1·1 day agoYou chose to tell the joke the way you did. I hear lots of bad jokes I don’t repeat.
Love it when people respond to say they don’t care, and continue to defend themselves. Audience and context are important in writing and telling jokes, a good comedian doesn’t blame their audience for not laughing.
I don’t know know what supporting jesuits has to do with not being able to tell a joke.
9·1 day agoIf any other elective medical procedure had a 1% chance of extreme regret, it would be considered psychologically risky, in addition to the chance of complications.
Do we know the actual numbers for how men feel about the procedure? I think that’s important if we’re debating this on the merits of joy/regret.
I couldn’t find any good sources that surveyed adult men on their parents’ circumcision choice.
It’s a little different, for most women the clit is still protected by the labia and isn’t being rubbed all day long, but I absolutely get your meaning.
Clittoral hood reductions are a thing but they’re considered cosmetic. There isn’t a lot of information on health impact because it’s never been a routine medical procedure. That said, some women do get it done because of over-stimulation from clothes because the hood is sensitive, or, inversely, to increase sensation on the clitoris.
It’s weird that the hygeine debate hasn’t come up with girls as much as boys, though. In changing babies I find girls parts marginally more difficult to “clean out.”
Still, if that procedure ever became popular for girls I would be just as much against it as I am male circumcision.
As I understand it, and have read in literature, a reconstructed foreskin doesn’t have the same sensitivity of a natural one.
But you’re right, foreskin construction/reconstruction is a thing.
Can you describe it here in the context of a banana in a stocking or would that still be NSFW?
I’m committed to ongoing self improvement, I would like to know for research purposes.
There are a number of men who are upset about it, they’ve formed advocacy groups and some use therapies and procedures to regrow foreskin.

For some balance, this isn’t very informative, but it does fairly frame the debate:
Here’s the comment string.
I can see why the mod was pissed. You misunderstood the community and were an asshole to the mod about it.
And yet I’m still saying there is historical context for thinking the joke is misogynist.
Didn’t say that it is, didn’t say it’s intended to be (see: “read into”,) but that there is context for believing it is.
There isn’t a historical context for thinking a joke about hitting a woman is misogynist?
Can’t imagine why they thought a joke about a religious figure backhanding an outspoken woman to shut her up could be misogynist. There’s certainly no historical context for thinking that.
I’m a chick, responding because you mentioned some women are grossed out by intact dicks.
Every penis is different in its own weird way so whether there’s foreskin or not is just an extra thing. Size/shape/foreskin/existence doesn’t affect how I think about the person.
Any person who thinks men ought to be mutilated to be attractive is lacking in empathy and judgment, and my entire friend group thinks the same thing.
Don’t misunderstand me, I’m not offended by this because it’s insulting to every demographic except Non-catholic MAGAts who don’t understand jokes.
I’m offended because it’s god-awful. And you told it bad. You did a bad job.
The most relevant politician you could think of was Hilary Clinton? This is an ancient joke with a hundred different versions of the Pope, the Dalai Llama, a nun, a sheik, all slapping political leaders. The only times it’s mildy funny are when it’s relevant and the slappee is openly religious.
I’m not here to police yours or your partner’s eating habits.
I saw the statement:
The texture and taste and… toxicity I guess, is fine for 36 hours. So if you cook it this morning then use it all before tomorrow evening.
And provided a counter point. I had to train cooks and dispell so many food and hygeine myths. Maybe I get a twitch when I read that kind of thing.
Ideally, rice should be cooled down within 1-2hrs and stored in the fridge. 12°C is balmy for bacteria.
2·2 days agoThey’re waiting for a supreme court decision at the moment and the fact this made it to the supreme Court says it’s not black and white.
Farms occasionally have leeway in how they manage avian flu, however, this may be a new strain that can cross over to people. Not that bird flu hasn’t been fucking terrible for bird populations over the last years, too. Toronto used to have crows.
According to the farm, only two dead ostriches were tested and the CFIA agents refused to test any live birds. Based on those tests, the farm is being ordered to destroy their entire live flock.
They tried to get an exemption because of the ostriches rare genomes and scientific merit, but since ostrich farming is new, all the applicable forms were for poultry and the CFIA wouldn’t make allowances. It looks more like a beurocratic mess than crazy farmers denying science.
If the cull were carried out, it would likely shut down the farm because their creditors will sieze any insurance money they get paid. And, this isn’t a meat farm, it’s a research farm. They’re probably trying to save the birds they can because it’s their only route to staying in business.
I can’t speak to why they’ve garnered support from convoy people, but apparently animal rights groups and locals have joined their cause as well. I would like to know how the Tyee knows the majority of their supporters are convoy people.
Finally an interesting headline in Canadian news.
I used to live in the interior and castanet is great for all things okanagan. Their article has bit more detail here:
I meant that Jonesy is the weak male that Ripley physically and emotionally protects.
