reblogging again because some people still don’t know these rules

This is perf. c:

11 …it depends how you look at it….
15 ….it depends too…

Most of this list is very flawed and ridiculous because it assumes that life is like a sitcom or a teen movie. It isn’t. I’m going out on a limb here and say that most of this list is just bullshit.

Now there are some parts that I agree with such as #3, #4, #6, #7, #9, and #18. If this list was to prevent men from being total womanizers or letting them know that when a woman says “no” she means “no,” then I can definitely get behind this. However, the way it seems to be written seems to be written in a manner that discourages criticism or forces men to treat their women like queens no matter what. Respecting women is one thing, but this list is just lipservice posing as “dating advice.”

In conclusion I find this list to be mostly unreliable, vague and ineffective and must be immediately re-written in a way that ACTUALLY combats and prevents actual abuse or violence towards women and and not just some “dating advice” crap. Because I don’t believe in social norms, because people are different in some ways. And what’s the point of following all of these steps if half of all the marriages if the divorce rates/break up rates are rather high in the US? (If any Europeans out there have divorce/break up statistics in their countries, feel free to show me, because I don’t know what the divorce rate is over there, same thing with any other nation in the world.)
