Basically in this particular case, it's using an image of an older man to make fun of a younger woman, making fun of the woman by comparing her to an older man with the only thing they have in common is long hair. Both are famous in their own right.  Your post with an older man and younger man is okay because both are male.I

 

I know that you don't hate women, but can you see how ingrained into our culture misogyny is that we sometimes don't even recognize it.

 

Definition of misogynistic from Merriam Webster

: feeling, showing, or characterized by hatred of women : of, relating to, or being a misogynistic song with misogynistic lyrics, misogynistic attitudes/behavior

 

 

[Jeebus, I'm going to explain a joke...]

 

It really isn't making fun of Jennifer Anniston. It is poking fun at how tough the year's been by  showing, through exaggeration, how even a celebrity widely recognized as one of the most beautiful women in modern culture can get worn down by modern events. 

 

There really isn't anything misogynistic about it, in my opinion.  Certainly none was intended.

 

 

As for the resemblance, there is, uncannily, more to the resemblance between the two than long hair.  Iggy could be her older brother.

Survey: More porn consumption creates greater erectile dysfunction in European men

 

Watching more pornographic videos worsens erectile dysfunction, according to the findings of a survey presented Thursday at the EAU virtual Congress.

 

Viewing pornography also is associated with greater dissatisfaction with "normal" sex, with only two-thirds of male respondents rating sex with a partner as more stimulating than watching adult videos, the researchers said.

 

"We found that there was a highly significant relationship between time spent watching porn and increasing difficulty with erectile function with a partner," study co-author Gunter de Win, a professor at the University of Antwerp in Belgium, said in a statement.

 

In all, roughly 23% of male respondents 35 years old and younger reported that they had some level of erectile dysfunction when having sex with a partner, he and his colleagues said.

 

Those who reported more porn viewing reported more problems becoming aroused when with their partners, according to the researchers.

 

Overall, 65% of male respondents reported feeling that sex with a partner was more exciting than watching porn, the researchers said.

 

One in five respondents, or 20%, also felt that they needed to watch more extreme pornography to get the same level of arousal they had from previously viewing adult videos, they said.

Posted awhile back, but sex is sooo much better with your brain off porn (6 years now, for me). Sex, conversation, everything.

Lockdown loneliness boosts sales of sex dolls with thousands shipped to Europe

 

One unexpected effect of the coronavirus pandemic spreading to Europe has been a surge in sex doll orders from China, an exporter has revealed.

 

A factory in Shenzhen, in South China’s Guangdong Province, is producing 4,000 of the “hyper realistic” sex dolls every month, with eight out of ten of them being exported to Europe.

 

Yiwu Yansheng E-Commerce Co Ltd sells its love dolls under the brand "Yannova" at prices ranging from 1,000 CNY (£112) to over 20,000 CNY (£2,250) for voice-enabled models.

 

Most orders are made through Alibaba’s e-commerce platform AliExpress, which reaches more than 200 countries around the world.

 

Yan Sixue, Yiwu Yansheng's CEO, said that exports to Spain, Italy and Germany have spiked during the pandemic.

 

When Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte put the country on full lockdown in March, orders from Italy increased by 500% compared to the same time last year, according to The Paper’s report.

 

But Chen Qing, manager of the firm’s Shenzhen manufacturing plant, said demand for the company’s products had been strongest in Germany during the pandemic, a phenomenon Chinese state media outlet Global Times puts down to loneliness and strict social distancing measures.

My household got to be part of the LA rent lottery. 😁 Two months of free rent, so just under $2000 total. That's great news with furlough coming up, as it essentially pays for her to not work this month. 

The funny part is that my wife wasn't even going to enroll because she thought we brought in too much on our 2019 taxes, but I convinced her to look again with literally a half hour to go before the deadline. Sometimes it pays to listen to me. 😏

Meanwhile, in Thailand...

 

Police give up fighting sex-mad monkeys which overran city eating themselves to death

 

Police using slingshots to try keep sex crazed monkeys which have overrun a city under control have been forced to admit they are powerless.

 

Life is so easy for the primates in the Thai city of Lopburi that they are eating themselves to death, according to wildlife experts.

Citizens in the tourist hotspot are afraid to leave their homes due to the vicious macaques, which have set up their headquarters in a disused cinema and developed a taste for junk food.

 

Last month Mirror Online reported that an estimated 6,000 monkeys were terrorising locals, attacking anyone brave enough to stand in their way.

Unfortunately some residents first thought the best way of calming the overzealous monkeys down was to give them fast food - but this has just made the situation worse.

Funny...I could've sworn you posted that a couple weeks ago (but without the pictures).

I also have about a dozen jokes. 😆

 

I think it's an update from a story I did post a couple of weeks ago, so you're memory's working fine.

Anyone needing a new contact lens prescription that doesn't want the hassle of going to the ophthalmologist or optometrist office during the pandemic, you might be able to get the prescription via an online eye exam.  I need a new prescription for mine, searched online eye exams and went to https://www.1800contacts.com/.

 

It's for renewing existing prescriptions, not a comprehensive exam.  Pretty fast results.  You need a webcam and mic, basically you sign up for an account.  Then start the exam.  Answer a few questions, then they have you look into the cam like a foot away and ask you to look left, up, right while taking pictures of your eyes.  Then with your contacts in, stand back 10 feet and cover each eye reading 4 letters on the screen, then uncovered reading four letters.

 

Then you enter your current/last prescription details (brand, diam., base cure, etc.) and send it in.  I started it last night at 10:15 and had a new prescription by 11:00 pm.  It's only valid in 31 states, NC is one of them.  Ordered them this morning.  It was free right now too, and I didn't have to order from them directly either, got in the live chat and asked for the actual prescription to be emailed to me and they did.  Pretty cool.

Got my first quarantine haircut today. Went from Teen Wolf to Will Wheaton in Stand By Me in about twenty minutes.

 

I totally relate! Washing my hair today, it's getting long on my neck. I think by September I'll need another.
