Fun fact: In traditional Buddhist lore, women can't reach Nirvana.
Instead, if they collect enough good karma, they are reborn as a man.

I'd guess that in most of the cultures globally regrettably it is still more desirable to be a man. And when men feel that way I am always confused. Do they think their mother, their wife, or their daughters are second class citizens?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago

Yes. Yes, they do think that.

To expand on this, many seem to either not realize it or not accept that's what they're doing.

"I respect women, but I believe we must have entirely separate roles."

"I respect women, but their place is in the home."

"I respect women. I even believe they're superior in fields like childcare, cleaning and cooking."

"I respect women, even though they're not as good at STEM tasks."

I've never understood that either. I've usually hated when I'm perceived as a man.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Well put, sir! You're truly a gentleman and a scholar. Wait... Did you mean to imply you're a woman? On the Internet? Wouldn't your delicate constitution give you the vapors or something if you were to see something unseemly, or, dare I even say it, obsc*ne? There is no need to thank me for the censorship, by the way. Perhaps you should turn off your computer and consult the man of the house. It's the glowing button there on the front, sweetie.

In all seriousness, I would love to know the overlap among people who assume others on the internet are men, people who subscribe to OnlyFans, and people who are transphobic. That would have to be some tangled logic and Olympic level rationalization. I bet it's more than one, and I bet I've already seen one interviewed at some kind of a rally.

Men cant reach Nirvana either. If you're on your best behavior you will be reborn as a cat.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

That's what reaching Nirvana is.

daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn

that's... wow

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Keep that up and you'll be reborn as a muskrat

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago

nah. I could be born with hydrocephalus and still be smart enough to know Elon's a chud and his fanboys are pitiful.

[–] lowleveldata 3 points 1 week ago

IIRC Nirvana is more like void instead of heaven. So I'm not sure is it good or bad even if they consider men are closer to that.

She should have been a son

When you have memories of 2 reincarnations and still couldn't make a fortune yourself

Skill issue

You know being born into wealth isn't a great deal either. Does Musk seem happy to you? Or any of the other ghouls in that orbit?

There is plenty of evidence that large amounts of wealth has a similar effect on the owner as brain damage.

No, you don't want that. Having enough to be comfortable is good, but wealth is not.

True happiness comes from receiving 8 chicken nuggets in your 6-pack.
