For my AP Lit class we read this book called "A Clockwork Orange" (aparantly it's the most banned book in the U.S.). One of the main themes of the book was 'free will'.
According to the author, to have free will means to let someone choose both, good and the bad for themselves by their own judgement. No one is absolute good or absolute bad. And nor can one force someone into those roles. Forcing someone into being good is a violation of free will (according to the book). And from my life experience, i wonder if i'll be giving up my free will if instead of bed rotting, sleeping the whole fucking day and starving, i follow whatever my mom says, get up, shower, eat, socialize, do work, pray to her God and all the stuff.

Hey y'all!
This is a bit vulnerable and embarrassing to admit, but I have been dealing with a bout of crippling low self esteem lately. I cannot, for the life of me, find myself attractive. What is making it a bit worse than usual atm is one of my friends is VERY beautiful and a wonderful person. She constantly gets approached and complemented by everyone she meets. I cannot help (DESPITE HATING MYSELF FOR DOING THIS), but feel a bit bad for myself after being overlooked and ignore over and over repeatedly. And, I mean repeatedly -I have lost count at the number of times. I know this is my own issue, and I am in no way blaming my friend at all btw! If anyone has any advice on how to deal with this in a healthier way- pls lmk! It just makes me feel like no matter what I wear, what makeup I do, ect.- It's never enough yk. I'd also like to add that I am 23 with NO relationship experience which I suppose makes me want it more idk :( PS. I am asking on here bc i cannot afford therapy lmao. Please be nice

I see so many different takes on this.
Like I thought it was for women who are shut- ins that think all men are shallow.
But I’ve also seen the side of femcels being shut-ins that hate other women and also blame women for their bad success with men. Or lesbian femcels that basically hate women exactly in the way incels do (which seems very crazy to me as a lesbian)
Idk there’s also a broader group of self identified femcels that just hate men in general for a lot of (very deserved sometimes) reasons and also happen to be shut-ins.
Also there’s the idea of incels and femcels often going hand and hand with the alt right pipeline.

How's life treating y'all?
As for me I've been going to college like a model student and my shitty parents finally giving me some freedom to go out with my friends on a strict rule that I can't do gay shit or else they'll keep me locked up again.Logged in after around a month and Forums seems quite peaceful and thankfully i don't see any useless drama anymore.

Pls does anyone remember the title of a manhua (not sure if it was a manhua or manhwa, maybe it was originally viet thai etc.) but it was a modern romance slice of life and the whole manhua was colored and kind of watercolor-like. I think the fl and ml were on a trip with their families who ended up working together to set the two up

I was 14 and my s/o was 19, it's just 5 years so it wasn't bad for me and I was the one to pursue them most of times. Our relationship was going well till things became sexual and he insisted it was okay for me to do it cause we've been together for 5 months and it was "normal" for ppl who are lovers. At first I didn't want to but later on, I accepted and I actually felt good for all those nights but then he got more and more demanding. I felt bad that if I didn't do it , it meant I don't love him. I was disgusted of myself for a long time till then he broke up with me. I felt like I was only used for my body. I was the first one to pursue them, I did the first move and all but I feel disgusted. It wasn't like he agreed immediately, we were in a situation ship till I was 15.

about question
I don't know if it is yaoi or shouned ai I also don't remember If it is one story of many or a shorter full story.
What I think I remember of the manga is that the mc is a boy who can either read minds or see the past or people he touches so he is shunned and had been living with an old woman untill she died, he stayed in the house he had lived with the lady away from people. He could communicate with animals and I remember specifically a male dog or wolf that helped him survive. I think I remember the mc had darker hair but I can be wrong.
I don't remember if the ml was hurt and saved by the mc but at some point he came there and lived with the boy for a while without knowing that the boy could read minds in the beginning though later on he got told.
The people at the village took the boy to sacrifice him (don't remember why) by throwing him into the water from a cliff, he gets saved by the ml that had some kind of power that made a hole in the water where the mc was so he did not drown.
I don't remember if the ml perhaps was some kind of deity or something but I think he had brighter hair.
If someone knows which manga I mean I would be so happy

I read it back in like 2023 I think but the manhwa had a black haired bottom and a tall fit blonde top. The blonde top was some sort of actor or celebrity and the black haired bottom had just gotten into a small controversy with him at the start of the story. I might imagine this but I think the whole "plot" of the manhwa was that some dude the blonde top had loved previously had now been "reincanated" as the black hair bottom. Also I do vividly remember that the black hair dude had a piercing like below his ass or somewhere near there?? Pleeeaseeee if anyone regognizes anything from this tell me!

I was talking about my perception of romantic relationship with a friend and turns out my opinion is quite unpopular, i think romantic relationship are tiring and honestly kind of useless but i want someone to love me romantically someone, who needs me to continue living but also i don't think I'll ever feel that love . Love makes people pathetic and I don't think i want to be that pathetic

Ok so back in like 2024/23 I was dating this guy, both of us had never done anything sexual + we were both minors, one day which was his birthday, he wanted to do something's with me (sexual) and so I wasn’t really into it but he kept on asking and touching and so I kinda gave in, he wanted a bj and so I “tried” to but I felt really sick and bad in the middle and after, so I stopped midway and was like “no okay I think I’m lesbian” (before getting with him I only dated girls and was actually a lesbian) so then he basically begged not to break up with him, so I didn’t. Back on the way home I started laughing then crying and when I got home I showered and scrubbed my whole body aggressively and cried again, I talked to him about it, he said he was sorry and that it wouldn’t happen again, but he was still really horny whenever we met up and still wanted to do things, but I was never happy about it or was into it. We broke like 2 months later and whenever I see him I get really icky and everything. I genuinely don’t know how to stop feeling this way, or like idk what I call that “accident”? Like I’m genuinely confused and I’ve been going back and forth about what happened these past 2 years.
