No dude, this time it was polonium tea.

I'm no expert on this topic but I do recall having seen brain scans showing different patterns of neural activation while speaking for language learned in infancy vs adulthood. That suggests that there is more than one route to language learning and one of them closes off after a certain age

Ok fine, he's a special pimp.

Ugh, in no way am I trying to suggest this is a good man doing acceptable things. I'm trying to suggest he is a bad man doing exploitive things AND that there are many like him that perhaps are less skillful with social media.

There are so many things that one might want in a partner which are not changeable, that something like this, where it can be taught, shouldn't be high on the list of reasons to reject. If you discuss the issue with someone you're dating and they 💩💩 it, then you might want to reject, but not because of the knowledge they lack but rather because of their insensitivity to your anxiety.

That's correct. Please accept my apology if it seemed I was suggesting otherwise.

He's not special. Run of the mill pimp.

There's no one size fits all.
