Men without beards "cannot be distinguished from women"

I wish 🙄

vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works · 6 pts · 185d (1 reply)

As a man with long hair and a beard I can assure you that some folks still mistake me for a woman from behind. I have found a full proof solution to this, that being I just wear a surplus Czech field jacket since no self respecting woman would wear that, then I leave California and the mistake starts up again.

I'm mostly joking. If other folks mistake me for a woman that's a them probablem.

Hey man. The big Hootie burger is good. Sometimes a man just wants a big Hootie.

chaogomu@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 185d

Since I've not set foot in a Hooters in close to 25 years, I had to look up their menu just to be sure.

Hey - some of their food is alright, and the service has generally been excellent any time I've eaten there. As long as those 2 things remain true, I don't really care how they dress.

I see posts like this and wonder if I'm looking at an outlier, or if this is genuinely 80% of their voter base

The right already has a well developed pipeline for this, if the D's (or a left leaning/progressive) group tapped into it they would shave years off developing their own pipeline while also being able to directly reach Cletus's of America.

A tactic that only grifters on the right seem to have the balls to employ

Just to check if we're on the same page, do you consider US Dems as "right" or something else?

If you look at polls there is like 33% of the population who will support Trump no matter what. Of those, about half are relatively normal people who are just kind of stupid and from areas where conservatism is the norm and would support everything literally anyone did if they were Republicans. The other half are these people.

80% of their voter base has a brother or cousin like this, and they'll be the ones ostracized if they don't condone it. Infinite forgiveness for family and bloodline.

I'm almost positive this is on Fremont Street in Las Vegas, and this asshole looks exactly like the piece of shit that would bring his 6 kids on a "family vacation" to Vegas. Last time I was there, Fremont Street had really gone downhill.

It's the "There's only 2 pronouns, male and female" crowd.

thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 7 pts · 184d (1 reply)

anyone who thinks that "There’s only 2 pronouns, male and female" should go fuck themself, or better, go educate themself

DeltaWingDragon@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 183d

I think you meant male-self or female-self.

Wait no, I should have said male or female instead of you!

Wait no, I can't even say I?

Ouch, look at the arch in the low back of the girl on the left. She better marry an orthopedist, chiropractor or sometjing. That lumbar is going to be hurting all the time in 10 to 15 years.

My personal conspiracy theory is there’s a social media wide psyop focused on reducing popular critique of the right into easily dismissed personal insults.

I sure am glad the women’s beauty standard police have joined the liberal cause. Also, make sure to direct some hate at the kids. They surely have all kinds of agency in where they’re going, what they’re doing, and a wealth of knowledge about modern politics

Bag on it all you want, but that man has 6 kids which is probably 6 more than most adults on this site. As long as he isn’t a complete scumbag he will likely he will pass most of his views and questionable morals to his kids.

Normally you have a chance to deprogram these kids through higher education but Republicans have recognized this and are trying their hardest to sabotage higher Ed.

krashmo@lemmy.world · -2 pts · 185d (7 replies)

You're not wrong. Stupid people are outbreeding smart people by orders of magnitude. Nobody wants to talk about it though because there is no socially acceptable "nice" way to deal with it. Bolstering education is about the best we can hope for but clearly that isn't going well.

ZC3rr0r@piefed.ca · 10 pts · 185d (5 replies)

Intelligence is not a transferable trait, unlike physical traits. There's no guarantee that these kids won't educate themselves and surpass their parents in intellectual capabilities. All we need is indeed better public education.

krashmo@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 185d (1 reply)

There's no guarantee of anything in life. You can say that, statistically speaking, intelligent parents raise intelligent children though. The inverse is often true as well.

kossa@feddit.org · 1 pts · 184d

Correlation, causation, and such. Anectotal: know a well educated (i.e. intelligent) family, one child dumb as fuck.

What the "intelligent parents" bring to tme table: often money, but generally resources to educate the children. Send them to better schools, fund a college education, be capable of helping them with homework, enabling their outer curriculum activities.

That's all stuff that society could provide for parents who can't, but society doesn't. Thus, statistically as you wrote,

  • intelligent parents = intelligent children
  • dumb parents = dumb children

with the occasional outliers.

Ohhhhh yes it is.

Fortunately you can mitigate heritability to a certain extent. Unless your dominant culture is anti-intellectual, in which case you're fucked.

ZC3rr0r@piefed.ca · 1 pts · 183d (1 reply)

Huh. TIL I guess. That study cites a bunch of credible sources at least, but I haven't had a chance to dig into the findings in detail yet.

That said, even per the cited paper, the difference between your kids growing up dumb or smart is primarily environmental. So, that supports my original point: Given proper education there's a good chance these kids will grow up to surpass their parents.

duncan_bayne@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 183d

That's my hope for my kids too 🤪

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 185d

there's something to that, but we shouldn't go to Idiocracy, funny movie, but still eugenic rethoric.

globally intelligence is rising, is based on education and child quality of life, that's why America is doing all it can to gut education and promote child misery.
