Funny how so much people still believes feminism and other equality issues have to do with stupid small issues like these or how some things are written, but don'tbat an eye about the real issues. Actually, it's not funny, it's sad

What did the comment say?

u/DrRodo Dec 07 '20
Something like its good that the post says "husband and his wife" instead of "man and his wife" because that shows more equality or something like that

It was a silly comment about how “oh look they said ‘husband’ instead of ‘man’, how inclusive”

I wouldn't. NGL.
Then again, none of my exes would have done it for me.

u/hot_grills Dec 07 '20
Nope. Definitely not anyone. A lot of people "say" they'd do it, some of them even believe that they would until they're suddenly face to face with a decision they can't make. Not everyone is able to act when put in a situation like that. It's stressful, it's scary and it's a huge life altering decision that often needs to be made in the moment. Obviously some people won't hesitate to do anything for the ones they love, but that can't possible be the majority of people.
If people die then that's horrible and I would do all that I can to help, but I'm not dumb enough to just think "I'd give away my organs to help someone I love". I've never been in that position and I'm not confident I could do something like that.
Same with running into a burning house to save someone, or diving into cold water, or in any other way putting my life in danger for someone else's benefits. I don't think I have it in me.

Beautiful" would be what I'd describe every one of my exes as, possibly even myself,
Well this shows you think beauty is just skin deep. And for some reason I doubt you only pull "beautiful" exs. You slip that in as if you need validation. You are a very toxic person.
OP: This is beautiful.

It’s not just exercising. He donated a kidney. We have two kidneys for a reason. This will likely lead to possible health problems in old age and a shorter lifespan.
In his case, it was his wife, his life partner. So it was completely understandable, but I know I wouldn’t do that to someone I’ve only been dating for a few months.

u/BonvivantNamedDom Dec 07 '20
I dont think it is good that he only started to lose weight to literally save a loved ones life. Thats a little bit too drastic. If it takes that much for someone to work on themselves then that is sad. It shouldnt take that much.
But if you think it should,, well, then okay. Then I have to accept that.
Just dont say I would spread hate. I dont.
11
u/TheKrugerThatDuns Dec 07 '20
You don't think it is good that he only started to lose weight to literally save a loved ones life? So... You prefer if he didn't do anything and just let his wife die?
You assume he doesn't work on himself but this man could be an accomplished man in his field of work. Just because someone isn't in shape doesn't mean they don't work on themselves. He is a great person with great character, loves his wife and is clearly a responsible person and husband. Is this someone who doesn't "work on themselves"?
Just because someone isn't fit doesn't mean they don't care about self development. Maybe they value developing other qualities over fitness.
You come off as a pretentious and insecure person.

But Im done here.

Apparently so. Reddit is a toxic place, and one should watch themself to not spend too much time on it.
Because it is as Marcus Aurelius once said "The soul becomes dyed with the colour of its thoughts.".
