The verdict is in!


I say name the 1%ers. I don't care if it's "not technically feasible" or if it "breaches privacy", these people must be forced to defend their answer.

Something like 4% of general public survey respondents will reliably answer whatever they think is the opposite of what most people will say, or deliberately pick the dumbest response, just for fun. It's a well studied and repeatable effect. So within this margin of error we can say that literally 100% of people agree that Alice's family is loving nuts

Why is OP being sexually harassing and the other adult with her underwear constantly out around OP even though she said it makes her uncomfortable is not?

Having a small part of your undergarments exposed on a non-sexual part of your body is not harassing anyone. Would you call it harassment if the exchange student had her bra straps visible? It's essentially the same thing. Look away if it bothers you.

Bothering someone else about the way they wear their undergarments and trying to make them change it is certainly harassment.

So wait, your position here is that the exchange student being sexually harassed when the host mom gently asked her to keep her underwear in her pants?

Here we go again.
AITA for talking to my soon to be ex-SIL?

quote:

My brother & his wife are in the process of getting divorced (she left him). Me, my husband and our two kids have always been close to my brother & his wife. My SIL initially put some distance between herself & our family. After a little while we started talking occasionally, mainly just how each other & our kids were doing etc.

That’s when I found out that my brother was tracking all of her phone calls via logging into their cell phone account which was in his name. He called me & something seemed off about my brother, he was being short & just kept asking so what did you do today, what else happened? Finally I said oh and SIL called me today. He then proceeded to tell me in a very mean tone “you’re lucky you mentioned it to me or you would be on the list”. For clarification “the list” is his list of people who he feels have betrayed him & who he no longer talks to. I tried to diffuse the situation & kind of laugh it off. My brother said I’m not f**king kidding, I don’t want you talking to her anymore. I told him he that he was being unreasonable & ended the phone call.

A few days later I was unexpectedly diagnosed with a brain tumor. I was told I needed to have brain surgery. I asked my husband to be the one to tell our family as I couldn’t handle it. He started making the phone calls & one of those calls was to my soon to be ex-SIL. The next day my brother called me irate & wanted to know why my husband had called her. I told him that the call was to tell her about my brain tumor & upcoming surgery. My brother then said “it doesn’t take 26 minutes to tell someone you have a brain tumor”. My brother then told me that I am dead to him. He blocked my # & blocked me from all social media.

Since then I have had my surgery & am doing well. He never reached out before or after the surgery. My daughter (14) texted him on his birthday to wish him a happy birthday, he never responded to her. This hurt my daughter. It hurts me that he is taking it out on my kids. My dad keeps telling me that my brother is going through a lot right now and “ he will get over it soon”. I told my dad it’s not about my brother getting over it since I did nothing wrong. I feel my brother is in the wrong for the way he is treating me and my kids during a very hard time in my life.

AITA

**Edit: I did tell my SIL that he was tracking her calls. She now has a new phone number and her own cell phone plan.**

Honestly I wondered if the OP was hallucinating the weird behavior due to the tumor. But presumably the blocking is real (assuming the BIL exists at all).

Hope she gathers evidence about his behaviour, including him cyberstalking her. I'm sure it would go over well in court. People like OP's dickfuck brother just astound me for their complete lack of self-awareness. I don't even want to imagine what being married to that fuckwit must've been like.

it's regular harassment if you bother someone about how they're wearing their underwear. ("gently" is your insertion).

it's sexual harassment when the lady starts pulling her own thong up expressly so she can comment on it and talk to the teenager about her own underwear and how she should be wearing it.

what makes the difference between harassment and not is: are you just minding your own business doing something that someone else is bothered by, or are you forcing someone else to engage with you when they don't want to?

Thankee kindly.
Remember that one weird post about the pomegranate theory on TikTok? Well:

My bf [31M] has been ranting about orange peel theory for days, I [25F] am getting uncomfortable and want him to stop

The actual post isn't that interesting, but let's get to the real question:

quote:

wtf is this orange peel poo poo? I’m so confused

quote:

I had to look it up. It's a bullshit test where you hand your partner an orange, and if they "peel it without being asked" (as opposed to going... "why did you just hand me an orange?!"), then they're "a keeper." Because they want to do things for you without being asked, like peeling oranges.

It's dumber than that, the boyfriend is complaining about the orange peel theory/test, but the OP has never done it or even thought about it and has no idea why he keeps bringing it up.
