Op should have gone "My relationship with my wife isn't as strong as I thought it was, what can I do to strengthen it? " Instead he went "I'm going to act like a huge piss baby to spite her and further distance her from me"

Scaevolus posted:Huh, I thought only incels cared about their partners' oral sex histories. OP is basically the equivalent of many men who fetishise lesbians/bi-women but don't actually respect them. Kind of bigot lites. I once sat in a kitchen at a party and listened to 6 women all agree that while they were definitely not homophobic and have lots of gay friends, they could never date a bisexual guy. Reasons included, aids, cheating and 'too girly' among others. Several of them joked they liked bi-porn though!

CharlestheHammer posted:I’m pretty sure if someone’s abusive the goal should be to stop it not try and destroy their life in every way you can think of While in this case I definitely think the OP could easily have been more careful,tactful and still been able to warn people about her ex, the dilemma behind it isn't a new one. This has been hotly debated for years, at least in the UK after Peter Tatchell as the spokes person for 'OUTRAGE!' in the late 90s started outing closeted politicians who backed anti gay legislation. It caused a massive rift in the LGBT rights movements and lead to a splinter group called "F*ggts Rooting Out Closeted Sexuality" (FROCS) who supported the tactic fully (but then later claimed it was a hoax). One of their targets was an MP called James Kilfedder who died of a heart attack on the same day his outing was due to take place in the press. While not the same as outing a trans person, outing a gay person in the 90s definitely had serious and dangerous consequences and its a moral mindfield especially as its hard to question the massive leaps forward groups like outrage were able to make for LGBT rights in the late 90s and early 00s with these tactics.

Monarchies committed cousin incest to retain power amongst the family. Outside of this though the act has been taboo across all of Europe pretty much always. Anyone who tries to convince you otherwise probably sniffs their sisters underwear and is trying to normalise it to you.

He's just blocking it by keeping applying new motions which delays it for a month or two then repeats the process again. This works in many countries including the US (although only up to a certain point). Most of this is due to old laws that just have never changed. In the UK we recently updated ours for the first time in 50 years because of a famous case similar to this that caught the media's attention.

Whorelord posted:In the UK the only toilets without locks here are the ones in nightclubs because the bouncers smashed the door in to get at the people doing coke in them. Your nightclub still had a door on its hinges? Well look at you fancy pants. My favourite dive a few years back went for about a year and a half with the only cubical in the men's without a door, it was right by the toilet entrance too so whenever the door was opened everyone in the hall, including the women queueing for theirs, could see you making GBS threads, solved the coke problem though. But yeah, toilets in the UK have locks, every toilet I've been in in Europe had a lock. At this point the thread title should just be changed to "its normal in Europe" for all the dumb stuff you guys make up. Mega Comrade fucked around with this message at 09:01 on Aug 5, 2020 |

This person sounds like they fear that they arnt as intelligent as other people think and is frankly trying to over compensate. I'd not be surprised if they have an older sibling who excelled in education far more than they did. Also curious what this stimulant is? I hung around with a lot of drug users when I was younger and the worst thing they ever did was coke. Coke makes anyone who takes it a complete loving arsehole, no exception.

His actions at the time I think are fine. He was already by the car trying to get his wife back inside when the passenger threatened violence, he responded to this with violence. Maybe not the wisest decision but human. And its clear he was right to not let her go and that this friend is a lovely friend. But his actions afterwards however show some deep paranoia towards his wife that I think are concerning.

The wedding of 30 is still allowed, just not the reception so I'm trying to convince my (well its hers really) family too postpone this madness or atleast cancel the reception. They arnt even getting married legally, it's all for religious reasons, them dating is bringing shame on her family, that sort of nonsense.
