Wed Dec 4, 2013, 05:03 PM
Dec 2013

And a person who decides a partner's viewing of porn means s/he is not good enough for the partner definitely qualifies as someone with low self esteem.


E***** forgot about a party this weekend. The host of the party wrote on Facebook that she was now on his "poo-poo list."

E***** has low self esteem. So where you and I would see the obvious joke in "poo-poo list", she believes the host really is now angry with her. So E***** has posted dozens of long rants on Facebook about how bad she feels. And how the host is such a horrible person for hurting her.

R**** is E*****'s best friend. R**** has no self esteem problems. R**** is very quick to take action against those who (usually unknowingly) hurt E*****. R**** would easily do something to hurt the host of the party.

But all they and the host had between them was one common friend who died a few years ago. Prior to the funeral they had never met the host of this event. They see/talk to each other once a year around the anniversary of his death. That's it. They aren't worth the time and effort. So they are safe from R****'s wrath.

This is written as if it was done a long time after she experiences this trauma. She says "to this day" as if she discovered the 17-year-old's porn ages ago.

But then ages later she smashed his iPad and scratched words on it about that?

I'm trying to figure out the time frame.

We're talking about teenagers here. Takes a while for the whole "perception of time" thing to kick in.

Wait until they discover that there are such things as "fast days" and "slow days"

You should have provided the link to the mating thread (now closed as isnotwasm shut it down) - http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=4132844

As far as this post goes...and I do see that isnotwasm's was a failed, lame attempt at a response to this one , I think you can read into it about anything you want to. I have no idea what gender the pic author is or what the motive is for the message or taking a pic of it and posting it on the internet. Seems kinda stupid, imo.

If I had written the subject line for the OP, I probably would have changed it to "I wonder if he/she posts here?" But, then again, I wouldn't have bothered creating the OP, in the first place.

Conversation with you goes no where. That you think misogyny rises and falls based on the sex of the author of that post is beyond bizarre. I saw proof of nothing, but really it is irrelevant who wrote the post. You yourself said it represented an ideal partner, therefore the list had resonance and showed that some men want women who stay in their place.

And naturally there is no sleuthing about the origins of this post because the whole point is to defend men. Why people think that's necessary, I have no idea, but it does show the complete and utter hypocrisy of the reaction to the other thread. I myself am not so insecure as to see something like this OP as determinative of me, and I have trouble understanding poutrage to something as trivial as ism's thread.

Happened to that iPhone?

I think he's dead, murdered by the guy who has secretly been in love with the girl all along and saw her descend into despair. They fought, she ran away weeping, neither knowing that stalker guy was listening from the bushes, grinding his teeth, waiting to strike and to take out his demented rage, first on "him" and then on that dirty, dirty phone. Call it "smart phone" if you like, but it wasn't smart enough...was it?
