That picture is, but lipedema is a real condition that has less to do with obesity and more to do with a combination of genetics, hormones, stress, and other factors still being sorted out. The lady in purple probably has lipedema (and maybe Cushings based on the humped back). Apparently even if a patient is obese and loses weight it's primarily lost in the upper body with little change to the lower, even with bariatric surgery.

While attempting (and failing) to find such a scholarly article I discovered he is still linked on Wikipedia's "see more" entry for "Uncanny Valley."

Wasn't freebleeding a 4chan joke that escaped into the real world?

My understanding is it's been done as a form of protest/awareness, i.e. a woman ran a race a few years ago this way where the money she raised went to menstrual supplies for women in countries that are forcibly sequestered during their period (or something similar). Other than that and the occasional art thing? "Freebleeding" is just another way for misogynists and bigots to make fun of SJWs, much like the more extreme "I'm this-kin and more queer than the rest of the queer kids" screenshots.

Preemptively, "nice meltdown."

There is a gross FNaF thing on the previous page, and much like bronies I can't stand the horrid guys who sexualize and fetishize media IPs for children. Kids can't safely search for either ffs. Why fursuits and ponies? Frankly I think it's because empty suits and animals can't say no the way a human (real or fictional) can. Because non-human/oid creatures don't have perceived consciousness the way humans do. Because these guys are the same sort of men who think they're entitled to sexual contact and emotional lifting (look at all the guys on these "cute" dates with ponies where the ponies praise them). Empty, plastic shells these sad men fill up with untreated mental issues and unspeakable memories.

For context, this refers to giving a transgender preteen hormone blockers to stop puberty from occurring, allowing them to avoid the dysphoria associated with biological changes that do not match their gender. Ideally this is done under supervision of an endocrinologist/trans specialist who knows what they're doing. It's an overall positive, but undergo hormone therapy responsibly, kids!

How does cheating stop you from being a feminist? It makes you a piece of poo poo and a bad husband but I don't think it revokes your feminist card.

quote:

Despite understanding, on some level, that what he was doing was wrong, he never conceded the hypocrisy of being out in the world preaching feminist ideals, while at the same time, taking away my right to make choices for my life and my body based on the truth. He deceived me for 15 years, so he could have everything he wanted. I believed, everyone believed, that he was one of the good guys, committed to fighting for women’s rights, committed to our marriage, and to the women he worked with. But I now see how he used his relationship with me as a shield, both during and after our marriage, so no one would question his relationships with other women or scrutinize his writing as anything other than feminist.

If he were "feminist," he could have discussed an open marriage with his ex and gotten a divorce if they couldn't agree on them being married while having sexual/emotional relationships with other other people. It would still make him a non-feminist scuzzball for how he's treated actresses though.

I think a lot of people see cheating as more of a sexual/emotional thing and think less about the deceit inherent in the affair. The betrayal is the worst part because via that lie you're removing the wronged party's ability to chose whether to remain in that relationship or not. A real feminist would never do that to their partner.

More or less yes, several hundred on the extreme low end from what I recall. I can't remember the goon's name but a couple years back they posted in A/T about taking fursuit commissions on a semi-professional level. They stressed that other than a couple outliers there was a code of making suits as costumes, period. No holes, no catering to obvious fetishists, commission rules including "we'll repair our work for you but not if it's been modified/damaged as the result of sex/kink."

I was about the age of the kids in the book when I read IT, or a bit older. This was just after the TV movie came out. I was absolutely confused by the scene because it felt out of nowhere as well as gross. I just wanted to get to the crazy fuckoff spider part because it was a cool monster but nope, horrific "ritual" that despite consciously forgetting over the years I think further screwed up my already burgeoning poor relationship skills. At least the parts where the female lead as an adult is being infantilized by her husband was presented as Bad and Wrong.

This was middle school and I openly carried this book around ("whoa I'm reading a GROWN UP BOOK") and not once did a teacher or other adult say a drat word.

Since this was posted others have shared teachers having concerns, but in my case I was known as an advanced reader so I'm sure it was this, people's ignorance of the book, and frankly I think most folks who have read IT probably try to put the scene right out of their minds because it's disturbing. IT chat also makes me realize I forgot a TON about that book. I also never read another King book after that one, so I must not had been impressed. Awkward, thought I was in the worst book thread for a minute.

What the gently caress are these letters you keep posting, I refuse to google them

Myers-Briggs Personality Test. It’s a set of 50 questions that determine the type of personality in the workplace someone has with it boiling down to 16 types. The letters are from the four scales used, like I is “introvert” or F for “feeling.” While it gives some broad idea of how someone behaves at work/in general, people end up boxing themselves into a type instead of applying the advice of said type to challenge and improve their ideas and skills. In recent years there’s more of a horoscope-like identity built around it, you’ll see it applied to fictional characters, and so on.

They don’t because for the last 20ish years the consequences for being a creep have been mostly nothing to maybe a slap on the wrist that results in landing on their feet in a new forum/dating account/career/relationship/presidency where they can continue to harass and abuse people.
