I was married for 44 years before losing him two years ago, we have two kids, eight grandkids and two great-grandkids. I would literally give my heart to one of them if they needed it, THEY are my heart. I have no problem with anyone not wanting to get hitched or have kids. The world has gotten a bit...less stable and a whole lot of folks have just checked out of reality altogether. More people need to think before they create more small people, our world is becoming harsh in many places, Tornado Alley is widening Eastward into areas it's never been, our Glaciers and permafrost are melting at a record pace, temperatures are rising globally, and wars is hell.

Oh, yeah. Neighbours, friends, never stop pointing that out. I am 57, my wife is 61. You would think it stops. Not really. We are now the ones who "led an easy life without responsibilities", so we should go the extra mile for others. Mind you. When friends and family had their kids, they told us all the time it is "the best thing ever". Why can they not just leave us alone?

I agree....as a growing teenager I knew I never wanted kids. I never felt that "maternal" feeling. People would try to guilt-trip me but I gave it to them right back!! My sister felt the same way. I also knew later, then, that I never wanted to marry. Although my sister has been happily married for 16 years now and I LOVE my brother-in-law!

    *Assuming every interaction between people of different skin tones "must be racially motivated". Assjoles come in all colors. Sometimes when they get called out on their behavior, it's by someone of a different ethnicity. It has nothing to do with race, it has to do with them being an assjole.

As someone with what is essentially the quadruple threat of mental conditions, (ADHD, Autism, Anxiety and Depression) I can confidently say that the main issues caused by mental illnesses are nuerotypicals being inconsiderate, loud, oblivious, etc. (Not all of you of course, but some) also please teach your kids to be quieter, I don't want anyone else to have as many issues with school as I did.

But people don't feel like they can talk about it because they will be judged, which is a valid concern but shouldn't be. And I love how if you say you have depression, some people will say, "what are you depressed about" Thats like asking what are you coughing on when you have a cold.

    Non-conformity. Our society cares more about conformity than about whether your choices create actual suffering. If you would say we shouldn't wear clothes made with modern slavery or child labour, everyone would tell you to mind your own business. But people think it's totally okay to say a 60 year old woman shouldn't wear sexy skirts meant for 30 year olds. Or that an adult can't wear a bag with fairytale princesses on it because that's meant for kids, or that a man can't wear clothes that were designed for women. If you would say we shouldn't eat food that causes animal suffering or creates harm for the planet, people say we can eat whatever the f*ck we want. Yet it's considered completely fine to say people shouldn't eat lasagna for breakfast, or that you can't eat pineapple on pizza, or criticize people for eating really weird combinations. Even though eating weird food or wearing clothes meant for a different age group causes no actual harm. We just care more about "being normal" than about actual consequences.

It's probably because I'm from a newer generation where tattoos are more accepted nowadays (born in 95), but tattoos have become such a norm that I don't mind if people have them or not. If you're a good person, I don't mind if anyone is covered head to toes in ink.

    And it's not just in regards to which YouTuber you watch, but other means of entertainment too. As a gamer, I can't stand playing games like COD, Fortnite, or the new sports game, and focus instead on what I like (AKA: JRPG's). Unless I'm talking to someone specifically from the same fandom, or open minded gamers, people who like those games find me weird.

    Being homeless. Doesn't matter if you have a job, you're going to school, your 22 or 62. Doesn't matter if you previously had a full-time corporate job that paid all of your expenses and hobbies and are temporarily or permanently disabled. Doesn't matter if you're single or a family. You get lumped together with the severely mentally ill, the addicts who do not want help and the bums.

    My oldest son used to be a hobo (vs. being homeless); he'd work when he needed money. Now he went back to school, finished HS, got a diploma in aero-spacial mechanic, and he's now working full-time. He was also a druggie, a dealer, and he's full of mental illness. If he can do it, so can? Nope, it all depends on the person. Don't judge someone who can't do it.

    Choosing to prioritize your own mental health and well-being over others. We do have certain obligations of respect for other people, caring four our children, and generally not being jerks. Aside from that, people should be able to set boundaries, reduce or eliminate contact with toxic people, choose their own activities and interactions. It's OK to say no to something that doesn't make you happy, even if it would make someone else feel good.

You are more ostracized for being overweight than someone who is a d**g addict, a smoker, or a drinker, and yet you don't need any of those things it was a choice to start drinking, smoking or doing d***s. If you're overweight people think you are just lazy and have no self control, But you need food. It's so hard to lose weight and keep it off because you have to eat.

    Being judgmental. You don't get to do whatever you want and expect people to not judge you. A lot of the time when I hear someone complaining about being judged, it's someone being a pos and then getting mad when someone calls them out on it. I can, and will judge people. It's part of being in society. You don't get to decide whether other people judge your actions. You just don't.

    It's a 'Mom Thing' for me, I wanted my kids to be well-spoken(this covers all forms of communication) so I always corrected them in how they spoke and wrote. I just want everybody to be right and not be embarrassed by screwups. I didn't realize I kept doing it after they grew up. Then they had kids, so I continued still. I think it's encoded in my DNA now. I'm not a Grammer Nazi who wants to berate you for being wrong, if I correct you it's because I don't want other people making fun of you.

    Yes, I know that there are degrees of this. If someone types something that is genuinely difficult to understand, then sure, ask for some clarification of what they mean or ignore it and move on with your life. Just don't act all superior because you can spell - it doesn't make your argument more valid.

    Sure, a good viewpoint should also be considered. On the other side. Maybe because if you do not even try to write properly, I do not feel compelled to invest some of my time to answer an argument. Also, it hints that maybe you do not even care about investing your time to understand a proper argument. Just shelling it out. Regarding someone who has spelling problems, you cannot know if you do not know someone personally.

    I appreciate your honesty about your political stance, but I don't believe it's correct to judge other people and make generalizations based on political standpoints. You're making the claim that all Liberals blindly accept what the government tells them, and while people may agree with you, it's wrong to point fingers at a specific group of people just to make a point. I don't understand why you needed to target Liberals especially, because it goes against the entire meaning of this post, which is to fight against pointless societal judgements. I'm not downvoting or calling your opinion wrong, even if I disagree, but I feel your entire claim about people judging by social media standpoints is overshadowed by your harsh criticism and incorrect generalizations about a political idea/party.
