So I am aware that the algorithm usually fucks with our perception. So when I see a bunch of reels or posts saying that Gen-Z workers don't know how to communicate, I get a bit suspicious. Like, I am only a millennial, they can't be that different from us, right?

Just to clarify, this is what I am referring to:

- When you go and ask them something, they just stare at you for a while.

- They usually don't know anything about their current role. Like if you asked a hostess about free seats, she would say "idk" and kinda just walk out of the conversation.

- A general air of dismissiveness under the excuse they are underpaid (as if the rest of the world is living like princes)

But I work in marketing, and I know generational divides are mostly made up bullshit to sell personalized items. I say mostly, because there are clear divisions. But these mostly relate to other political attitudes or musical tastes and such.

So, is it true? Why? Why do they act like this?

I’m a 59 year old. The other day I was just floating in my pool (alone) pretending to be a navy warship attacking bugs or other things in the water. I got to thinking that I pretend a lot. Started to wonder if other grown adults play pretend still?

I've still been experimenting with walking around the house naked and doing stuff around the house naked whilst no one else is around, like my chores, cooking, cleaning. Before then I would just be naked in my room.

I am really enjoying being naked and I feel so free, so it got me wondering if anyone else like to do the same things?

My boyfriend and I have been together for 9 years, and he has never really taken the initiative to make my birthday special past years have felt forced or ruined because I had to drag him into making plans. Tomorrow is my birthday, and he just mentioned working all day, so I'm pretty sure he completely forgot. I'm feeling really frustrated and hurt, and I'm torn between speaking up right now or just staying quiet to see if he figures it out on his own.
I don’t want to be petty. I know that it can be all resolved by a simple reminder, but I am a little hurt that he never makes one day of the year to make me feel special

My fiance and I have been struggling in our sex life due to ed. He's currently working with a dr to come up with a treatment plan etc also just found out he's a diabetic so I am aware things are not like these used to be. So today is my bday we started fooling around he told me to s#$%^ his member i did halfway through he told me to take my panties off then proceeded to take his phone out and look at the weather as I laid there like wtf? I feel so disrespected and hes telling me its not that serious. I feel neglected and undesired by the whole situation even though its not my fault but for me to cry and tell him he hurt me and how that made me feel and for him to act like its nothing. Am I overreacting?

I've been thinking about how unimaginably huge the universe is. With billions of galaxies and even more planets, do you believe there are other intelligent species out there? Why or why not?

hi guys! facial tattoos are a huge part of my culture.
the placements are usually on your forehead, chin, or cheeks with the design being pretty minimalist (lines and dots).
i know a lot of people think face tattoos are unattractive and i agree (to an extent).
but do people view cultural/tribal tattoos differently?
id love to get a cultural tattoo since they have a deep meaning, and ofc because they’re part of my culture but i am scared of it making me unattractive.
what are your opinions on cultural/tribal facial tattoos?

edit:
for all the people worrying about me finding a job i can reassure you that i currently have a stable job and that my line of work doesn’t care about appearance especially because we don’t work with customers! and no this will definitely not be my first tattoo :)

im 18f, guy is 53M. matched on hinge, he asked to support me/be my “boyfriend”. i thought it was a joke so i matched for shits n gigs. he said he wanted a dl relationship, met with him in person. he said hed pay 1k a week, wanted to see me 2-3 times for about 2hrs each time. for 300-400 dollars. he doesnt care if i date other people/sleep with them as long as he knows. divorcee of 7 yrs w kids that i will not be meeting. im pretty sure this counts as being a sugar baby or something?? am i wrong to take him up?

tldr: 18f matched w 53m on hinge, got offered 1k weekly to see him 2-3 times. is this prostitution? am i wrong to accept?

this will be deleted after a few hours. please give your honest opinion.

When me and my boyfriend have sex, the condom will often roll up. It’s super annoying. It doesn’t come off all the way but still.
Is it a size issue? Boyfriend said that it feels rather tight.
Not sure if it’s relevant but he is pretty well endowed, especially in girth.

I was invited to a Gen Z bridal shower and was looking through the registry. I expected the usual home items, but instead there were things like running shoes, everyday makeup (not wedding-related), funky jewelry, and other personal items that don’t seem connected to setting up a home.
Maybe I’m just showing my age, but I always thought wedding registries were mainly for household items that the couple would use together.
Is this a Gen Z thing that’s become more common, or am I just out of touch?

EDIT: yes they already live together and likely have all the household items they need. I think it’s very normal to just expect cash (for honeymoon, or saving for a house to buy, or home repairs). I just think it’s odd to ask for personal things that benefit one half of the couple.

I'm talking about crush here because first relationship might have ended badly. But someone you liked, do you still reminisce those days and still want to know how they're doing? Even if you are not that in contact with them anymore.

I (F), 5'9 met a very cute guy (M 5'2) and am set off to date this Saturday. So since there's a 7 inch difference between us and I AM [much] TALLER I have some worries about dating in general... And sex?🫠🫠🫠

Is it hard(er) to make it work? I suspect it's easier for men taller than their gf/wives... But what about the other way around? Are certain positions like doggy / missionary etc impossible? Because I would love doggy positions but am worried about the impossibility of doing so🫠🫠🫠

Also I'm worried I might get self conscious. I'm super sub / bottom so I am not sure about anything at this point... Still though, this weekend we're having the first date, but I'm curious of your opinion, specifically from those (especially taller womens' POV) who've had experience?

Thanks ☺️

I’m new to having sex and every time I’ve had it with my girlfriend I can never finish, it’s weird because I am really attracted to her but every time we have sex she ends up finishing before me and then she won’t want to keep going, we can end up going for up to 30 mins and I still won’t be close, it offends her aswell because she thinks I’m not attracted to her, I think it probably has something to do with me always thinking about it, but I’ve also always had a specific way of masterbating which isn’t the same motion as having sex, it’s just weird becuase it’s usually the other way round that girls can’t finish so I’m confused why I can’t, is there something medically wrong with me or is it just because I’m new to sex

I feel like I will never have a boyfriend ever in this life. Never even held hands with a guy. What about me is so disgusting?

I just want to know that there is this option…at least I won’t be dying untouched/disgusted.

I found a kitten that had been hit around one of the roads near my house. It was just a small grey kitten with white paws. I don't think I had been very long since it was hit.

I pulled over when I saw it was a kitten and checked to see if it was alive. It wasn't. I spoke to thr house nearby and the guy said it probably belonged to one of the st around here. I didn't go up to his house. He called out to me from the porch while I was in the road. No one was going to move her.

I put on my hazards and and used a plastic bag to pick it up and put it on a towel. Then put the towel in a box. I was only a couple minutes from home so I took it home and dug a hole about a foot deep.

I buried her with flowers and gave a small prayer for her. It just would hurt me too much to see it in the road everyday on my way to work.

I mentioned it to my mom and she just went off on me. She said that it was weird and compared me to some woman on a show she watched where this lady found road kill the feed her guests. She said it's something Jeffery Dahmer would do.

She said it was stupid and I shouldn't have done it and it was dangerous. The entire thing took maybe a few minutes. But she said I should've called my brother to at least tell him I was doing something stupid. She just kept using the word road kill. And I know that's technically right. But thinking about the kitten that word felt vulgar.

She said I should've left it since it was already dead and the crows would've gotten it. And that it can get all of our animals sick. I made sure to bury it where my dogs couldn't get it and it was about a foot deep. She kept saying that I should focus on what's in my four walls and go give our animals a bath and trim their nails instead of doing what I did.

I just feel bad now. Like I'm weird or dirty. I know my families never understood the way I think but nowI just feel even more like there's something wrong with me that I can't fix. I'm not religious, but I feel like I see God in everything. And that included that kitten in the road. I just don't think my family gets me. And I don't know if I'm the problem.

I am considering moving out of the United States, for several reasons. But I have to ask, is it worth moving out of the United States?

Was talking to a guy and he had two kids with a woman who already four kids by three different men. Him and his children’s mom are not together anymore. But I cannot understand why a man or a woman would want to have children with someone who has multiple children by multiple people.

Je pose cette question parce que ma mère me disait que quand j'étais petit je pleurais sans faire de bruit et qu'elle se rendait pas compte de temps en temps
