Bro is expressing distaste in a fashion accessory, why you so bitter and taking it so hard? You ok?
He can say he doesn't like them. That's not what he said. He said he's disappointed that so many women are getting them. I asked him why he's disappointed that random women are choosing to get a piercing he dislikes? What do those random women have to do with him exactly?
"so many" just means the women he's interacting with have them more often than they previously remember.
It's their own anecdotal, subset. A sample.
They are discussing the observation they have on the women they are meeting. Not all women.
To assume they are describing all women, or further, passing some meaningful judgement on all women is an invention of the reader
No you went on a rant about if op is "entitled" to those women. That's just a fucking weird take from someone talking about disappointment in a fashion choice that people choose. Don't reframe your weird comment.
Again, what is he disappointed in? Do you not know how fucking language works? Are you unfamiliar with the use of the word "dissappointed"? For example, you might say: Your mom is disappointed when you ask her to send you another 300.00 for the 5th time this month, because in her mind "she raised you to be better than that". She's pissed because you asked her. But she's disappointed because your actions do not meet her expectations for you.
So I'll ask again, what is he disappointed in? Why is he disappointed with the choices of random women who have nothing to do with him?
Edit: clarified I wasn't trying to make a statement on the personal life of the commenter who i don't know. Just a snarky example.
Okay setting aside your clearly toxic and unkind attitude that is betraying what this is really about, some personal issue that is making you seeth, why is the word "disappointment" triggering YOU so hard?
I would be disappointed if my date comes home with me and takes off their shirt and they have a tattoo of Sonic the Hedgehog on their chest. Because I don't want to look at Sonic when we're together, does that make a lick of fucking sense? Do you understand that people have consensual relationships and preferences for their partners?
Yeah I'm toxic, you're the one who flipped out at me for asking the commenter a question 😂 I'll admit it was aggro but I don't know you and was not trying to make a statement about your personal life that I have no knowledge of. I was showing the way that word functions and how it differs from other direct feelings in response to something. Disappointment is a specific emotion with a specific meaning.
He didn't say that if someone he dated had nipple piercings he'd be dissappointed, he said he was "disappointed so many girls" are choosing to get them. Don't try and reframe what he said. You don't have to come up with elaborate allegories we can talk about what he said right there.
I quizzed you why you thought a normal, common expression of aesthetic taste became a sexual entitlement issue to you immediately, it was weird, it remains weird, you are weird, every comment makes you seem weirder about it, and I don't think this is a healthy place for you to be engaging and tripling down on. I'm blocking you for your good as much as mine.
Lol yeah okay have fun dude you're still mischaracterizing what I said. I never said anything about him having preferences. 🙄
yeah, that's your entire thing. Ripping into him for having preferences. How dare he, and how dare he have an emotional reaction to his preferences. The fact he isn't dead inside proves he isn't married to you. ;-)
You're just petulantly refusing to actually respond to what I have said at this point. I don't care about his preferences.
and yet, here you are...
Yes, here I am, not making any arguments about his preferences. 🙄
and yet, there you go again, bitching about his preferences.
I get it. English is a weird, difficult language, and it isn't your first. You're probably from northern Europe, I presume? Take it from absolutely everyone here telling you you misunderstood that you misunderstood. It's a learning experience. Being wrong isn't the end of the world for you. Grow from it.
One minute, you're rambling about your engorged member, and the next you're demonstrating again that you still don't understand what I was saying. Fuck off.
we know what you're saying. You're saying you don't understand English.
No, I'm not. If you don't know what the word disappointed means, you should look it up.
everyone here is aware of your attempts to use English via a dictionary.
It's not just based on the dictionary it's literally what the word fucking means. Jesus christ. Re-read my comments. I have absolutely no desire to continue this. I've made my fucking point. Leave me alone.
right. The point is that you aren't fluent in English, and so are LITERALLY using a dictionary to communicate. By using only one literal definition of a word, without considering context, subtext or how the word is used, you both don't understand the conversation nor are you able to contribute in kind.
You'll note I discussed the context subtext and use of the word in my comments. 🙃 that's what this whole thing has been about... sigh
Can you also stop trying to insinuate that I'm not an anglophone person? It's fucking weird
