@Typo-MAGAshiv I'm thinking of writing something up on this for WATGMA, what do you think?
I'm thinking it's an interesting allegory for women hitting the age wall but instead of that, she's disabled and still facing the same problems that such women have and it would make an interesting discussion there with this writeup.
@polishknight I had a longer explanation typed up, but my stupid phone lost it when I switched apps for a moment.
She doesn't fit rule 5 or rule 9, and the optics of allowing it would be shit.
@lurkerhasarisen mental note to look in the morning. Drunk and tired.
This is similar to the other post you put on Reddit by the woman whose life is being sidetracked by caring for elderly relatives (which I took down because it doesn’t meet the posting criteria). Neither of these women are blaming men for their problems.
I would be open to considering both of the stories as weekend content because both women display ignorance of how men operate as they seek commitment. Having said that, I’m not crazy about the commenters in the other post making wild-ass speculations. One guy in particular made a lengthy comment about what he surmised are her “real” motivations, along with a highly detailed prediction about her future, which he described with complete certainty after pulling it out of his ass.
The other mods can weigh in, but that’s my $0.02.
Read MoreNot sure how to flair this one, or if it crosses a line (similar to widows) but this is an interesting allegory to leftovers, or demanding women who lose their looks and then are left wondering what to do next. What do you think?
@woodsmoke i can't access the modmail on that other site anymore to pull this discussion back up, but one of the things Kevin wanted all the mods to keep in mind is that we usually want the "seeking commitment" requirement to be met via the Carol's own words
Right. Hence the proviso it be accompanied by an explanation for those whom it would benefit.
@throwaway_old_guy I wouldn't have the energy to find out.
