It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

MODERATORS
This can't be real. The bit about "everyone acting like it's totally normal" for something that's clearly not, and just the absurdity of the situation makes me believe it's fake. People can't be that shitty, can they? But in the 1% chance it's true, wtf
"everyone" means "everyone immediately known to me whom i've asked," and there are some fucked up places out there
Like I've known some shitty men but that just doesn't seem like a realistically shitty thing
Have you known L&D nurses?
When my wife gave birth, the delivery room had a sign saying any sexual comments, said jokingly or not, would result in you being immediately kicked out. I couldn't believe they needed to put up a fucking sign for that at the time so that makes this post a bit less shocking to me.
When one of our kids was delivered the midwife told us of another couple where the man had... stimulated... his partner during labour. The way she told it was that some level of physical intimacy was beneficial to the process but that this particular couple had stepped way over the line of being weird and uncomfortable to the hospital staff.
Damn that’s a thing I just read
Couple of years ago I had to listen to a distant relative make the "husband stitch" joke while I was sitting at the other end of the table at a big family event. Legitimately made me angry how much the
found it funny.
Assuming the nurses/midwives are trained professionals, I'm going to guess that
A. They're too focused on their job to pay attention to what some observer is doing on the other side of the room
B. They've probably witnessed worse behavior from women's husbands during childbirth
Idk, I could see this being legit. In my life experience I've found that shitty people tend to find each other, kind of creates a localized normality.
