This one has always bothered me.

wait is that true? on what logic does this based on?

Yeah, no, around here we call men out on "manstruating". ;)

Y'know, because of this stupid double standard, I find out almost impossible to cry when I need to let go of sorrow and pain. There's many a time I wished I could cry but couldn't.

"bossy"

Still can't believe that this man is the actual president of the United States of America. What the hell is wrong with that country???

Not all teachers are great.. They are humans and as in all areas, some can be pretty crappy humans. I had some awesome teachers, but also had my share of bad ones..

No violence is acceptable in any way.

When I go home with someone, I write a quick Whatsapp to a close friend who I go out with and where he lives. In case I will get murdered the police will has more clues.

Why would you go home with someone you don’t know?

As a man, I'm very much afraid of death. Most humans are.

Is it bad that for me I thought the double standard was that only men are murders when actually women can be too I was like wtf why would you want anyone to be a murderer xD

How is this a double standard? I do think it's true, and it's not good, but how does it qualify as double standard?

I feel like "murdered" is a bit paranoid. I mean, it's safe to say that MOST people aren't murderers. Hell, something I've realized in life is that a lot of people don't think about killing people like... AT ALL, and they either would be mentally unable to kill someone or wouldn't if not in self defense or under severe emotional duress.

That newspaper headline is absolutely appalling.

I've met plenty of creepy cute people, and some truly charasmatic, intelligent, funny "not-so-cute" (according to once culture's very limited, commercialised interpretation of "cute") people who I adore spending time with.

I always get told I'm skinny. People don't think anything of it, but it's starting to hurt.

The grown up equivalent of sticking fingers in your ears and going "LALALALALALALALA!"

at least gamers are better thinkers than phoners (if that word exists)

calling yourself "pro-life" but only caring about the fetus till it born

Sexism is wrong either way around!

I LOVE this one!

This is so true... I have many friends who have had this experience when dating. We often discuss if it's a trend in society today, that people don't want to compromise, but wish for their potential partners to be a perfect match.

I am an avid horror film fan and this has bothered me a lot. I personally find sex scenes stupid and unnecessary and have often found myself to chose a 13 rated film over an 18 because I can expect more gore and less sex. That shouldn't be.

of course,HE won't ....

It's 'pot calling the kettle black'..

This is so true!

Let me be pedantic and point out that Eric here did not mean "sexually or sexyly kissing". Just a simple pek on the cheeck between two men is enough to make most of the people freak out.

Well, I consider this girl funny but not because she's overweight, she just looks like a funny, cheerful person.

HOP called for Franken's resignation while being led by Trump who bragged about groping women.

so your only angry American Gis were killed? not all the millions of allied fighters trying to protect the world from at tyrannical regime or the millions of innocent Jews? This is a good point but its worded really badly. All Nazis are evil no matter when they live/lived or what country they are from.

Religion requires victims.

We already did this one, ...

I think that this is completely unfair, so I rebel by only shaving twice a month and only in spring and early autumn, for this is the time when you have to go to school and the weather is hot.

I'm so tired of getting called a witch when I just casually fly over the street >:C.

What's the context of the man harrassing teens?

Depends how harmful the opinion is: "I don't like a tv show" vs. "Kill all f**s".

Describe himself as a self-made man, started his business with dad's money...

Healthy food is expensive and hard to produce.

Paul Ryan is a waste of oxygen on the face of this planet!

Congress makes retirement (Social security) and healthcare mandates for us, and then exempt themselves.

lol. Thats funny

You left out the women who also accuse Trump.

It's like, a dozen spiders had a contest on his head, to build the whispiest webs! I'm so obsessed with his weird hair n orange tan! Lol. At the very least, he's good meme fodder!

Omg, that GIF! Loool!

I Romania you can stay all day long on a beach topless, nobody boders you. In mall or restaurant nobody goes in topless, man or woman. But on beach you are free.
