I don't think that the mere act of reporting a crime is necessarily correlated with bravery; if anything it should be considered the norm/ expectation.First, you don't think people who are victims of violence are brave for speaking about that violence?
Not being able to have sex ever versus getting more sex than desired are opposite ends of the same spectrum, and they just happen to be correlated with gender. With either outcome, it is my understanding that there can be tremendous negative effects that are often very much comparable to one another, if not outright equivalent.Second, are these supposed to be comparable? A man not having sex = a woman being the victim of violence?
It's difficult to say. Though as far as net-effects/ outcomes are concerned, do you really think it's outside the realm of possibility for a person to experience severe emotional distress/ depression/ loneliness because no one is interested in them romantically and they'll likely never be able to have sex... ever?So is the pain awomanpersonwouldmight experience by going their entire lives without sex equal to the pain amanpersonwould havemight experience ifhethey wereviolentlyraped?
Careful now... even gullible people don't deserve to be victim blamed.Maybe like, don't sleep with people until you can be sure they aren't full of shit about stuff like that?

"In late 2009 and early 2010, in at least two separate incidents at bars in Boise, Idaho, a "plastic surgeon" named "Berlyn Aussieahshowna" approached two different women and offered them free breast exams. The women consented to the exam, and one even exposed her breasts to the “doctor†in the washroom."
Explain: how is my ego inflated?
So, giving advice on moral matters constitutes limiting another's freedom?
It is not clear to me how the conclusion follows from the premises.
My answer is to obey the Will of God, because God is able to foresee all consequences.
Jesus is my bitch.
I wonder what kind of response you would get if you put that on a T-shirt.
@<a href="https://www.typologycentral.com/forums/members/22257.html" target="_blank">Tater</a> I pity your soul.
Dunno, you really look like an archetypal possession here described by Jung. Keep your Wise Old Man in check maybe, for unconscious identification with an archetype is the basis of ego inflation.
You are not giving advice. Saying that something is a categorical imperative with the implication of an order, while also creating a perception of moral scorn while doing that, is not giving advice. If this is what you understand from "giving advice on moral matters", consult a therapist.
My answer is for everyone to follow their own Will, for there is nothing more godly.
Most of my arguments remain unanswered still, welp.
Essentially, the premise is that many people don't think non-marital sex is a sin and a lot of your posts come off as "moral judgement" of people who engage in those activities. People have their own guidelines for morality. Only 3-5% of people wait until marriage to have sex (and even in that subset, a good chunk seem to rush it in order to have sex). The funny thing is that there are about 70% of Americans who identify as Christians, so there seems to be a huge disparity.I'm sorry, I don't really understand what this means or how I'm doing it. Can you please provide further information?
I don't really know what I'm supposed to say here.
I suggested overcoming the desire for non-marital sex, i.e. lust, with the implication that such an action is a sin and thus destructive. The only scorn I think I've shown was directed towards Dep for something different. And yes I do think alerting people to sin constitutes advice. I don't know why I would need to see a therapist for that.
So apparently one is supposed to follow their own Will (I'll mention for my own knowledge that there's a funny irony here, but only I will get the reference, so don't worry), but I don't really know what the alternative is in your view, or what limits are to be placed on this, perhaps "follow your own Will, unless to interfere with another's Will, unless their Will is interfering with another's Will, while that person's Will is not interfering with another's Will". Well, if my own approach goes against your approach, I probably disagree with it, though I just don't get what you're saying.
What is this Will that a person is meant to follow? What are the limitations to be placed upon following it?
I found this interesting... a story about one of the prominent leaders of the "love can wait" purity movement, Josh Harris. He was very outspoken about how to stay pure for your future spouse and live in Godly ways, but about a month away, he separated from his wife and stepped down as pastor.

The ones that preach the loudest often have a reason of their own for doing so.
I know Peterson’s a creepy creep but do you think someone like him can help incels overcome their malaise and self loathing? Seems like a lot of them could benefit from a hard kick in the ass.
I think the issue is that they aren't really able to extrapolate what is useful and what isn't when it comes to advice, even good advice.

Granted it's Reddit but it's worth a read even if you do need eye bleach afterwards.
As one Tumblr user put it, “people taking virgin _____ and chad ________ memes completely serious on their face when the chad is supposed to be outrageously over the top and exaggerated for absurdist humor value is probably the only shit even funnier than virgin/chad memes.â€
Even Natalie thinks JP isn't entirely wrong when it comes to incels. I think the issue is that they aren't really able to extrapolate what is useful and what isn't when it comes to advice, even good advice.

Hey, a lot of Reddit sucks (even r/ChapoTraphouse kind of sucks... it's filled with tankie dipshits), but some of it is pretty good. I don't think I'm subscribed to any of the main subreddits.
I don't think it's quite the cesspool some think it is. There's some seedier communities there but most have been quarantined by now. If you avoid the political subreddits, there's actually a lot of great communities devoted to various hobbies and interests. I don't post but I often browse the subs for topics ranging from bass guitar to video games to philosophy. And of course the virgin/chad memes subreddit, but that's not an incel community, it's people who've transformed that meme into satire.
