Sorry, but this doesn't make sense. You say there are 101 issues with authenticity, yet, you're ready to throw 99 of them to garbage, because 2 of them make you feel uncomfortable. Say what? This is a very weak argument. If you can't abide to one historical detail for obvious reasons (though I wouldn't be against a show in latin with subtitles), it doesn't mean you should throw historical accuracy altogether. You should fight for historical authenticity on all fronts. Also, the blame-shifting tactics is getting old now: the ones obsessed with gender/race are movie producers (who bent the knee to the woke cult). -
I don't follow American politics every day, so I don't get the reference, friend. Sorry if your comedic effect falls flat I thought DeSantis was good at exposing the hypocrisy of the ultra-wealthy people of Martha's vineyard. I dunno all the details, but I can't stand wealthy folks belittling regular people for their supposed lack of solidarity, while themselves can't stand the presence of migrants for one day (and called the army). But maybe I missed something (the left card is an immunity totem?)

Yeah, absolutely, her voice is a key part of her attractiveness.

Yep I've always had high standards for women (and the girls I dated always found that weird about me, even though it should be quite flattering for them, I guess...) I never liked watching men who immediately simp for women even when they are obviously toxic, average-looking or uninteresting girls.
-
Yeah, they were all fantastic actors. Lena Headey was great as Cersei. She seems way gentler in real life though. I remember her in 300 (great movie).

All of these aspects have underlying biological truths: male gametes can be produced in millions every day, while ovules are rare (produced roughly once a month). The fertility period for men is nearly all life, while women's fertility has a peak decreases over time. But there's another biological impact IMHO: in harsh environments where births are needed, societies manage to quickly lower the barriers and promote relationships, while opulent environments tend to intuitively infringe relationships (to lower birthrates). But, I dunno, that's just a theory
-
Sure, it's another aspect, but what's striking is that an average woman can convince most men to have a relationship with her, while an average man can have hard times (especially in "progressive environments" like big cities, while things are less competitive in the countryside). "Progressive environments" are very competitive for men.
-
To summarize (in a simplified way): men's raw impulses tend to create a socialist market for women, while women's raw impulses tend to create a very harsh capitalist market for men. This is what many dating sociologists say, though there are actually lots of feedback loops that mitigate these raw impulses (and can completely change the picture). What's funny is that the more we talk about "gender stereotypes", the more these stereotypes are reinforced wildly, while more conservative environments actually tended to mitigate these dating stereotypes. (BTW, this is non-judgemental, it's just trying to make sense of observable data and many social scientists in this field formulated these observations)

BZ's threads illustrate perfectly what we see every day in male/female dating market: - the female threads are hyper active (posts on the first page all date from today) - there is some sort of female hierarchy, but not very steep. The curve has a very small slope (there are 9 threads with 1000+ pages and about 150 with 100+. Then, there are lots and lots of threads with tens of pages) - the male actor threads are pretty inactive... (some threads' last updates date back from April) - ... except for one guy. The male hierarchy is extremely steep. One guy gets it all (Leo's thread has 1000+ pages. He's the only one. There are no other actors with 1000+ and none of them even has 100+. They silver and bronze medals are very low. It's one king and the plebs)

Very interesting. I think I could've guessed who read them or not (except for Tyrion, I would've thought he had read them, but his explanation makes sense and seems to agree with his personality)

I'm happy I haven't wasted one second on this show.

Would it be possible for those crazy anglo-saxon extremists to stop f*** around with French culture!? "Nonbinary Joan of Arc" => the craziness should stop now.
-
Then, they wonder why people around the world think the American culture is broken. American producers are OBSESSED with gender an race to the point where they make meaningless decisions. Hollywood is worthless.

Usually, working your pulling muscles (back), whatever the exercice (dumbbell rows, pullover, etc. or even pull-ups if you have a bar), will improve your posture. In addition, weak rotator cuff muscles are often times detrimental to the posture. Working them can be very beneficial. Like this for example (you only need very light weights, cause they're small muscles): https://builtwithscience.com/fitness-tips/rotator-cuff-exercises/

The rear delts are always recruited on these movements, but it's not the same part of the shoulder that you do with push-ups (front delt) or side raises (medial delt). The rear delts often neglected, but they help protect/balance the shoulder. If you feel your rear delt, it means it's strengthening. You can do reverse dumbbell flies (with lower weights) if you want to strengthen the rear delt more directly. If you want another dumbbell back exercice, you have the pullover, it does mostly the back (the lats), but also the chest (to a lesser extent).
