Thank you all so much for chucking in a dollar or two on the charity. If you don’t have anything to give, don’t worry, because I’ll still contribute from ad revenue. Much love. 💜
There's a reason I don't go to the bar during drag fest. I've heard a few horror stories for coworkers about not actually realising the women they were talking with were men in really good drag.
Fun fact: the straightest man I know has so few doubts about his sexuality he's comfortable jokingly flerting with gay guys. No, he's not in denial, he's just that straight
An underclassmen (1 year diff) was a combination of Jock and Drunken pothead and he gave the best hugs. I wish he was gay but man was just that kind of friendly wonder that’s pretty rare
The "if your bf is blonde, that's your gf" is actually funny af 😂 Blonde ending in E is the feminine form, the masculine form is without E at the end. It is however, pointlessly gendered.
And like, that first like is actually legit if you take 'talking to' to be a phrase that means flirting with and coming onto, which it is in some places and Im not really against that because that's how language works and it's just a phrase, but if taken that way, the first like is good! If your man is flirting with or coming onto another woman, she is not the problem, he is. That's a solid thing. And then the second line makes it obvious she does not mean 'talking to as a phrase but rather literally and it's literally that 'they had us in the first half' meme for me
@@gin2594 Like yeah, but no. Yeah, if she meant "talking to" to be flirting with. But then the ambiguity because confusing. Either for the girlfriend or the boyfriend. If she said "Why is she talking to you?" The boyfriend can be confused and be like "...because she had something to say?" But also, that type of language usage is what makes words forbidden. So in this relationship, "talking" == "flirting" which means you can't ever talk to someone of the opposite gender. Like ever. So, for her, any sort of talking is tantamount to flirting and shouldn't ever be done. And yes, if a man in a relationship is coming to someone that's not his partner, that's not okay (unless it's a kink they have or they have an open relationship or something). But the line doesn't start what if he comes onto a woman, it literally starts with "If a woman is talking to your man..." Like, let's assume the benefit of the doubt to the largest possible degree. Let's assume the tweet meant: "If a woman is flirting with your man..." There's no qualifier to say who started it or that if that is even a concern to this person. If you're with your boyfriend (regardless of your gender), and some woman starts flirting with your boyfriend, well, how is that his fault? Let's say he's with you and he started it, he is a problem, but so is she if she flirts back when you're obviously with him. In which case, why are you with that man in the first place? These aren't things that just come out of the blue unless you're literally on your first or second date. Now, let's assume that, that she really does mean "If a woman is talking to your man..." like most rational adults do. Again, no qualifier if he started it. If he starts it... yeah, communication is a thing people living in society needs. If she starts it... yeah, communication is a thing people living in society needs. Like, as a cis male who learned English as a second language, these are the things that drive Americans mad and they don't know it. I try to tell them and they're like "that's just how languages evolve. Deal with it.". Assigning ambiguity, guilt, shame, connotation with completely opposite meanings, to everyday, mundane words is not a good idea. In an attempt to de-sexualize conversations, people came up euphemisms. But because these kind of things are so prominent as a part of life, but also on people's minds all the time because they have to have like a subroutine in their minds dedicated to dancing around it, everything became a sexual innuendo or the meaning of ordinary things default to sexual innuendo. "They slept together". Like how would you literally say "they slept together" without meaning they had sex? "I'd like to his/her " Ex. "I'd like to see his console". Hell, even "Becky bought a cucumber." All this results in virtually everything being sexualized. Man buys a sports car? He's compensating. Woman wears too much makeup? She's attention seeking. Men wears a lot of flashy things? He's peacocking. Woman wearing shorts and a shirt that doesn't cover her stomach? She's down to f*ck. Or... he likes sports cars. She's still learning how to put on makeup. He just likes accessories. And it's f*cking hot where that woman lives. And because the vast amounts of English speakers on the internet are from America and having lived in the US as a cis male, I need to say this. Yes, women definitely do get the short end of the stick in terms of social stigma and possible demonization and social shunning from the ambiguity and connotation of language. Like my sister and I had VERY different experiences and we're only 3 years apart in age. But this type of thing is bad for any and all genders and peoples and it's contributing to toxic masculinity and femininity. Like, this is how you get the "Have sex with a man to prove to yourself that not gay" line of thinking. And also, "She wears makeup, she must be a witch!" type of thinking (which, I think is going to make a come back pretty soon with the way people are talking). And, to any single woman out there. If a guy blatantly and unabashedly disregards your needs and desires to be treated like a person with feeling and needs, run. There are plenty of guys out there. Find someone that wants to walk close to you because they like to. Wants to feed you tasty food because they like seeing the joy on your face. Wants to be around you because they like your presence. Just remember that guys like that aren't usually the one with a chiseled boy or a flashy cars because that's not their priority.
@@sleepingkirby It's a context thing and sure for some places they wouldn't be able to tell, but for places who use it they can recognize the context in which changes the meaning of the phrase. And as for your opinion on American language, I'll remind you of two things, one, English is hardly the most confusing language, Swedish has far far more words and phrases with ambiguous meanings that depend on context, not only that but even if it's not common I'm sure every language has some ambiguous language in one form or another. Two: America is known as a mixing pot for a reason. Yeah, we have hella racism problems, but ultimately we are chock full of many different types of people. Louisiana has an entirely different /dialect/. Our language kind of needs to be free range to accommodate that. We can't hold rigid language qualifications when determining the language of hundreds of different cultures. Yes, it's confusing, but it's not a flaw. "Why are you talking to her?" Spoken calmly, is taken literally. "Why are you talking to her?" Spoken angrily is taken to mean flirting, barring another reason the person might be mad about it. It's the tone and context. In this sentence, the context makes it mean flirting, it's not until the second line that changes that context to be taken literally. This does not mean all talking is then considered flirting. The two contexts make them mean two different things. Think of it like lead and lead. I lead the ducks. I need pencil lead. Different context, different meaning. Whether the person or the partner starts it, if they are flirting, the partner is the problem. That's someone cheating on you, you should be more angry at them then the one who's flirting with them. Yes, if the person knows you two are together and decides to flirt, they are also at fault, but the wrong that has been done to you comes mostly from the partner. I will concede it is ambiguous whether they mean both parties are flirting or just the one, but as the phrase usually means both, and if there was no context that points otherwise, it would mean both. These things you list are a part of culture. They are social customs that the people within the culture know and use. Phrases, metaphors, and even the way people present each other, are all tied to culture. Are they all good? No, and good people do try to change things if they aren't. The assumption on a person's sex life based on appearances is one of those, I agree. But regardless, things like these are natural to the human race and are everywhere, even if you're so used to it you don't notice until you go somewhere with different customs. "They slept together" means to fuck, "They slept in the same bed for the night" or "they fell asleep in the same bed" means it literally. It's the context, the tone, the way you say it, and every single language has these. It's said that half of communication is in body language and tone, not words. Languages have quirks, they change, they get mixed up, it's what they do. Americans are good at flowing with a constant rapid change and keeping up because that's a part of our culture. I think you've gotten off point here, the point was that, taking away the context of the second line, the first would be read as "if your man is flirting with another woman, he's the problem" and we don't specify every single little detail so she's not going to say "he's most of the problem" because that can be assumed. As for social stigmas and how they come out as language: one, yes, out language can be cruel, a good example is the existence of slurs. But "if a woman wears make up she's a witch or a slut" is an idea, not an quirk of our language. We just use the language to convey the idea as that is what language is for.
So I looked up and read the whole thing at 4:14 and holy fuck. The dude thinks he’s “allowed” to talk like a slave plantation owner and has a “black pass” (whatever tf that means) since his wife is black. The woman literally mentioned having to fake being asleep just to avoid intimacy because he made fun of her and told her she was “too sensitive” when she told him to stop and said she didn’t like it. Heartbreaking.
I dont understand how she didn't just walk out in the middle of the night the first time. She must be in a difficult situation. I hope she got out of that abusive relationship now.
I was 8 and more mature than that guy. When I was 6, I got myself a cousin. I wanted a girl, and I got a girl. When I was 8, I wanted a boy because I thought it would be different since me and my cousin were both girls. Didn't get a boy. Wasn't disappointed. Was just happy to have a new playmate. I didn't cry, I didn't look sad. I was still happy.
I'm cis and straight and seriously embarrassed about some of the things I used to think. I've grown so much from the LGBTQ creators that I follow on youtube And learning that not everything my pastor and parents said is the absolute truth
Ey, we all gotta grow. At least you recognized it and threw the mindset that your pastor and parents are always right out. That alone makes you a homie.
From the same creators of: "Woman hate man? We ask a man" and "Where the lesbians come from? We ask the straights", the sequel - "How to learn about the LGBTQs? Going to the straight reddit"
I was thinking that. Dud wants us to belive he had intentions to learn about the rainbow Comunity going in to a sub about straights. Why not just admit he found that sub for wherever and felt outraged.

Fun fact: Mary Shelly's original was written as part of a horror contest between her and her friends. Also fun fact: Mary Shelly had her husband's calcified heart wrapped in the poems he wrote for her.

I am a raging genderqueer ace, i am enraged with all the sexual content shoved into my face and i am so mighty i am beyond gender, you cannot misgender me, i am god
"If ur bf is blonde that's ur gf" Actually not completely wrong, because "blonde" is the female version of "blond", from old english times when the language still had grammatical gender. So maybe they were just making a high profile linguistic joke? nah who am I kidding, probably not.
@@dianeb-r8512 That's absolutely why it's like that. English grammar has a lot of oddities because at various points in time people tried to make it more like French or Latin.
If it were grammatical gender inherited from Old English, it would have three versions not the binary we have. The binary suggests a French origin, which is the case. Blond(e) didn't even enter English until it was already shifting into Modern English
12:00 I almost sympathized with this guy for a moment. As a kid, I created all kinds of story ideas that I later found out already existed and it's kind of depressing. That feeling lasted for maybe two seconds before it vanished under the self aggrandizing and sexism.
That's, if they were that's a good joke it made me snort when you pointed it out. And if it is it's unfortunate that we live in a world where people call men girls for stupid reasons and create a pattern that would make us mistake a perfectly innocent joke as something hateful
As an American, no on the whole we are not okay. These “AreTheStraitsOK” make me wonder if my straight friends are the odd ones out, cuz these people are nuts. And OT, I agree why post this stuff.
I'm bisexual from an extremely conservative family, and my parents seriously say sh@t like this daily.. This channel is such a great outlet. Love from Sweden
Same dude/dudette/whatever the gender-neutral version is. I love my parents, but they literally made me stop watching Camp Cretaceous when I was younger because Yaz and Sammy were in a relationship. I had to hide Wings of Fire because of Sundew x Willow. Hopefully our parents can come to terms with people being LGBTQ+ (oh the horror)
I would like to say that Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein anonymously and when she reaveled herself to get the prize because the book got one, the ones in charge of it refused to actually give the prize because she was a woman. So yeah, your voice doesn't get drowned out for being a cis white male.
Also, let's be sure to point out that one of her contemporaries, Bram Stoker, wrote the *definitive* version of Dracula that became a worldwide cultural staple, and nobody ignores him for being a white male. (And that's not counting the thousands of white male authors who are/were bestsellers even if they were hacks, like HP Lovecraft.)
Yeah, I've never heard of Lovecraft being a hack, just a huge racist. And you can be a racist but also an original writer. Doesn't mean we have to like him, but it's possible.

The freedoms they’re worried about loosing are the freedoms to have a group of people they’re allowed to ostracize, abuse and be rude to without getting any backlash or being considered a bad person. I’m sure it does feel incredibly freeing to be able to do whatever you want to someone and not face any consequences, but that was never lined up to be a right you’re entitled to. Your rights end where you start hurting and restricting others and their rights.
When a cat bites you like that - where it doesn't quite break the skin, but you definitely feel it - it's telling you something important. Cats' communicate 99% inaudibly; they act out, not quite miming, to convey info. Cats, being small & territorial, can be vulnerable to larger predators and territorial rivals - and they know it. Considering how big humans are to them, it takes a lot to trust us - and trust is everything to a cat. Ever see a cat do a slow eyeblink at you? It's telling you it trusts you by closing it's eyes - you could attack while it's not able to see you, but it trusts you not to. Same thing with baring it's stomach - it's showing trust: that you won't attack it's soft belly to hurt or kill it. Which is why a cat attacks those that rub their bellies when they do this - they trusted that person but had their belly attacked anyway. Having a cat give you love bites is one of the highest regards they'll give: they're telling you that not only do they trust you, but they know you trust them - because, sure, they could bite the fuck out of you,... But they don't, they just bite a little to show you. That's a tribal animal telling another tribal animal it recognizes a bond between them. So, yeah, that cat loved you.
My cat is roughly 19 years old and she gives us Love bites still,,, it's just in her old age, she isn't as gentle as previously and it low key hurts 😹 but you can't be mad at her because she's just trying to show love
Aw... I didn’t actually know a lot of these facts. I was playing with my friends cat and he rolled over onto his belly, and so I saw this as a sign that he wanted tummy rubs, I felt really bad when he tried to scratch me.
“The handshake was designed as a greeting between men to show that your sword hand was empty” Oh dear…. You don’t want to check if my sword hand is empty? I’m afraid that might be a fatal mistake.
@@echiko4932 Dude. Has this coworker named Cat and one day we were talking and she slipped and said her “girlfriend” and this normally quiet but very self assured woman froze and looked at me like I was gonna smite her or something.

Pride month is kinda like a month-long birthday for the us everyone’s decorating and saying happy pride month and we’re being ourselves and celebrating us
I just "love" how so many people automatically assume that single moms somehow drove the man away. My sister was a widow. But I guess she was actually just a figment of my imagination. As was every other widow I have ever known. Dude. Just say, "I don't like children who aren't my own." That will weed out all the single mothers AND all the women who are infertile, but want to adopt.
Yeah- like "I would like to have my own biological children" is an okay thing to say, but not when you act as if every single mother was dying to date him and have him neglect her kids
I told my step mom I didn't understand why people would mistreat their step kids because they aren't their biological kids and said that if you weren't gonna be nice to the kids or didn't want kids just don't be in a relationship with a single parent. She agreed and said you should just be nice to kids in general, especially if they're your partners. If I'm ever a step mom, I'll basically ignore the fact that they're not my biological kids.
My parents are divorced but my mom is still the best mom she can be. All the stuff she's done for me over the years of my life she didn't need my dad to help with and same with him. They are both single parents and make time to be with not only their now adult children but their grand daughter as well. My mom may be 3000 miles away but at least she's apart of my niece's life. My sister is a single parent not by choice but because the father is A:Dead and B:denied my niece's existence. My niece is better off without a father like that.
When I had an online dating profile, I said I wasn't interested in divorced dads. Not because I had some moral issue or thought they were less than, I just didn't want to be the step mom in a family. I didn't want to be one of three/four parents making decisions for tiny humans that I didn't help make. Too much pressure. All that said, I can't fathom someone saying "obviously you suck if you can't keep a spouse". That's WAY reaching and super prejudiced.
For the people confused about “If your boyfriend is blonde, that’s your girlfriend,” it’s actually a very clever linguistic joke. “Blond” without the e is used to refer to men, “blonde” with the e is used to refer to women. OP is gently making fun of the people that spell it wrong. I’m an English major so I thought I could spread some knowledge! Have a nice day 😊 /gen
Actually - according to a wildlife expert friend the gender reveal party only caused that big of a fire because the wildlife officials weren't taking proper care of the forest. He said a cig would've had the same effect.
Okay- Let me make sure I got this right. - Marriage is not about trust, love, and support. It's about being a butt to your partner. - When someone cheats on you, it's bad. Unless the person who cheated on you is a girl. Then it's the guy's fault. - Instead of having a conversation about things that upset you, break something that belongs to the other person. This is good to know- the straights are not okay.
Let me correct you on something - if your partner cheats on you, it's your fault, regardless of gender. I've seen a lot of posts that said, "if your man cheats on you, that means you failed him as a woman".
Something I caught as a writer. Blonde with an "e" at the end indicates a woman while Blond without the "e" indicates a man! So I think it could be a literary joke.
@@donnyshields4450 they were commenting on the fact that "spaghetti" had quotes around it as if it wasn't real spaghetti. I was probably on some avant-garde art piece that you'd see on r/wewantplates
Okay I think I figured out the cat thing: Owning an animal that only wants hugs and affection = manly. Willingly keeping an animal that regularly amuses itself by actively trying to kill you = unmanly. Cat scratches? Oh you mean my battle scars?
Cats are a good lesson in consent, if they don’t want to be cuddled they will let you know! That’s why some men don’t like cats. (Notice I said SOME men, not all. That’s for all you “not all men” people out there).
Cats love language is biting though. And cats are very playful and have sharp nails especially as kittens. That's why cat ownership requires a little bit more strength😂
@@celestexo1999 more defense, not more strength. Dogs are alot stronger than cats on average. Not exactly fair considering the height difference but still.
The blonde one might be because: blonde = female blond = male But yeah, it isn’t really used like this anymore and everyone just uses blonde for both genders nowadays.
I always find it funny when a streight friend recognizes I am lesbian and then says "I do not have anything agains that, but please don't smooch in front of me" and then proceeds to make out with his girlfriend basically right in front of my eyes. I always want to reply "I have nothing against straights either bur please do not show your affection towards each other in front of me." and then procced to make out with my girlfriend. Then I realize that this would just lead to two couples making out.
obviously they are not your friend. If you have to censor yourself that much because the sheer fact you have a different sexuality is OFFENSIVE to them, they are not your friend and either need to be straightened out (pardon the accidental pun) or should be removed from your life.
In case you are curious, a Tomahawk is a type of steak. Its a Ribeye steak that is still on the bone, so it looks like a little axe made of meat. A 'Golden Tomahawk' I presume is like covered in gold leaf and super ostentatious...
Oh btw im pretty sure the receipt with the steak was from a mr beast video and they were the ones who took the photo and made that as a joke, if im wrong.... the dude from the post is crazy :D
@@rahafabbasi802 youtube didn't like even my edited link so: sadly it's a real place and the celebrity chef/owner has 15 of these restaurants what the hecccc
If people could just stop throwing gold leaf on/in stuff to jack up the price by a factor of three, that would be awesome. Of course a tomahawk steak is going to be more expensive than a deboned steak. Just charge whatever you need for the basic one and stop making skill look pretentious.
conclusion: some straights are okay some arent. also please if your partner has the opposite gender coming up and talking to them no one is the problem, its okay for them to be friends
I would agree except that blond and blonde are French in origin. Hence why it doesn't make sense in English anyways. Blonde is feminine and Blond is masculine I believe. English is an amalgamation of languages and still doesn't make sense though. But it makes sense that Blond is widely considered the go to in English because English doesn't use alot of specific gendered words, like Blond and Blonde.
@@alexshemwell8320 Seriously. I honestly think that part of the reason it's gained so much traction in the last couple decades is because they started calling anything left of "hunting poor people for sport" Communism.
And thus even decades of brainwashing backfired, because they had to define socialism as the extreme thing when capitalism got more extreme. Thus, socialism/communism is now the ultimate good to current capitalism’s ultimate corporatism.

"We're not allowed to have cats? I would love to have a cat!" Hey, EVERYONE KNOWS that men who love cats are supervillains! That's SCIENCE! I also love cats; let's start a league :D
Jammidodger brings up a good point, don’t remember the exact words but something like”there’s a difference between straight people and *the straights*”
I have a “straights being ok” story. One of my closest friends is cishet, I love her dearly but in the beginning of our friendship it was clear she didn’t understand or really feel too comfy with different sexualities or gender identities. But after about a year of being around me and the hoard of gay I attract, she’s really supportive and accepting. She’s completely comfortable making and being around lgbht jokes and humour, and she took the time to practice our friends name and pronounce as well as correcting herself when she missgendered them.
That's honestly so sweet. My cousin isn't really familiar with genders and sexualities but she accepted me as soon as I came out, and she always pays attention and tries to educate herself. She's generally a very chill, peaceful person but if anyone says something biphobic to me she'd definitely throw hands. God she's one of my best friends and I'm thankful for her every day. I'm really glad you have a good support system around you!
My brother really didn’t know much about gay stuff when I came out, but luckily he was really accepting and I’m slowly but surely educating him on LGBTQ+ issues.
I don't understand gender reveal parties. Some people defend them by saying it's a celebration for the future parents, but so is a baby shower. Why don't you just have a baby shower? As far as I know, baby shower celebrations haven't caused any serious injuries or wildfires.
An idea I have: they should have someone who knows the gender of the baby make a cupcake and have everyone cover their eyes before bringing it out, then they can say "OKAY OPEN YOUR EYES EVERYONE!" and show everyone the cupcake
Yeah I think they're very dumb in general because a baby shower can also be a gender reveal party. My aunt didn't tell us the gender of her kid until the baby shower and it was perfectly fine. Some people bought gender neutral gifts like certain toys, diapers, bottles ect. but she was fine if they bought stuff later instead and she got alot of gifts at the baby shower already.
Also, it's often the case that they're wrong about the gender/sex. It's surprisingly common for a baby to be born the opposite sex. (Also, "gender reveal" is a case of people insisting that sex=gender, and we see how often THAT goes wrong as well!)
"Being too soft": in school we talked with everyone about what the "ideal man or woman" would be. Most of the class found that men are expected to be/feel little emotions! It was honestly sad that people in this world think that just because someone is a man, that they have to be a complete emotionless rock of a person. The whole "being too soft" thing that someone said on this Reddit post is absolute GARBAGE! MEN CAN FEEL EMOTION! ARE YOU OKAY IF YOU DONT EXPERIENCE EMOTION?! HECK

I'm sorry dear Potato, but I can't agree with your general statement. Maybe it's my circles/country where I am, but I barely know any straights who aren't ok in lgbt+ context. Yes, they are ignorant, heck, I would say that about myself as well and I keep reading/educating myself, especially about other letters than B. And well, bad/abusive straight relationships, sure, they happen, as they do on lgbt+ side as well.

"The handshake was designed as a greeting between men to show that your sword hand is empty." - Well, be glad I'm shaking your hand then, because with that attitude, my sword hand isn't gonna stay empty for long... :'D
Random paleontology fact: oculudentavis is a genus of hummingbird sized avialan dinosaur that lived during the cretaceous period at around 99.41-98.17 million years ago.... That's was what we initially thought the genus to be but after a new species was recently described: O.naga. We now know they're in fact lizards, it is still unsure where the genus belong to in the lizard family tree but one thing we do know is that they're definitely not dinosaurs
It's not like there aren't definitely problems with the democrats, but the republicans are basically all-bigotry, all-the-time, which gives me some serious "throw a lot of people out" vibes.
I ACTUALLY HAVE A THEORY FOR WHY BACK-PATTING HUGS EXIST! I had to wear a chest-to-pelvis, hard plastic back brace for 6 months and I was incredibly touch-starved because I couldn't feel the hugs. But after hugging my dad (who will literally SLAP your back when you hug him), I realised that must be the only way you can feel a hug through armour! So much like how a handshake originally existed to show that your sword hand is empty, back-patting hugs still exist because that was the only way soldiers/knights could show their affection through their armour and the tradition continued! (Hug-centric historians please feel free to confirm or correct my theory)
This… makes sense. Not a historian, just someone who’s worn a backpack plenty of times, and yes, you can feel a hard back pat through a bag or armour, or at least hear it. It’s the reassurance of human contact in a way that also gets around the _massive_ ridge in the front of breastplates that were designed to deflect swords and arrows with extra space to slow them down if they broke through the plate while allowing for arm motion.
Eh... no. There were more touchy times after body armors were donned. Romanticism in the 19th century was all about feelings and stuff. I think it's really just a weird sense of manliness and homophobia in a way
This is why I’m tired of getting lumped in with the bastards (I’m libertarian). I know what is socialism, and what is just government overreach. They are not the same.

Sorry if it's a bit annoying but I think you should replace along with a long because along means to follow while a long means something lengthy or a large amount of time.
You're not getting the fact that equality is VERY hard to achieve, straight people are actually starting to be the ones that are ending up being treated as lesser, the situation here can be summed up in a few words, and those words are: "Some PEOPLE."
As a trans man too, I feel this 😅 I only like to spend money in small amounts at a time not in big amounts at once unless it's like essential items for living
I think, technically, the "if your boyfriend is blonde, that's your girlfriend" is a question of semantics. If I recall correctly, blonde = female, blond = male.
Also: burrata is an Italian cheese that is basically a ball of fresh mozzarella with a liquid cream center. It the cheese equivalent of a molten chocolate cake, and is delicious, but like everything else in that reciept is overpriced at that restaurant.
OMG I thought the same thing! My grandpa has a cat and they're best friends, it's so wholesome! They're like a disney movie! That part of the video is especially funny because my grandpa also happens to be a badass farmer and state athlete so he's still really fit and the idea of someone calling him "not a real man" because he has a cat is kind of hysterical. Not saying you need to be those things in order to be considered a man, but just the idea of someone looking at my super nice yet still pretty buff and active grandpa and acting this way around him simply because he has a cat, and loves that cat, is hilarious.

Wait.. So ur telling me that instead of spending thousands of dollars on transitioning, I could've just dyed my hair blond?! why did nobody tell me this earlier?!
I've had the wedding speech thing explained to me as more of an extension of male normalized behavior in expressing emotions. Namely indirectly with jabs since that's what's commonly taught is acceptable. Instead of upfront saying "I'm so proud that someone could see the good I've seen in you; I care and support you" it's "you've been whipped" and "I'll miss him" with a smile on their face the whole time. In other words they're total tsunderes about it.

A person replying to my emotional adoption of my dog: Gays and their emotions! Me: Hey straight people! Is it gay to have emotions? Adding that my best friend is straight and I am gay. If I let him, he will hug me for a good 5 minutes. He's a very tactile person and craves human touch. He's like a person on ecstacy but completely sober. He'll respect the hell out of your boundaries though. Love him to pieces.
15:22 because 'blonde' with an 'E' is the female version, 'blonde' s used to describe women, 'blond' is for men, i don't know why but that's the explaination
I was curious about the "Your Wife Is Not Your Best Friend And Thinking She Is Will Kill Your Marriage" article, so I looked it up, and although it's a clickbaity title and not amazingly well-written, it's nowhere near as bad as the title looks. Basically, it talks about how due to the financial and housing interdependence, the expectations on spouses and friends are different. It gives the example of someone quitting their job to go do something else and says that their friends should be mostly supporting their decision, whereas their spouse has more right and maybe obligation to be questioning it because of how it affects both of them, and that putting those expectations you have of your friends on your spouse can be unreasonable and harmful.
That's fair, but that's also a fairly limited view of friendship. Your partner can still be your best friend as long as you also consider that they're you're life partner and your decisions affect them in a way that would be different for a best friend you don't live with. People also sometimes live long term with solely platonic best friends, so in that case you would also have to address decisions in a similar this-affects-us-both way.
@@Lisa_Flowers Yeah, absolutely. I definitely don't agree fully with the article. And there are definitely relationships that blur some of the traditional lines between the relationship types (including the example of totally platonic best friends who share finances and live together long-term). I think it's totally fair to criticize it for being overly traditional and heteronormative. But it's certainly less bad than it sounds, and the snipping of it's headline out of context and memifying it as the straights not being okay seems deceptive and possibly deliberately so (by whomever made the meme, not by OT). That said, whoever wrote the headline was arguably angling for that to happen, so maybe the criticism _does_ lie primarily on the article.
The question of if it's gay to own a cat brought to mind the time someone pointed out to me that "Black people don't own cats". I though that was nonsense but once I though about it literally none of the Black people I know or have known own cats. And they're never portrayed as cat owners in the media or entertainment. My mind was blown because I had never noticed it before. ... ... ... ... That was 3 months ago. I can't STOP seeing Black people with their cats now. It's like the Universe and the Cat Distribution System colluded to make up for a lifetime of not getting to experience this most dynamic of duos, lol

@@moniquita720 also the straights when they see a vaguely feminine guy, that's a woman.

There's a reason I don't go to the bar during drag fest. I've heard a few horror stories for coworkers about not actually realising the women they were talking with were men in really good drag.

Man: *wears a dress*
Transphobes: Ur not a real man

Fun fact: the straightest man I know has so few doubts about his sexuality he's comfortable jokingly flerting with gay guys. No, he's not in denial, he's just that straight
I know guys like that. It warms my heart every time. But: I catch feelings way too easily -.- (That part's on me and not their fault, but still...)

Blonde ending in E is the feminine form, the masculine form is without E at the end.

"If a woman talks to your man, she's not the problem. He is."
A woman: Do you want fries with that?
The girlfriend: You cheating pig!
PFFT
And like, that first like is actually legit if you take 'talking to' to be a phrase that means flirting with and coming onto, which it is in some places and Im not really against that because that's how language works and it's just a phrase, but if taken that way, the first like is good!
If your man is flirting with or coming onto another woman, she is not the problem, he is. That's a solid thing.
And then the second line makes it obvious she does not mean 'talking to as a phrase but rather literally and it's literally that 'they had us in the first half' meme for me
@@gin2594 Like yeah, but no. Yeah, if she meant "talking to" to be flirting with. But then the ambiguity because confusing. Either for the girlfriend or the boyfriend. If she said "Why is she talking to you?" The boyfriend can be confused and be like "...because she had something to say?" But also, that type of language usage is what makes words forbidden. So in this relationship, "talking" == "flirting" which means you can't ever talk to someone of the opposite gender. Like ever. So, for her, any sort of talking is tantamount to flirting and shouldn't ever be done.
And yes, if a man in a relationship is coming to someone that's not his partner, that's not okay (unless it's a kink they have or they have an open relationship or something).
But the line doesn't start what if he comes onto a woman, it literally starts with "If a woman is talking to your man..."
Like, let's assume the benefit of the doubt to the largest possible degree. Let's assume the tweet meant:
"If a woman is flirting with your man..."
There's no qualifier to say who started it or that if that is even a concern to this person. If you're with your boyfriend (regardless of your gender), and some woman starts flirting with your boyfriend, well, how is that his fault? Let's say he's with you and he started it, he is a problem, but so is she if she flirts back when you're obviously with him. In which case, why are you with that man in the first place? These aren't things that just come out of the blue unless you're literally on your first or second date.
Now, let's assume that, that she really does mean "If a woman is talking to your man..." like most rational adults do. Again, no qualifier if he started it.
If he starts it... yeah, communication is a thing people living in society needs.
If she starts it... yeah, communication is a thing people living in society needs.
Like, as a cis male who learned English as a second language, these are the things that drive Americans mad and they don't know it. I try to tell them and they're like "that's just how languages evolve. Deal with it.". Assigning ambiguity, guilt, shame, connotation with completely opposite meanings, to everyday, mundane words is not a good idea. In an attempt to de-sexualize conversations, people came up euphemisms. But because these kind of things are so prominent as a part of life, but also on people's minds all the time because they have to have like a subroutine in their minds dedicated to dancing around it, everything became a sexual innuendo or the meaning of ordinary things default to sexual innuendo. "They slept together". Like how would you literally say "they slept together" without meaning they had sex? "I'd like to his/her " Ex. "I'd like to see his console". Hell, even "Becky bought a cucumber." All this results in virtually everything being sexualized. Man buys a sports car? He's compensating. Woman wears too much makeup? She's attention seeking. Men wears a lot of flashy things? He's peacocking. Woman wearing shorts and a shirt that doesn't cover her stomach? She's down to f*ck.
Or... he likes sports cars. She's still learning how to put on makeup. He just likes accessories. And it's f*cking hot where that woman lives.
And because the vast amounts of English speakers on the internet are from America and having lived in the US as a cis male, I need to say this. Yes, women definitely do get the short end of the stick in terms of social stigma and possible demonization and social shunning from the ambiguity and connotation of language. Like my sister and I had VERY different experiences and we're only 3 years apart in age. But this type of thing is bad for any and all genders and peoples and it's contributing to toxic masculinity and femininity. Like, this is how you get the "Have sex with a man to prove to yourself that not gay" line of thinking. And also, "She wears makeup, she must be a witch!" type of thinking (which, I think is going to make a come back pretty soon with the way people are talking).
And, to any single woman out there. If a guy blatantly and unabashedly disregards your needs and desires to be treated like a person with feeling and needs, run. There are plenty of guys out there. Find someone that wants to walk close to you because they like to. Wants to feed you tasty food because they like seeing the joy on your face. Wants to be around you because they like your presence. Just remember that guys like that aren't usually the one with a chiseled boy or a flashy cars because that's not their priority.
@@sleepingkirby It's a context thing and sure for some places they wouldn't be able to tell, but for places who use it they can recognize the context in which changes the meaning of the phrase. And as for your opinion on American language, I'll remind you of two things, one, English is hardly the most confusing language, Swedish has far far more words and phrases with ambiguous meanings that depend on context, not only that but even if it's not common I'm sure every language has some ambiguous language in one form or another. Two: America is known as a mixing pot for a reason. Yeah, we have hella racism problems, but ultimately we are chock full of many different types of people. Louisiana has an entirely different /dialect/. Our language kind of needs to be free range to accommodate that. We can't hold rigid language qualifications when determining the language of hundreds of different cultures. Yes, it's confusing, but it's not a flaw.
"Why are you talking to her?" Spoken calmly, is taken literally. "Why are you talking to her?" Spoken angrily is taken to mean flirting, barring another reason the person might be mad about it. It's the tone and context. In this sentence, the context makes it mean flirting, it's not until the second line that changes that context to be taken literally.
This does not mean all talking is then considered flirting. The two contexts make them mean two different things. Think of it like lead and lead. I lead the ducks. I need pencil lead. Different context, different meaning.
Whether the person or the partner starts it, if they are flirting, the partner is the problem. That's someone cheating on you, you should be more angry at them then the one who's flirting with them. Yes, if the person knows you two are together and decides to flirt, they are also at fault, but the wrong that has been done to you comes mostly from the partner.
I will concede it is ambiguous whether they mean both parties are flirting or just the one, but as the phrase usually means both, and if there was no context that points otherwise, it would mean both.
These things you list are a part of culture. They are social customs that the people within the culture know and use. Phrases, metaphors, and even the way people present each other, are all tied to culture. Are they all good? No, and good people do try to change things if they aren't. The assumption on a person's sex life based on appearances is one of those, I agree. But regardless, things like these are natural to the human race and are everywhere, even if you're so used to it you don't notice until you go somewhere with different customs. "They slept together" means to fuck, "They slept in the same bed for the night" or "they fell asleep in the same bed" means it literally. It's the context, the tone, the way you say it, and every single language has these. It's said that half of communication is in body language and tone, not words. Languages have quirks, they change, they get mixed up, it's what they do. Americans are good at flowing with a constant rapid change and keeping up because that's a part of our culture.
I think you've gotten off point here, the point was that, taking away the context of the second line, the first would be read as "if your man is flirting with another woman, he's the problem" and we don't specify every single little detail so she's not going to say "he's most of the problem" because that can be assumed.
As for social stigmas and how they come out as language: one, yes, out language can be cruel, a good example is the existence of slurs. But "if a woman wears make up she's a witch or a slut" is an idea, not an quirk of our language. We just use the language to convey the idea as that is what language is for.
@@sleepingkirby also you got so close to saying "well yes, but actually no" and that crushed my soul a little bit. Such a missed opportunity.
So I looked up and read the whole thing at 4:14 and holy fuck. The dude thinks he’s “allowed” to talk like a slave plantation owner and has a “black pass” (whatever tf that means) since his wife is black. The woman literally mentioned having to fake being asleep just to avoid intimacy because he made fun of her and told her she was “too sensitive” when she told him to stop and said she didn’t like it. Heartbreaking.

@@dianeb-r8512 That's absolutely why it's like that. English grammar has a lot of oddities because at various points in time people tried to make it more like French or Latin.

When a cat bites you like that - where it doesn't quite break the skin, but you definitely feel it - it's telling you something important.
Cats' communicate 99% inaudibly; they act out, not quite miming, to convey info.
Cats, being small & territorial, can be vulnerable to larger predators and territorial rivals - and they know it.
Considering how big humans are to them, it takes a lot to trust us - and trust is everything to a cat.
Ever see a cat do a slow eyeblink at you? It's telling you it trusts you by closing it's eyes - you could attack while it's not able to see you, but it trusts you not to.
Same thing with baring it's stomach - it's showing trust: that you won't attack it's soft belly to hurt or kill it.
Which is why a cat attacks those that rub their bellies when they do this - they trusted that person but had their belly attacked anyway.
Having a cat give you love bites is one of the highest regards they'll give: they're telling you that not only do they trust you, but they know you trust them - because, sure, they could bite the fuck out of you,... But they don't, they just bite a little to show you.
That's a tribal animal telling another tribal animal it recognizes a bond between them.
So, yeah, that cat loved you.
they do also bite as a way of telling you to leave them alone.
That explains why my cat purred when I gently nommed on her ear with my lips. She would always nip us, and we never knew why, so I just 'bit' her back
My cat is roughly 19 years old and she gives us Love bites still,,, it's just in her old age, she isn't as gentle as previously and it low key hurts 😹 but you can't be mad at her because she's just trying to show love
Aw... I didn’t actually know a lot of these facts. I was playing with my friends cat and he rolled over onto his belly, and so I saw this as a sign that he wanted tummy rubs, I felt really bad when he tried to scratch me.

@@maryhodge5595 Ask the asexuals, they might have some.
I just "love" how so many people automatically assume that single moms somehow drove the man away.
My sister was a widow. But I guess she was actually just a figment of my imagination. As was every other widow I have ever known.
Dude. Just say, "I don't like children who aren't my own." That will weed out all the single mothers AND all the women who are infertile, but want to adopt.
Yeah- like "I would like to have my own biological children" is an okay thing to say, but not when you act as if every single mother was dying to date him and have him neglect her kids
I told my step mom I didn't understand why people would mistreat their step kids because they aren't their biological kids and said that if you weren't gonna be nice to the kids or didn't want kids just don't be in a relationship with a single parent. She agreed and said you should just be nice to kids in general, especially if they're your partners. If I'm ever a step mom, I'll basically ignore the fact that they're not my biological kids.
My parents are divorced but my mom is still the best mom she can be.
All the stuff she's done for me over the years of my life she didn't need my dad to help with and same with him.
They are both single parents and make time to be with not only their now adult children but their grand daughter as well.
My mom may be 3000 miles away but at least she's apart of my niece's life.
My sister is a single parent not by choice but because the father is A:Dead and B:denied my niece's existence.
My niece is better off without a father like that.
When I had an online dating profile, I said I wasn't interested in divorced dads. Not because I had some moral issue or thought they were less than, I just didn't want to be the step mom in a family. I didn't want to be one of three/four parents making decisions for tiny humans that I didn't help make. Too much pressure.
All that said, I can't fathom someone saying "obviously you suck if you can't keep a spouse". That's WAY reaching and super prejudiced.
I don't know. I want children with half my gene code screams eugenics to me.
It feels kinda gross.
"If your boyfriend is blonde, that's your girlfriend"
Tell that to THOR, Beefhead!
It’s a literary joke... -e at the end of blond means it’s indicating feminine. Just like with fiancé versus fiancée
The Thor of mythology is actually a ginger, but I stand by your original comment as well. I believe Chris Hemsworth would like to have a word
@@icarusgotooclose agreed
well, see, one problem, thor is a redhead
however chris hemsworth is pretty much a god in his own right
For the people confused about “If your boyfriend is blonde, that’s your girlfriend,” it’s actually a very clever linguistic joke. “Blond” without the e is used to refer to men, “blonde” with the e is used to refer to women. OP is gently making fun of the people that spell it wrong. I’m an English major so I thought I could spread some knowledge! Have a nice day 😊 /gen

Okay- Let me make sure I got this right.
- Marriage is not about trust, love, and support. It's about being a butt to your partner.
- When someone cheats on you, it's bad. Unless the person who cheated on you is a girl. Then it's the guy's fault.
- Instead of having a conversation about things that upset you, break something that belongs to the other person.
This is good to know- the straights are not okay.
The straights are very not okay.
@@SatansSilliestCreation except OT he is okay
Let me correct you on something - if your partner cheats on you, it's your fault, regardless of gender. I've seen a lot of posts that said, "if your man cheats on you, that means you failed him as a woman".
I have nightmares about marrying a straight vanilla guy... They sound almost as dangerous as straight vanilla girls but with less boobs...
When I present feminine I specifically don't shake hands with people because my sword hand is never empty, I stay armed.
Something I caught as a writer. Blonde with an "e" at the end indicates a woman while Blond without the "e" indicates a man! So I think it could be a literary joke.

Okay I think I figured out the cat thing:
Owning an animal that only wants hugs and affection = manly.
Willingly keeping an animal that regularly amuses itself by actively trying to kill you = unmanly.
Cat scratches? Oh you mean my battle scars?
Cats are a good lesson in consent, if they don’t want to be cuddled they will let you know! That’s why some men don’t like cats. (Notice I said SOME men, not all. That’s for all you “not all men” people out there).
Cats love language is biting though. And cats are very playful and have sharp nails especially as kittens. That's why cat ownership requires a little bit more strength😂
@@celestexo1999 more defense, not more strength. Dogs are alot stronger than cats on average. Not exactly fair considering the height difference but still.

I love how he talks about the cis/straights as a separate group to himself because we all know he's an honorary queer
The blonde one might be because:
blonde = female
blond = male
But yeah, it isn’t really used like this anymore and everyone just uses blonde for both genders nowadays.
THERE WAS EVER A E AT THE END?! man I really am a dumb ass
Until very recently I was somehow entirely unaware of the -e suffix for blond. I've always just used blond.
That was my take. The poster was being a spelling jerk.
Fiancé and fiancée is another pair of words that add an “e” for the ladies. Language is weird.
@@blackcatmylove3483 It’s probably because of french
Yeah it’s from French. Same as blond(e)
I always find it funny when a streight friend recognizes I am lesbian and then says "I do not have anything agains that, but please don't smooch in front of me" and then proceeds to make out with his girlfriend basically right in front of my eyes. I always want to reply "I have nothing against straights either bur please do not show your affection towards each other in front of me." and then procced to make out with my girlfriend.
Then I realize that this would just lead to two couples making out.
There hypocrisy from people is horrible
That’d be hilarious tbh
Two couples making out, I see that as a win
obviously they are not your friend. If you have to censor yourself that much because the sheer fact you have a different sexuality is OFFENSIVE to them, they are not your friend and either need to be straightened out (pardon the accidental pun) or should be removed from your life.
Honestly that's the best case scenario
In case you are curious, a Tomahawk is a type of steak. Its a Ribeye steak that is still on the bone, so it looks like a little axe made of meat. A 'Golden Tomahawk' I presume is like covered in gold leaf and super ostentatious...

Oh btw im pretty sure the receipt with the steak was from a mr beast video and they were the ones who took the photo and made that as a joke, if im wrong.... the dude from the post is crazy :D
@@rahafabbasi802 youtube didn't like even my edited link so: sadly it's a real place and the celebrity chef/owner has 15 of these restaurants what the hecccc
If people could just stop throwing gold leaf on/in stuff to jack up the price by a factor of three, that would be awesome. Of course a tomahawk steak is going to be more expensive than a deboned steak. Just charge whatever you need for the basic one and stop making skill look pretentious.
Mr. Beast ate one I think in an eating expensive food video
conclusion:
some straights are okay
some arent.
also please if your partner has the opposite gender coming up and talking to them no one is the problem, its okay for them to be friends
I think the "If your man is blonde" is a joke bashing the English language, as it would be blond if they're talking about a man instead of blonde
That makes much more sense tbh
It depends. In the US, "blond" & "blonde" are used interchangeably, with "blond" being used more widely regardless of the subject's gender.
I'd like to think it's a literary pun like you suggested, but seeing some of the other posts on this sub...I'm hesitant to do so.
What would that meake me?
I would agree except that blond and blonde are French in origin. Hence why it doesn't make sense in English anyways. Blonde is feminine and Blond is masculine I believe.
English is an amalgamation of languages and still doesn't make sense though.
But it makes sense that Blond is widely considered the go to in English because English doesn't use alot of specific gendered words, like Blond and Blonde.

Seriously. I honestly think that part of the reason it's gained so much traction in the last couple decades is because they started calling anything left of "hunting poor people for sport" Communism.

I have a “straights being ok” story. One of my closest friends is cishet, I love her dearly but in the beginning of our friendship it was clear she didn’t understand or really feel too comfy with different sexualities or gender identities. But after about a year of being around me and the hoard of gay I attract, she’s really supportive and accepting. She’s completely comfortable making and being around lgbht jokes and humour, and she took the time to practice our friends name and pronounce as well as correcting herself when she missgendered them.
That's honestly so sweet. My cousin isn't really familiar with genders and sexualities but she accepted me as soon as I came out, and she always pays attention and tries to educate herself. She's generally a very chill, peaceful person but if anyone says something biphobic to me she'd definitely throw hands. God she's one of my best friends and I'm thankful for her every day. I'm really glad you have a good support system around you!
My brother really didn’t know much about gay stuff when I came out, but luckily he was really accepting and I’m slowly but surely educating him on LGBTQ+ issues.

I don't understand gender reveal parties. Some people defend them by saying it's a celebration for the future parents, but so is a baby shower. Why don't you just have a baby shower? As far as I know, baby shower celebrations haven't caused any serious injuries or wildfires.
yeah, they can just include the gender reveal in the baby shower!
An idea I have: they should have someone who knows the gender of the baby make a cupcake and have everyone cover their eyes before bringing it out, then they can say "OKAY OPEN YOUR EYES EVERYONE!" and show everyone the cupcake
Yeah I think they're very dumb in general because a baby shower can also be a gender reveal party. My aunt didn't tell us the gender of her kid until the baby shower and it was perfectly fine. Some people bought gender neutral gifts like certain toys, diapers, bottles ect. but she was fine if they bought stuff later instead and she got alot of gifts at the baby shower already.
Also, it's often the case that they're wrong about the gender/sex. It's surprisingly common for a baby to be born the opposite sex.
(Also, "gender reveal" is a case of people insisting that sex=gender, and we see how often THAT goes wrong as well!)
Gender reveal parties are one of those things I'm expecting we'll look back on in the 2030s and think, "God, what was wrong with us as a society?!"
"Being too soft": in school we talked with everyone about what the "ideal man or woman" would be. Most of the class found that men are expected to be/feel little emotions! It was honestly sad that people in this world think that just because someone is a man, that they have to be a complete emotionless rock of a person. The whole "being too soft" thing that someone said on this Reddit post is absolute GARBAGE! MEN CAN FEEL EMOTION! ARE YOU OKAY IF YOU DONT EXPERIENCE EMOTION?! HECK

I ACTUALLY HAVE A THEORY FOR WHY BACK-PATTING HUGS EXIST!
I had to wear a chest-to-pelvis, hard plastic back brace for 6 months and I was incredibly touch-starved because I couldn't feel the hugs. But after hugging my dad (who will literally SLAP your back when you hug him), I realised that must be the only way you can feel a hug through armour! So much like how a handshake originally existed to show that your sword hand is empty, back-patting hugs still exist because that was the only way soldiers/knights could show their affection through their armour and the tradition continued!
(Hug-centric historians please feel free to confirm or correct my theory)
This… makes sense. Not a historian, just someone who’s worn a backpack plenty of times, and yes, you can feel a hard back pat through a bag or armour, or at least hear it. It’s the reassurance of human contact in a way that also gets around the _massive_ ridge in the front of breastplates that were designed to deflect swords and arrows with extra space to slow them down if they broke through the plate while allowing for arm motion.
Eh... no.
There were more touchy times after body armors were donned.

I was curious about the "Your Wife Is Not Your Best Friend And Thinking She Is Will Kill Your Marriage" article, so I looked it up, and although it's a clickbaity title and not amazingly well-written, it's nowhere near as bad as the title looks. Basically, it talks about how due to the financial and housing interdependence, the expectations on spouses and friends are different. It gives the example of someone quitting their job to go do something else and says that their friends should be mostly supporting their decision, whereas their spouse has more right and maybe obligation to be questioning it because of how it affects both of them, and that putting those expectations you have of your friends on your spouse can be unreasonable and harmful.
That's fair, but that's also a fairly limited view of friendship. Your partner can still be your best friend as long as you also consider that they're you're life partner and your decisions affect them in a way that would be different for a best friend you don't live with. People also sometimes live long term with solely platonic best friends, so in that case you would also have to address decisions in a similar this-affects-us-both way.
@@Lisa_Flowers Yeah, absolutely. I definitely don't agree fully with the article. And there are definitely relationships that blur some of the traditional lines between the relationship types (including the example of totally platonic best friends who share finances and live together long-term). I think it's totally fair to criticize it for being overly traditional and heteronormative.
But it's certainly less bad than it sounds, and the snipping of it's headline out of context and memifying it as the straights not being okay seems deceptive and possibly deliberately so (by whomever made the meme, not by OT).
That said, whoever wrote the headline was arguably angling for that to happen, so maybe the criticism _does_ lie primarily on the article.

I though that was nonsense but once I though about it literally none of the Black people I know or have known own cats. And they're never portrayed as cat owners in the media or entertainment. My mind was blown because I had never noticed it before.

That was 3 months ago. I can't STOP seeing Black people with their cats now. It's like the Universe and the Cat Distribution System colluded to make up for a lifetime of not getting to experience this most dynamic of duos, lol
