Today I Learned
What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

We found an incel in the wild, holy fuck. Just as pathetic as we had been led to believe!
Incel with a family… please explain???
Calling women females is at best weird and insensitive for example.
I got big time Ferengi vibes from that comment.
Yeah ofc females is an issue. We have the word "women" which is more specific and less loaded.
And no, tits aren't sexual by essence. No body parts are and it's all social constructs.
Plus lil kids tend to already see lots of tits since they feed on them.
Yes I am weird but I'm also right 😉
We have this neat little concept called "women" that is specific to humans and also refers to a social role.
Using "female" is - by opposition - quite dehumanizing.
First and foremost, kids spent their first few monthes suckling on tits. They kinda know what they look like. Or should breastfeeding women hide their breast from their infants? 🤣
Then sexualising parts of the human body is a social construct:
So since human breasts (and any body part by extension) aren't intrinsically sexual, there should be no issue showing them to anyone, kids included.
(Otoh I am obv not condoning any interactions with any kind of sexual intent with minors or young adults with a significant age gap)
I am but I am also right 😉
They can't find partners because MEN ARE AWFUL. Men (especially young men) are swinging so hard into fascism. Meanwhile, women are swinging the other way; or maybe standing still while the Overton window is dragged away from them. If you are looking for a man under 30, and you are not also a man under 30, you are fucked.
You might have just as well pointed at all the young fascists who can't find tradwives because they are so fucking toxic. Blaming women is arbitrary.
By your own arguments, women don't actually behave like that -- going topless in public. And you know damn well that most women don't have OF accounts. And yet we can see a massive swing in young men's behaviour all over the world recently. Is it because they are men? Is it a coincidence that they are men and behaving badly? I don't fucking know, but it's a thing that is happening, and all you have in response is an attempt to deny reality.
and you wonder how we all know you're fragile and misogynistic.
Take a look at this data.
NDP is the leftist party. CPC is the right-wing party. PCP is the far-right racist party. Look at the difference between men under 30 and women under 30. This is a real thing that is really happening. It isn't because of OF. It isn't because of being topless. It's because of a profound difference of values. Deal with it.

PS: I date men and women. Where's your insight into dating men coming from? Sitcoms?
Calm down, take your pill 🤣
Ableism.
