Hamas is a terrorist group. Not all Palestinians are Hamas. Israel is targeting Hamas. They have done their best to minimize Palestinian civilian causalities. It’s not genocide. If they were going for genocide, this would have been over with a long time ago.
The problem is, we as the general public, have gut reactions to things we don’t understand and aren’t directly involved in. This is made worse with misinformation and poor Internet literacy.
Another problem is that many Americans’ view points are sympathetic to terrorists. But, as I’ve heard somewhere “one person’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter.” These people believe Hamas aren’t terrorists and are wrongly being fired upon, therefore Israel is bad.
Another group, Trump supporters and the like, will twist anything Biden does negatively because it doesn’t align with their narrative.
Dependency and self-sufficiency are not opposites but extremes in both directions. It’s about finding the middle and and keeping it balanced as variables change.
I typically don’t care about things like hairstyle, makeup or clothes. But my wife has started giving herself a buzz cut and I simply hate it. I told her and she grew it out for a while, but she said longer hair was making her depressed and it needed to be a buzz cut. She said it just looks like her when she sees it. Part of...
I’m a white straight cis-woman who hates my hair and would buzz cut if it were more socially acceptable. It’s not a gender thing; it’s a tactile-sensory thing. I dislike it on my neck and face and hate the cost and experience of monthly maintenance to keep a cute pixie cut. A good hairstyle (by good I mean one you feel good in) definitely matters. I’m doing my hair longer now to get it in a pony tail. Don’t love it at all, but while it’s was growing out I felt frumpy and depressed. I would feel more confident if I could buzz mine without this stigma. If I were more courageous I would but the last time I had it very low people were judgy and to me it’s wasn’t worth the reactions.
But I don’t think your post is actually about the hair cut. There’s a lot of feelings you both your ends on what it means and what you think it means but may not. A healthy relationship IMO needs to talk about these openly. Even if you find you’re growing in different directions, if you love her, try to support her being authentic to herself. You may find your relationship can be stronger for it.
