It's just a negative penis size!

(But really, clitoris is kinda a derivative of penis)

[–] Allero 3 points 9 hours ago

14cm

I'd say it's a fairly average European dick

While it may sound weird, it's actually super true.

You'll be amazed at how long it actually is once you try to slip it out.

Let's put that super clear:

There. Is. No. Good. Dick. Size.

There are ladies that prefer 8 inches, and ladies that prefer 4.

Some will not feel it deep enough, some others will say it hurts because it's too deep.

Just...make sure you and your partner find a way to make good use of whatever you've got. Select poses that will set you on the right depth, do magic with other sorts of penetrative and non-penetrative sex, and just listen to each other's bodies.

Also, to everyone who goes with "big dick = alpha" shit, you're both wrong and make it hard to unfuck some guys' minds on what makes them good for sex.

Nope, just not true.

Sexuality is heavily tied to aesthetic attraction, in most men too.

You don't want to see it.

For the purposes of saving water, your dishes are repeatedly washed in dirty greasy brown water before rinsing. This does not look good, but in fact it is alright.

  1. We do have enough copper

  2. Copper can be replaced with other materials in many applications

While we should always be careful about how we expend natural resources, we should not fall into sensationalism.

Ahhhh!

Nice one

Heads up that you might have replied in the wrong thread

Fats are a normal component of any cell membrane, and if we're talking no fats whatsoever, there would be no membrane to speak of.

It's not just about the storage cells.

[–] Allero 25 points 2 days ago (4 children)

That calls for a monkey's paw

  1. There's literally no more fat in your body. Your cells burst, you die immediately.
  2. You're not able to gain weight, but you still lose it. Every time you sweat, breathe out, go to the restroom - you lose weight. In a matter of month or two, you die from exhaustion.
  3. Now you can't buy groceries and really anything you want or need and are forever reliant on others to provide you with anything you didn't yourself produce.
  4. The height increase is achieved by all your organs instantly extending, causing internal injuries and disabilities and now many physical stresses can kill you.
  5. You're so strong you cannot adequately measure it, and have to be very careful not to break everything around you.
  6. You're always happy. You're never able to grieve, or reflect, or do anything. You've lost any reason to progress, or even really sustain yourself. You die in bliss on the streets.
  7. Followers are invading all of your personal life. They doxx you, follow you everywhere, try to document every moment of your existence. You cannot have peace and solitude ever again.
  8. You forgot your ex. You also forgot every good moment in your life you ever had together, and are left wondering what is that void in your brain. You will never know what happened. But someone, somewhere out there who is your ex will.
  9. Inflation came strong, and now everyone has millions upon millions of dollars. Too bad they're only worth a few rolls of toilet paper.
 

Some people describe it as a network, some people describe it as a forum, yet somehow we have providers, and at the same time Usenet is seen as anonymous despite having a proxy in the form of a provider...for someone grown way after the Usenet prime, this all doesn't make sense.

What is Usenet, actually? Is it a separate network? Is it layered on top of the Internet? If it's the latter, why do I need some Usenet provider and why does it need to retain information (and why doing it for as long as possible is desirable?). Please help me connect the dots here.

 

Today is the 48th year the world as a whole gets to celebrate International Women's Day - a day celebrating the achievements of women fighting for a better, more equal and fair future.

In this day, it is important to revisit the origins of this celebration, and what it means for the people and for the feminist (and wider antisexist) movement.

 

According to recent studies, women remain to be underrepresented in the field of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM); for example, women only fill 31,2% of R&D jobs globally, with most parts of Asia, North America and Western Europe among the underdogs. On the other hand, Central Asia leads the way with 49% of research positions filled by women, along with some of the Eastern European countries such as Lithuania, Bulgaria and Latvia all exceeding the 50% mark.

As the share of women in STEM raises within a country, it gets easier to maintain as women feel more represented and capable of the career. One of the interesting observations is that the share of women in STEM is higher in the countries where there have been large historical shifts that expedited their inclusion; for example, most post-Soviet countries have better numbers of gender equality in the field, as the now-dissolved country has put big emphasis on the higher education of women, forming a self-sustaining image of women as scientists and innovators.

 

In many countries around the world, women enter retirement earlier than men: typically, the difference set is about 5 years. As women already leave work for their pensions, men remain part of the workforce.

As the retirement age grows for everyone, men thereby remain the most affected: with an average male life expectancy of 70,7 years, an average man is going to see about 5,5 years of retirement, as compared to 12,5 years for women that have both lower retirement age and higher life expectancy.

 

If you look into official data on the voting rights for women, it will paint you a pretty positive picture: all countries, except for Vatican city, do officially allow women to vote in elections.

However, in practice, there can still be plenty of barriers for women to vote. From legal restrictions for women to leave their house without husband's permission, to threats of violence on the booths, there are many things that make it impossible for women to actually put in the ballot.

The article explores these barriers in some of the countries around the world.

 

72 countries from various regions of the world still have military conscription. Of them, only 23 conscript women; all 72 conscript men.

Some of the countries that conscript both men and women have different conditions of service; for example, in Israel, men serve 32 months, while women serve 24.

 

As the legal system and society at large fails to recognize intersex people, surgeries and forced HRT continue to be pushed as a means to force binary gender standards.

Neither children themselves nor the parents are properly informed of the harms and risks involved in the procedure, as highlighted by the Human Rights commission of the United Nations.

This comes at a time when similar procedures are routinely denied to trans people, prompting questions on the validity and sincerity of concerns over gender treatment of children and adolescents arising under many conservative governments.

 

Average working time of German men is 43,27 hours, as compared to 34,63 hours worked by women, constituting a 20% difference. Men are also found to be more likely to take blue-collar jobs that are commonly more dangerous and physically demanding.

However, women are more likely to cite family obligations as the reason for choosing part-time work, suggesting more unpaid home labor compared to men.

Interestingly, the reasons for overtime work may also differ between genders: men are more likely to get additional hours to boost income, while women are more likely to step in for colleagues.

 

Women still spend more time caring for children compared to men, as evident from the US survey carried out between 2011 and 2021.

Interestingly, while levels of employment affected child care time for both men and women, for men the effect was less pronounced.

One other interesting finding is that the difference between men and women is minimal when both work full-time, suggesting a more equal distribution of duties due to lack of available time.

 

!antisexism@lemmy.today is a community directed against the gender-based discrimination of men, women and nonbinary people.

It stands strongly against patriarchy and all forms of gender inequality, and is supportive of both feminism and masculism, as long as their end goal is equality.

Since, apparently, no Lemmy communities I know have tackled the gender-based issues from this angle, I decided to start my own. Will be happy to see you!

 

Women constitute majority of victims for sexual violence, physical violence, and stalking; however, the prevalence of victims among men also appears to be higher than commonly suggested.

According to WHO statistics for 2019, 70% of suicides globally are committed by men.

In the US, this number goes as high as 80%, according to CDC: https://www.cdc.gov/suicide/facts/data.html
