I’m 39. These days I explicitly work out to be in good shape for sex. I want to look good when I pop the top, and attracting partners is a core goal of mine.
I’ve never in my life been hurting for confidence, and was confident when I was 40 lbs heavier - I just looked worse with my shirt off.
If you’re chasing low-commitment sex, at some point your physical attractiveness does indeed matter.
What if your sister lives in a different country, and you haven’t seen her in ages, and she comes to visit you, and then you find out she packed her really sexy lingerie?
Then you should remember these days more accurately.
People make social media posts instead of geocities pages these days. Content creators are more like the people who used to sell content online than they are the average chucklehead who made a geoshitty page.
People you see with lots of Twitter followers are exactly akin to people who ran pages on free hosting websites. When they link their merch, it’s exactly like how blogs and shit would sell merch.
Youre looking at this with glasses so rosy they’re completely blinding.
When I was 18 I was pretty dumb, yeah. I once totally destroyed a hard drive by corrupting a file trying to make my PC background the “Anal Destruction” website logo
There were absolutely not more websites based on sharing in the early 2000s lol
You are literally on one of the very many websites dedicated to it, today, while bemoaning it’s absence
Some of the sharing sites from the 2000s monetized themselves and that upsets you. I have no issue with that. There are many alternatives because what he said is false. Go use one of them.
I don’t care if you agree. I care what’s correct. The Internet is many times larger than I was 20+ years ago, and all the same free networks exist. The really popular ones got big and monetized.
Mine is that the ratio of websites that freely shared info vs those that did so with an underlying goal of making revenue by advertising was very large vs very small.
There is a 0% chance you were an adult in the early 2000s lol
Imagine having ads in things but instead of just being there, they opened in new windows, were loud as fuck, and opened by the hundreds. That’s what the Internet was like
This is very different from my personal lives experience, and those of most people I know, but again my entire point here is that I don’t really know the current experience of young people.
