You’re allowed to have emotions, and as a kid they’re hard to mask or deal with. So letting your kid feel them and modeling how to deal with them is the right way to let them learn, rather than telling them they can’t be angry and just having them feel guilty for their “wrong” emotions.

Yeah, I remember feeling like it was weird, but both of those sound absolutely fine to me now.

I also would never balk at “female” as an adjective in those cases, nor assume the speaker was being misogynist.

Woman as an adjective is picking up in my circles and podcasts I listen to. Woman scientist, woman entrepreneur. It may have sounded weird initially, but I’ve gotten over it and I suspect it will develop over time to be completely normal.

I wouldn’t really compare it to the male/man counterpart, because men aren’t demeaned by being called “male” regularly.

My wife calls these her “high games”:

• Donut county
• Katamari
• Unpacking
• Luna’s fishing garden

Mine:

• Goat Simulator
• Gorillaz Geep flash game (I could play this for hours and there is no goal, just feels like driving in GTA without consequence)
• Starstruck Vagabond

Not trying to stoke the flames here, but genuinely curious what phenomenon the meme is pointing too? Again, not trying to come from a place of concern trolling or anything. Please don’t bully me~~~

Joke’s on you, I have too much climate anxiety to throw anything out. I practically wash my toilet paper rather than flushing it.
