| Beefcake calendars have existed for quite a while, so clearly some portion of the female population does like to see that. If you’ll read the OP again, you’ll see Kitty didn’t ask to see any men topless or with partial nudity, and nor did she like it or consider it beefcake. It made her uncomfortab... |

| I've lost count of how many unelected Prime Ministers our last Tory government foisted on us, and I guess that's less democratic than switching the Presidential candidate just before an election, so I wasn't too fussed about the Harris thing. Once a leader becomes a tarnished brand, like "slee... |

| I don't dare to say what I think of people that sell the entire world out because one party is still slightly less terrible than the other. Voting for the lesser of two evils is not "selling the entire world out." It is making the world slightly less evil, when that is the best we can do.... |

Obama was an absolute joke, he folded at the first sign of opposition and even his signature legislation was a Heritage Foundation health care proposal without... |

So I did a brief search on Jill Stein, and I can't say I strongly disagree with her stated views, but the effect of her insistence on running for President eve... |

| I'll personally be voting 3rd party because I can't in good conscience vote for either of the retrograde candidates that the major parties are putting up. I don't dare say how I really feel about people who vote 3rd party. What a coincidence, I don't dare to say what I think of people that sell the... |

| This is off-topic but it makes me happy that Walmart theft has increased since they installed the self checkouts. I think that's been the case with all the stores that installed them. It was an acceptable loss, but they haven't figured out how to cut the theft down, customers hate it and they aren'... |

| I'm not sure that it has happened, it's been rare enough for a sitting President to not seek re-election at least once, with most sticking to what is close to the current restrictions in terms of 2 full terms, and up to half of another if they step in mid-term. This whole business is retrograde and ... |

| Interesting that the Jehovah's Witnesses didn't believe in high education, but would often show up at my university trying to recruit students. I am refraining from going on a tangent, but them obtaining higher education would enable the members to realize that they are in a cult. Yep, religious fo... |

| Being shirtless is just as cringe. That's a bit harsh, but I can't exactly blame men for that either. This is one of those things where if women would just put up profiles that actually communicated what they would respond to, men would probably not bother with this one. There's other stuff like th... |

| Webdev and Software Dev sometimes get close and even overlap. Web Pages tend to want things like CSS and JS. The complexity can grow fast. Writing code and need display and input and output. They can sometimes overlap with full stack development. Yes, if you're doing anything that can't be handled ... |

| It looks like it's mainly using steam and gravity to remove the wrinkles. Which kind of reminds me of German where they use the same word for both iron, the thing for ironing clothes, and for clothes hanger. Presumably, it's in part because if you hang your clothes while they're still warm and a bit... |

| No, we just did the times table to 10x10 as they were still teaching long division and multiplication on paper and those hundred values could get the rest. Ah ok. Ours taught long division and multiplication on paper as well. Makes me wonder how they are teaching it now. I was taught memorizing the... |

| A woman can be nice, sweet, innocent, etc. and still have an adventurous sex life, just like men can. It’s not a gendered thing although there are obviously still double standards when it comes to this stuff. Yes, I don't think that kind of a mismatch is really that odd when it comes to sex. One of... |
