I have not heard her music, but I just read an interview with her. I don't know if she said one sentence without using the word "like" as a filler word. Some sentences had two "likes." What is your opinion on Sabrina?

Her book (1971) argues that men, not women, are actually the ones oppressed through courtship, marriage, and cultural expectations. She compares marriage to slavery, saying men give up independence to provide for women and children in exchange for affection. It’s been called misogynistic, but also brutally honest and thought-provoking.
What do you think—truth or outdated generalization?

📚 The Manipulated Man by Esther Villar (1971) (title changed to “The Tamed Man” for modern audience) remains one of the most controversial books on gender roles.

Villar argues men are not oppressors but the opposite: women use courtship, marriage, and social expectations to make men providers and protectors. Men give up freedom, risk their lives, and work for women and children in exchange for brief affection.

She compares marriage to slavery — the wedding as the day a man loses independence, entering a Sisyphean struggle enforced by culture and government. She also describes “female rivalry,” where women compete to control men, using sex and pressure to keep them loyal.

Other writers, like Chinweizu (The Anatomy of Female Power) and Warren Farrell (The Myth of Male Power), echo the claim that society is more matriarchal than acknowledged.

Condemned as misogynistic but praised as brutally honest, the book challenges us to rethink who truly holds power in relationships.

As it's "public justice" should it be monetized by the government as PPV or free to all so it's PSA deterent?

Should the convicted person be allowed reduced corporal punishment if they agree to be physically punished by their victim or victim's family?

You could clean off in a shower once per day, but you could not use toilet paper or a bidet.

I hear things like "everyone is a Christian even Richard Dawkins" or "Isaac Newton was a Christian". to some extent that's true - if you believe in Catholic morality and intellectually transforming the earth into a monoculture - that doesn't actually exist in reality - then you're a catholic. as far as I can tell if you can't have a voice in this society if you aren't a Catholic in that sense - nothing has changed since the dark ages. the greatest evil to ever exist is anything that isn't Catholic - in that sense. guess who I'm talking about. currently that would be netanyahu.

The elevator (lift) is full of people. You are standing near the buttons for each floor.

Do you ask what floors people want and push the button for them?

Or do you just push your own floor and let them push theirs?

Please vote in the poll, and explain your reasoning in an opinion... if you want.
