And like, I knew you were being earnest! Tone is hard to get across on the Internet. But emotions react before the critical thinking can do it’s work =P
I just saw how far above 50% it was since that’s the mark you have to clear. I’ve always thought of elections and other votes that way. Not sure why. Never thought about it. Sure, using the more accurate 13.2% would have proven the point I was making even better, but I didn’t really think that far ahead. I just wanted to give the context that controversial issues trend more toward 50/50 so passing with a 56.6 vote is nothing to turn your nose at. But to answer your question, I subtracted 50 from 56.6.
Honestly, I got defensive and wouldn’t have written any of this if you hadn’t said “what kind of math are you doing” like it wasn’t t obvious what I did. But I guess it gave myself and others the opportunity to understand why we use the total percent and not how far above 50.
Maybe not overwhelming, but it didn’t just squeak by either. For a historically controversial topic such as this 6.6 percent is substantial.
I got chills
Empathy doesn’t have to mean letting them do whatever they want. It’s the only path to reforming them. I’ve worked with a young kid with no dad in the process of going down this pipeline. You have to challenge them on what they think they’ve learned about being a man, but if you don’t try to understand how they feel they will just shut you out. Ultimately you can’t make someone believe something. So you either give up and label them a lost cause, or you actually try to reach them and convince them person to person.
Exactly!
It annoyed me at first, but when I cross my arms and they extend it feels like a power move. Especially when I’m about to persuade with a + 13-16. It’s like, “Oh yea? And how bout now?” Signature look of superiority
“Did Kierra Lewis forget that it’s okay to take back consent at any point?” Pretty much sums it up.
I feel exposed if it’s swung all the way open though. I just leave it ajar for the kitty.
Sweet!
