Yeah, so, opened myself up for a lot of mockery today, by complaining about harrassment driving away a large demographic of potential users.
Sorry, not sorry. 🤙
Even if you changed one perspective, it was worth it. Plus, change won’t happen overnight, but you have planted seeds 💜
It's always good to express what you think! Appreciate you putting yourself out there to share your perspective.
I don’t think it’s mockery. Only a difference in opinion expressed in a way that is often seen as mockery. People will be people no matter the platform.
Men literally responded by claiming women are just all stupid or that I am old and ugly.
YOU my dear are not that. Far from that. Don’t ever let some randos destroy who you are.
I disagree, I think you opened up a healthy debate which is good. 🫂
I think you just showed that you were correct
Yeah. LOL
Q.E.D.
Wait. You studied Euclid?
Of course.
Ah, you just started following me, that's why.
Welcome.
What a strange place Nostr is!
I only studied Euclid in college but if there were one book I could get everyone to read, it would be the Elements... So I was amused to read your response "of course" since absolutely no one studies Euclid 😂
It's how you learn proofs.
I'm doing a series analyzing "The Rhetoric", now.
These are talks you give....?
I used to teach classes to teenage homeschoolers, but now I just do a classical book club in Nostr. You'll see the entries show up in your feed.
Amazing.... That is a niche world I have been a part of ever since high school and college. I studied at one of the handful of Great Books colleges here in the US.
Our parish school has been moving to the classical liberal arts model but is closing this year for all sorts of reasons. The world of education is not an easy place to be a reformer.
I will keep an eye out for your entries. Illegitimi non carborundum
Are you following @Michael J yet? You'd probably like him.
Can always tell them to GFY 🫂
You were bloody brave 🫂💜 very much appreciated 🙏🏽🫂🫂
You got everyone chatting, and I followed a lot of people from the thread, so thanks.
You're doing great. Keep the conversations coming. This is how we improve and grow Nostr.
It's been interesting finding out how oblivious a lot of guys are to what some of the women are dealing with. I didn't realize that they didn't know this stuff is going on.
People tend to stick their head in the sand about the things that don't affect them
Most don't know, because they just don't have women in their lives to ask them.
i think there is a significant lack of empathy and emotional intelligence in society and just shallow thoughts. And it goes both ways. It might be a lack of prefrontal lobe development.
Specifically daughters. If you don't have daughters you don't understand.
So i don't really understand...
My own reaction to the women in life helped me realize how fucked up things are
