I assume that the attraction of the xenomorph is that you can get eaten out while you get eaten out.

[-] raef@lemmy.world 50 points 21 hours ago

Okay, hear me out: the girls aren't taking the task remotely seriously.

[-] rainwall@piefed.social 36 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

Counter take : the girls are using the mask of ridiculousness to take the task very seriously.

[-] silasmariner@programming.dev 4 points 19 hours ago

Aspie girls mask, you say?

The simplest explanation is that all of us want to fuck Bowser and the Drake equation. And thank you for the razor, I will use it to shave my balls.

[-] rainwall@piefed.social 5 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

I guess? My explanation fits that maxim about as well as yours, so it doesn't really resolve anything.

[-] raef@lemmy.world 4 points 20 hours ago

Mine has one step. Yours has two: subterfuge and then we have to accept someone honestly evaluates the sexual viability of a mathematical theorem

[-] rainwall@piefed.social 4 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

Yours is two steps: think of something unexpected to have sex with, make a compelling argument for laughs.

Mine is one step : write up your secret sexual fantasy, the wilder the better. The "wildness" inherently provides subterfuge, because it makes people incredulous.

[-] raef@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

What you attributed to me was the task presented to both genders, not the explanation I gave. They were still supposed to come up with an explanation so I don't know why you left that out in the latter

But you think the examples given were honest—Non-corporeal concepts?

[-] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

This is the most autistic argument I’ve ever read on the internet, and my first browser was Lynx.

[-] rainwall@piefed.social 1 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

Whatup to all my altavista homies.

Bet you had a copy of this fucker too:

[-] sem 59 points 1 day ago

I mean not to throw shade but it's one thing to say you would and another thing to really do it. I guess I am throwing shade.

[-] ech@lemmy.ca 46 points 1 day ago

The meme also incentivizes extreme, inauthentic choices to provoke reactions. Not saying this to defend incels, but "women will fuck anything" also isn't the right takeaway.

[-] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 12 points 23 hours ago

No but "women want more variation than the one body/personality you are trying to fake it as" very much is.

[-] ech@lemmy.ca 11 points 23 hours ago

Yes, that's a healthy outlook, but that's not what they said.

If the trend has taught me anything [it's] that girls will fuck literally anything

[-] timik_pipik@lemy.lol 5 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

Probably a joke Edit: with some truth to it

[-] CommissarVulpin@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago

If you can’t convince a girl to fuck you … it’s because you’re an insufferable human being.

Oh. Nice to know my relationship struggles are all my fault.

[-] PanGodofPanic 10 points 22 hours ago

Unironically yes, they are. Whose else do you think it could even possibly be?

[-] Azzu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

I mean... the definition of a relationship is that there's another person to have a relationship with. So probably that one.

I think the point you're missing is that the requirement here was stated as "as long as you're not an insufferable person, you will get sex", which is blatantly false. You can be perfectly pleasant and never "get sex".

[-] bear 2 points 4 hours ago

My approach is to trust their lived experience. They are frustrated. If someone applies to 100 jobs, and only gets scam offers and ghosted by businesses, I don't tell them how they just need to smile more authentically.

[-] lemmyknow@lemmy.today 4 points 21 hours ago

Obviously the other person, duh

[-] Fleur_@aussie.zone 2 points 19 hours ago

It's my fault. I placed a curse on them. Not even for any reason, I was just practicing

[-] moonlight@fedia.io 2 points 19 hours ago

What an unempathetic take. It doesn't have to be anyone's 'fault', although I'd say it's largely society's fault if there's any blame to be had.

[-] gmtom@lemmy.world 1 points 19 hours ago

Capitalism. No i will not explain further.

[-] carotte 3 points 17 hours ago

obviously I don’t know your situation. if you had bad experiences with one person, it may very well be their fault, or someone else’s, or even no one’s (shit happens sometimes)

but if every relationship you have turns bad? ya might wanna look inwards a bit. not saying it’s your fault, I can’t know… but a bit of introspection is never a bad thing

Can confirm. I'm an aspie, overweight with male patten baldness. I'm shy and awkward and have a well above average body count. It's more about being a good conversationalist, a good listener, and being kind. Most of mine developed over time as they got to know me. If I can get laid and incels can't it's not because of how hey look, it's because they're a fucking losers.

EDITed to make my intention clear.

[-] moonlight@fedia.io 12 points 18 hours ago

Okay I don't usually reply to comments like these, but I've had a really shitty day and this touched a nerve so here goes.

I'm a lot of the same things, (although I'm underweight instead and I don't use nazi terminology to describe my autism). I'm in my mid 20s and I've never had sex with anyone, although I deeply desire to, and I'm very lonely. I think I'm a decent person, at least I have plenty of friends who think so. I'm not very attractive, but not unattractive. I have debilitating anxiety. I'm very uncomfortable with the idea of hooking up with someone I'm not close with, and I've avoided "opportunities" because of that. I've also had pretty bad luck in general with relationships. Sex is pretty low on the list of what I'd like out of a relationship, but I would still like to experience it with someone I have an emotional connection with. I form crushes / romantic attraction to someone very rarely, and it just always just doesn't work out for one reason or other. Also, I have the added difficulty of being nonbinary, so aside from being entirely confused about who I was for most of my life, now I have the choice to either pretend I'm someone I'm not, or to be myself and have an extremely small pool of people be interested in me.

Does all this make me a 'fucking loser'? Maybe, but either way it's a really shitty thing for you to say. I'm so fucking sick of being ridiculed and insulted online, even if I'm just getting caught in the crossfire.

[-] jaycifer@lemmy.world 5 points 15 hours ago

Alright, I don't really have a message to direct at you, but I have some words that I kinda want to say to you.

I'm some of those same things. Never been diagnosed with autism (and not really interested in getting a diagnosis) but have consistently been friends with neuro-divergent people. I never had sex until my mid 20s, but up to that point I didn't think it would happen for a long while (my first thought afterward was "darn, now I'll never be a wizard"). If you aren't familiar with the term demisexual, look it up because that's me too! The person you responded to does not give me demisexual vibes, quite the opposite in fact. I can say that I have never given any real consideration to a person's "body count" because it give me the same feeling as hearing someone talk about "adulting." It's something I just don't think a person talking about it can understand because they are talking about it.

This may sound weird, but I think the best thing you can do is embrace your virginity, really own it and own the fact that you know you want an emotional attachment/relationship before sex. You mentioned having severe anxiety, so I get that that would be very difficult, but I can tell you that it is very worthwhile. One of my favorite memories is of going to a small house party of about 6 people and at some point hearing every person/couple talk about sex they had had. Because I had embraced my form of asexuality I found that humorous and just continued to have fun. Later when we played "never have I ever" you can bet I was the only person to get everyone else to drink when I said I had never had sex. Later that evening one of the guys I had met asked me if I was really a virgin with an incredulous tone that told me I did not fit his idea of one, and it was cool to see the change in his perspective.

And when you do do stuff with someone, it will probably be awkward, but it will also probably be with someone that you can continue seeing. And if it's anything like me and my first (and so far also only) partner, who also happened to be nonbinary, it will probably grow into some of the best, most intimate sex a person can have. Just remember that not having sex isn't you, but it can be an aspect of you. As a less cool version of myself once said; "you can only be cool if you're not trying to be cool," which I said in an effort to sound cool.

[-] MapleEngineer@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago

The post was about incenls and my comment was directed at incels. They're angry at the world and blame women for their situation. They are fucking losers.

My Asperger's has me masking hard most of the time. I play most interactions with people I find attractive or think that I might like to get to know casual neutral. That makes me completely non-threatening. It gives them a chance to get to know me and to feel comfortable with me. If they make a joke or say something that might be suggestive I respond at exactly the same level then offer them an out. If they don't take the out and escalate I match their escalation then offer them an out again.

The doctor who diagnosed me did so backhandedly. I was a twofer when he diagnosed my daughter. He told me something that has really served me well. He said, "Introduce yourself. 'Hi, my name is [insert name] and I have Asperger's. That means that I experience and express emotions and interpret expressions of emotions differently than other people. I don't understand subtle social clues. I don't understand hints or suggestions. Just telling me that you like something or want something or dislike something or don't want something is compeltey ok, welcome, and encouraged. If you ask me for something or to do something and i say, "no" it won't upset or embarass me and it shouldn't you. It is safe to tell me what you are thinking and feeling because I have no idea and I want to know. I mask really hard so I may seem cold, disinterested, or thick. You just need to get past the mask. You need to let me know directly that it's ok for me to open up or to do something.'" There's more to it than that. I typically break it up into sections. I stop the first section at hints and suggestions and it's ok and safe to be direct. If they ask a follow-up question I answer with the next part.

I had cancer last year. I got to know the part-time pharmacist at my local pharmacy very well. She has gotten past my mask. I'm going out with her and her 10 year old daughter on Friday to Starbucks to play Minecraft. I played Minecraft when I was getting and recovering from chemo and told her that. She told her daughter who also plays Minecraft. The daughter asked if she could play with my realm and we agreed. I suggested Starbucks and she accepted. We're now texting quite regularly. I like her. She's pretty and smart and funny and has GREAT comedic timing. I'm going to play Minecraft with her daughter while getting to know her. I told her she needed the "Hi, I"m [insert name] and I have Asperger's" introduction. I'll give it to her. Worst case scenario I get a couple of hours of fun playing Minecraft. Best case scenario she asks for more information and we become friends. There are ethical issues involved because she is a professional. The ethical issues are for the treating pharmacist which she isn't and they are based on a perceived power imbalance. There is no power imbalance between us. It is ok with me if she wants more and we can work through the discussion. If not, that's ok too. I like her and will stay friendy.

You could try the same thing. Tell them that you have anxiety and that you tend to back away. Tell them that if that happens they can push a little. Give them the information and permission to persist and see what happens.

I've been living with Asperger's for almost 60 years. This works for me. It might work for you.

[-] tpyoman@lemmy.world 11 points 22 hours ago

You say shoot your shot, but when you an 'eww' back, it kinda sends your RSD into overdrive.

[-] ozymandias@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 19 hours ago

well this text was an imaginary conversation with an incel… one of their main thesis’s is only tall, symmetrical, rich, muscular men have sex, nobody else ever does.

there are many reasons why a person might have a hard time interacting with people normally other than being an insufferable asshole….
for example, RSD….

their post could’ve ended inspiring, like “see? you have a shot if even Bowser does!”.
but instead it went to the same old, “fuck you incels”….
i mean, they do suck but i’m not thinking about them that much….

Of course I know, but maybe explain it to the person above just in case they don't get it...obviously. I'd answer them myself, but I'm much too busy.

[-] rainwall@piefed.social 5 points 21 hours ago

Cake is slang for ass, so a piece of cake becomes a "piece of ass."

It's also likely 70% just so you can eat cake afterwards.

[-] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

Thank you for explaining. My mind went the other way - I thought of the asexual saying, "I'd rather have cake than have sex." Which clearly wouldn't make sense, but it was the only cake/sex comparison I'd heard of.

[-] nailingjello@lemmy.zip 2 points 20 hours ago

Yep...thats exactly my understanding prior to your thoughtful explanation, thank you for that. It was much easier having you explain it so um, I didn't have to.

Man, I must be getting old because I'm having too much trouble wrapping my head around the first paragraph to even get hung up on the difference between who guys and gals want to fuck.

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 5 points 1 day ago

I met my now-husband partly because I said Alien(s) was sexy.

[-] rainwall@piefed.social 5 points 21 hours ago

I mean, I get it. Rippling with power, sleek and smooth, voracious, primal physicality, very intimate, some degree of "gooey."

Not my speed, but they have the essence of attractiveness, besides the inherent dreadful menace and pure strangeness of form.

Pity the rizzless…

They have no rizz and cannot find any, no matter how hard they look.

Silly incels,

The rizz was inside of you all along.
