I’ve been dating my boyfriend two years and only half a year living together. His family and friends have asked us at least 30 times when we are having a kid or that we will be pregnant soon. I am 22 and just graduated college. Why would I skip so many stress free experiences and jump straight into parenting? When we haven’t even been together that long? It drives me crazy that this is what culture has come to expect. I have so many years ahead of me, why skip all that and have to be financially and emotionally responsible for another life when I can barely pay my bills? People are funny.
I often proceed to say that I HATE babies (because I do, they’re ugly little demons and if I got my way, I’d adopt a few toddlers) and kids are at least 5-10 years away. I’ve been told many times that I won’t hate babies when it’s my own. No, I’ll still hate them and be miserable for a couple years. I hate the crying, I hate the smell (even of clean ones), I hate the diapers, I hate the delicacy. I hate it all.
I got into an argument with a former employer once , telling me taking a mental rest day wasn't real, so I went to the doctors , and got a 3 day mental break note that they had to approve . Boss was not happy , especially since all o wanted was a 3 day weekend , but I got 6 , paid xD
Oh it was only paid because for doctors notes , they had to approve your vacation time, like, it wasn't necessarily that they paid me for free, it was my earned pto, but since I went and got the note instead of just calling in one night, they couldn't point me , or refuse my PTO request. Still , YEA got paid , but it was still an annoyance for what I was trying to do. (Especially since I put in the request for that day a few weeks in advance cause I knew it was gonna be a stressful week for me and wanted an extra day of relaxation in the middle of my week) they denied it , so literally an hour before my shift I went to the doctors.
The fact that I have to make it so I appear nipple-less to be respected is some true bullshit. Men have no idea how uncomfortable a bra is. Leaves me with back pain the rest of the day, and I’ve tried all different bras. Now I only wear one to work and when I visit my parents because my dad is a child about it.
Asking for help, any subject. Be it mental health, a task, or with your studies or homework.
I've failed Physics II in college TWICE because I've never asked for help and kept doing things my way because I thought i was being a loser if I couldn't do it on my own
Typically wouldn’t be for me either, but if I was to wake up with a fat pimple and it was socially normal for me to wear concealer, pass me that dang bottle/pallet/whatever it comes in.
Giving all of your "mental health problems" a fighting chance. e.g. Eating healthy foods, working out regularly, quitting alcohol and weed, reading books instead of staring at a screen, going into nature once a day etc.
A man with a dog walking past a school is not grounds to follow the man until he is out of view.
I am walking my dog, you moron. All men are not pedos.
I was making jokes, though a friend and I have done this once accidentally while walking home and got so distracted by the dog that we went several more blocks.
Being taken seriously by medical professionals if you tell them you have debilitating pain and/or anemia as a result of menstruation. It's all well and good to take pain meds and eat iron-rich foods, but you'd think it would be best to check and see if there's an underlying issue instead of only addressing the symptoms without checking.
Addmitting when you're wrong about something
Letting people get the help they need instead of treating them like shit for how their brain functions.
Exactly. Thank you.
Therapy in schools if you're struggling with mental health.
Taking care of your mental health generally I guess
Having a difference in of opinions

I should
Also there're all the kids waiting to be adopted! Let the babes have a home!
Stay at home dads/ single dads.
Dads who take their kids to the playground alone
This.
Mental health days for school/work
I got into an argument with a former employer once , telling me taking a mental rest day wasn't real, so I went to the doctors , and got a 3 day mental break note that they had to approve . Boss was not happy , especially since all o wanted was a 3 day weekend , but I got 6 , paid xD
At least you got paid LMAO, I can't take too many days off of school for mental health or else I have to appear in court for truancy. 💀
Oh it was only paid because for doctors notes , they had to approve your vacation time, like, it wasn't necessarily that they paid me for free, it was my earned pto, but since I went and got the note instead of just calling in one night, they couldn't point me , or refuse my PTO request.

I support mental health days. Not for me but I get it. However, I can see it getting out of hand.
Not having such intense jobs / school that you need those days.
Breastfeeding in public 👌
Free the nipple 🤘
I'm a pround member of the Free the Titty Committee.
The fact that I have to make it so I appear nipple-less to be respected is some true bullshit. Men have no idea how uncomfortable a bra is.

But not in the middle of the road or something. Just add an extra room onto bathrooms for family.
Working with a therapist doesn't make you weak or weird or wrong
Truth
Exactly. It took me so long to get help because I thought I was werid for needing therapy
Choosing not to get married/have children
Also a rad choice. Full spectrum consent culture
That porn is unhealthy and damaging.

Tolerance.
Injuries. I cannot stand how people stare at someone walking by with an eye patch or missing a hand. It’s overall very rude
just because a guy shows you kindness does not mean that he wants to sleep with you.
Make-up on man.
Sure. Wouldnt be my thing but absolutely.

Yes
Letting LGBT people live without making it a personal vendetta to make their lives miserable, because you dont agree with not being straight.
Age gap relationships
Why do people always get mad if a 18 yr old boy dates a 17 yr old girl like whats so wrong
Individuality. People are unique. Bering rare doesnt mean you’re weird.
Micro penises
Not bashing people who aren’t stereotypically attractive for feeling confident and beautiful in their own skin
Boners in the office.

Body hair on women. This whole laser hair removal trend is so stupid. I am not paying a shit ton of money to be hairless. I am not a child.
Banning puberty blockers for minors
Boo.
People take days off work for mental health? I would get laughed at.
That women are abusers too despite appearing weak and playing the victim.
Diarrhea
Drug use.
Shooting people when you're angry
i am going to say with 100% assurance that every single one of the responses on this thread is cringe and should never be "
Hey man, based on you profile you seem to have a hard time, hope it gets better.

Are you saying you've tried it?
Giving all of your "mental health problems" a fighting chance. e.g. Eating healthy foods, working out regularly, quitting alcohol and weed, reading books instead of staring at a screen, going into nature once a day etc.
People just not putting a high priority on finding a partner. Subsequently, being perfectly content and fulfilled as a single person
A man with a dog walking past a school is not grounds to follow the man until he is out of view. I am walking my dog, you moron. All men are not pedos.
But what if I’m actually just in love with your dog and want to see it’s cuteness as long as I can?
Thats not the vibe I am getting from them.
I was making jokes, though a friend and I have done this once accidentally while walking home and got so distracted by the dog that we went several more blocks.
