I used to think like this too. I was a teenager, which I guess makes this an acceptable thought for a person to have.

If you're older than 20 you need to chill out man. The world and people are more complicated than this.

>>36244
first the elderly would need to learn some respect. old people are either super nice or disrespectful entitled pieces of shit

Sometimes I wonder what you're all smoking to ask questions like this one.

At any rate, >>36246 has the only right answer.

Just wait until you get old and you will change your mind.
However, I think euthanasia should be legal for anyone, regardless of the reasons or age.

I've never ever seen or heard the word "fundies" used in this context.

I used to draw a lot when I was younger, but I never could really get to a skill level that I liked. I decided to learn Japanese instead.

>>36199
'fundamentals' though yeah more usually used as an abbreviation for fundamentalist Christians.

yeah, i'm not really an e-artist or anything but i do art shows in real life galleries. I basically never draw for fun anymore though, usually just to achieve specific goals

>>36189
aw yes i do enjoy drawing even if it can get difficult at times

>>36189
ya i do it for a living. feels good man.

I only care about whether the men (and women heh) I'm attracted to find me attractive. You know, because I want to be seen as a prospective partner.
Also agree with >>36490

Anyway I think it's most important to balance trying to be attractive to others while also appealing to yourself. I'm a reasonable weight and take conventional care of myself in terms of grooming/clothes/hair, but there are some off things that I like aesthetically. In particular I like the look of women with strong, muscular arms so I'm working on my arms a lot. Despite this I also prefer a "softer" look instead of shredded so my end goal is to just overall look very sturdy which I know won't appeal to most.

>>36490
That doesn't seem like a direct answer to me, were you responding to someone else? Because I wonder what is a good way to determine a woman is attractive.

To answer you anyway, they're actually pretty similar. Men, or maybe people in general, settle for a committed relationship with someone they mostly hate or find unattractive frequently in life. Sex and commitment are easy things to pull off: physical pleasure, and not cheating.

>men literally fetishize everything
True, but how does this change anything? Even they know that the things/people they fetishize are gross, if that's the case.
Men are usually harsh and objective because well, they think like robots, evaluate body parts separately and don't get blinded by a nice personality like woman do. I'm not saying it's a good thing, it's awful, but that also makes them a reliable "meter of attractiveness".

>>36498
like women* sorry

Because only a very small percentage of men have niche fetishes like pig fucking, just like there's women out there that would fuck anything and everything with a dick

Healthy women want to feel desirable to men, healthy men want to feel desirable to women, it's natural to want to be attractive to the vast majority of the other gender, deal with it

How fluent are you in Japanese? I’ve always wanted to go to Japan and plan to when I have more disposable income, but I don’t know a lick of the language.

I’ve always wanted to visit okinawa tho

>>36500
>>36481
Tell me more about your trip (:
Is the nature pleasant? What part of your trip did you enjoy the most?

I never made it to Kyushu on my last trip, I'd like to visit Fukuoka and Nagasaki and some other places.

Yay thank you all for the questions :)

>>36502
I have studied for about 5 years on and off, but I'm in an unrelated major at uni now so I don't have the time. I'm about to take the JLPT level N2 if that means anything to anyone. Anyway, I think in larger cities you don't need to know much (if any) Japanese to get around because there're so many English speakers already.

>>36508
Okinawa seems pretty nice, but idk

>>36510
The most interesting thing I did is probably riding in an ambulance with a friend at night because she sprained her ankle. I had to go because I had to fill out papers but it was still a lot of fun.
I did a lot of walking around, as there are lots of nature parks and beaches inside the city.I think my favorite place there is Ioujima, a small island south of Nagasaki with a really nice beach.
There's so much greenery there, it's crazy that it's such a gigantic city, There hundreds of shrine there too, which are fun to walk to and explore.

>>36514
I didn't spend very much time in Fukuoka, only 2 days when I flew in, but it seems pretty nice. It has a Pokemon center which is pretty cool, I might visit it when I fly in this time. Nagasaki is really different I think though. It's got a lot of history like all cities in Japan, but at one point it was the only open port in Japan, so it has a lot of really cool foreign influences. I really recommend it :)

>Internet drama used to be much more amusing when people just laughed about stupid people doing stupid things instead of comparing themselves to them and using trainwrecks who broadcast their crazy lives to the internet to feel better about themselves.
This too.

This site has devolved into just venting negative emotions and talking about sex, there's pretty much no reason for it to exist anymore because it now has the exact same board culture as the off topic boards on lolcow.

>>36454
The off topic boards on lolcow are still associated with the cow boards, it looks bad and this site exists because enough people wanted a separate place.

>>36454
There’s too much fixation on boys; specifically r9k tier basketcases in this site to my liking. Like I don’t think the average wizardchan counterpart thinks that much about a “uwu shy neet grill”

To be fair I am suspect that 90% of those threads are made by “fellow femails”

>>36449
>Kind of horrifying that it's one of the more popular boards on the site.

That's the whole reason the site was made though. There's a reason ot/g/m are called "the off topic boards". For the first couple of years lolcow was just /pt/, not even /snow/.

>I like middle eastern men. I'm not sure which specific country, but there's a type of guy with thick curly black or brown hair and dark skin with long sort of Jewish caricature esque noses and it makes my heart hurt just looking at them
Anon are you me holy shit. My boyfriend is a kavkazi/persian jew and he's cute as hell I love him and I find it endearing how he thought of himself as unattractive for his whole life yet I find all of his facial features incredibly attractive and I wouldn't trade them for anything.

>>36245
It depends.

Walking around town in a short dress? Black dudes in cars. Dating apps? Autistic white dudes and what I refer to as "tinder doms". Bar/social gathering? Weird 30+ y/o men of all races who stare at me until I push whoever I'm with towards them to distract them. Normal places where you would meet actual potential partners? No one

>>36269
You're lucky. I only ever meet a few of these a year and they're always sort of shy and adorable. The hair… Ah man.

I’m fapping to this thread. Not really that hot, but I’ll probably break out the magic wand and git er done.

I know a girl who jerks off to manga pics, but that's a totally normal behavior.

what you don't know won't hurt you.
If someone masturbated to me for some reason, I don't think I'd care, but it'd be kinda weird.

I thought this was an 18+ board.

Asexuals have no problems. Its the sex craving/entitled masses that have the problem.

>Its the sex craving/entitled masses that have the problem.
I will rhetorically ask whether there are people who disagree with this. If I had a button that would completely and permanently kill my sex drive, I think I'd consider it for a short moment before "[smacking] it with a fistful," as I once saw someone put it. I feel like a slave to my own physiology. (That said, I think it's silly to say that asexuals have no problems, for reasons that should be obvious.)

>>33750
>Men hate the idea that they can't fuck someone.
Reminds me of lesbians who are being told they just need to find the right man or be "fucked straight". Heterosexual men can be really stupid sometimes.

>>33171
It's simple really. Some people take offense to the fact that they're not even considered. They'll feel slighted because in their eyes, you think you're too good for them. Same problem with those guys who try to seduce lesbians. That said, it's not just men, Stacies feel offended when they don't have a guy wrapped up around their finger and start calling him gay. Happened to my cousin. And a friend of mine was once harassed by a lesbian girl at a party just because she didn't dress like most girls. According to her, the lesbian girl even said "I can make you feel better than any man can" and "If you close your eyes you won't be able to tell the difference", she couldn't take a hint until she was slapped by my friend. People who try to force others to consider them as potential partners are all scum, regardless of the gender or orientation.
