| Hey, does anyone have stats for the claim that non-monogamy and/or kink, and neurodiversity are linked? I'm really interested in those stats (as a kinky, polyamorous person who likes stats.) That would be super interesting. |

| Krakken: Man, it's a pity we don't live in the same place, because it would be nice to get a beer and cry (okay, I'll cry. You can do whatever you do when super frustrated.) I've just not run into people who seem to get the broad-spectrum combination of incompetence, sexism (or racism in your case) ... |

I loved and still love computers, but any time he was teaching my brother I was told to leave the room. :x Whole thread: My mother was also constantly on me about being properly feminine (especially where it concerned... |

I should just "try harder" or some s**t, and apparently I bore people when I talk about it. After all,... |

| BornThisWay: I guess that's probably at the root of the problem. That kind of competition is a blind spot for me, and one I try diligently to understand and compensate for, but the minute I'm not paying intense attention to it, I forget it's there. I just.... don't get it. And then something happens... |

| I've gotten to the point where I've stopped looking things up, but I already know too much about math to not know that saying a z test is enough to "prove" a thesis is demonstrably false.... and I have trouble remembering to answer that it "proves" a thesis. I would do better if the answers weren't ... |

| Maybe someone else has this problem. I really enjoy learning, but I am often reminded that the apparent goal of academia is NOT to know or understand, but to regurgitate. I've been accused of a lack of departmental loyalty to a department which offers an average of two new courses a semester in two ... |

| Completely OT: What kills me is that I have all these memories of them and now they are in their 50/60s--older and starting to be frail. My mother, in particular, finally got medicated for her bipolar disorder with psychotic episodes, and she is constantly shaky. And now I feel sympathy for them. No... |

| Men do not have that support that women has. What support? No one held my hand, or offered to help me. In fact, every time I tried to tell someone what was happening, they ignored me, beat me, told me they weren't going to impinge on my parents' religious freedom by interfering, told me my parents ... |

| After this thread, there is something I need to make absolutely clear: women are human. We don't have all the answers, we can't cure your problems, we aren't conspiring, we don't all think the same, we can't read each other's minds and we have no idea how to make everyone feel better. Women are NOT ... |
