Hey Pandas, What Do People Say To You That You Think Is Annoying But It’s Completely Normalized? (Closed)

Worst part is when they treat you like you are uneducated or victimised. People get surprised when my mother speaks immaculate English since she wears a hijab and abaya, and she has to explain that no, she was not deprived of education and had the same access to it as boys.

Do you know Catholics used to have to cover their heads with a mantilla? Oh, excuse me just females. I was never harassed in any ways. Yes it is all right to persecute Jews, Muslims, and others. Talk about hypocrisy.

i don't give a f**k what other people wear as long as it's not a hate symbol

If a person wants to dress modestly, then that's Her choice. If a woman wants to be as naked as possible, as the bottom pieces are covered, it's her choice .

In addition, all the people who think anxiety is 'cute' or 'quirky' like bro no it isn't adorable or attractive in any way to spend an hour spiraling about literally f*****g nothing and wanting to jump off a building. People who fake mental illnesses or say they have them for attention are actual scum

I've seen a bipolar person in a manic phase. It was *horrifying*. "Moody" is not bipolar; neat is not OCD.

As somebody with a handful of mental issues, I DESPISE these people.

and when people fidget a bit and they're like 'oh, hahaha, ADHD moment!!!'

i "literally" have panic attacks and someone said I was minimizing her when I said that I had had a panic attack the day before. i had been hyperventilating and felt like I was dying, and yes I do in fact have panick disorder

Yes! 1000 upvotes from here if I could! It seems that my neurodiversity makes me sense and taste a bit differently than most others. So I eat certain "weird" things/combos and refuse certain "normal" foods. Have been ridiculed for this my entire life and only when I was labelled as neurodiverse close to a year ago did it make sense to me why I seem to be so strange with my foods.

Ooo used to have a coworker that would do this. Walk alllllll the way across the office just to look at someone's food they saw them bring to their desk..

I've had people say "but you don't look depressed" or "What have you got to be depressed about"..

Yes. I function at a high level. I have epilepsy; I have PTSD. Drug addicts are also often highly functional. Serial killers are often functional. People whose cancer is in remission are often functional. Do I really need to go on?

"you seem nonfunctional" is a good response

Like saying "you're rich you can't be unhappy"

'All men are attracted to big chests' I'm gay

I don't NEED sex, but I do want it. I'm not promiscuous in nature. I didn't want to loose it, wasn't really that bothered (but did do it very young). I prefer smaller boobs. Would rather be "Chained" to one that respects me and I respect in return. But I'd never utter the words 'Not ALL men'.

So as a significantly close to asexual male (as in, I do not really care for it), the above are all false for me, except the 'promiscuous' part. Basically my default is to say 'yes' if I'm not seeing someone, but really it is boring.

As a former pastor, this one in bothers me because not only does it minimize people's suffering, but they're also mis-quoting and misinterpreting the Bible. The passage that people use to make this claim is 1 Corinthians 10:13, which says: "No temptation has overtaken you except that which is common to man, but God is faithful; He will not allow to be tempted beyond your ability. And with every temptation, He will provide a way out that you may be able to endure it." This does not say, nor does it mean, that He won't put on you more than you can bear. This passage specifically talks about temptation and is saying that everybody suffers temptation, but there's always a way to resist temptation if you wish to. This passage has nothing to do with the kinds of troubles and tragedies that we face in life. Every day people are confronted with pain and problems that are more than they can bear. That's why we have high rates of depression, substance abuse, and suicide.

Mother Teresa said to this; "I just wish he didn't trust me so much"

and he overestimates. I mean the dude set his own son up for a cruel early death

Well also some aren't religious so.

the fourth one though... it's so out of place in a great way

Ok a bit off topic, Marina is a QUEN!

Thyroid is serious. I'm on the thin side, everyone in my family is. Genetic I guess. A co worker once asked me if I was one of those "pukers".

tbh, i prefer shorter people, and i date based on personality. plus if I like someone's personality, I see them as attractive
