I think a lot of women (and some men) have only ever experienced sex in the context of coercion and abuse by men, have never had a real opportunity to express or develop any kind of sexual agency (because it doesn't come automatically!), and down among the many negative consequences of this unjust state of affairs is that some people in this situation find themselves unable to conceptualize that sex for anyone (or at least, for any woman) could be anything but a horrible, coercive, violating experience; they attribute these characteristics to sexuality in its fundamental nature and not to the injustices to which they have been subjected. This is of course not nearly the greatest tragedy of this state of affairs but it is an unfortunate thing. For many people, men and women, sexuality and sexual expression are deeply fundamental parts of their experience as humans and something they could not envision a truly full life without. This is not a fringe experience but an immensely common one. But there is a deep emotional barrier to meaningful understanding between these groups and I have very little sense of how to breach it.

Your dislike or phobia for certain animals never outweights the animal's right to exist and live, i keep running into this behavior and i don't know why some folks never got to learn that. Who do you think you are

Can anyone name any stories (regardless of medium) where the emotional arc of a 3 act structure is inverted?
Like protagonist has a base line of some kind, there's an inciting incident, the second act is his struggles to overcome his issues, things seem to actually get worse, but then there's a moment where everyone in the story reaches out and things seem to get a lot better, with victory in sight and so on, only for act 3 to rip it all away and leave the protagonist defeated.
Grave of the Fireflies is the only story coming to mind atm. There's no second act high point, but, whatever

there's a bunch of subgroups, some definitely are cults, most are just random usually autistic socialists who grew up on the 00s era new atheist internet
I wouldn't call the rationalists a cult person se. They're more like if that pharaoh who exiled children to an island to see what language they spoke, but for philosophy.

Why are you using chatgpt to get through college. Why are you spending so much time and money on something just to be functionally illiterate and have zero new skills at the end of it all. Literally shooting yourself in the foot. If you want to waste thirty grand you can always just buy a sportscar.

I'm an atheist and I usually use it as a by word for sentient mind
"corporations don't have a soul" "machines don't have a soul" neither do humans. I won't convert to your religion. Think up a new argument.
