Let me guess… they’re a “pro-life” state?

Tell your doctor. You might be referred to a psychologist or psychiatrist to help diagnose you.
otp@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Japan schools move to protect cheerleaders from upskirting at sporting eventsEnglish2·1 year agoI definitely agree. I think beauty pageants are pretty disgusting, but child beauty pageants cross several terrible lines for me.
But it’s a cultural thing. I’m not an expert, so I don’t want to necessarily shame it unless I know that it’s inherently harmful to children (and can’t be modified to be no more harmful than forcing a kid to join a club they hate).

She drew attention to her being the/an author of the paper rather than just being a naming coincidence (or family relation, etc).
Adding the et al was likely for that effect, rather than an attempt to take credit for other authors’ work, imo

Where do you live where all that is free?
otp@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do people hate TV shows like The Biggest Loser and My 600-lb Life?12·1 year agoI’m not even overweight let alone obese, but I can’t stand those shows. They feel unethical, like a modern day “freak show” that they used to have in circuses way back when.
otp@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Japan schools move to protect cheerleaders from upskirting at sporting eventsEnglish32·1 year agoI was generally referring to children, not just minors. There are creeps who love the kinds of beauty pageants that Honey Boo Boo was in as a child.
But yes, you’re absolutely right. We should expect that there are going to be some people who are attracted to post-pubescent minors, and there are going to be some creeps among those people who will make everything worse for everyone.

otp@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Japan schools move to protect cheerleaders from upskirting at sporting eventsEnglish119·1 year agoIt’s sexualized, but not sexual. Like beauty pageants.
Usually when kids do a sexualized thing, it’s “supposed” to be cute and not sexual. “Haha, kids doing the adult things! Adorable.” Or if it takes skill, “wow, so great for a kid. She’ll be ready when she tries out as an adult”.
But then the creeps come along and sexualize the kids doing a “cute” thing.
And it happens every time. By now, it should be expected; surprising to no one.
It doesn’t mean we have to stop those things, unless we decide that we don’t want adult cheerleaders or adult beauty pageants. I’m okay with that personally, but I get that it’s an important cultural thing for a lot of people.
If we want these things for adults, then we need to let children do them, because cheerleading (in particular) is a sport, and the best adults are often the ones who practiced as children. Same as with sports.
I don’t know how we keep those cultural activities and also stop the sexualization. Banning certain outfits or articles of clothing to certain age groups or during certain activities feels wrong, but not quite as wrong as condoning pedophilia…which is what a lot of children’s beauty pageants and cheerleading clearly ends up being, even if unintentionally.
Heh, maybe your house smells good relative to the houses that leave turds
Then you’re doubling your flushes for your poops. I’m sure there’s some formula for this that could be worked out, lol
Reason number 3 is that something dropped in the toilet is less unpleasant to retrieve from a flushed toilet. Forgot that one earlier.
As well, it might be creating a smell that you’ve gone nose-blind to. Like a person’s own BO. Others can smell it long before the “owner” can.
Flushing after every use also creates a habit so that one never forgets to flush after using someone else’s toilet or a public one.
Dropping poop sometimes creates splashes
Why would I?
To keep your toilet cleaner and your bathroom smelling fresher. And to reduce splashback of urine when sitting.
