I think Muslims take this more seriously because, as someone who grew up in a region where most people identified Catholic (and most of the rest just had no religion) but didn’t practice much, I wasn’t even aware of that rule.

I do the same when I want to start working on any task but it seems daunting or boring and I procrastinate. I just do the first step, like “ok just open the task’s description, read it and try to understand the context”. By the time I did this, I have no difficulty moving to the next step.

I don’t even care about cars but that’s amazing.

What about hookups though? I’d say there isn’t much human connection there, and certainly not friendship.

This thread is weird. It seems like you all never heard of compost.

Got examples?

Depends what.

Customer-facing work: you can stay open longer.

Office work: yeah, since productivity plummets, I don’t think it helps much, if at all.

Yea. “Female” and “male” don’t sound weird to me in themselves. I don’t see then as in a different category of words than “women” or “boys”. But using it in an inconsistent way would be weird to me as well. If in a class, the girls, or women, are in the same age as the boys, or men, then it should be either “girls and boys”, or “women and men”. Or “females and males”. But “females and boys” is just inconsistent.

I use it, and never mean it in an offensive way.

“The pronoun “she” is for females, while “he” is for males”.

But now that I see that it’s so widely seen as a slur, I’ll refrain from using it with people who don’t know me well. I’ll use “women and girls”, now.

As usual, it’s male pieces of shit ruining everything for everyone else.

Thanks for the explanation. It’s too bad it’s seen as a slur, as it’s really useful to group women and girls with one word. As is “male”, for men and boys. This one doesn’t appear to be seen as a slur, though.

You’re incredibly patient. I commend you, really.

No idea what’s going on as well, by the way.

There’s Bandcamp, also, for discovery.

Can you imagine how specialized you would be if you only had one interest? Like the example non-ADD person just into politics… They must know the name of every representative at every level from city to country where they are living, know the detailed history of the political parties, and have a deep knowledge of political movements and their history.
