Baggage thread

You list your good qualities as they relate to a relationship
then your perceived or acknowledged negative qualities as small, medium and large. People can comment on what's a deal killer or not.

>age/gender/sexuality
40/M/bi-ish

>good stuff
Confident without being overbearing/controlling. Not insecure. (Anymore)
Happy and chill, at peace, so to speak. Live and let live. Reasonable, even-tempered.
I feel like I have my shit together emotionally, domestically, professionally, and financially.
Not a cheater, ever. Not the jealous type at all, but that doesn't mean I tolerate dishonesty.
Not fugly. Drug and disease free. Non-smoker, etc

>small
Not great at dealing with the emotional problems of others. Not a lack of empathy, but it puts me in a bad place if exposed for long periods of time.
I need to work to be social, so I am, but not by nature.
Need personal space at least some time everyday, especially first thing in the morning. Gotta get my coffee before I can handle words, coming or going.
Have 2 cats

>medium
Being 40.
I respond poorly to authority and restraint. No *desire* to get married. Marriage would be doable if practical.
Definitely do not want kids. Probably getting a vasectomy this year. I've dated women with grown kids though.
I don't sleep well with other people in the bed.. Love to cuddle but not while trying to sleep. I cannot shut my brain off if someone is touching me/moving around a lot. I snore sometimes.
I dislike dogs intensely. I don't hate them, I don't want to harm them or see them harmed. I just do not want any dog of any kind in my personal space.

>large
Short (5'5")
Small cock, functional, but small.
Overweight but not super obese, just over the line. But I swing 20-25 lbs back and forth. Thinner and healthier when in a relationship with a motivator (and cook desu)
Submissive in bed. No actual BDSM, dress-up, humil or role-playing. Strap-ons and aggressiveness, basically, but not exclusively.

>good stuff
Confident. Intelligent. Very fit and healthy. Thoughtful and considerate. Don't take inappropriate shit from anyone. Good looking. Emotionally stable. Good hygiene. Genetically high-quality. Big penis (>8" x >5"). Love most aspects of sex. Independent. Good leader. Good at letting others lead when it's more appropriate. Honest. Loyal. Genuine. Good problem solver. Cuddle master. Amazing cook. Interesting hobbies/interests. Adaptable. Outdoorsy. Unique taste in music.

>small
5'10". Career focused. Emotionally stable to fault. Honest to fault. Bored with people easily. Odd and firm views of the value of human life and its relativity to other life. Introspective, often taken as introversion. Do not handle alcohol well. Allergic to soy. Actual demisexual. Sexually pretty vanilla, mostly because I am always totally satisfied by sex with someone I love. Outdoorsy. Unique taste in music. Eat more than seems possible. Don't wear deodorant.

>medium
Want to adopt 1 kid and have 1 kid. Don't take inappropriate shit from *anyone* (as in, confrontational). Literalist. Won't let go of a problem until it is resolved. Have a dominating personality (as in people I associate with tend to start acting like me).

>large
Demand interactive equality and financial equity in relationship. Demand partner be able to take care of them self (health and otherwise). Trust issues, because only 2 gfs ever cheated on, lied to, and manipulated me to my severe detriment.

>medium
I smoke a pack a week
I like liquor
I get violent sometimes

>large
I've given up on anyone caring about me which is alright because I'll find happiness in the other things in life. To elaborate no family caring, my parents did nothing but push me to succeed. Constant negative reinforcement, no matter how well I did, they always told me I was shit and X family's kid was better. Forced me to be a shutin, this isn't some sort of excuse, I mean they literally locked me in my room, told me I better do well in school or else. Wasn't allowed to have friends, goes without saying wasn't allowed to date, I couldn't even cope with media, TV and computer use was limited to 1 hour a week.

No romantic caring. Once I was able to date, every single girl I've dated has been selfish, vapid, and self absorbed. There's probably going to be two cookie cutter responses which I'll address. The first goes, everyone is selfish, you are too, stop complaining. It's true that people are selfish and that's fine with random people but if you're in a relationship, there should be mutual caring, I always pulled my weight and really cared about them, they never reciprocated. They always said they cared and put on an act but the truth is easy to see after a while. The second goes, where are you finding these girls, it must be you, etc. The picture sums it up, every single girl I've met has said she couldn't believe how bad the past girls were, how could anyone be like that, where am I finding these girls, etc. Then after I got closer to them, they turned out to be the exact same.

I don't wear deodorant but that's not a bad thing. I don't know if it's a clean diet or genetics, as long I shower once a day, I don't have any odor. I'll have some of that salty skin smell by the end of the day but that's not noticeable even close up let alone through clothes.
>>
>>24893023
I dislike the way it feels in my armpit hair and the way it smells, I actually like the way I smell without it, and only very infrequently (<10 people in my life since I stopped wearing it like 8 years ago) does anyone actually communicate to me that I smell bad, or even at all.

I see no net benefit to wearing it.
>>
>>24893051
You can shave your armpit hair. If you're truly have a dominating personality, you won't care if anyone thinks it's gay and will do whatever is best for yourself. Baking soda is a good deodorant alternative. Even though I don't need deodorant, something is needed to reduce odor if you want to get multiple wears out of the same shirt. Multiple wears isn't to be gross, it's that ironing dress shirts is a pain, so it's best to get as many wears out of one before a wash as possible.
>>
>>24893068
I don't like wearing it and I'm not concerned with whether or not other people think it's gross - which is why I don't wear it. I also like my armpit hair and have no intentions of shaving it. So despite that practically what I do diverges from what you suggest (shaving my armpits) it still exists in line with your assessment of what a dominating personality would do (which is, do "what's 'best' for me, and whatever to the dissenters".

Even if I did shave my pits, though, I wouldn't be concerned if people started thinking I'm gay. It wouldn't change the fact that I am heterosexual, nor would it change the interpretations of the people who have interacted or will interact with me in that regard.

Appreciate the little things in life. Easy to talk to, very understanding. Kind, compassionate, lot of love to give. Can be pretty sweet and romantic. Love company. Love trying new things. Intelligent, love all levels of discussion from casual to deep. Have plenty of things I like doing even if I don't always have the time, money, or energy. Kinda creative. Have a nice voice. Good sense of humor, I like making people laugh. I keep my facial and body hair well maintained. Great at eating pussy. Decent sized dick with good girth, can go for hours. High sex drive. Ideal date night would be snuggling on a picnic blanket under the stars on a warm summer night, with music and weed. Don't really like alcohol, just a personal preference.

>small
5'9", 130lbs, slender nerd body type. (Tight stomach though.) Metabolism keeps me small. I smoke weed but I don't smell like it all the time or anything. Disorganized. Teeth aren't great, but clean. Looks wise I'd say I'm kinda niche. I've had a few people think I'm real hot but I think the vast majority wouldn't think much of me.

>medium
Anxiety, don't like big groups. Like the idea of marriage and kids but not focused on it. Not very good at social anything. Anger issues, can get loud and intimidating, but I don't get violent. Bad sleep habits but I still get to work on time. Weak sense of self worth and self esteem. Can get kinda clingy at times, other times I need more space. Sometimes the most random little things will piss me off. Care too much about some things, too little about others.Tend to give up on things too easily when frustrated.

>large
Poor, depend on bus service to get to work. Eccentric. Somewhat unstable. Had a shitty empty childhood, dad didn't love me, etc, often haunted by the past. Just got out of a one year relationship, she kept the apartment, staying with family while I build my savings back up. Tend to swing between depressive and manic.

Otherwise, are you fun? Like if you're doing something with someone, do you generally enjoy activities more and retain interest?

What kind of stuff are you picky about?

Do you work out and stuff?
>>
>>24896423
I have an autoimmune disease. I was diagnosed with it when I was a child, it sucked growing up but now it is mostly under control. I can do pretty much everything I want, but I get tired easily and I get sick a lot.

I don't think I'm too bad to be around. I do get bored halfway through stuff even if I do those with someone else, but I try to not act like a bitchy kid and stay interested out of respect for people who do it with me.

I'm picky about everything but food. Clothes and make up, objects, media.
I am absolutely picky about people, too - especially when it comes to choosing a partner. I don't like anybody.
I can't go halfway, I either get obsessed over something or don't like it at all.

And yes, I work out, moderately - I run when the weather is decent, I go swimming, I like hiking, I go kayaking with my mom (but that's mostly for her, I kind of dislike it).


What do you do? What's your favourite thing to cook?
>>
>>24896480

Humm, you sound like youre quiet or stoic in general. Active and outdoorsy. You seem like good people! And you arent' picky, you just know what you like! That's what i always say. i think thats mostly a good quality in others.

I'm a dog walker for a living. For now its treating me well enough. its fun and pretty easy and i get to travel around the area and meet neat peeps, all without actually having to walk dogs of leashes around the city which im sure would be a nightmare job.

my favorite things to make are probably cinnamon raisin oatmeal bread, peanut butter cookies, and anything chicken. I love the smell of chicken roasting.

That is interesting. Not necessarily a deal killer but it seems like a LOT of women I meet have serious health issues. Odd. Maybe I've just dated a lot of broken women.

This could likely be a deal killer eventually. I have some experience with this and it's one of the most trying things I've ever had to deal with.

>>24896536
I'm pretty quiet, you're right. I wish I was a bit more stoic :P
Thank you anyway, you seem like a good person too.

>And you arent' picky, you just know what you like!
It's terrible tho! Because I reject people a lot, I hate 90% of the gifts people make me (and I am not even good at lying about it), and I'm just a huge fucking bitch.

Cinnamon raisin oatmeal bread sounds so fucking tasty, huge fan of cinnamon. And moderately healthy. Give me the recipe!

>>24896615
>I'd prefer someone who is a bit more outgoing than me because two introverts seem to feed off of each other but it's not huge
I actually cannot date extroverts, it's annoying as fuck. Introverts are cool, as long as they're not the socially awkward kind.

>That's very vauge. Could be a problem could not be. Depends on how it manifests itself.
I have to make a conscious effort to be empathetic. It's not natural to me. So if I'm pissed, tired, annoyed or just uninterested I don't manage to understand people's feeling, and I can be really insensitive.

Both my mental and physical health are under control, I rarely (if ever) have to deal with symptoms anymore. But yeah, dealing with depressed people isn't easy at all.
>>
>>24896649
>I have to make a conscious effort to be empathetic

I literally don't have empathy. That's what I meant when I said "emotionally stable to fault". People get pissed if I don't apologize and feel bad when bad stuff (that has literally nothing to do with me) happens to them. Why the hell would I apologize that your tortoise died? I'm fucking 400mi away, clearly I didn't do it! I also keep all of my other emotions pretty well under check, so people think of me as a robot, sort of.

I don't see a problem with it, though - it prevents me from making decisions based on my feelings when to do so would be inappropriate.
>>
>>24896780
Have you looked into what it means to be a sociopath? Might give you some clarity. That whole "I'm better than most people because I am this way"thing can lead you down a dark path.
>>
>>24896780
I definitely do feel bad about not being empathetic. I don't want to hurt people's feelings inadvertently.
Empathy for me isn't something intuitive, natural but it is a conscious choice.
I have to break down people's emotions in my head and just try to understand what's going on with them. But I make a huge effort to be empathetic, understanding, and supportive, and shit like that.

It has some pros, for sure - I am great in stressing situations, I don't feel huge stress, I don't panic. But it's not the best, socially, especially in romantic relationships.
>>
>>24896784
Yah, I show some sociopathic tendencies. But if you think that I think I'm better than anyone because I lack empathy and keep my emotions in check, you're making a lot of unfounded assumptions that you have no justification to make.

Lacking empathy is only dangerous if you're violent or think problems can be solved with violence. Having strict emotional control tempers that danger even more because even were I violent I can stand back from a situation and recognize that the risk, and cost of consequence after investing with violence is greater than the payoff in essentially all circumstances.

>>24896792
I make a huge effort to be understanding (actually, imo, lack of empathy helps with this, because if you let someone else's emotions affect the way you perceive a situation you will be more likely to perceive it the same way they do... and thus only understand part of the problem, as opposed to the whole problem), and supportive, but I do not make an effort to be empathetic.

This goes both ways too. If I actually do get upset about something, I dislike it when people are empathetic towards me... if you want to help, help me solve the problem that has made me emotional... if I can't solve the problem, your seeing the problem from my perspective isn't going to help solve the problem.
>>
>>24896829
probability of failure*cost > probability of success*payoff
if true, then don't do the thing.

if you make every important decision in your life based on this you will be a successful person.

>>24896829
>But if you think that I think I'm better than anyone because I lack empathy and keep my emotions in check, you're making a lot of unfounded assumptions that you have no justification to make.

I suggested that it can lead to that

Based on some of what you said here:

>>24896780
>I don't see a problem with it, though - it prevents me from making decisions based on my feelings when to do so would be inappropriate.

It was a warning with a suggestion, really.
>>
>>24896829
Sometimes I just wish I had some comforting thing to say, or some kind, uplifting words.
I come off as really insensitive most of the time, and it makes me sad. I wish I was a bit better at "coddling" people, sometimes. I have this really annoying "fixer" approach to other people's life and I hate that about myself.

I do appreciate empathy, on the other hand. I don't think it helps me, but it makes me feel less lonely.
>>
>>24896840
Fair enough. Warning acknowledged, but unnecessary.

I have known that I am not dangerous to people or society for some time.

Just curious, though: how do you equate my not seeing a problem with lacking empathy to me thinking I'm better than other people?

Those sentiments are separated from one another by at least two degrees as far as I can tell.
>>
>>24896851
You can be encouraging without being empathetic. Hell you can even recognize that someone else's situation sucks without empathy. I wouldn't see your "fixer" approach as annoying. If I go to someone for help that's exactly what I want. Help me fix the problem, don't just agree with that it's a problem and feel my feelings... that's useless :P
>>
>>24896852
It's the thought process. Believing that a lack of empathy for other people is OK and that it gives you an advantage is decision making is what I was getting at.

Considering the things you do and the effect it can have on others is important. Even if you don't actually care because like it or not you are part of society.

I don't mean that it makes you dangerous. Being a sociopath and being a Psychopath are completely different. I get that.

It just fosters that, "there is me and the way I am, and then everyone else" mentality that can pull you away from other people and while you might not get lonely it will isolate you and push you further down the rabbit hole of "me vs. them". That can lead all kinds of places.
>>
>>24896863
Also meant to say that even "true" sociopaths can learn empathy even if they don't "feel" it.
>>
>>24896863
Ahhh, I see. You have misunderstood my world view then.

I think lacking empathy is a good thing because it allows me to solve problems (including problems that other people may have) more objectively. Emotional responses exacerbate problems more often than not; non-emotional responses are a better approach if your goal is actually to help.

It's not that I don't care about other people, it's that I care in a different way than most people do. It's also not that I think it gives me an advantage (because that implies a comparative to the situations of others) - again I'm not trying to be, and I don't think that I am "better" than other people, I think that my lacking empathy is a good thing because it allows me to be better (compared to *myself* in the otherwise) at doing actually functionally good and useful things, both for other people and purposes. Sometimes people's feelings get hurt, but that is a minuscule consequence compared to the relative good that the approach does.

Oversimplified, I see it as like being a professional "decision maker" and lacking a condition that would represent a functional conflict of interest, as opposed to possessing the condition, which is the norm.

An exacerbation of the "me v.s. them" mentality can indeed be a bad thing, but first the person has to fee it's "me v.s. them" - I don't feel that way. It's more like "me & them" and "their" approach isn't wrong (especially under the context of human needs) but it is more likely to lead to decisions based on more than just facts and reasoning.

I was on my phone yesterday so my id is going to be different. Anyway, I have no idea why you responded. you must not have seen the part where I said I give up. I give up means I give up, no more, no less. It's not a excuse to cry for attention. Did you also not see the part where I said every single girl I've met has acted like she was different then turned out to be the same? You're falling right into that pattern by thinking we would get along.

>>24896912
As an example, take national policy towards refugee succor: (again, oversimplified) emotionally-fueled responses to the issue include, among others, "refugees can include terrorists, and terrorists are awful so we should not allow refugees, even though most are not terrorists" and "refugees are trying to escape tyranny, and tyranny is awful, so we should allow refugees, even though genuine terrorists might posture and get through". These represent probably the two most normal emotional approaches (based on political ideology) to the problem. My approach would be "considering the situation for Syrian refugees' lives, and considering the proportion of refugees that enact terror attacks, with a slight increase given the fact that terrorists may be seeking to take advantage of this opportunity, the average frequency of terror attacks, and the average number of people hurt or killed in terror attacks, it is better, at least in terms of the number of lives that will be lost/saved to offer succor to refugees".

Did you not see the xox. There's a tiny chance that they're a gay male and not a girl but what they're definitely not is a straight male who identifies with what I said.

I'd rather not talk to you any further based on your post history. This isn't an insult or a snub because it's not from any dislike or hostility. You're posting in a formulaic robotic way which doesn't make for an enjoyable chat.

I also don't mean to be condescending. It probably doesn't matter to you that I find your posting manner boring which is ok but it might matter to you if girls find it boring because meeting a girl is likely your motivation for posting in the thread. I apologize if I'm wrong but it seems to me that you're posting the way you are as a way of showing girls how smart you are. The problem is, instead of making you look smart, it only comes off as mental masturbation and lacking social awareness. Like I said, I'm not trying to insult you, I have no reason to believe that you're not smart. It's that if you are smart and want to use that to get girls, the way to go about it is to either apply it to the social end and be able to deal with girls on a level where you vibe or to apply it to your career and humble brag about how well you do.

That said, girls aren't worth it in the first place and the biggest efficiency isn't about how to best get girls, it's to stop caring altogether. That said, wanting girls is a strong natural urge that can't be explained away with logic. The only way to stop caring is to get burned a few times or a lot of times depending on how stubborn you are.

I did not see the xox; it is possible that that poster is a homosexual male, or still possible that it is a heterosexual male trying to be humorous, or even something else that I can't identify.

I'm not offended and don't think you're being condescending, I don't know why I would for either. My writing is objectively very formulaic, literal, and precise - it's habitual and comes from a background in writing for scientific publication, and has nothing to do with appealing or affronting to others. It's just not useful to adopt another writing style because I only every write for either grants of publication, and being not formulaic, literal, and precise is seen as poor-quality writing in science, and will earn you no funding and you will not get your science published.

Interacting with me in person is somewhat different in that the varying degrees of my engagement in the interaction, and usually how much I enjoy the interaction are perceptible.

I see why you would interpret that I was trying to get attention from women, though, based on the content of my first post. I saw this thread as more of a discussion about the things we like and dislike about ourselves than a means of attracting someone of the opposite sex (imo, if you're a male legitimately trying to attract someone of the opposite sex on 4chan you're kind of hopeless).

I don't like sharing a bed or even really sleeping in the same room as someone else. Along with that, I like having a space that is specifically mine. It lets me have a place to put all of my hobby stuff, leave it a bit messy if I want (and not have to feel bad about making someone else exist around it), and is an easy way to let someone know that I want some "me" time. That kind of also extends to my entire living situation. I'm sure it also comes from being an only child.

One can be hygienic and smell like a human at the same time - actually, if we're speaking technically, not wearing deodorant is more hygienic because there is some weak evidence that wearing it causes or exacerbates some health conditions, but I get what you were saying. I definitely do have a smell - wouldn't argue against that, like I said I think I smell good - but I would bet that it's a lot less offensive than you apparently think. I shower daily (use Mrs. Meyers Clean day lavender dish soap as body and hair soap because it smells amazing, cleans amazing, doesn't dry my skin, and is like 95% biodegradable or something), and I have to practically stick my nose right in my armpit to smell my scent.

Again, very few people have ever told me I smell bad, and a few (maybe, like 4 or 5) people have even told me I smell nice. Both my exes loved putting their face right in my armpit and just sniffing (to this date I get a little turned on by the idea of someone doing this) - although, to be fair, this probably has something to do with MHC.

It seems somewhat like the distinction you make yourself between being "messy" and "dirty".

But, what would you consider that a "red flag" for?
>>
>>24900889
>I have to practically stick my nose right in my armpit to smell my scent.

Because you're used to it. You smell it 24/7, so you can't really smell yourself. It's the same way that when you first walk onto a farm, it smells like cow shit, but 30 minutes later, you don't smell the shit anymore. Your brain filters out smells that you smell constantly.

Again, it's your body, and as long as you're happy, I'm glad. I'm not telling you to wear deodorant if you don't like it. I just wouldn't be able to date you. I put "red flag" in quotes because I was trying to use the term quite loosely. I don't think you're a bad person for not wearing deodorant, but I would be ashamed to go places with you or be in groups of people or with family knowing that you are sharing your odour with everyone.
>>
>>24901016
Fair enough, olfactory fatigue is a demonstrated phenomenon.

Although that seems to me like a silly thing to feel shame over. I'm not even ashamed, and I'm the person who you imply smells offensively (without having ever actually smelled me) :P

But you wouldn't know about the ones who don't wear deodorant and don't smell, because you wouldn't be able to tell... without asking you'd just assume they wear deodorant. They could be equally as abundant, or even more so, and you'd have no idea. This would fall under confirmation bias.

When I say "this would fall under[...]" I'm talking about the experience you're describing.
>>
>>24901647
I find that people who don't wear deodorant are often very vocal about their decision to do so. And again, everyone who doesn't wear deodorant smells unless they've gotten out of the shower five minutes ago. They think they don't, but they do. Hell, people who wear deodorant start to smell after a whole day or if you're doing strenuous activity or are out in the sun.
>>
>>24901678
I'm not suggesting that they don't have a smell - as you say everyone has a smell - but, again, you wouldn't know about the people who don't wear it who aren't vocal about it, and they are possibly as abundant or more so. I don't tell anyone except when prompted, so here's irrefutable evidence that we exist.

I'm not trying to say that you're downright wrong and that people who don't wear deodorant smell great - I'm just calling you out for making a claim based on a dataset that is clearly at least somewhat incomplete. Hell you might even be sitting next to some complete strangers who smell terrible and wear deodorant, and just assuming they don't "all people who don't wear deodorant smell bad".

(p.s. this isn't even really about non-deodorant-wearing smelly people anymore, I'm trying to get you to evaluate your conclusion-drawing process, because it is accepting/unaware of bias and thus dangerous)
>>
>>24901704
I'm well aware of what you're doing. The way you spoke with the other person in the thread was an indicator of that.

The problem is we are arguing two different points. I'm saying "I can see when people have red paint on their face," and you're saying "sometimes it's invisible paint." I'm telling you that I can straight up tell when someone has deodorant on or not (provided they haven't just exited the shower). You're telling me I can't. There isn't a discussion to be had.

That's awfully close-minded of you, but if you refuse to acknowledge the truth of the fact that you can not know what you do not know then there isn't much I can do. You'll just continue to assume your omnipresence.

>>24901678
I just wanted to point out you're objectively wrong. A lot of people don't need to wear deodorant, but feel they should because its common in western society. Body odor is genetic and if you're not white or black, its less likely you need to use deodorant.
>>
>>24902127
For someone calling me omnipresent, you sure do act like you know everything. It isn't even close to the same rhetoric that bigots use. I don't give a shit what someone does to their body. It doesn't affect me. The way I make sure this doesn't affect me is by not dating them. It's as simple as that. I'm not ignorant by pointing out that people sweat and it smells bad.

I have in no way implied, insinuated, or suggested that I know everything. I have even on at least two occasions in this very thread alone admitted, myself, when I was not considering a possible influential factor (referring to that one person's sexuality and sex, and my admission to you about not considering olfactory fatigue). You've dove nothing but insist you know for sure that your view is correct... even though you can not know what you do not know. I have only stated facts and admitted when I was inappropriately assumptive. If you feel that I have acted like a know-it-all that is your objectively unjustified interpretation.

And your logic is the same. I paraphrase myself in imitation of you (and please correct me my imitation is incorrect); "I haven't met all of the people who don't wear deodorant, and I can't even identify them all because many of them are not detectably smelly, additionally it is possible that I have misidentified some people who are smelly deodorant wearers as non-wearers, but I know all non-wearers smell bad". Please also tell me how this is separated from the logic of someone who feels that even though they have not met all black people, and that because some of the black people they have met are violent, it is legitimate to suggest that all black people are violent (change "black people" to "women" and "violent" to "[any stereotype about women]" for a sexist version).
>>
>>24902514

>>24902514
I know that my nose works. I know that I can smell when people don't wear deodorant.

>If you feel that I have acted like a know-it-all that is your objectively unjustified interpretation.
This sentence alone is in an incredibly holier-than-thou tone.

It isn't an equivalency because I'm not attempting to generalise or make a statement about people who don't wear deodorant other than that they smell which is a result of them not wearing deodorant, not a judgement about them.

You're acting as if I have to smell every person on earth to know if people who don't wear deodorant smell or not, and that isn't the case. If I said I thought mac and cheese tasted bad, it would be ridiculous to imply that I should try every brand of mac and cheese that exists before I make that statement. When you have multiple of the same experience over and over again, it's very much acceptable to predict that the rest of those experiences will go the same way.
>>
>>24902564
>I know that my nose works. I know that I can smell when people don't wear deodorant.
But you don't know that you can't smell the non-smelly ones, because you can't smell them. How would you know? Unless you ask every single person you meet if they wear deodorant, and then smell them, it is possible that every single person who you cannot factually confirm wears it does not wear it. You would have no idea, but you're insisting that you would, because your nose is just that good...

You are generalising... you're literally saying that all samples who have (X) condition exhibit (Y) characteristic, without allowing room for (possibly abundant) exception. That's the most literal example of generalization that exists because it is generalization by definition... and if you put "women" or "black people" into (X) instead of "people who don't wear deodorant" (even keeping the same (Y)) then it's racist or sexist. Judgement is irrelevant - qualification of sample with (X) as always possessing (Y) is the thing that makes generalization generalization.

If you want to make a statement like "people who don't wear deodorant smell bad", instead of "this person, who circumstantially doesn't wear deodorant, smells bad" then you have to smell at least 30 people, randomly selected, who don't wear deodorant (and your previous selection has seemingly not been randomly selected, because, again, you've seemingly been mostly been smelling strangers... and if they smell bad you're assuming they do not wear deodorant, never mind that you're missing all of the non-smelly non-wearers, and possibly qualifying some smelly wearers as non-wearers) and use Chi Square analysis (with whatever alpha is acceptable for this - I have no idea what that would be, but standard scientific proc is alpha eq 0.05), to be able to say one way or another.
>>
>>24902666
Let me put this whole argument in simpler terms with numbers:

You may be interacting with some smelly non-wearers. That's all fine and good to suggest that they smell bad. But let's also say that those smelly non-wearers only represent 5% of non-wearers. The rest of the non-wearers (the non-smelly ones) would get by you without you even noticing... because they do not smell bad, so you would not assume them non-wearers. In 100 people/day, this is you smelling 5 smelly non-wearers and assuming that they represent all non-wearers... while 95 non-smelly non-wearers got past you without you even noticing.

THIS IS POSSIBLE, and you have no evidence to suggest that it is not the case... so to suggest that non-wearers smell bad is extremely pre-mature, and by definition generalizing.

Does this make sense to you? If I am not being clear about something I can try to rephrase it.
>>
>>24902678
Te be fair, the null hypothesis in this ChiSq would be a 50/50 division (which still does not qualify a sweeping statement as appropriate). I used a 5/95 split to make a point.

>>24902564
>This sentence alone is in an incredibly holier-than-thou tone.
Again, your interpretation... although this time justified (if still incorrect - I presented it as a simple statement and not as a derision)
>>
>>24902666
Again, I am not generalising. I am making a causality statement. Not wearing deodorant means that when you sweat, you'll smell bad. That isn't a generalisation. A generalisation is "people who don't wear deodorant are evil."

I'm telling you that I've met dozens of people who don't wear deodorant, who have told me they don't wear deodorant, and EVERY SINGLE one of them has had bad body odour. Every. Single. One. Not some, not most, every one. Now you keep saying that I'm interacting with people who don't wear deodorant, and I'm assuming they do because they don't smell. Then care to explain to me how zero of the people who have told me they don't wear deodorant have managed to not have body odour? How have none of the people I've spoken with managed to be these non-smelling people? I have definitely met people who think they don't have body odour, but let me tell you, they do.

>Does this make sense to you? If I am not being clear about something I can try to rephrase it.
This is you, yet again, being incredibly arrogant.
>>
>>24902732
>>24902977

>>24896996
Formulaic way of talking and lacking social awareness is too nice of a way of putting it. This way this guy talks is from full blown autism.
>>
>>24902977
By your logic this isn't a generalization, it's a causality statement, because it makes no personal qualification or judgement: "The Muslim holy book, Quran, spells out literally that Shariah Law should be expanded, and all dissenters and followers of other religions should be killed. This means that Muslims have an agenda to expand Shariah Law and to kill dissenters and non-believers."

But that is still a generalization, one that people inappropriately use to justify a Muslim ban in immigration to the U.S., even though it is also a(n incorrect) causality statement.

A dataset with dozens of samples is a better dataset than I thought you had, so I'll admit your case is stronger than I thought, but without a truly random n your conclusion is still subject to confirmation bias, because you either refuse, fail, or do not have the opportunity to incorporate samples that do not fit in line your view of the world into your conclusion-drawing process - which is one of the things I am trying to demonstrate the danger of.

And that is again your interpretation. If you read the question and statement literally, without derisive inflection, which is how I presented it but not how you interpreted it, then it is just me asking you if I am not being clear and offering to try a different approach. It's even somewhat suggestive of the opposite of arrogance in that I am making the assumption that I have possibly done something inadequately, and am offering to try again - as opposed to insisting that I have explained it well enough and that you are inadequate for not understanding (which I'm neither saying nor implying).

Except it does make a personal qualification. It assumes that everyone who partakes in a religion partakes in every single aspect of that, which is very much not the case for people who practice religion. This same law exists in Christianity. Causality statements still need to have context.

My conclusion isn't subject to confirmation bias because it's not like I meet bad-smelling people and go, "hey, do you wear deodorant?" I am told independently by these people that they don't wear deodorant because they, much like you, think that it doesn't affect how they smell. And they are incredibly wrong. How many people would I have had to have met for you to admit that people who don't wear deodorant smell bad? Because I'm guessing the answer is that I couldn't have given you any number to be content because you simply don't agree with me.

Obviously it's my interpretation. But it's one that other people in this thread alone have agreed with, and yet you keep saying is on me rather than being on you. And this is yet another reflection of being holier-than-thou.

I'm in Canada, unfortunately. I am sorry for your loss on Sunday.

I don't expect my partner to become a vegetarian, for what it's worth. I just can't handle raw meat, so if I'm cooking, it won't have meat in it.

I'm not someone who puts an intrinsic value on being related to someone by blood. If I happen to meet your folks and we get along, great, but I doubt that will happen. I don't like the whole "if you date someone, you date their family" mentality. I'm not rude to my partner's family by any means, but I just don't want to automatically have to be involved in someone's life because they share a bloodline with my partner.

>>24904787
None of yours are dealbreakers to me.

Eh, everybody has their own deal breakers, I'd still consider my bad-points to be bad points, even if they're not deal breakers. Most people like somebody they can take to places or hang around with their friends with, so they'd be deal breakers for a lot of people!

Most of yours, for example, wouldn't be deal breakers to me either. Hell, the worst thing on your list is that you're a vegetarian but that's just because I love food/cooking so I eat everything, but SOME people would consider that a deal breaker.

I don't really think they're bad points, though. I mean, obviously the anxiety and depression aren't good things to be dealing with, but I don't think they're a negative trait you have, personally, if that makes sense.

>>24905192
That's a good analogy, except I totally stopped and watched two horses fight over a pylon the other day, so I can't say I wouldn't find two mules and a turnip funny.

I have a spare room if things ever get too harsh! As long as you don't mind it being full of craft supplies, haha.

neat,
for a long time i wanted to go int herpetology etc ( and i still love going out and trying to find all species possible in my state) but i ended up getting a job at a fish hatchery and am hoping to persue that path instead since i now have job experience and enjoy it greatly
working at a museum or zoo or something along those lines would be really neat though
i actually have a few tabs open on amphibian egg mass identification and amphibian larvae identification ( mostly salamanders)
>>
>>24905535
Oh shit that's rad. I love fish.
Museums are one of my favorite things. A nice zoo would be cool but i'm a bit too granola to feel comfortable in most zoos, I'd be into a wildlife reserve maybe but they tend to have mostly mammals.
Salamanders are great, that sounds really interesting.

so no degree but job experience and lots and lots of reading in my off time
the type of work im doing isnt super technical but i like it because i get to pick the brains of some of the guys who have worked there 30, even 40 years and learn
i volunteer with bios whenever i can to just learn as much as i can about the subject
only 20 now but hoping to continue with my current job for a few years and eventually move to a different hatchery if i cant move up at the one i in currently

>>24905592
i may or may not be able to find eggs , going through some droughts and not sure how the whole vernal pool situation is going to be this spring
but i should be able to find them in the larval stage and have done a bunch of resterch on rasing them from that point on,
hopefully il be able to find something interesting and not just raise something boring like a two lined salamander
though going through the process would be worthwhile no matter what

george wasnt from an egg, hes actually only temporary i had a friend find him in a swimming pool ( that he couldnt get out of ) in early winter
ground frozen solid snow on the ground and pool freezing over so they gave hi to me to take care of over winter, and hopefully get him back to nature in early spring ( in an ideal world il be able to find a vernal pool where spotted salamanders are spawning and il release him there

i have a cat, and george ( for now)
then i have a few aquariums im just messing around with trying to decide if i want to put more time and effort into it
though i usually have a bunch of animals , i tend to be the go to when people find a injured or baby animal that needs to be helped ( even though im not a licensed rehabilitator)

dont have too much experience with salamanders as i havent done it before , though fro rasing fish from egg im expecting the trick to be getting them to eat when really little, bread worked well for baby fish but im thinking blood worms or black worms will be good for baby salamanders
im still doing a bunch of reading and research though

I've only ever taken care of birds.
>>
>>24905729
to get licensed id have to go through classes ( and would be glad to i always love learning more )
but the kicker with becoming licensed is they want you to have a facility that has cages etc already set up , wouldnt necessarily be worth it to clear a bunch of room at my house build a bunch of cages and possibly a whole nother building just to occationally get one or two animals
i may end up doing it some day ( id love to ) but not right now for me

baby birds are alright ,
i really enjoyed rasing baby squirrels as walking around with 3 squirrels climbing over you was entertaining , they would chatter at strangers and usually startle people
but they were messy and sometimes would be moody and try to bite
baby racoon was pretty nice but i didnt have it for long really friendly and would follow me like a dog, but it really didnt like anyone else and chased my neighbor once

i didnt rehab it myself but captured and temporary held an enormous osprey that had gotten caught in a net and broken something
had that around for about a day before a trained raptor expert came and took it

everything has its ups and downs, everything has its own personality

its something id definatley suggest if youre capable enough and have the time and energy , its really rewarding
>>
>>24905752
Oh yeah that's kind of a big hassle. I'm sure they have some cool classes though.
Squirrels are fun, I have an aunt who rehabilitates squirrels lol
Raccoons are one of my favorite animals, it must've been nice to get a friendly one as opposed to most.

Wow the osprey must've been an experience, I live right nearby a raptor conservancy and they're no joke.

I'd love to have the time someday, maybe i'll take some time before going to grad school to do some internships and volunteering and and set something like that up for a little while.

I know it's not fun but I would honestly rather not date a, well, normie. Don't know what else to call it.
>>
>>24905944
Wow that's.. wow.
Okay well speaking from a similar-ish situation I can say personally I can't look past my boyfriend being unfaithful. I can't say everyone is like this, but I feel like you can't ever love her fully without being reminded of what she did. You can try and make it work, but if you are saying she doesn't put in the same work then it might be best for your sanity to move on. You can't be happy or at peace if you are constantly worrying of what she's doing right? Do you want that for years to come? That's no way to live.
>>24905948
I mean as long as your faithful, not staring at other girls in front of your partner or being a general pig I'm sure it can work.
>>
>>24905967
Yeah, I was blinded by my love for her when I got back into this. I still have extremely strong feelings for her but the thought of it happening again drives me crazy. Walking away is probably for the best.

Thanks, needed to get this off my chest. <3

Well, going through the list

I think those are actually really cute and endearing trait.
>messy
I don't really mind and it just means you probably won't mind me being lazy too
>self conscious and lets things get to you
We all get comfortable with ourselves eventually, it just takes time
>Lazy
This is the only one I wouldn't say I really like but it does sound like it isn't really your fault and its nice to see that you're still trying to put your effort elsewhere.
>Jealous, clingy, etc.
I'm a bit concerned about the trust issues but it's still good to have someone interested in me and cares that much and sounds really nice

>good
Easy to get along with. Have a variety of interests. Love music. Adventurous, enjoy doing fun shit. Reasonably attractive. Self aware and able to handle criticism. Comfortable in my own skin.

>small
Naturally somewhat introverted. Fairly messy. Highly career focused. Don't drink often but tend to go hard when I do. Will procrastinate when given the chance.

>medium
Very romantically inexperienced for someone my age. Won't try anything physical without super obvious cues.

>large
Have a hard time emotionally opening up to others. Afraid of actually committing myself to someone. Occasionally go through depressive episodes.
>>
>>24905369
I understand the strain they can put on relationships, but mental illness itself isn't a reason I'd avoid dating someone.

>>24905389
How is someone having more experience in something than you a dealbreaker? Replace sex with any other activity, and it sounds asinine. "I wouldn't want to date someone who has cooked more than 50 different meals in their life." It's ridiculous. Not to mention that the number itself just seems so arbitrary. Like, 3 people, but that doesn't equate to how much sex someone has had. If someone has had 3 one-night stands and that's it, how are they more experienced than someone who has had 1 boyfriend for 4 years who they had sex with a few times a week? It's just such a childish way of looking at things. Everyone has different amounts of experience in different areas of their lives.

>>24905415
Yep. aisformorethananime

>>24905445
>i will not crack my shit open
I laughed a lot at this line.

None of your stuff is really a dealbreaker other than maybe how you'd react to things getting serious. If you communicated well, things would be fine, though.

>>24905680
I don't know if I'd be able to date someone who had trouble forming new memories. I think it would be very frustrating to constantly have to remind someone of things about our relationship.

>>24905829
Very jealous is a dealbreaker for me, and going through my shit would end the relationship immediately.

>>24906266
Commitment issues can be iffy, but not entirely a dealbreaker.

Dude, consider some therapy. You are going to have a hard time connecting with other human beings in a meaningful way like this.

You were probably ok till you said that. That attitude is a MAJOR turn off for most women. It's terribly unattractive.

Still live with family
I don't drive and am frankly scared of driving--I have a permit, but no license
I can't see myself as ever being higher than lower middle class--give me $35-40k a year and I'll be satisfied
I've never really felt physically attractive and I have a face that doesn't look particularly feminine or masculine.

>Large
I've never been in a relationship
I have depression--I've had it for several years, but only received my official diagnosis recently (Persistent depressive disorder/dysthymia)
I have low self esteem and more self loathing than I know what to do with
Not really a family person--I have a lot of issues with my mother and want to get away from her
I have a bad comfort eating problem--I used to exercise regularly but stopped because of the depression, so naturally I ended up putting on weight. I'm not obese or technically overweight, but I can stand to lose 20 pounds.
I don't think I'm capable of loving people romantically, although I desire romantic relationships
I can't picture myself in a long-term relationship with a man who is not a trap/femboy/twink/crossdresser
I have a lot of unresolved anger and I'm afraid of lashing out at anyone who might get close to me
I have no interest in being pregnant, but I'm okay with raising someone else's children

>Idk if arguing about it will change most peoples' views, especially since there's a lot of grey areas

all memeing aside, that's definitely true about a lot of animal rights activists. but I definitely distance myself from them and a lot of their practices and am much more aligned with animal welfare advocacy. It's a bit different in that animal rights people are usually way more extreme (like PETA) and seem to have sort of weird unclear goals that just lead to them screaming about their feefees all day long. Animal welfare advocates and groups are like the ASPCA and Humane Society of the United States. Usually way more realistic and actually have facts to back up stances on much more specific issues that are realistic to take on as opposed to just yelling about random idealized shit because "I love animals"

I was definitely a rabid animal rights activist when I was younger, but now I hang with the animal welfare crowd and people are much more receptive to it. A bit part of it is that a lot of the issues around animal welfare are born out of people simply not knowing better and needing to be informed (ex: why breeding of brachycephalic dogs is unhumane, environmental impacts of modern animal agriculture practices, the consequences of declawing cats, why BSL is ineffective, etc)

Might post it when you're around, I don't have a throwaway.

As for the thread though, I think almost every post included things that should be dealbreakers for people and should be worked on before seeking a relationship. One can cover up a lot of flaws with the rose tinted glasses of fresh affection but long-term stability seems impossible with this kind of baggage. It's at least good though when people put it out there openly.

27/M/Straight

>The Good
I'm an intelligent person who's accepting of other people's likes and lifestyle choices. I'm slow to anger, often doing my best to not let things bother me. I have a fierce sense of loyalty, my friends know they can trust and rely on me. I love them like brothers.

I'm tall (6'0"), broad shouldered and of average weight. I also have a kick ass beard and a seven inch dick.

>Small baggage
Hairline started riding up in high school, that sort of shit destroys a man's self esteem and confidence. I shaved my head and learned to love myself again, which is great, but I still get self concious if I haven't shaven in a few days. Also my dick curves to the left and I'm worried that's something that might be a deal breaker.

I'm also strapped for cash. The industry I work in hasn't been doing well so I got hit with a pay cut and some shit went down to drain my savings.

>Medium baggage
I have no love for my family (despite acting like I do) and will likely sever all contact with them at some point in the future. They aren't bad people for the most part, they're just people who I have to deal with on occasion. This doesn't seem like medium baggage to me, but I'm certain some people will see it as a red flag.

I also have very little experience with woman, having had no experience prior to shaving my head and a small number of short relationships in the five years since.

>Big baggage
I have MASSIVE trust issues. Any time a woman shows interest in me I assume I'm seeing something that isn't there or that she just wants something. This sometimes extends to anyone being friendly with me. This has cost me good things in the past.

Of the few girlfriends I've had, I never loved any of them. I'm certain I'm capable of romantically loving someone, but I don't think I ever have.

Indeed. I tend to mostly just comment on the straight/bi females because who cares about deal breakers from someone who's not part of your gender/sexuality target.
