Proof that Lemmie had an absurd smear campaign. Incel theory debunked. My problem is religion.

Post by _DoubtingThomas »

The topic is mostly a criticism of Mormonism. Religion really messes up your mind.

I finally understand myself. It was all just my Mormon background. It was all just my Mormonism! I was reading an article (by accident) to contribute to the Pologamy thread in the Terrestrial section and I found
women older than 20 and single are perceived as left overs, by 25, old, by 30 spinsters… As a result, the women become more and more accomplished and therefore more and more intimidating and ultimately not the sweet, young thing the 20-year-old had in mind as the “perfect” LDS girl. Many of the other responses echoed the same ideas. The article on ldsmag.com, “Survey about LDS singles reveals surprising results,” has a full list of the responses.

When I said, "18-22 are generally more attractive" Lemmie made a big deal and called me a creep, a pig, and a sexist. She insisted with no evidence that I was reading incel propaganda.

The Chastity Project (a non-LDS channel) has a video called "My partner's sexual past haunts me... What can I do?" confirms my theory that religion really messes up your mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdJIOZuJ72Y

And I blame religion for the overreaction on STI. "Tyrone, a 20-year-old man, put it this way to Twenge for her book, iGen: His generation is having less sex “because of fear of pregnancy and disease.”"

What kind of response do you think posts like this should get, DT? What kind of response are you looking for?

I honestly don't know. Please forgive me. Some of the things I said were wrong and I am sorry. I am just a sad troll.

However, this topic is mostly a criticism of Mormonism.

Lemmie doesn't have a smear campaign. She's reacting to your posts like a normal person might reasonably react. Don't blame her. Check yourself.

EAllusion said that Lemmie misreads things. I never said anything perverted. A creep is someone like Joe Biden.

EA has a history with Lemmie which might color his analysis.

Dude... here's a project for you: try looking up the term "self awareness." Internalize it, then report.

I never said anything perverted. Lemmie accused me (with no evidence) of reading incel propaganda. She once accused me of being 35 years old, she retracted.

I suspect if you were to go back and read all of your previous posts as though they were written by someone else, one of two things would happen:

- You'd realize what everyone else sees when they read your typical posts
- You'd empathize with the character you've created here, and be hopelessly screwed

Either way, I don't think Lemmie's suspicions are as far fetched as you'd have us believe. The only thing you can do is start posting in a way that instills some doubt, so we could grant you that benefit.

DT, religion isn't your only problem, sorry. I wish at times I could blame mine on religion also, but it's just not true. It's one factor of many. Also, you aren't a troll, because you are obviously sincere. Whatever you don't like about Lemmie, consider she is one of two or three women at best actively posting on this forum and take that into consideration. As I think I may have told you before, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter if you like 20-year-olds, or you feel you deserve 20-year-olds, or you think science has proven you can only be happy with a 20-year-old, it's if you can GET a 20-year-old. Can you? If you can, what does it matter what any of us think? If you can't, well, any kind of feedback from women about how you come across could be useful to righting that situation. If a girl rejects you, are you really going to stand there and defend yourself intellectually about how she's wrong? Dating is the one world where "perception = reality" is rock-bottom truth.

Okay, my age doesn't really matter (Lemmie retracted the 35 year old claim) and I can prove that I do not read incel propaganda. Washington Post, NYT, and others did an article on incels and I am way way different.

Benefit of what? I never said anything perverted. Please quote me.

And studies prove that people are bad observers.
