Phish [he/him, any]
nah
Love is kind of the point though. I don’t think most people have children for the sole purpose of having somebody take care of them when they’re older. If some people do, then sure, that’s wrong. I guess I just believe in taking care of the people you love. My parents are older and I care for them because I love them, and sure, I think it’s right to do since they’ve cared for me my entire life.
But I think we’re talking about different things here. I’m not really talking about the financial side, more the caring for side. Though sometimes the two overlap.
Some fuckin’ world we got here.
My guess is that those communities tend to attract the types of people who are more likely to commit a mass shooting, not so much that participating in abstinence from masturbation turns people into mass shooters. I’m sure it’s a very unhealthy group to socialize with though.
I think there’s a level at which masturbating and looking at porn becomes unhealthy, but there has to be a better way to address that.
My mind is about 90% a mix of Simpsons and Sopranos references so I can’t really talk shit. I don’t use them as a guide for decision making or anything though.
People still do that for redheads
