I moved to a developing country to escape the hostile, isolating culture of the US. Ask me how!

I think if you could look into people's hearts, a lot of people want to kill a lot of people.

It didn't change my position on abortion, but it did coincide with a shift in my attitude towards American culture generally. I now see both sides as explicitly anti-sex, anti-life and anti-humanity. For example, a conservative might say that "unrestricted abortion allows for consequence-free sex." The implication of this statement is that sex is a vice and babies are a consequence. This anti-human view is pervasive on both sides and throughout American society. I thank God every day that I don't live in that country anymore.

How much is losing your virginity worth to you? A plane ticket?

Funny that your username is aiislove when you sound very un-transhumanist.
I don't understand this "life has to be hard to be meaningful" attitude. You can always turn the difficulty dial to whatever you want. Personally I don't want AI-aided social skills. I just want Westerners to stop treating me like shit for no reason. I would be interested in AI-aided social skills if I believed that it was the only way I could get love and friendship, but it is not (thank you rest-of-world!) so I don't need it.

I think my fundamental problem is that I have a pathological fear of being accused of sexual harassment, or of being sexual in general. Approaching women as a form of exposure therapy has not helped, because I'm still waiting in fear of "The Day". Therefore, I wonder if it's possible to preemptively me-too myself? Maybe I can announce (with my real name) "I'm a horrible horrible person who has a sex drive, please stay away from me," in an absurd enough way to get noticed, and then my name will forever be associated with that. My hope is that from that point on, I can live in peace, no longer afraid of me-too nonsense.

Here's hoping. The more I think about AI matchmaking, the more optimistic I am. By using matchmaking, I can eliminate anyone with what I see as insane views, such as the idea that people should be denied sex until they "earn it" by having the right socially approved personality. And if in this future, people cannot ruin my life by publicly proving that I'm a heterosexual male with a normal sex drive, then I should be much happier.
I never heard any of these girls express any interest in moving to America (and even if I had the perfect loving wife, I wouldn't want to live in the US again.)
I don't think the local dude are treated poorly here. My theory is that poor men tend to immigrate to other countries for work, creating a male gender bias in rich countries, and leaving a female gender bias back home. This combined with some of the psychological effects of wealth (such as more feminism) causes the wildly distorted dating market in rich countries.
Something that constantly shocks me is just how many young women there are here. It seems like every business I patronize has 75%+ female workers. Where are this country's young men? Sure there are male dominated professions like taxi driver, and maybe there are lots of men in industry or farming but I don't see them. I'm not sure.

I too am concerned about Yud-style misaligned AI, but I don't think it's more than 10% likely. Either way, if it's our fate, it's our fate. I'd rather be killed by emotionless AI than be psychologically tortured by feminists forever.

Really, in 2871 transwomen still can't pass? Tragic. RIP twenty-nineth century trans^2 people.

I'd rather express my sadism through BDSM, personally. But will the busybodies allow us to have BDSM or even insult eachother?
I have done (100% consentual and by-the-rules) CNC play. If a girl fantasizes about rape, there is presumably some BDSM-type scenario that she would consent to, or would consent to in some alternate universe where there weren't e.g. social taboos, dangers to her health, etc.
This is completely unrelated to the question of how pushy a man should be when flirting. Making a woman briefly uncomfortable is not rape, and it's not immoral in my view. (I'm not endorsing the view that women secretly wanting rape => unlimited right to sexually harass them.)

As someone who has been raped, twice, and sexually harassed by men and women many times, I personally would rather live in a world where I get raped or harassed sometimes than a world where, like in America, I am not able to have a social life because everyone just sees me a dangerous creep.

If women don't want a doormat, why does western society work so hard at bullying us into being doormats?

Well, if it's an aligned AI, then the nanoprobes which yes, will beat us to the stars, will simply prepare the way for us, including in some regions not-preparing (leaving untouched). I'll be excited when humans do arrive.
If it's an unaligned AI, welp.

My shower has a tankless water heater. I have a problem where if I turn it too low (cool), the water heater trips (some kind of self protection circuit) and the water becomes cold. I have to reset the water to max hot, wait for the heater to reset, and then try to find the comfy temp again. It's almost impossible to find a temperature that isn't too hot. What should I do?
EDIT: apartment management is no help haha

My experience in a country not unlike China (I assume) is that the women here are much more feminine, in all the ways you can suggest other than that they are not particularly demure (or chaste!) The men are not particularly masculine though (not trying to put them down), but I hear they do pretty well.

I'm sorry, the referrals to a gender clinic go DOWN at 18? That's very surprising to me. What about all the closested trans people with conservative parents that are finally able to make their own choices when they turn 18? Shouldn't it go up?

Where are all these college educated lonely women? I've been in the upper-middle urban class my whole life and I've never been in a space where there was an abundance of lonely women (Edit: until I moved to a developing country). I think this is a myth.

I have similar opinions due to personal experience. I don't know if sliders is correct about why western women behave this way, but they do.
My totally original dating advice is this: move out of hellhole countries where everyone hates you.
In the sixth story, nuclear power is dehumanized.
