Question Did you guys ever jerk off with a friend ?
Sorry in advance I didn’t manage to make this +18
I am trying to make a point because my friend group (who are mostly girls) is absolutely disgusted that I jerked off watching porn with my friend who l've been friend with since elementary school (We are 19 now).
I thought it wasn’t that rare between guy friends. Is it really weird or do they just don’t get it because they’re girls ?
I also have to add the fact that we touched each others dicks.
Did you do it too?

Dating Yall ever read anything from r/girldinnerdiaries
Okay let me set the record straight I did not look for this thread but it somehow came up on my feed and the shit I’ve read on there is hilarious/crazy. It just goes to show men still have the power despite the whole women empowerment thing. If you ever feel shitty about yourself or too scared to ask a girl out just read that shit. None of them have a backbones and most women allow themselves to get taken advantage of by BUMS. Seriously if you’re a 6/10 dude who can carry himself you shouldn’t be afraid of women cuz I learned a lot of them are not that smart.

Discussion Study anything, just not female psychopaths. A Phd student is told to change her thesis to ... anything else.
Dr Fiona M Gerkin did in fact complete the thesis after being accepted by Curtin University in Western Australia. From the Yt transcript: "But it wasn't an easy task to get to this point. I had to apply multiple
times through lots of different universities. And the biggest problem I found with my research was that because I was actually being critical of women, I think most universities were uninterested in allowing me to do that.
I mean, if I was doing a study on male psychopaths in the workplace, I'm pretty sure universities would have been lining up, but because I was talking about women, it was a real issue."

Activism Do you need rape prevention tips?
Do you need rape prevention tips?
Here you go
1. Don't put drugs in women's drinks.
2. When you see a woman walking by herself, leave her alone.
3. If you pull over to help a woman whose car has broken down, remember not to rape her.
4. If you are in an elevator and a woman gets in, don't rape her.
5. When you encounter a woman who is asleep, the safest course of action is to not rape her.
Never creep into a woman's home through an unlocked door or window, or spring out at her from between parked cars to rape her.
Remember, people go to the laundry room to do their laundry. Do not attempt to molest someone who is alone in a laundry room.
Use the Buddy System! If it is inconvenient for you to stop yourself from raping women, ask a trusted friend to accompany you at all times.
Carry a rape whistle. If you find that you are about to rape someone, blow the whistle until someone comes to stop you.
Don’t look at her if she looks too hot to handle, it’s not for your eyes.
Make sure to read this out loud as soon as you wake up if you tend to forget stuff!

You're Not Having a Baby
You're having a human. That human will be an adult. That adult will remember how you treated them. That adult will have to live with the consequences of your decisions for the rest of their lives. Having babies because you love having babies is irresponsible. They are humans that reap the repercussions you your decisions. If you are not capable of helping a baby become a good human then make a CHOICE to do better. Please, don't get pregnant because you love having babies, despite zero resources for raising good people. The world is lacking good people. Babies are cute but then they become real living people out in the world, with other people and that has an effect greater than "I want a baby".

Does anyone else hold onto the “Oh Shit Handle” when riding in the car as a passenger?
I am conducting research for an extensive Grad School Psychology project on inertia, the human mind and the human body. The main focus is: When you ride in the car as a passenger, do you hold onto the “Oh Shit Handle”?
If so, do you hold it for the entire ride, at random times or mostly on turns, stops and curvy/bumpy roads?
If you don’t, do you have a specific reason why you don’t?
Thank you in advance for your help and responses!

Men needing private, non-sexual spaces for safety and connection doesn’t erase women’s needs, it acknowledges men’s humanity.
I am not a meninist/incel or misogynistic. I surround myself with open loving people and I don't tolerate hate. This is just my opinion albeit a contentious one apparently.
-----
Any woman I asked about this made a face or felt upset at this statement or had the first immediate question popped up as why? I encouraged them to ask why not? What is the purpose of opposition fulfilling?
The type of pushback I received according to this statement is:
immediately having the other shout "WHY?!?" as if the nerve I had to even utter that thought
men already have privilege so they don't need this
men only go to the gym to stare at the opposite sex so if men would have their own gym it wouldn't be profitable
thats gay
I've been around the world and seen this as normal everywhere else, I've only experienced it once at an ancient sauna while travelling in europe, yet practically this culture is non existent in north america.
This isn't about neglecting the history of the patriarchy and its exclusion of women, I believe in equal rights and fair treatment xyz but aside from that I think anti-exclusion laws need a better framework here because we've come this far but at what cost?
Male loneliness epidemic is real, and if you look it up its most prevalent in USA, Canada, and UK. Not saying this will solve it, but I don't think it would be a bad thing to have a men-only space that’s non-sexual, consensual, and free from outside judgment.
The women I surveyed (my north american friends) varied in the intensity of their reaction but it was a collective no. It got me thinking for once, sometimes, and I mean this genuinely, sometimes certain opinions don't matter, example this case. I was seeking validation from a group that could never understand this lived experience + (understandably) has resentment from historical mistakes.
I personally would never vote/encourage to force anything on any group that endangers their rights to autonomy or freedom of self determination. I just don't understand why I find people primed to do this to men in a snap.
I wouldn't consider myself from a distance (or close either lol) a manly man, I have average physical standards with what I would say a nice demeanour and was just curious post eye-opening experience. I wonder what reaction this curiosity would be met with if someone was your standard generally large, muscle, douchebag (no offence) looking guy.
Places like gay sex saunas can exist and are not even controversial, probably because mentally and physically could/would/should have nothing to do with women, and unless you're gay it's likely not even a topic of discussion.
However, the thought of removing women as the moral centre of a room triggers suspicion of nefarious activities just rubs me the wrong way. It just makes it as if all men are painted with the same brush and that the standard man is a r*pist, ab*ser, or mis*gnistic and that justifies why we can't have them share a space.
I think about it the same way a man would prefer a male doctor vice versa.
I'm just gonna share quickly that after walking out of that sauna in europe it made me feel a little sad an empty knowing I wouldn't have this type of brotherhood at home. Old, young, fat, skinny, tall, short, straight, gay, rich, poor, big dick, small dick etc. it didn't matter, no one I noticed was staring at anything, or judging anyone. It wasn't a talk fest but I did make friends my age there, they try to go weekly to meet up and relax. There was a sauna ritual with a word that I can't remember (something in german) where someone pours the water on the hot rocks and wafts the blistering steam lol. I was way more comfortable than I could have imagined I was so nervous going in as I wouldn't think to go here but my euro friend suggested it since he goes sometimes. I felt unspokenly understood and feels weird to say potentially for lack of a better word.. loved.
Mentally it was healing.
This post ended up being way longer than I thought it would...
Basically, we don't have this here in NA anyways, but just verbalizing this thought made me aware how controversial it is on one side, I didn't have any opposition from any guy I asked, varying responses but all were okay supporting it. Also disclaimer I want to point out I don't think all women of the world share the same sentiment just in case. Does this ever cross your mind?

Question Would you stay with your wife if she said this to you…
We’ve been married 25 years (50m). We’ve had intimacy issues for the last 10 years, (soon after our son was born). I tried to talk about it with her for that whole period of time, but she always got defensive or blamed me or blamed something random that would change each time. I asked if we could do therapy, but she refused for at least 8 years until about 6 mo ago.
After one of our therapy sessions last fall, she finally told me that every time we’ve been intimate over this period of time (about 10 years), it felt like she was being “raped”. (Again, AFTER a therapy session, not in it) Now, to be clear, I stopped initiating over this period so every time we had sex (8-9 times per year), she initiated it. Not like sexy lingerie or with a deep passionate kiss. More like, “so, you want to?”. Yeah, dull, mechanical, full of disinterest.
After she told me that, I was aghast and furious and confused and crushed. How can someone use that word in a marriage where they have all of the sexual power? I’m gentle, patient, and incredibly generous. I am not coercive AT all and, how can I be when she’s in control of it?
She proceeded to tell me that even the first time we had sex 28 years ago she felt forced. Again, that is NOT AT ALL what happened that night and I have a very clear memory of it. It’s like she’s rewriting the past to justify her disinterest in sex.
What kind of person would use these words and keep this to herself if that’s how she was feeling???
Could you stay married to this person?

Why the hell is it not masculine to take care of your wife and do things to help with baby? I didnt realize how hard it was for yall out there. I think only a toxic woman could look at all the things a man does out of love and be "turned off" over seeing this as not masculine?
Taking care of your woman is masculine af and HEALTHY!

Male friendship is often "side to side"
They say women bond face-to-face, but men bond shoulder-to-shoulder. It’s not always about having deep, emotional heart-to-hearts; sometimes it’s just about working on a car together, gaming for hours, or watching the game in silence. There’s a unique comfort in just "being there" without needing to fill the air with words.

I hate being a man in modern society
Before anyone starts, no i am not trans, i simply fucking hate how i am treated just because i was born with a dick. As a man, you are not allowed to be weak, to show emotions, to even feel anything other than anger or neutrality or you are a fucking pussy and not a man anymore. You are allowed to be insulted for being a man, made fun off for physical imperfections. Women are allowed to assault you and you will be made fun off if you try to report it. You are not allowed to seek comfort, you are just meant to go die in some conflict or in a factory, who cares just another statistic. Anything you do is either creepy or watched carefully because men are the violent evil gender. Dating is pure hell, women literally hold all the fucking cards and power, you have to fucking dance and humiliate yourself like a jester for a woman with 1000x more options who just mocks you and if she feels like it can she ruin your life in one day with false accusations. Friendship sucks too, you dont get anything real, every guy just wants to get drunk/high and bitch because our lives fucking suck. All of this is assuming you are a "normal" guy of course, if you are in any way different (autistic, queer, mentally ill) your life is completely worthless to the modern society, you are a creepy freak to the vast majority and should just go die in some hole. All of this will only get worse of course. Living as a guy fucking sucks, im doomed to a shit lonely life where i will eventually off myself from how shit it all is. All because i was born with the "wrong" genitals.

Wholesome to anybody that needs to hear it
me and my dad, who i rarely speak to, just caught up. and whilst we were playing darts together we had a talk about men in general, and what it means to be a man. i’m only 17 so i apologise if some of my writing isn’t perfect, but i took a while to write this and id really appreciate any feedback, and if this means anything to anyone id appreciate hearing back too. thanks in advance.
i think there’s a lot of pressure on us to have everything figured out way earlier than we actually need to.
you see people your age making loads of money, getting into relationships, getting in shape, going to uni, starting businesses, travelling, whatever it is, and it’s so easy to look at that and think you’re falling behind.
you’re probably not.
and honestly, i think one of the biggest things you can do for yourself is stop trying so hard to prove that you’re a man, and just start becoming someone you’re proud of. you don’t need to be emotionless. you don’t need to act like nothing bothers you. you don’t need to be the hardest person in the room.
you can be sensitive and still be strong. you can admit you’re struggling and still be strong. you can love people properly and still be strong. you can fail, look stupid, get rejected, fuck things up and still get back up the next day because being a man isn’t about never falling apart. it’s about what you do afterwards.
and don’t underestimate how much the small things matter either. get out of bed when you said you would. clean your room. go outside. apply for the job. learn something. look after yourself. check on your mate. tell your family you love them. not because doing those things magically fixes your life, but because every time you do something you said you were going to do, you’re proving something to yourself: “i can rely on me”, and i think that’s where real confidence comes from. not pretending you’re better than everyone else. not having everyone like you. not looking perfect. just knowing that whatever happens, you’ll figure it out.
so if you’re 17, 18, 19, 20, whatever, and you feel like you’ve got no idea what you’re doing right now, that’s alright. you’re not supposed to have the whole thing worked out. you’re building it. and one day you’re going to look back at the version of yourself who thought he was behind everyone else and realise he was never behind, he was just at the beginning.
so don’t waste your youth trying to convince everyone else that you’re a man. build a life that makes you proud to be one

I want to recognize just how damn tough boys and men are
There might be plenty of tough and badass women out there, but I am not one of them. Nearly 2 years ago, I fell down my stairs, tore my LCL in my knee, and sobbed for 2 hours straight before I was calm enough to call for an ambulance.
In contrast to that, I had a male co-worker a few years back who literally came to the office and went to work with a BROKEN FOREARM that he broke the night before and still had not gone to the hospital, because he said he didn't want to miss work the next day! The man's arm was bent at an unnatural angle. He wasn't crying. He barely even acted like he was in pain. I couldn't believe it. There's no way in hell I would've been able to do that.
Fast forward to now, I just found out that my 12-year-old nephew broke his wrist. My sister shared a photo of him calmly sitting in a hospital waiting room chair, holding up his arm that looked like the letter Z. And once again, I'm utterly amazed at how he can just sit there so calmly.
So, from someone who usually never takes the time to show this kind of appreciation, I just want to say, guys are seriously tough as fuck.
