To be fair, I'm not sure whether Rojava has in the past even proven that Ostro is married, much less whether or not the marriage is a happy one. But different individuals within each sex have different sex drives. Some women even claim their husbands often deny THEM sex; and some men claim to be upset that their ex-girlfriends used them for sex; and though they have no proof, strangers on the Internet have no proof around Ostro's sex life either.


Folks, all this thing about third parties discussing a fellow Generalite's private life without himself taking part in the discussion sounds a bit creepy... Could we please drop it?

But it's a microcosm of people's credibility or lack thereof. If someone claims to know for a fact something about a forumer's sex life they have no basis to claim to know for a fact, their credibility is in doubt. If that "fact" turns out to be provably wrong, their credibility is obliterated to hell and they need to stop having opinions.

Yep. I mean, the word "Karen" wasn't pulled out of someone's arse. They're called "Karens" because "Karen" is a typical name for women in that demographic. You know who else is a Karen- Tucker Carlson, the nut job who told people to call the police or child protective services if they see a kid wearing a mask in public

In that case, it's rather unfair to everyone else named Karen to use their name as an insult, is it not?

It's unfair to guys named John that their name can mean both toilet and someone who solicits sex, but the Johns of the world don't complain.

Maybe they should.

It's hardly ever used to mean toilet anymore.

As for "someone who pays for sex;" who gets to say who counts or not? Even in this thread we've been talking about imbalanced sex drive. If someone meets their spouses needs; whether a woman in exchange for him being the breadwinner, or a man in exchange for her doing cooking or cleaning or whatever; isn't one or the other (if not both) effectively paying for sex? Maybe people who have a problem with paying for sex weren't exactly the sharpest knives in the drawer in the first place. That might be why they have a problem with it. And so, when it comes to what term they can come up with to refer to them, they don't exactly think it through.

I haven't been called a Karen, but I have seen the meme used for really ridiculous reasons.

I can’t stop laughing. I just can’t. Mainly because it reminded me that there’s apparently such a thing as beef jerky underwear.

Bro, I thought for a minute that they were selling meat packaged in underwear.

Lady Gaga wore a meat dress, so maybe we should make clothing out of meat.

Was it real beef? I thought I read somewhere it wasn’t. Anyway, meat clothing sounds unhygienic.

Still, this OP made me laugh. Good times.

Hey, if you find a meme of the lowest common denominator to be appealing either for entertainment or for your progressive activism, go for it. When someone loses their shit and gets recorded, they're a often called a "Karen." I've seen a professor get called one for getting pissed off at a class on video, or someone snapping because they're in a bad mood. It's just annoying to constantly see and hear it. It's an annoying bandwagon that has gotten old. Don't like my take on the meme? Tough shit. Sure, it originally applied to actual assholes, but now its a little much.

It shows a lot that criticism of an overused meme brings out so much hostility in a topic.
