Check yourself for any sour patterns that turn up in your romantic life. We have a choice in dating and set the bar for how what sort of behavior we tolerate and for how long. So make sure a lack of self-love and worth doesn’t end up biting you in the butt.
The SAT was created by a noted racist and anti-immigrant activist who had previously written difficult, biased exams intended to prevent immigrants from becoming citizens. Happy test day!!

I lose followers every time I say “trans women are women”
so I’m gonna keep saying it until I weed out all ya
immediately lost two followers
I’d rather see my follower count drop than have anyone following who can’t handle the notion that TRANS WOMEN ARE WOMEN.
When the titles of popular porn videos are the same as titles of articles describing vicious rapes/murders/kidnappings you know porn is irredeemably evil

Something to think about:
The Earth is 4.6 billion years old. Let’s scale that to 46 years.

All men benefit from women’s reinforced fear of being hurt for saying no.
read it again and again
Understand that this applies even to non-sexual situations. Women are more likely to be asked for favors from coworkers. Regular “can you file this for me” / “can you cover my shift” / “can you finish up this paperwork” workplace favors. Men are less likely to return those favors. Women are more likely to be seen as “difficult to work with” if they refuse to do favors when requested. Being viewed as ungenerous has negative social and professional consequences.
So yes, even gay men benefit. All men benefit from women’s reinforced fear of being hurt, not just physically, but also socially and professionally, for saying no to anything at all.
