Did Lifting Turn You Mean?

That’s girl inches though :laughing:

A girl will take it at face value if you say you are 6 ft at 5’10.

It’s like the 'my ex had a 9 inch schnoobiedoodle" rhetoric when… in reality the girl 3 inches off lol.

I don’t like lying about my height. But at 5’7, I pass for 5’9 when women have asked me how tall I am.

Very few porn actresses have a previous partner that is at or over 9".

First, Id like to say that I’m really bummed to hear this.

But Second- my brother is quadruplegic and has been married twice, and numerous girlfriends post neck breakage, prior to marriage.

So there is hope.

As it pertains to this thread: Guys know dick about shit when it comes to what women value. Its really that simple. All this 6 figure, superman bullshit is almost entirely imaginary.

Of course the guy who has spent years on [insert characteristic here] thinks that it will impress women. Its just their best guess though.

Slavery was “just what it is” at one point as well. Does it make it right? Absolutley not. What’s your point.

Meh, you can always just lie about your height and your age (if you can pull it off)

The issue is that he uses data that clearly bears out in real world scenarios. When you hear someone say something and then SEE it with your own eyes, you can kinda “gauge” what the correct answer is and from that you make the correct choices. It’s really not that difficult.

Kind of like believing in religion and an afterlife. There’s absolutely ZERO credible real-world evidence of either being real or existing whatsoever. It’s just a cope to deal with the terror of non-existence after death (which is totally understandable).

Thank you for the kind words

I’m still reeling from a combination of shock and devastation.

I knew something was wrong/had to be wrong given how much had gone wrong with me over the course of my lifetime

I knew what EDS was… but the prevalence is only 1 in 5-10,000 therefore I was of the thought “surely not”.

Now I need to get past the grieving process… which I imagine will take some time.

Even if I was fertile. Having a kid means there’s roughly a 50% chance I pass this disease down to the kid.

My brother doesn’t have this disease… but he is almost certainly a carrier. I brought this up to him and he got angry “what bullshit! Of course I’m having kids! You think you know everything!”

But I actuslly do know what I’m talking about here. For every kid he has, 50% chance he passes down this life altering, serious genetic disease. A disease that will rack up obscene medical bills as the child is going to have to go through repeat surgeries and whatnot… with EDS you also need to have a cardiologist, pain management physicisn, psychiatrist, psychologist and more on board.

Very expensive

That’s if he can have kids to begin with… My fertility is impacted due to pituitary insufficiency… brother doesn’t seem to have hypogonadism however both parents had serious fertility issues

Took them almost a decade to concieve us… with six rounds of IVF… and we were still three months premature.

The stars were aligned, almost as if the universe was sending a message “hey! Don’t have kids!”

I tell people with EDS, or those who are carriers NOT to have kids. It’s simply not fair for the child.

I know its a blunt, cruel statemrnt to make. But how can one justify having a child that has a high chance of inheriting a dangerous, life limiting disease.

Not fair for the kid… I will always be a burden on society/drain on healthcare… I willxalways be a walking pharmacy… this isn’t what I signed up for… yet these are the cards i’ve been dealt.

I’ll adapt until I can’t deal with the pain anymore. Who knows when I’ll reach that stage. If it’s vEDS I’ll just drop dead randomly within the next 20 years. I doubt it’s vEDS though. More likely hEDS or cEDS.

I’m not going to engage with someone whos profile is slightly newer than the timeframe in which the last one was ban-hammered.

Except to say this- by demonstrating that you can’t differentiate between what something is and what it means, I don’t really care about what you say on this subject.

I am just happy to see he got the boot!

That’s off the rails. What next? Something about Hitler?

Yeah, I like how he edited it twice to make it more juicy.

Generalizations like that aren’t based on real life. I’ve been married for over 30 years and I’m almost 60. I’ve learned a few things about people in general, including half the people, women.

Paraphrasing MLK, don’t judge people by their gender but by the content of their character…

Who are you referring to? And what is “ban-hammered”?

Well I’m going to be 51 in a couple weeks and have been married for 15 years, and I’ve learned a thing or two too. :smiling_face:

I was referring to Nahzent. Ban hammer is when a profile is found to be a troll and the mods lock it or otherwise ban that poster.

Your missing my point. The point was that just because something is a certain way doesn’t mean it’s just or morally right.

Do you want a cookie or something? Congrats, you did what most people do anyways.

Unsure if you’re talking to me, but I don’t disagree with that at all.

I give up. The OP posted what seemed like a serious question. I relied respectfully and thoughtfully. From there I can’t even connect half of these replies and comments to the original subject and I sure don’t understand the hostility seeming to come from some.

Best wishes to all of you, but I am not interested in debating or battling with any keyboard warriors. I gave this forum a try and I’ve already had more than enough.
