Never gets old

What is a republican?
-
Someone that makes women cover their drinks when they walk in the room
-
-
A miserable pile of secrets!
-
But enough talk, let's grab a drink?
-

Serious answer: Anyone who identifies as one.
I literally can't pin it down more than that as there are exceptions to every rule. Same goes for a man.
-
No. While people have the freedom to call themselves whatever they want, I also reserve my own freedom to call them whatever the f*** I want. It works both ways. At least it should.
-
You can call anyone what you want. You have that freedom like anyone else. Like everyone else you can be considered a extremely rude and not nice if you dead name or miss gender.

what is a singer? a runner? a painter? Do I have to win a marathon to be runner, or can I be a runner and run a mile a week at 5mph? If you see me running that mile, am I not "the runner over there?"
Regarding your own freedom, if someone says "My name is Elizabeth, you can call me Liz, Lizzie, Liza, Eliza... just not Beth please," and you go "Ok BETH." - yeah, that's your freedom to do that, you're still an asshole.
-
remember kids, freedom of speech does not mean freedom of consequences
-
And everyone else has the right to think you're a prick and cut you out of their lives.
-
You're just not a very nice person, are you?
-
No need to be a bitch, Brenda.

Ultimately, it's a courtesy. Like finding out if the James you just met prefers James, Jim, Jimmy, Jimbo, their middle name or a completely different one because the uncle they hate was also a James. We do this in various parts of our dealings with people, it's part of the oil that greases the wheels of human interaction. You can chose to be discourteous but you may well find people chose to not have anything to do with you.

Leaving your drink unattended in public spaces is a terrible idea in general.
-
Why would they cover their drinks? I don't get it @-@
-
To stop it being spiked with date rape drugs.
-
Makes sense, thanks
-
Oh!
-
-
Never leave your drink unattended.
-
No doubt. People do this shit even without rape plans. Either they think it's funny or someone pissed them off so they decided to ruin their night or perhaps their life.
My friend got dosed in Denver and ended up with multiple charges due to his behavior. He had two drinks at a bar, left, then did insane things that can't be explained by just being shitfaced.

Whenever you next attend a wedding, watch how many women take their drinks with them to the dance floor. That's the threat environment women live in every day
-

I want to say y'all are paranoid. But.
My wife came home one night, hammered. OK. Fuck me, she drove home?! Not proud to say, but we drank and drove a lot in those days, got a hotel or cab if we were smashed.
Next day she doesn't remember a thing but having a second drink at the bar with the girls. Nothing else. C'mon! Could hardly believe it, chewed her out for driving drunk, she insisted she only had 2 or 3 drinks. Bullshit. Takes more than a couple of drinks for us to black out. Hell, we never got that drunk.
She got to talking to her friends that were regulars at that bar. Regulars who had the same bar tender. Same exact experiences. You add it up.
She wouldn't report it. Because what are you going to report exactly?
Having said all this, that's my only story on the subject. And I've done a lot of sketchy shit, ran with sketchy people. Date rape drugs are not as common as you might think. But they are indeed a thing.
-
Oh, it's surprisingly common. There are even occasional bursts of people cutting out the middle-person and going for directly injecting people on the dance floor
It's scary out there
(and don't drive drunk kids; you're risking innocent lives because you're too cheap to get a cab. Not a good look)
-
"Date drugs" are super common and easy to buy. Psychopaths that actually use them on unconsenting people, fortunately not very common. But common enough thst I would never leave my drink unattended.
-
Could hardly believe it, chewed her out for driving drunk, she insisted she only had 2 or 3 drinks
Only? You shouldn't drive if you have had any drinks.
-
-
What is the context of that thread?
-
Spiking a drink, apparently
They're saying, by relation, that they look like a rapist
-
-
All I know is they're not a miserable little pile of secrets. That would be a man.
-
-
In logic, finding a case where a statement isn't true is a very common and correct way to disprove that statement. So the proposition that "a woman has xx chromosomes and is born with a vagina", would actually be logically disproved by the counter-examples you bring up.
-
I mean, thats a very naive opinion formed on outdated knowledge of the human biology. I'd be happy to share resources with you if you actually want to learn.
-
-
ehhhhh this is cringe. on both sides.
-
Thanks, I do try my hardest to act the insufferable cunt on here, so seeing people act like my reply was somehow clever and original (it wasn't, I've just seen it used before) was a bit of a surprise.
