Alright, here's the backstory:

Eris, the goddess of being a bit of a dick, didn't get invited to a wedding because she's a dick. But she came anyway, and brought an apple that said "for the prettiest goddess". Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite happened to be at the wedding, and they had a bit of an argument over who was the prettiest. Eventually, they decided to go ask Paris, the king of Troy.

All three of the goddeses decided to bribe Paris. Hera was like "I'm queen of the gods and I can make you king of Asia." Athena was like "I'm the goddess of strategy and I can make you the best general who ever lived." And Aphrodite was like "Fuck those old hags, I can hook you up with the hottest babe in the world." Paris chose to be a horndog and said Aphrodite was the prettiest. So Aphrodite yoinked Helen from her loving husband and told her to bang Paris.

Helen's husband, Menelaus, was unhappy with this. Fortunately for him, he'd just got done founding ancient Greek NATO, and he called in all his favours. So every hero and warrior in all of Greece sailed off to Troy to get Helen back. Unfortunately for Menelaus, the Trojans had massive walls. So everyone spent a while killing each other pointlessly while the gods took sides and got involved in more petty drama.

Eventually Achilles goes on a gay rampage and dies, and Odysseus builds a giant wooden horse. Odysseus sneaks his best troops into Troy and they sack the place and steal all their money. And everyone thought it was awesome and high fived and chest bumped.

So then all the Greeks, including Odysseus, get back into their ships full of treasure and decide to go home. And unfortunately for Odysseus, Poseidon fucking hates him for no reason. Which is a rough position to be in during a sea voyage!

    You should definitely see a doctor about this because it does sound like a problem.

    But,

    It's also possible you just don't like sex. You might be on the asexual spectrum. Your vagina might be reacting like this because you just don't want to fuck. Or maybe you'll fix the medical issue, be able to fuck, and then decide you don't like it. Nobody can know if that's gonna happen but you.

    Talk to the doctor, figure out what the problem is. But please don't feel pressured to enjoy sex. If that ain't you, well it doesn't have to be. Besides, there's lots of ways to have a fun naughty time other than penetration.

    We used the word "retard" to mean slow for a long long time. But when it became a psychological diagnosis, the colloquial usage shot way up. Maybe some of the people calling others "r*tards" were speaking French, but I think the majority were inspired by hatred. So, the people who care about these things did two things: we changed the name of the diagnosis, and we stopped using the word. People don't use that word nearly as much anymore.

    I think a similar thing is going on with that word you used. "N*rcissist". It had a somewhat valid use in the 1800s for a while, but it pretty quickly became about a psychiatric disorder. In the modern day, the majority using the word are inspired by hate. I don't think most people using it are hateful, but I think they got the idea from hateful people. NPD is really stigmatised, and I think the people who care about these things should do two things: we should change the name of the diagnosis, and we should stop using the word.

    That's a thought destroying phrase "oh, this person has bad-person-ness, so that explains the fact that they're a bad person".

    Maybe narcissism isn't this magic quality that turns people bad for no reason. Maybe effects have causes, and bad behaviour can be understood.

    Look, I don't always agree with dbzer0 and the flotilla. I think they're a bunch of purity testing wangrods sometimes, and they were even taking time out of their day to libel Piefed for no reason during the original Tesseract callout.

    But I don't believe that these "death threats" are a serious problem, seriously connected to db0. I think this death threat thing is made up. It's awful convenient how if you're being boycotted or ridiculed for your beliefs and values, you can just make a post about some death threats and get sympathy. And it ain't DARVO when you got no history of abusing the other person before calling out their politics.

    Therians, also known as therianthropes, are individuals who identify as one or more nonhuman animals, partially or entirely, on a personal level, which they call their theriotypes.[2][3][4][5] Therians are often considered a subset of otherkin.[6][7] The enduring experience of identifying as a nonhuman animal, as well as the broader lived experience of therians, is commonly referred to as therianthropy.[8][9]

    When I was a kid in the 60s my hippie uncle told me that what gave him power was stuffing a quail egg in his foreskin and then his elderly neighbour would put her false teeth in her ass and he’d boink her and the egg would come out of his foreskin and she’d chomp it in her ass with the false teeth. I had no idea what he was talking about because I was only 7 when he told me this but now that I’m elderly I love sticking my false teeth in my ass to chew quail eggs from nice men.
