As it turns out, weāre having a male sociability crisis, because the more they talk to each other they more they egg each other on with MGTOW and Tate-isms
Make Men Lonelier 2025 Honestly some of the dudes I know who are the most normal about womenāthey arenāt exactly lonely per se, but they do have a pointed issue of not getting on as well with other men, because misogyny is ingrained into how they bond with each other, and refusing to participate in that alienates you.
This. The men who complain about being āfriend-zonedā by women in their acquaintance have been socialized by men to think that way, whereas men who have real friendships with women have fewer friendships with such men.

Yeah, itās not nice to realize a guy was only being friendly for a chance to sleep with you, and when they realize youāre not interested in ādatingā them, they disappear. The first time happened when I was in college. I kept telling him I was only looking to be friends; his reply was always, āfriends date, tooā and he kept on pressuring me. When he thought I was dating somebody else, he vanished. (Which hurt, but even as young and inexperienced as I was then, Iād figured out his game and I was disgusted by it.)

I find the joke jejune but at 5ā11" heās not really āshortā either. So I guess itās more of a ālol tall girlā joke for the gender anxious?

I question the stat. Dump isnāt the first man to lie about his height.
My brother played with Olympic water polo player in college and he often visited our family. He literally added an 1Ā½" to his āofficialā height. He was maybe an inch taller than me (probably 5ā8Ā¾") but he listed his height as 5ā10Ā½".

To be fair, why is she in high heels on specially-groomed dirt? Will she pay to repair the damage?

Try being a Canadian of a certain generation; I was born when imperial measurements (inches, feet, etc) were taught in school, and we switched to metric when I was in high school. I sorta think in both.

Did Quebec use the French units or the British ones?

Well, we all use metric now. I donāt know what units they used before we switched, but probably feet and inches, etc. which were standard for Canada.

The French pied and pouce were larger than the English foot and inch, though ā most famously the legend of Napoleon being short is ascribed to him measuring less in them. According to wikipedia, Quebec used a version that was very close but a tiny bit off.
I think a lot of people fail to appreciate how horribly non-standardized traditional units were, just because thereās only one version thatās still common now.

Me too, but maybe a little before you. I think in a weird mixture of both. Iām more comfortable with kilometres than miles. Celsius degrees for outside temperature, Fahrenheit for cooking. I know my height in feet and inches but have to convert mentally for centimetres. Same with kilograms and pounds. I do most woodworking projects in inches, even though most of my tape measures are marked in both.
We recently bought a Cuisinart kettle. The water volume window is graduated in litres, but the temperature readout is in Fahrenheit with no option to change to Celsius.
Early on, they used the French system, probably derived from the length of Louis XIIIās nose or something. When Voltaire sneeringly referred to Canada as āquelques arpents de neigeā, he was using the French system. In Quebec, 1 arpent, also known as a French acre, was 180 French feet Ć 180 French feet = 32,400 French square feet = about 3419 square metres = about 0.845 English acres. (Of course it was different in France itself.)
Just remember 1 Parsec = 19.2 trillion miles.

Outside temps in celcius, inside temps in fahrenheit. Height in feet and inches, and I cannot wrap my mind around kilograms. Iām a bit better with millimetres, etc.
