "Hey, I want to sit next to my wife in steerage, you, lucky stranger in 48B, can trade me for the big chair". Or try to trade cash or points for two first class flights. This was a solvable problem rendered unsolvable by lovely people, and a missed opportunity to talk poo poo on the mother-in-law to all the cousins-in-law.

As someone who has been in an incredibly similar situation, you call up the airline and downgrade seats to sit by your partner or the person next to your partner a “free” upgrade. Why would you want to be away from your partner in such an emotionally devastating time? That dude is a prick. virtualboyCOLOR fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Oct 25, 2022 |

AITA for moving out because I don’t want to help my bf out with the rent?quote:My boyfriend(26M) and I(24F) have been together for 3 years. We live in NYC and he makes over $200k/year, while I’m studying for my masters in social work and have no income. Right now I’m doing an unpaid, yearlong internship 3 days/week, as well as classes 2 days/week. It’s rare to get a paid internship in social work, plus internships are mandatory. I spend 12 hours everyday either working, studying, commuting, or in class. My only free days are on weekends so I have no time for a paid job. My mom helps me financially by paying for my metrocard and healthcare expenses, but everything else I rely on loans.
