I am Anti-vax

I am anti-vax and I don’t care what you think. I am absolutely sick and tired of seeing people that are anti-vax getting ridiculed and bullied on Reddit because of their choice.

You need to understand we have good reason to feel this way and that by simply attacking us or belittling us will not change our minds. We will not be silenced.

I for one will never have another one again. Not a chance in hell, I don’t care what you say to try and convince me, I’ve fallen for that trap too many times before.

Are most men plagued with skid marks in their underwear, or am I just meeting unlucky/unhygienic people??

So I’m honestly just not sure at this point. I once lent some white basketball shorts to my dad when he wasn’t doing so great financially, and was living with me at my apartment. When I finally got them back after literal weeks (he’s the opposite of a punctual person) there were… um… well πŸ’© stains on the back area of them. Thoroughly grossed out, trying to be understanding, I proceeded to wash them 4 times, ended up under my bed folded up, stains still there, just to be washed again every now and then because I’m kinda afraid to wear them.

At first, I thought this is something that was an odd β€˜my dad thing’, until I got my hands on my boyfriend’s white, Naruto boxer briefs. They’re absolutely adorable but I felt pretty awkward when putting them in the wash, only to notice there were skid marks in his underwear too.

I also remember seeing them in various places like visiting my brother and accidentally noticing his underwear thrown over the side of the hamper, as well as some bedrooms of guy friends’ of my boyfriend’s, when I’d be invited to go hang with them.

This honestly, and completely undisrespectfully, troubles me. Idk about EVERYONE, but every woman I know wipes that bum over and over again until the paper is as bright as, well, paper, even if it takes 25 sheets… and my mom agrees. None of us have had that problem in our underwear since we were 6 at the very latest.

So, my question is, are you guys just spending your entire lives wiping your bootyhole incorrectly and no one ever correcting you? Did your mothers not teach you how to do it right, or are y’all just slowly forgetting over the years?…because I honestly can’t think of any logical reason that I know this many people with skid marks in nearly every pair of underwear, and they’re all men.

It seems silly, but it’s a legitimate question I just can’t get out of my head πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

EDIT: Sooooo um y’all I’m beyond absolutely beyond amazed at the FEW THOUSAND people I’ve got talking about bootyholes in the comments rn. I’ve never gotten this much feedback on any post anywhere, not just Reddit. Thank you verrr much for the feedback and help, each and every one of you have been helpful and kind.

When I first posted this, I was doing my best to respond to every single new comment but it seems that may be impossible at this point as there’s a new comment quite literally every two seconds. Thank you for everyone’s suggestions and thoughts though ❀️ I needs to go have quite the interesting yet

AITA for being upset that I’m not involved in my brothers wedding which I am paying for?

I (F31) have a brother (M29) and he is getting married next year. We lost our Mum in 2012 and our Dad in 2016. We are each others only living relatives. I have a good job, I earn a lot of money (Β£150,000 per year). My brother also has a good job, but doesn’t earn anywhere. near as much (Β£35,000). We we raised to always look after each other and share. My partner and I are child free.

Over the years I have paid for my brothers Masters degree, paid the down payment on his house (our parents rented, so there is no family home). I will also be paying for my future SIL (F26) and my brother to have future rounds of IVF. SIL works part-time and earns about 15k a year, her parents are not well off.

My brother asked if I could contribute to the cost of the wedding. I said I’d pay for it, as is is small with 100 guests, and set up a wedding account for them into which I put Β£25,000 which they both have access to.

SIL’s entire family are involved as bridesmaids and groomsmen. My husband and I are guests. Brother and SIL have been going around venues with her family, and I get emailed the costing if it’s selected.

I told my brother I don’t mind paying for the wedding but I feel really weird that everyone else is involved in the decision and I’m just involved with paying. Brother has said that I’m not our parents, I can’t replace our parents and that’s why I’m not involved. Why can’t I just do something nice without making him feel shit. I feel like an asshole for causing drama, but also feel taken advantage of. AITA?

UPDATE: This is in the UK, in Northern Ireland to be exact. 35k is a good salary. I don't have student debt to pay off because I didn't go to uni. I was in the military before becoming a commercial pilot. My brother's salary will increase as at his company, he needed a master's to progress beyond his current rung. SIL works part-time because she has a medical issue, she will never be able to work full-time because of this. Related - it is unclear if this is impacting fertility. In NI you get one round of IVF on the NHS which they did. They paid for two more at 8k each. SIL family paid for another and stipulated they wouldn't be able to afford to pay for a wedding if that was the case. Brother and SIL have been emotionally through the wringer with fertility issues, it isn't a cynical attempt to get money. For all of y'all talking about adoption, there is some serious BS about SIL's illness meaning they aren't "attractive candidates". I am close with m

I was promised a job as a server with a competitive wage of $12/hr - $26/hr + tips + benefits. I'm only getting $2.13/hr + tips, practically no benefits, and am receiving unpaid training.

So, yeah... Like the title states, I was recently promised a job as a server with a competitive wage of $12/hr - $26/hr + tips + benefits. I came into work today, and after an hour and a half of waiting for the company to get my paperwork sorted out, I was told that I would be getting paid $2.13/hr and that most of my benefits would become active only after a year of working for the company. I asked about the discrepancy, and my manager just kinda shrugged it off, saying that Indeed doesn't always have reliable information and that they literally aren't allowed to pay us any more than $2.13/hr. It also seems like my training for this week will be unpaid, which seems, uh, kinda sketchy. Oh, and I also requested to be placed on afternoon and evening shifts, and they put me on morning shifts for the rest of the week instead. It's been on heck of a first day. Is this normal? Because I'm seriously considering walking out at this point...

My 21 year old niece, slapped her boss square in the face in a team meeting and quit her job. I am a proud uncle. It was THE topic of conversation at the family Xmas-eve dinner.

So my niece finished her associates degree last December from her local community college and since then has been working as a secretary and receptionist for a small sized tax and accounting firm, and preparing certain basic forms as well. Anyways I have heard from my sister or my niece a lot of complaints about her job in terms of management and coworkers, who are mostly men from 40-65. It was the main topic of conversation at the family Xmas-eve dinner.

Some things that came up at X-mas eve dinner. She says she has complained to HR multiple times about the below and that they just tell her "We will look into it", and nothing ever happens.

  1. Management often tell her comments, usually negative, due to her appearance. Comments such that she should get a boob job in order to "improve her performance at the reception desk", or that she should come to work wearing a "tighter dress" to "highlight that figure for us". My niece is a plain-Jane type that prefers to be well covered up at all times, so obviously these comments are quite offensive for her.
  2. Her boss (~50ish) frequently calls her the wrong name. He dislikes her "ethnic" sounding name and calls her the white-washed version of her name. Whenever she complains about it his attitude towards my niece is "tough shit, I'm your boss".
  3. Has noticed that management was not paying her for her overtime hours, though she's an hourly employee and legally guaranteed time and a half for overtime hours.
  4. Was offered a promotion with the condition of going out to dinner with her boss. She refused the promotion and her boss goes around the office trash talking her performance because he didn't get his way.
  5. Boss makes sexist comments that women are incapable of holding positions of authority in the workplace and make "good assistants and secretaries" because women "are designed to serve and obey". And that she should be grateful for "this opportunity at our business".

It all came to a head when there was a office meeting as a team building exercise for the holidays or something. Upper management, the CEO, and her boss, and a number of other people in the office were there at the meeting. At that meeting her boss put his hand on her shoulder while she was sitting at the table and he was standing behind her, and he made negative remarks about my niece's workplace performance. He stated she needs to strive to be "more compliant in life and never say no at work" and needs to follow the example of his obedien
