villasv , to Men's Liberation in The Will To Change Men, Masculinity, And Love By bell hooks

Good book. Surprisingly sympathetic to men, which makes the whole thing a lot more palatable to the target audience.

Great recommendation.

The “another” law in question

Graduated driving licences could see a minimum supervised learning period, curfews and a limit to the number of passengers new drivers can carry.

Of course reckless drivers who were going to drive drunk won’t respect these either, but also these are laws that can dissuade parents from giving/lending their cars. Surprisingly a bunch of parents are oblivious to their kids drinking and driving patterns, but a blanket ruling like this might help.

villasv , to Men's Liberation in Dangerous, sexist rules of how to be a man are still alive for many

Never have I ever seen so many pickup trucks and SUV ads as I’m seeing today. Ford, built tough or something. Big truck is adventurous. Big truck is barbecue with a big block of meat. Ugh, disgusting.

villasv , to Men's Liberation in A muscle-building obsession in boys: What to know and do - Harvard Health

To this day I’d still say muscle building is the bulk of my subconscious motivation to hit the gym. My Physio appreciates the commitment because I need to take care of my knees, but it hits home that I’ve been worried about being lean and muscular since a pre teen.

I vividly remember one judo class when I was sparring with one of the few girls in class, and while we were the same size, she was more experienced (two belts up). Mid spar, she commented how strong my grip and distance control was, proceeded to flap open my kimono, the commented “you still do need to turn it up in the gym though”. ding ding ding new core memory just formed lmao

I think that was the first time my body was so openly judged to my face, and it was pretty much about the looks since we just stablished that the strength was there

villasv , to Men's Liberation in Why do hardly any straight men write about sex and dating? | Imogen West-Knights

What would I even be writing about without publicly exposing my personal life intimate details (don’t want to) or that hasn’t been said ad nauseam by better and more known writers at this point? What’s a sensible sex and dating column that doesn’t simply reduce into the usual “be empathetic, respect other’s space and boundaries, open dialog, know yourself, seek therapy, etc”?

villasv , to U.S. News in Vehicles with higher, vertical front ends raise risks for pedestrians

Who would have thought that vehicles designed to resemble armoured tanks are not a societal net positive when you think of everyone who is outside the metal box

villasv , to U.S. News in Unusual collaboration: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Marjorie Taylor Greene unite in push to free Julian Assange

lol did not see that coming, MTG taking Assange’s side, is the goal to smear Biden as weak a year from now? Who knows what’s inside that strange brain
