Person Asks Folks Online To Share Examples Of Positive Masculinity After Hearing Too Many “Toxic” Ones, And 30 Folks Deliver

This. In cases like this I'd ask, who's the manlier man, one that can wear makeup and "women's" clothes and still be a man or one that has to hide behind a mask of machismo in order to feel manly?

People Are Sharing 40 Things That Aren't Socially Acceptable For No Reason Whatsoever

Unfortunately, not really. It's probably more accepted than in the US but a simple good is the very common even if you're not. I usually go with "frag lieber nicht", which is something like "don't ask" but with the notion of them not wanting to hear the answer instead of me not willing to provide one.

“America vs. Europe”: 30 Things That Are Common In Europe That Americans Find Very Weird

There is no connection to any pre-colonial civilization in the US because all the native history, cultures, and people have been driven (almost) to extinction. It was a genocide and a total replacement of their culture. The situation is very different in Mexico (and I assume many other Latin American countries) where the cultures have been mixed together with the Spanish one.

The US government was fully aware the ship would be sunk because Germans declared so. They gave permission for the route nonetheless. They had also started a propaganda program created by Edward Bernais to change public opinion from against to pro entry in the war. The government, the military industrial complex and the banking sector wanted to get in on this war. Allied nations in 1917 had gathered a sum of $2 billion in loans to keep the war effort going and seemed to lose. Private banks like J.P. Morgan would have lost a huge amount of money, if the Germans won. The sinking of the ship was not the reason the US joined, but it played part in forming consent among the US people.

Poland doesn't have a two-party system, right? In that case, I'd say 50% is *a lot* of voters for a single party.

35 Weird, Fascinating, And Disturbing Statistics About Pretty Much Everything

While this was reported at the time, there's no actual documentation to back it up so most people are sceptical of the idea. Apart from anything else the idea that an 18th century Russian peasant woman would still have been fertile enough to be giving birth in her 50s is already unlikely. The idea that she would survive 27 separate labours is even more unlikely. The story also suggest that with the exception of one set of twins, the children all survived infancy. Some of the family became well known in Moscow and received favours from the Tsar and there is a story from the era that the Tsarina met the mother, which means they had no incentive to come clean if the story was made up. I suspect, if the 67 children existed, they probably had multiple mothers. It's a good story, but probably as likely as the woman in England who gave birth to rabbits.
