The concept of noblesse oblige really needs to be restored and expanded. Most of us have advantages we don’t understand. It’s why charity and compassion is so important.
That’s not genocide, that’s eugenics. Just as bad.

My brother and I used to spend hours playing together in an old 2-player dungeon game.

Maybe you just have a hard time identifying the women worth dating? Many people do.
Exactly. Coffee, ice cream, or something like that. Perfect first date.
I don’t tend to “test” the people I date.
But I don’t have an issue meeting either way, so long as it’s communicated. I mean… meeting outside the door is still meeting at the restaurant.
Spoken like someone who isn’t afraid of potential dates. Lol.

My oldest was born in a hospital, but it was such an awful experience, my second was born in a birthing center. So much better on so many levels.
