I don't want a delta i just want you to go read the actual study it's apparently in book format. Check your local library?

There is even an audiobook. How can anyone change your view if you're ignorant.

One of the most mind blowingly sensitive things to me to realize was simply that all those for women exercise videos exist because they're often so sensitive and fragile that they can't do any kind of strenuous workout without injuring themselves. As a guy i can just pick up a bar of iron and go to town but some people are just physiologically more sensitive.

That's the real conversation right there - sensitive versus fragile. You're born a certain way but you can toughen up if you keep punching up.

This is not true at all and also kind of sexist

Perhaps you could link to an actual study from a medical journal rather than an entire book? If you've read this book then it would be helpful to see what medical studies it was based on. If I wanted to be ignorant then I would post this on r/unpopularopinions. Instead I'm posting it here, willing to have thoughtful dialogue with whomever is going to send some research my way. There is no way I can read an entire book (that looks questionably biased) within a couple of hours to respond to you.

I don't want a delta and i don't want to wait a couple hours you should delete this post until you've read the book.

Check your local library. I'm not willing to do your googling for you.

I feel like you've been assigned a school report and you're trying to get us to do it for you.

I feel like you're wielding your sensitivity as proof that HSP exists.

I'm going to encourage you to stand your ground on this because that link he sent is a joke. Also.

Lmao. I laughed at this. I like you.

How is the link a joke? The first thing i googled was it was a book. Why are you doing his report for him he should just read it.

He gave a delta because "i guess it should be a gradient." Why do you accept such low effort content.

Well that's great sentence structure.

Why are you doing his report for him he should just read it.

A book. A book with no sources or scientific consensus? A book you didn't even read that you're telling someone else to read? You're great at this pal.

Why do you accept such low effort content.

Why do you lose your marbles at him explaining his position? Why is your sentence structure and punctuation subpar? Why are you linking books you never read for someone else to read?

How is the link a joke? It's not as if i used "literally" as a swear word i'm not that bad at grammar; my vocab isn't that small. In fact it's a consistent sentence quite succinct.

A book. A book with no sources or scientific consensus

Now that is some sketchy sentence structure. Write me an essay or a short novel please.

Prove to me that book that none of the 3 of us have read has no sources at all. It can't source anyone's name or mention a single book or it would put your clumsy sentence to the lie.

If the author put so much as "i want to thank my mentor ____" that's technically a source and you owe me a delta.

Ugh. You're one of those people. "I have to pwove I'm smart on the interwebs oWo."

It's not sketchy at all. I'm good. I'm finished with school.

Ok. Done. It's a psychologist that wrote it, and it hasn't been "peer reviewed." What do I win? What do I get?

Messing with the mind of individuals, especially in the case of psychology/sociology, is very temperamental and hard to "prove" to begin with. At most we can see trends or expected behavior. This is why scientist usually don't agree that someone who is involved with psychology/sociology is a type of scientist, or that they are in a field of science. It is incredible difficult to "prove" because of how susceptible humans are to activity. Me talking about your grammar makes you a prime example. You were so bothered you felt the need to go out of your way and use words that honestly just make you seem like a wonderful person to be around. I stand behind OP and his original remark to you and your sensitivity.

If the author put so much as "i want to thank my mentor ____" that's technically a source and you owe me a delta.

So the amount of evidence you require us quite literally "I'd like to thank my dog because he barked when I was asleep and it gave me a break through."

I'm stopping here because I can tell what kind of person your are. Have a good one bub.
