Oh if it weren't for Reddit I'd still be a Christian Extremist waiting for the rapture. It's got its pros and cons. For me the cons began to outnumber the benefits I was getting from it and I left.

"Equating harassment on the internet with middle eastern acid attacks is baffling and offensive."

I don't. I find it very relevant to my theory actually. Hate and resentment takes place in many forms, from subtle to extreme, and tying it all together isn't baffling to me at all.

"as someone who's actually had sex I can attest that there are actually other reasons. It's fun and makes you feel closer to the person you're doing it with"

So you're a nice guy then. Maybe I was just surrounded by men who are assholes. Every job I've had the guys just fuck around for the sake of adding another "bitch" to the list of women they've "conquered and dominated". From taco bell to universal studios I knew all the places the employees screwed in and with who and why. The ones who didn't get laid were looking for a quick and easy one night stand just to get it out of the way and feel like they too have something in common with the alpha males. I've worked with really immature young guys and very mature older men and they all seem to have the same mindset. And it sure isn't to feel closer to the person they love. I normally would give humanity the benefit of the doubt and say there's lots of men like you but sorry. I'm all out of hope this year, maybe next.
