  • IMO there are sufficient search engines to find products in online shops, to check availability, compare prices etc.

    I see the main selling point of Amazon in the huge assortment (you can get everything in one place without shipping fees), the user ratings (although the quality massively declined during the last years) and the fast delivery. I’m boycotting them for around one year now and everytime I need to order a strange combination of things I’m getting reminded how convenient it used to be. I don’t intend to order there again, but I definitely need much longer to buy stuff now.

    Building muscles is more effective than cardio to burn fat. The more you have, the more calories you burn passively just by having them. Kind of like compounding interest. Cardio is healthy and good, but will ‘only’ burn fat during and right after the workout.







  • I’m not OP, but many people associate feminism with strengthening women specifically. If you look up the definition it actually does focus gender equality, no matter what gender you have. So from my perspective the term isn’t really intuitive.

    Another thing I don’t like about the definition (at least the one on Wikipedia) is…

    Feminism holds the position that modern societies are patriarchal—they prioritize the male point of view—and that women are treated unjustly in these societies.

    While I sure get what they mean, I personally don’t like to classify one’s point of view as ‘male’. I agree that there are far more toxic men that seek more and more power. But i don’t dislike such people because they are men. I’d dislike their behavior just as much if they were women, non-binaries or any other gender. Classifying a character trait male IMHO is similar to calling a skirt or dress ‘women clothes’.

    So yes, to me personally, anti-sexism / anti-discrimination or even better pro-equality are more appealing.
