Try not abandoning your responsibility for birth control. Wear a condom or get a vasectomy. On January 14 2013 06:27 Shady Sands wrote: ^^ hilarious username for this thread It's a hilarious username for existence. | ||

I mean there are people outside who kill other people, rob, rape, do 6546534 other bad things, if I got mad at every single one of them, I'd be insane by now. It's actually pretty cool she share's her methods, those with brains can learn a thing or two helpful to recognize bitches like her. So that after the first night we can end it with a promise to call. | ||

Even if you have proof of her actions? You can obviously dump her if it's not too late. Otherwise, well, you are probably screwed. In some areas women have too many rights and men not enough. Yeah well you can always wear a condom despite what she says, but when she figures you are not trusting her, relationship is likely over. May be for the good if she was a bitch, may be for the bad if she was nice and genuine girl and didn't lie about pills. | ||

Because you are generalizing your individual life experience to the whole of mankind in a sweeping manner and that's what you do when you're young. If you're older, you should know better. I just want to know where you're at so I have some context to your writing. Similar to knowing that Vonnegut survived Dresden or that Hunter S. Thompson did a shit ton of drugs. Your writing is decent stylistically (although it has a lot of youthful flair to it, too--like, you know where to put the insight in your writing but your insight itself is a little weak, so you cover it with style and it fools people) but your topic matter is very... well, bitter. So, again, how old are you? | ||

Also, the language which you use in your writing is very cocky and condescending ("kiddo"). It makes us really wonder how old you are to be telling us how life is when I think many of us may actually be older and have more life experience than you. If you could pull back on the flair and replace it with more of a "in my experience" type of style then you'd have a lot less of these types of questions--but if you did that, what would you have in the piece? There would be nothing there worth saying. As it stands, this piece is pure style and no substance. (If you're gonna be a writer, you're gonna get your writing torn apart by other people. Don't get me wrong; I wish you well in life and I hope you succeed in all of your endeavors. This is part of the tempering process if you're going to be a writer worth anything  .) | ||

Northern and Western Europe-->tilted towards the woman. East/west coasts of America? towards the woman. Texas + US south? Tilted towards the man. Midwest? Neutral. Asia-Pacific? Towards the man. India and Arab states? Heavily towards the man. | ||

Young people who pretend to be wise to the ways of the world are mostly just cynics" | ||

Basically every other part is slated towards men. | ||
