As long as one of us isn't abble to afford one of this, no one is really free ; as we won't be free from the fear that situation could affect us or some of our relatives...

Previous answers are both great. I would just add to try it at a time both partner are in the mood for it, and without pressure yourselves. May be it doesn't make it for one or both of you ; or maybe you would in fact like it once you try it. I don't think stress and sex are good friends. And so I see communication, understanding, and common will are keys of good experiences. (Even, and especially, when the output of the experience is "this is not my thing")

It is too late to be scared. Enjoy an other breath while you still can.

The official economical theory says that their is no relation between the wage and the income ; since you would (obviously?) work twice longer per day if your wage was halfed (unless you are lazy).

It is a bit hard to find examples where workers really accepted to do so, at least up to that point... because those who work hard are lazy and don't deserve to become rich, unlike the kids of shareholders (or else the system would be unfair, since they receive more than workers...)

Giving money to poors, they would spend it and increase economic activity. That would create more money and therefore pay back that was given to the poors. But they would not be that poor anymore, and teenagers would cost far too expensive for the bilionaires' pleasure (and most would even just refuse). As long as the choice is let up to the richests, the poors won't be founded but by fear...

Some unspecified promises of confort later, or freedom now and forever? Of course I do not go anywhere but remain at that holly Gnu Emacs !

It is far better if she does it at home! It is by far the most safe, since her bf would feel forced to respect her boundaries (or else she could easily scream for help).

I don't think sexual desires are "for a reason". Usually, when we want something, or some position, it is not after calmly comparing the pros and cons with other possibilities ; but a less or more burning desire of the thing for itself.

Also, some people have kinks you would prefer never try, no matter how good they may feel for those who like them. Based on that, you may accept that some people may love to receive it analy, while some others prefer never try.

You may already keep your balls at a good temperature (to work well, they need to be cooler than your body temperature, yet not too cold)... but so, if you are used to wear tight or heating underwares, you may wish to consider options that let your parts find the temperature they need...

I think javscrpit caste the strings "0" and "false" to true, yes...

Simple javscript casting, if the string contains at least one char, it means yes ; else it means no.

It seems "woke" come from groups of activists uniting in the belives that as long as their will be some kind of discriminations they will all be in a threat.

Therefore, all discriminated (including those who were, and those who could become) should unit and oppose, both to that discrimination and to the principle of discrimination.

Just as you may or not be actualy victim of some type of racism, but if you have some origines that could become discriminated some day. And the woke view is that you should refuse and oppose all kind of discrimination based on race or origines, because as long as one is seen as acceptable, yours could become (remain, or become back) at threat.

This as made a big union of groups opposed to conservative views. So feminist would also fight against racism, etc.

So by extension and out of fear, "woke" is the union of all type of those who do not fully follow the actual system ; at least for those who fully follow it.
