Girls: Are you tomboyish, and what kind of tomboyish girl are you?

Guys: Do you like tomboyish girls, and what kind of tomboyish girls are your favorite?

As society has become more socially progressive, it’s hard to believe that dating outside one’s race was once a major taboo. Most people I know have had at least one interracial relationship in their life, even if it didn’t end up working out. How about you?

This article argued that men’s lack of emotional support systems leads to increased burdens on women in relationships—coining the term “mankeeping” to describe the emotional labor women perform in supporting their male partners - The Hidden Costs of Men's Social Isolation: When men suffer social isolation, women may pay the price, too - www.scientificamerican.com/.../


I chose Option 2 – Men’s struggles shouldn’t be framed through the lens of how they affect women. That’s not empathy—that’s ego wrapped in victimhood.
This article tries to sound supportive of men but ultimately centers women as the ones who suffer because of men’s loneliness, as if men being emotionally isolated is a burden on them. Imagine framing women’s depression or trauma by saying, “Well, men suffer when women are emotionally distant.” It would be considered sexist and dismissive—and rightly so.
Emotional labor exists in both directions. If a woman is exhausted from carrying the emotional weight in a relationship, that’s a valid issue. But that doesn’t mean men’s pain is hers to fix—or that his isolation is somehow her responsibility. That kind of framing only deepens the gender divide and discourages men from seeking help.
If we actually want to support men, we need to talk to them, not about how their pain makes things harder for everyone else.

i can't figure out how it is women of a certain type (not that hot) think I'm super hot, worth dropping their panties for on the first date, and then other women seem totally aloof

I’ve been talking to this girl on tinder for 2 weeks. We’ve been talking sexual and she sends me nudes/videos of her touching herself every single night. Now she’s telling me on our first date we I can’t kiss her because she’s “not easy”.

Is she just teasing and wasting my time?

I’m not financially ready for a long term relationship, but I worry someone else might get to her before me. She’s in her last year of school.

Girls, would your friends tease you for having a very short boyfriend?

Guys, what would your friends say if you had extremely tall girlfriend?
