It's not babysitting if it's your own child. It's parenting.

[@PurgatoryProductions1]

yeah but the lady didn’t know he was the dad. people expect nothing from dads so they praise the bare minimum or assume they’re not the parent at all.

Babysitting is a weird term anyway. "Yes, I am sitting this baby." What.

I thought for sure he was going to say "my wife is dead" so him saying instead "I'm the wife" caught me off guard and was 10x funnier 😂

[@dragonfliesnh4204]

@@PurgatoryProductions1 but the issue is when people do know that the person is the dad, they still call it babysitting. She could have very well known he was the dad and assumed that the mom was the primary parent and figured he was giving her a break. The way it was worded, it still could apply if she knew he was the dad.

[@Helgatwb]

My ex has a lot of issues, but his attitude toward this was pretty refreshing. If one of us was working or doing errands, whoever was at home was taking care of the kids, but if one of us was going out with friends, then whoever was at home was babysitting, just as if we had hired a babysitter for a date night.

Yeah, I've had someone who was obsessed with me tell people that we slept together. People who do this don't realise just how much power you give the person that you're lying about. I didn't deny it - instead I said it was true (I wasn't dating anyone at the time), sort of. I said that when we went to 'do the deed', his genitals smelt really horrible and that he smelt like unwashed ass and that i walked outta there. And that his arousal/foreplay skills were ass too. 'Oh yeah, we fooled around and he was terrible and also smelt terrible' got the job done for whoever asked. You want details? I'll give you 'details'.

I have family alergic to eggs and deathly allergic to nuts. some brands of icecream use eggs; some icecream flavors have nuts (rockyroad etc) If something like that were to occur it'd be a roll of the dice on if we'd need an epi pen/benadril + mop & bucket, or epi pen + ambulance, or he's perfectly fine. Regardless of that, we'd still need bandages and first responders (police & possibly ambulance) because the perps wouldn't be able to walk away without a bloody nose, missing tooth, or aching gut... or possibly all three.

Noone should ever touch a persons belly, pregnant or not. I had something similar happen to me when I was at my bofriend's family reunion. I knew noone there, except for my boyfriend, his parents and grandparents. After a pretty large dinner, we were chatting with some old couple (an aunt and uncle of my mother in law) and out of nowhere she places a hand on my belly, asking when I'm due. Mind you, I wasn't even pregnant. What I was though, was highly insecure about my body to begin with and I had finally found a dress I felt somewhat comfortable in. After that I didn't wear that dress again for a long time. I often think about, wishing I had said something snappy. But I just mumbled something like 'I'm just not skinny anymore,' trying to hold back my tears. (Old) people can be so incredibly insolent and rude, it's mind boggling.

This substitute teacher got right up in her face telling her to talk (she was interrupting anyone who tried to explain what was going on.) So the friend, at the top of her lungs, just made the loudest noise she could, right in the sub's face. And since the friend couldn't exactly control the muscles in her face, she just spewed saliva all over the sub. The sub was so shocked at this, that I took the opportunity to speak up, "If you'd have shut the f*** up, you would've known that she was mute. Now, are you gonna go tidy yourself up, or..?"

Also for anyone that doesn't know, there are SA clinics you can go to if you've been assaulted that will use an assault kit and gather evidence for you then store it in a vault. They won't report it to the police until/if you decide that you want to. They can be really helpful if you change your mind in the future and decide you want to pursue justice. I have a friend who unfortunately found herself in this situation. She used the clinic and later decided to report her assault a few months after. The evidence was extremely useful in getting her justice and convicting the perpetrator.

Instead, the manager did, brought me the replacement chicken, and my money back. I said that wasn't necessary, but he said he insisted since I didn't yell at the employee.

Yup. Last year, my city’s election had a ballot measure about changing leadership in our public library. We had (have) a bunch of people wanting to get books removed for containing “sexually explicit material”, and they were wanting to change leadership to be able to try and do that. Thankfully, it didn’t pass (the difference was only like 15-18 votes or something). If it had passed though, I was prepared to go to the library with a whole list of books that “needed” to be removed for the same excuse they were trying to pull off. If they wanted to get booked banned…we’d definitely get books banned. See how fast they start complaining about some of their favorite books being gone.

[@hannajung7512]

I know that this sounds extremely dismissive, when doctors do that, and I absolutly think it can be communicated/handled better. BUT the reality of the matter is, that due to the cultural shaming of smexual active women and pregnant people, that did not want to be pregnant it happens frequently, that people, lie about their smex life. While men are more likely to pretend to have had smex on a regular and not have noticed anything out of the ordinary, when in fact they might have had pain during smex, no libido or erectile dysfunction etc. Women are more likely to claim they had no smex at all, and especially hide cases of SA. Because of that a doctor, that observes symptomes that COULD be caused by pregnancy OR where treatment could endanger a pregnancy (harm the fetus), HAVE to test no matter what the client says. In addition it is possible, to have a so called "stone baby", which is a condition, where an embryo or fetus dies in the womb, but does not abort and then calcifies, which can go unreckognised for years. In addition elevated pregnancy hormones are also an indicator for certain forms of cancer and other deseases. Why they have to be tested for, when symptomes are as unspecific as "stomache ache", especcially since it is a relatively cheap, fast and easy test.
