The part that really got me was Sansa. I had to stand up at one point and ace around, I was so annoyed with how her character changed.

Comment on Should we keep problematic posts visible rather than deleting them? in ~life.women

We removed posts or comments if they were not meeting the expectations of our community guidelines, some things just should not stay up and be discussed.
Granted, I have no idea what the original post was about, but if what you are saying is true; that the OP wasn't wanting to be educated on the said topic but to preach, then it doesn't belong here. It's just bad faith and I'm in complete agreement with this approach.

With CI, it's clear how much the love and effort have gone into the game and I'm enjoying it.

Comment on Strides, and back slides: A discussion on where women are, where we'd like to be, what we've lost in ~life.women
Femilip LinkI consistently see fellow women having sexist views and are not being called out on. Or inserting their own opinions on what other women or doing. Example 1: I was in one of those, "Are we dating...and where do you worry we've stalled?
I consistently see fellow women having sexist views and are not being called out on. Or inserting their own opinions on what other women or doing.
Example 1: I was in one of those, "Are we dating the same Guy?" Groups and I had to leave. Women constantly saying that we should always let men pay, let's not get into our masculine energy, and that it is their job.
Example 2: An edit of a show online and a woman commented on how poorly the woman was aging. Is this nice? Is this appropriate? Why does it matter? What do you get out of making that opinion known?
Example 3: I've had two women in my life make the following comments about other women:
-They shamed a friend for calling their fiance their partner. Said they would be offended if they got promoted to fiance and were being called partner. Why the fuck does it matter? It's not your relationship.
-They expressed a friend was not practicing self-preservation by having a one night stand. Again, who the fuck cares? Let them do what they want.It is just really frustrating as a woman hear so many women in my life and online preach feminism and see them not practice it themselves. Let's leave judgement of others behind us.

I don't comment in that space, it isn't for me to contribute. But, I did find it helpful to see how men relate to each other in these spaces. I can see prospectives that I didn't understand or see before, just as my boyfriend experiences with r/TwoXChromosomes. Hell, only commenting here to express that these spaces are needed from both sides.

I bought an ereader and also bought a few different books I thought I would enjoy, but man...I can't.
At this point, I might just start off with trashy romance novels and go from there. Put the training wheels back on for now for my attention span.

I see so many people online having goals for how many books they will read a week/month and I cannot keep my attention on a book for long. I went from reading Tolkien's "dry", but beautiful, narration for multiple hours when I was younger to this. I feel like an iPad kid lol.

I keep seeing couscous used more and more with greens and I'm tempted to try it. So far I've just been using it without a protein. Tomato and parsley sounds like a good start.

I haven't seen the movie yet, but hard agree. It's easy to tell how a man truly is deep down based on their reaction towards things like this.
This doesn't mean they aren't allowed to not like the movie as a film, but as long as they agree with the general narrative of it.
