Wilbur was the pig. Babe is a different movie.

Same, but I do a clover and yarrow mix.

That's not even close to true. Different breeds are meant for different purposes. Humans haven't been selectively bred for different purposes over thousands of lifetimes.

Knowing the DNA makeup of your dog can help you head off certain diseases, and get a better understanding of their emotional needs.

Definitely some boxer, especially with that energy.

Hey, my kids both have them. I put them up as the night sky when they were born, so all the constellations are more or less in the right place.

Throw pepperoni on there, and it's mine, too.

Sweet babies have cranky mamas.

Yes. That is why I said "in this scenario." Apparently, I didn't say it slowly enough.

Because—and I'll say this slowly for you—in this scenario, women are the victims.

Would you demand that the victim of a mugging do their part to stop the mugger from mugging?

Okay, Sam. Lol.

Only for people with an inability to comprehend rudimentary semantics.

That doesn't mean they should be conflated.

You do know that arranged marriage and forced marriage are different things, right?

That probably just means you're more mainstream on Lemmy. I've seen a lot of ignorant, biased commenting.

My dad is arguably not the best dad in many ways, but he taught me a solid work ethic, and most importantly, called 911 when I was attacked by my husband. The best thing a dad can do is teach his daughter how she should be treated by men.

I don't know. There's an even chance my parents would have been better at picking my husband than I was.

Make something. Get somewhere with lots of quiet and trees. Bundle up in jammies and read.

Exactly. You can avoid the bear. Worst case scenario, it's not likely to hunt you down.

Men read this as if it's asking about hand-to-hand combat instead of just being stuck in a rather large forest. Which says something about them, too, that they instantly think of it as an inevitable fight.

This is what losing privilege looks like.

You're not going to intimidate me into engaging with you at the level you want me to. I have no interest in wasting time trying to chase numbers that you know perfectly well haven't been quantified.

The underlying problem is what women are trying to talk about. That they have a reason to be afraid of men, most afraid of the men who are supposed to care about them. That's a massive problem and all of this whining and pontificating on overly long posts because you don't like the analogy is nothing but distraction from the point.
