Uno!!!
I feel like there is a difference between finding someone attractive enough to entertain the idea of having sex with them and starting/maintaining a friendship for the sole purpose of keeping open the possibility of sex in the future when they can exploit a vulnerability. If a friend treats everyone of his/her friends roughly equal, I see no harm. However, „friends“ that bend over backwards, get overly touchy and so on with the people in a committed relationship they wanna bang and not with people they don’t, I see a problem. Worst case yet that i encountered was a „friend“ that mimicked mannerisms, hobbies and appearances of the partner that „stood in his way“. That’s just plain creepy.
I can say I have been with girls whose friends were guys all wanted to fuck em. I never held against em. Was honest about it with em, but I always put the trust in them to do the right thing.
I’ve learned in life there’s a little truth to everything, and a lot of bullshit with a lot of things. You’ll have horrible women, and horrible men. You’ll have folks so obviously blind to what’s in front of em, they won’t know until their bumping uglies with eachother. You just gotta roll with it.
It’s always nice when toxic people pair up. They can just be toxic to each other and leave the rest of us out of it.
“Do you wanna fuck her?”
“How many times do I have to explain what pansexuality is? I wanna fuck everyone, everywhere, alll the time!”
Having only male friends is a red flag.
irl I’m a woman and I only have male friends… Okay I have ONE Female friend and I rarely see her anymore. I’m not avoiding her or anything, our paths just drifted apart.
It’s only a red flag every 28 days.
All other days they are flying a black flag.
Yarrr
…dude…
What about having no friends at all?
Yes
i learned a while ago from dr who, there is something called omnisexual which is above pansexaul(which is basically fuck anyhting)
Yeah but I’m not into inanimate objects.
My rules are:
-
It has to be alive
-
It has to give consent
Although if a vampire showed up and consented to sex, I might bend rule 1.
Really, Rule 2 should be enough. Inanimate objects can’t give consent.
Tell that to a dildo
Yours can talk?
…yours can’t?
It’s future proofing for when fuckable robots are a thing.
Eh, I’ll worry about that if and when we get to that point. Who knows, maybe they turn out really fuckable.
The Hierarchies by Rob Anderson explores this concept trough the eyes of a sex robot. Just in case you ever wondered what a word with realy fuckable robots would look like.

And that’s why I just cut contact with all people in my life every time I get a partner, to be respectful. Haven’t talked to my grandpa in years but what can you do?
This is why all my friends are asexual eunuchs.
Watch out, they’ll connive on you
Perhaps…
But then again, they know things.
They do like to congregate, I make sure to spray them with water when they do.
I laughed but then I thought about my hubby’s friends.
Ew that’s nasty 🤢
She’s right, though. The only friend I ever had who wasn’t creepy with my girlfriends behind my back was gay.
Get better friends!
Oh for sure. Way ahead of you, ditched those guys years ago. Now I just have no friends!
No bad friends! Focus on the upsides
I feel like there’s a difference between the two but judging by this comment section lemmy doesn’t do nuance.
What nuance? The misogyny??
ಠᴗಠ
If federated platforms were people archetypes, Lemmy is Bernie Bros with mellowed rhetoric that think they’re beyond sexism 🤷
Haven’t had a sexual urge since 1997!
Lol what??
These comments are really weird.
Eh, posts like this give people a chance to reflect on their own relationships, and bounce their thoughts off of the internet in a relatively safe space. Half of what you are hearing is folks imprinting on the situation. Things are gonna get a little weird.
Exactly which nuance is important in this context?
the two nuances in her post image
as shitty a person as the comment guy is he’s probably right in that most if not all of her friends do want to fuck her
just ready anything about the shit pretty women have to put up with
Is she not also right that most of his male friends also want to?
What’s nuanced about his controlling behaviour?
nothing is nuanced about his behavior, for sure it is shit and controlling
what’s nuanced is how male relationships behave in modern western cultures(US specifically) and pointing out how a pretty woman is going to have a real hard time finding genuine male friendships
and snark aside most his friends are probably not interested in fucking him as only about 1/5th are openly gay
Even if you’re right that all men hit on her, he’s wrong that that means he’s the only man she can be friends with. Period. There’s no nuance to that, it’s just controlling. He can control her or he can love her, but he can’t control and love her.
Pretty women develop the skills to keep drooling men at arms length early on. The mistake is thinking that she hasn’t been picking and choosing so far and in thinking that control is the right response to the possibility of her choosing someone else. Either she leaves or she is at the very least emotionally abused, there’s no third option with a controlling man.
you keep trying to frame it like I don’t think he’s controlling or that I support his conclusion
as to pretty women developing skills all you got to do is read a bit on the internet or hell female biographies for that matter to see how bullshit that is
just because you develop tools to cope and defend yourself doesn’t mean it doesn’t fuck you up, some do ok but plenty don’t
so yea it’s gonna be really really really hard for a pretty woman to have honest male friendships, that’s the nuance, not the turd boyfriend you keep trying to focus this on
No, no, no, I didn’t say it was easy for her, I just think you completely lack nuance, balance, credibility and fairness when you excuse a position that pretty women can’t be trusted around men unattended. That’s not nuanced, it’s misogynistic.
There’s no nuance to “pretty girlfriend can’t be trusted to spend time unattended with other men”, that’s not nuanced, it’s blanket, it’s controlling, it’s relationship destroying, it’s toxic and it’s misogynistic.
I’m NOT arguing that it won’t sometimes be hard for her to fend off men who aren’t good at respecting women’s boundaries.
I AM arguing that you utterly LACK nuance when you talk like pretty women can’t have platonic friendships with men. It’s untrue. Not all men are rapists. Not all women cheat. You’re making a gross generalisation and it’s nasty and not at all nuanced.
If hypothetically you spent all your relationship talking to your girlfriend like she’s going to cheat on you, I think you would push her to live up to your expectations. After all, if she’s already done the punishment of hearing you lecture her about how she/women can’t be trusted around men, and you’re already giving her a hard time about keeping male friends, and you’re already forbidding male friendships she holds independently, and you’re already breaking up her preexisting friendship groups making it hard for her to plan/maintain a social life, and you’re already having the arguments about her unfaithfulness when she hasn’t cheated yet, she may as well cheat because she is already living the punishment and the destroyed trust. But in this scenario, it was you that destroyed it all on your own.
You keep pushing this attitude to women as nuance, but it’s like arguing that there’s nuance in “I permanently grounded my teen children all their lives, to stop them being drawn into taking drugs by their friends”. I mean, sure, ground them if they did drugs, but temporarily, because you can’t be the police of someone else’s entire social life, they’re going to escape that toxicity or you’re going to ruin their life. You can’t ground them as a permanent preventative measure, there’s no nuance to that, none at all, even though peer pressure is both real and powerful.
I completely reject your assertion that you’re being nuanced by claiming that because some pretty women and some men can’t be trusted, there’s some reasonableness or counterbalance in the scenario, and I reject your claim of nuance wholeheartedly when you talk like platonic relationships between men and women are the exception instead of the rule. Very very wrong indeed. Like excruciatingly wrong. Statistically way out. Most male/female relationships are platonic. Most pretty women are not sleeping around and most pretty women can be trusted, even around men in your absence. There’s no nuance to saying otherwise. There’s no nuance to using the existence of male rapists and unfaithful women to justify toxic and controlling behaviour. There’s no nuance to talking like petty women are inevitably going to sleep around. Stop using the word nuance to describe toxic misogynistic overgeneralisations.
His friends aren’t his friends because they want to fuck his girlfriend. They were his friends before he had a girlfriend.
Her guy friends are only friends with her because they want to fuck her.
Those are completely different things in this small window of context.
Do you have any idea how many women friends I have for the sake of being friends? No I’m not fucking gay.
6? ish?
Err let’s see…idk how many I can truly count as friends anymore as I have been rather isolated lately. But one is a co-worker that is just nice, so of course we are friends. One is someone who I’m friends with because of god knows why…she is kind of a bully, but oh well. Two are childhood friends. Screw it, I don’t really know.
Too many to count then? Me too buddy, me too.
Her guy friends are only friends with her because they want to fuck her.
That’s not nuance, that’s literally the toxic masculinity the post is talking about.
Anyone can be friends. Assuming anything less is unnecessarily divisive.
The assumption the boyfriend is making - the same assumption you’re making - is just mysogyny.
In my experience it’s easy to tell when a guy is only being friendly with a girl because he wants to fuck her and when he’s genuinely bring her friend.
It’s not misogyny to think other men would try to fuck your girlfriend. Especially if she remains in contact with someone who is only her friend because he’s trying to fuck her.
Her guy friends are only friends with her because they want to fuck her.
It’s not misogyny to think other men would try to fuck your girlfriend.
Even if you can be correct in a given individual assessment within the context of your own life, you made a broad, unconditional statement where you intrinsically assumed the guy you’ve never met is correct in his assumptions about friendships you have no knowledge of.
It’s not mysogyny to be wary of the intentions of other men. It’s mysogyny to assume all intergender friendships are exclusively sexual. For all you know, the boyfriend in the OP is just deeply insecure.
Sure, but this small window of context also still indicates that “he”:
- Doesn’t trust her to not cheat
- Want’s to control who she can be around
Which sounds pretty toxic imho. Given that, if she wants to respond to toxicity with trolling, it certainly is pretty funny. Which seems to be the main point of the post, and the added nuance doesn’t really undermine that.
For Nuance’s sake, it is important to note that not everybody makes every decision with perfect rationality and clarity, nor is everyone always completely and totally aware of the intentions of others that surround them.
Obviously, requesting that someone abandon their friends for the sake of a relationship is a piss take, but communication and building trust in the relationship can solve that.
The correct answer here is not that the relationship end because of the guys insecurity, but rather that both sides work on addressing his fundamental insecurity in the relationship and both sides keep all of their friends.
If the guy chooses not to work on his insecurity and double down on it, then you can justify ending the relationship because of this. But you should at least give it the college try first, right?
But you should at least give it the college try first, right?
Frankly, I don’t have enough information to know if this is the case. It’s certainly possible that this is a relationship well worth saving, and that the overall net benefit is worth the toxicity brought on by his insecurities. The fact that she can joke about it certainly might indicate that the relationship is a safe and comfortable space for both of them despite his controlling behavior.
It’s also hypothetically possible that she is exacerbating his insecurities by being overly flirtatious (or even flat out cheating on him) with her friends. In which case he might want to end it, as being in that situation will only reinforce his insecurities in his next relationship. (Hell, it’s possible he is cheating, and that guilty conscience is making him project his infidelities onto her.)
It’s also possible that she is not even in a relationship, and posted this simply as a joke she thought was funny.
So all things considered, the information provided only gives me enough to confidently say that trolling toxicity is pretty funny.
As far as the “correct answer here” and the value of giving it “the old college try”, that’s more between her, the hypothetical him, and maybe a therapist, and their friends, and innumerable other factors I’m not really qualified to speak on.
I don’t see it that way at all. He can trust her while not trusting the people she associates with.
I’ve had this issue with multiple girlfriends (who all ended up with one of the guys I warned them about). It’s easy to tell when a guy is only being friendly to try to fuck a girl. Pointing that out isn’t controlling in my eyes it’s trying to be protective.
I’ll grant you he shouldn’t have said “stop hanging out with them” but the main point is there if you don’t have the knee jerk reaction to the phrasing.
I’ve had this issue with multiple girlfriends (who all ended up with one of the guys I warned them about).
It sounds like you pushed them away to me: These other dudes will have been being nice and friendly to her meanwhile you’re being controlling and untrusting of the very guys who are considerably more fun to be with whilst you’re telling her which of them definitely fancy her, so she’s in if she wants to take a punt on one of them.
I mean, you’re kind of acting like an annoying wing man for her male friends. Why not swap you out?
I don’t see it that way at all. He can trust her while not trusting the people she associates with.
Are you suggesting they would rape her?
Pointing that out isn’t controlling in my eyes it’s trying to be protective.
I’m sure they feel very protected.
But, if you trust her, there shouldn’t be a problem, right?
Or is it that you (in this hypothetical situation) don’t truly trust her, otherwise you’d trust her around people you don’t trust.
And that’s okay, just don’t pretend it’s actually trust.
I don’t trust other men to respect boundaries. If another man is only friends with my girlfriend because he wants to fuck her then he’s already the type of man I wouldn’t trust not to make unwanted moves.
She might not reciprocate but that’s not what I’m worried about in this scenario.
It’s fine, maybe even healthy, to be wary of other men. It’s also important to respect your partner’s autonomy, and to trust that with that autonomy, they will act in a manner that is healthy for the relationship (and for that trust to be reciprocated). It’s great that you are willing to protect your partner, but it’s important that you let your partner inform you when that protection is needed, instead of assuming based on your one-sided view of the person your partner is interacting with. Taking action based on that one-sided view, instead of having a discussion with your partner first, can make you come off as possessive.
If the existence of alternatives is a threat to your relationship, your relationship is on borrowed time anyway.
I mean, I completely agree that if he went about this in a non-toxic/non-controlling way, and instead clearly just wanted to protect her from legitimate threats, it would be completely different… But the funny thing about that is…
Presumably the fact that she isn’t hanging around his male friends when he is not around? Otherwise they would technically also be “her male friends”. Beyond that, he probably has more context to trust his friends.
Apples to apples would be saying they should stop hanging around his female friends, but given how he is implied to act, I would think it unlikely he has any (or at the very least they are unlikely to want to fuck him).
Though frankly, if he is worried about her male friends, then the relationship is already on shaky ground, either because he is overly possessive and controlling, or because she really is giving him reasons to feel insecure in their relationship. If it’s the former, then her trolling his toxic masculinity is very funny. If it’s the latter, then… well it’s still kinda funny, but in a more mean spirited way.
I 100% agree with this. He’s already behaving badly, and overall it’s a huge red flag of a comment.
But his male friends are presumably his friends from either prior to the relationship or with no regards to his partner. They would be betraying a friend they’re fond of to act on this attraction.
Her male friends do not care about hurting his feelings anywhere near as much, and may even have delusions of replacing him. Many of them may have become her friends directly because of their attraction to her.
I don’t believe that this inherent means that he intends to cheat on his partner with a female friends of his own, and therefore believes men are like this, to be clear. I am lucky enough to have a beautiful partner, and have close female friend who I have platonic friendships with while aware those women are very attractive. But I wholeheartedly trust myself not to act on any attraction to anyone else, which is the bare minimum of course. There are men my partner is friends with who I can tell are attracted to her, but largely I don’t care, because I wholeheartedly trust her to rebuff them too. But I’d also expect that if one of them made a move on her, she would distance herself from them.
To me, his comment means “I don’t trust you around people who find you attractive.” That means one of two things. Either he is behaving possessively and exerting authority over her, or there actually is basis in his comment. I’d assume the former, largely because personally, I’ve known more possessive men than women who would cheat but we don’t really know enough about the situation.
Overall I hate the entire post and absolutely do not believe these two people are going to have a happy relationship.
Edit: I support her in maintaining those friendships. If he truly believes she’s not trustworthy to be around those friends, and does not want to remain in a relationship if something were to happen there, he should leave her. If it’s in his head and he’s behaving possessively, she’s better for it anyway.
We all know that with boyfriends like that, if one his friends did get her, he’d be calling her names and forgiving his friend.
I had a GF try to cheat with a friend of mine once ( he declined her advances and showed me the texts). I was like, buddy, you might as well have took her up on it. I’m done with her either way. It’s on the person in the relationship to not cheat. Obviously if my friend had been harassing her it would have been a different story but she was fully open to him fucking her.
You see, when some motherfucker you don’t know wants to fuck your girl, that’s BAD! When it’s ya homies, it’s chill.
Life lesson
Women are human beings that should have autonomy to do as they please. And they’re not “yours” or anybody else’s but their own selves. (Women, feel free to correct me if I’m wrong)
How are you defining “want to fuck”? As in being attracted to? If so, I wouldn’t mind if stranger or friends are attracted to my spouse. As in actively pursuing? If so, I wouldn’t want strangers or friends doing that (unless it’s an open relationship).
I’m not trying to be an ass, I just don’t know what type of “wanting to fuck” is okay for friends but not from strangers.
Women are human beings that should have autonomy to do as they please.
This is 100% true, for anyone (obviously excepting it doesn’t infringe on others, such as murder for example), but also its okay for people to have boundaries and for you to compromise within those boundaries, assuming you want to be with the person more than you care about the boundary they have.
Now whether such a thing should be a boundary is another question, but if it’s normal to, for example, not want your partner to cheat and have that as a boundary, we can at least agree its okay for boundaries to exist at all within a relationship, and that it isn’t necessarily infringing on your autonomy as a person for your partner to have them.
There are however definitely boundaries that should be considered a red flag, and for many people this may be one of them. That’s fine, and it’s fully your choice to decide whether you accept a boundary, just as some people may only want an open relationship, and so “no ‘cheating’ of any form” would be a boundary they wouldn’t accept, despite being common.
And they’re not “yours” or anybody else’s but their own selves.
Fully agree.
not want your partner to cheat
IMO cheating is by definition something your partner does not want. Defining cheating as a certain set of actions that everyone agrees on independent of the relationship is a dead end. If you instead define cheating as “knowingly violating your partner’s boundaries” (and make sure to talk about those boundaries!), everything becomes so much easier
I feel like the bit that’s sort of being glossed over/missed is that the bf in the relationship is making his issue (my gf has friends that want to fuck her) into his gf’s issue by introducing the boundary of “you’re not allowed to have friends that want to fuck you”. That should be an unreasonable boundary for anyone (barring edge case scenarios that involve informed consent between adults) because one person is taking their internal issues and externalizing it on someone else (presumably) without consent.
And then the gf flips that wrongheadedness back onto her bf by saying “if I’m not allowed to have friends that want to fuck me, then you’re not allowed to have friends that want to fuck me either”. It’s a humorous response that illustrates the hypocrisy of the first boundary introduced by the bf, and also hints at the slippery slope nature of forbidding relationships based on uncontrollable, external criteria like “does someone want to fuck you”.
Good to see some nuance and reflection in a Lemmy comment section :)
Tbh, not all jealousy is misdirected. My ex did a ton of inappropriate-but-not-cheating things with other guys and told me that she was close to cheating on two occasions. Didn’t exactly make me feel secure in the relationship and I did tell her that I felt uncomfortable with what she was doing. She ended up actually cheating with one of these guys.
I’ve been with my wife for ~10 years now, and I never felt any bit of jealousy with her at all, ever. I can just trust her and I do.
So apparently, it’s not a me-problem here.
Also I think it has to be stated in life do your own thing. Most relationships, if you don’t breed right away are lessons about others, life and yourself. You will learn finding women is realitivly easy but over coming financial strain is a whole bit of fucking awful. You will learn that there is not much love really in this world. As you all argue about mating issues the kings are gaining territory which has nothing to do with mating. This wretched earth.
wtf are you talking about? Just learn how to talk to women, it’s not that hard and you don’t have to be rich to have sex
go touch grass
Hmm. This seems like a pretty bad case. We might have to break out the big guns and have this one touch corn and maybe even pet an animal.
You good bro?
Is this copy pasta?
It is now
Nothing personnel kid.
While you were out there having sex, I studied the blade
teleports behind you
What?
Didn’t you read? If you don’t breed right away, you’ll learn lessons. Lessons about how easy it is to find women. Very easy. There’s plenty of women everywhere. Financial struggles, however, are no fun to overcome. No real love out there. Y’all worry about mating. Kings, meanwhile, expand their reach, and not through breeding.
Wait… I think this helps. Ohhh I think he’s saying that finding women for just sex is easy when you have money like the kings who are the richest among us. But making money is hard, and while you’re struggling to make money or making babies, the kings who already have money are expanding their harems???
I dunno man, interpretation gets weird when you ignore humanity/ethics.
Oh I read it. It’s just incomprehensible alpha male™©® word vomit that has no basis in reality
UNOooooooooooo.
What happens if he says yes? Then you are trapped alone with him. Seems worse lol
You wouldn’t be alone if either party has women friends. I wouldn’t be surprised if the guy in this post had no women friends , or only had women be wanted to fuck.
Also the bisexual erasure is pretty thick here.
That’s when you double down and say he can’t have women friends because he’ll want to fuck them. Then throw a jealousy tantrum because that’s literally what he said.
Chances are, he doesn’t have any female friends, because he scared them off long time ago.
Men lusting after women is bad because women are territory that each man must protect.
Women lusting after women is good because that means larger harem for alpha man.
Men lusting after men is best, because we achieve peak masculinity and become Spartans and conquer the world.
Sparta couldn’t even conquer more than their own backyard. They’d overrun Messenia and enslaved the lot, then spent a few centuries bickering with the rest of Greece, until Persia financed them to claim hegemony. That hegemony lasted 33 years, then they bickered with Thebes for a while, took losses, never quite recovered and eventually got subjugated first by the Macedonians, then by the Romans.
Okay, but nobody ever made a movie about this, so I don’t believe you.
Based and Hollywood-pilled
Then you bail
you bail either way
But bailing after he ostracizes his friends to try and control her is funnier.
you bail either way
Yup, you just get to make the joke first :)
true
Im sorry if its misogynistic but I dont really want a woman nobody else wants to fuck.
Like… if the consensus is “Naaaaaah” theres probably a really good reason.
It’s only misogynistic if you have a different standard for men.
People are downvoting you, but there’s truth there. I assume you’re not just talking about looks, because that would be stupid and you deserve all the downvotes. However, If a woman has some major red flags that everybody except you knows about, than your statement holds. For example when you join a new friend group or you move to a new town and you think you meet a nice girl, bit everybody starts warning you te get out.
Back in the day, we used the maxim of “don’t stick your dick in crazy”. You can’t say that anymore in this time of nazis and toxic masculinity, but I think this is what OP means.
Finding someone attractive and wanting to fuck them are two distinct things.
I can appreciate someone being very fucking attractive indeed, despite not wanting to fuck them due to me not wanting to fuck people in relationships.
It’s like imagine someone really fucking sexy to you. Now imagine you have no condoms and you know they have full blown AIDS. Does that perhaps make you less willing to fuck said person? Would for me.
That comment is badly phrased, but I can appreciate at least some of the sentiment. I’ve always felt pride if other people have found my partner attractive. It appeals to my self-esteem and vanity knowing that this person who is desired by others, chose me.
The fact that you’re basing your desire on anyone else’s opinions at all means you are not based. Next.
The fact that you don’t take other people’s opinions into account for desire may suggest you lack Theory of Mind. You should get that looked into. Other people’s dispositions toward something are one of the best heuristics available for quickly learning about that thing.
Snakes and spiders? Yes. Flavours of icecream? No. If you’re treating people you might be attracted to more like snakes and spiders, that unfortunate for you.
the sooner humanity realises some things you like as an individual others don’t like, the sooner we can all start enjoying life much much more. far too many people don’t have fun because they think it’ll make them look bad, and that’s so sad
do what you want to do, be who you want to be, be proud of being weird - because we are all fucking weird - and don’t worry about what other people think… just be you and enjoy it
humanity knows this. That’s why I said heuristic. There’s not enough time to figure everything out by ourselves, that’s why we operate well as a team.
Is this a new copypasta?
That’s what I’m gunning for yeah, but it’s probably not long enough.
the consensus is often based on looks, idk if that’s a good reason
You are not sorry enough yet.
Punctuation
You want OP to ask someone to correct the grammar on their post before OP posts a screenshot somewhere else?
No. Effort, should by all means, be discouraged.
so there i was minding my own business when suddenly someone decided to become the ultimate guardian of punctuation like seriously who died and made you the king of commas and periods i mean really do you go around with a red pen in your hand just waiting to correct people is it a hobby or are you just that bored with your life let me tell you something oh mighty punctuation overlord the world is not going to end if someone forgets a comma or misplaces a semicolon i know it might be hard for you to grasp but people can actually understand sentences without perfect punctuation it’s almost like we have this amazing ability to comprehend context and meaning even when a sentence isn’t perfectly structured with all the right punctuation marks in place i mean do you think shakespeare sat around worrying about punctuation probably not he was too busy writing amazing plays and sonnets that people still love today and guess what his punctuation wasn’t always perfect either but here you are in the 21st century acting like the punctuation police as if the world will crumble if someone forgets an oxford comma oh the horror i can just see you now clutching your pearls at the sight of a misplaced apostrophe but let me ask you something oh wise one do you think people will remember you for your impeccable punctuation or for being a pedantic nuisance who couldn’t see the forest for the trees because let me tell you something the world is full of beautiful imperfect things and sometimes a sentence without perfect punctuation is just a reflection of that imperfection so next time you feel the urge to correct someone’s punctuation maybe take a deep breath and remember that life is too short to worry about such trivial things and who knows maybe you’ll find that the world is a much happier place when you’re not constantly nitpicking every little punctuation mark or maybe you’ll just find a new hobby like knitting or birdwatching anything really that doesn’t involve being a punctuation tyrant but hey that’s just my opinion i could be wrong maybe you’re just a punctuation superhero saving the world one comma at a time but somehow i doubt it so go ahead and keep being the punctuation police but don’t be surprised if people start rolling their eyes every time you open your mouth because let’s face it nobody likes a grammar nasi and yes i spelled nasi with an s just to annoy you because sometimes you just have to break the rules to make a point and maybe just maybe you’ll learn to lighten up and enjoy life without worrying about every little punctuation mark but i won’t hold my breath because let’s face it some people just love being pedantic and there’s nothing anyone can do about it so good luck with your punctuation crusade i’m sure it’s a very fulfilling way to spend your time and who knows maybe one day you’ll look back and realize that life is too short to worry about such trivial things but until then i’ll be over here writing sentences without perfect punctuation and enjoying the freedom that comes with it so goodbye oh mighty punctuation overlord may your commas always be in the right place and your semicolons never be misused but most importantly may you find something more meaningful to do with your time than policing other people’s punctuation because let’s face it the world has enough problems without you adding to them with your pedantic ways.
I looked really hard for a period in that sentence then I found it 😁
it’s there
That looks kind of funny, but ain’t nobody got time fo dat
I read it. It’s actually well worded. My brain hurts a little now because I don’t get the mental break of a comma or period until the very end.
One time a guy, I was with, was like; “all your male friends[ want to fuck you]© you should stop seeing them” … And I was like {all your male friends want fuck me too™ we should stop seeing them"¢ and that’s when I learned toxic masculinity can be funny~ when I do it®
Yur rite🤾♂️prononicitating correct like makes it much more 🦐
The message is clear, who cares?
The message is needlessly convoluted, that is why I said something. Be mad.
Let you’re Jesus live they’re life, They’re fighting the patriarchy;
(There I used an extra cup of grammar; I even made sure I used words with apostrophes for you)
It made me giggle.
