      The scope of these changes are unprecedented!

    Isn't that the nature of change?

    Some people will never get with the times. The world is changing rapidly and humans are simply not built to adapt this quickly.

    People sure  bought a lot during Covid. Isn't that adaption buying new stuff or finding new ways to buy old stuff.

    I must say that statement is the first one I could think of that does not make sense.  Who else, besides men, should control the subject of the very thing that defines us, masculinity.  Obviously, men will disagree on the subject, but we must be the ones to control the narrative and define what is means to be masculine.  

    Every individual is free to decide their definitions on any number of subjects. And While individual definition can effect universal ones., you can in no way expect that your definition become the standard. This is moderated with Icons.

     

    In order to communicate there has to be standards. Deviants can still communicate with the norms, it just requires understanding and acceptance.

    @Troy you in particular and Men in general can define masculinity however you choose. If you want or need women to accept your definition you may run into difficulty. It i easier to change your pool of prospects than to change your ideals.

    in addition homosexual men may have a different view of Masculinity than Heterosexual men. There are heterosexual women that are attracted to guy men. Just as there are men who fantasize about Nuns. There is a frisson created when the object of your afection is in some way transgressive or contrary to the more, practices and customs for your group.

  3. I heard a female panelist break down Prince's appeal. He begs from a position of strength. Listen to the end of Beautiful Ones.

    A coworker told me If I was your girlfriend sounds like an orgasm. The brain is the biggest sex organ. And Prince mines this, with his inversion of perceived sex roles. So he is appealing to the that inner wild woman that wants to break the rules. Maybe he appeals to women because he gets their frequency. 

    I don't think there  is a comparison between an actor who was voted sexiest man. And the Man who is without question a musical genius.  I am biased being a former fan of pre Diamond and Pearls Prince.  He is in that rare category of performer that transcends their Genre: Maya Angelou; Muhammad Ali, Pele Aretha Franklin Richard Pryor  Miles Davis. They are Iconic. And so dope that you have to acknowledge their greatness.

    Given that he is an ex-president with the best health care imaginable Trump may outlive us both 🙂

     

    How about I give you 4 to 1 ($100 to your $25) that Trump does no time in prison before the end of 2024?  That does not include house arrest.

     

    Make it a guilty sentence by the end of 2024. He has to beat the charges in an appeal for yo to win. And he has to go to prison for me to win. Winning is conditional on the outcome of his appeal.
    So if he  isn't sentenced you win. 

  5. They will most likely use the RICO act. To show the the Trump Organization is criminal. In which case they will seize his assets. He will go to jail broke. One of his children or Jared Kushner will cop a plea bargain. Most likely Jared am Ivanka. Since his money isn't tied up in the Trump Organization.

     

    Perjury, Tax evasion, and two counts of treason. His actions will lead to his conviction on at least three out of the 34 counts.

  6. This is from https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0151919/bio


    She was the daughter of Adelaide (Glaser) and George Channing (who was born George Christian Stucker). Carol's paternal grandfather, George Stucker, was the son of German immigrants, and Carol's paternal grandmother, Clara, was African-American. Carol's maternal grandparents, Otto Glaser and Paulina Ottmann, were both of German origin. Carol stated in her autobiography, "Just Lucky, I Guess", that her father, who was light-skinned, used one accent to help "pass" in the white world and another around the house, where he sang gospel music to entertain his daughter.

  7. I was also interested when he said that he had mastered Time. Since I have been qualifying time for the last three years. However I gained no new insights from his particular practice.

     

    Although I have been steadily making new discoveries. In the process of starting a business to do Astrological consultations and producing magically charged talismans using time.

    Because her brain is actually the female's sex organ, older  women who date young men are  really lowering their standards, catering to their baser instincts.

    I ain't hatin on 'em, but I ain't lovin on them either. 

    Don't hate, mate. (comma is optional depending on your position(supine, noncommital, full frontal et cetera.
