Because it's normalized gaslighting. If a kid isn't encouraged to think critically and is told to ignore their own perception of the world, they learn to seek truth externally from themselves.

This is the content I come to Lemmy for. Thanks for taking the time to post this!

Keep your hand raised because I'm coming in for a perfectly-landed high-five!

I'll say I've noticed that there are places in my house that trap me into an energy drain stasis, so I try to avoid letting myself get into my rot spot unless I'm ok with doing absolutely nothing for the rest of the day.

I thought this was clearly accepted as a phenomenon that started when Americans started to switch from radio to television.

I think there are definitely less women than men but probably more women than it seems like.

I know I don't mention I'm a woman unless it's relevant, like this post. Sometimes, I'll even purposefully use vague language or gender-neutral terms because I don't want to get condescending interactions or feel like I have to be a perfect representation of a woman in order to dispel stereotypes.

E.g. Although I love technology and tinker with a home lab and small Arduino projects, I'm not about to look like an absolute CS genius if someone feels like confirming a bias they have about women and CS skills.

AKA "You like baseball?? Name every player on the Cubs twenty years ago then."

Cis-woman with female bits here. Sounds like I might be an odd one out, but I float between amateur video, digital hentai manga, and Literotica.

I have to have porn of some sort to orgasm with my hitachi. I can orgasm manually without porn, but it's not as full-body as the vibe orgasm, so I only do it this way when circumstances require it.

I Netflix and chill myself maybe 2-3x a week, which is partially because it can take a while, and because other people, who aren't my partner, need to be in another part of the house because the vibe is not silent.

So that's generally how much I use porn. 2-3x a week.

To answer your question, if you mean the porn to bate session ratio is closer to 1:1, then I might win that over men because I use porn every time I jill off. If you mean a higher frequency of porn sessions, then men will probably win because I only DJ my EP a couple times a week.

Side note: It seems like a lot of men can orgasm from photos, which is baffling to me. I can't get to Planet Orgasm from that train. Maybe it's different types of imagination versus a male v. female thing.

My thoughts as well. They should require a religions of the world class. That'll really get the atheist agenda cookin'.

Oh wow, didn't realize it was cool now. Where do I collect on all this coolness?

Oh no they don't. They believe in the literal devil and you can be sure they haven't done five minutes of research.

A cool org like the Satanic Temple will ask that their own seven tenants be displayed as well.

This will cause the Christian right to lose their minds. Who could have ever seen this coming? They will say that it will corrupt the children. They will not let the tenants be posted. Raging mobs of Concerned Christian Parents will yell at their school boards.

Cue lawsuits from the Satanic Temple.

Suddenly and quietly, the lawmakers realize that they haven't yet broken the courts completely and they'll roll back the ten commandments requirement. From the side of their mouths, they'll blame the evil, godless liberals for the downfall of the US. You see, it'd all be milk and honey if we didn't ban Jesus (you probably haven't heard of him, right?) from the children.

It's the same song and dance every fucking time. Please donate to the Satanic Temple and/or the ACLU so they can continue to push back against this bullshit.

Body double--sit nearby when she's trying to study and work on something similar.

Or, make it a game or competition.
