“1. Ad Hominem Ad hominem means ‘to the man’. It is an argument that attacks the person rather than the quality of their argument. I once fell foul of this with my elderly aunt while arguing about bitcoin. She said to me “I don’t like bitcoin because old people can’t understand it.” I replied “You just don’t like bitcoin because you don’t understand it.” Similarly, I notice a lot in politics that people won’t debate over Joe Biden’s policies, but rather, attack him for his age...

“Common phrases gaslighters may use: "I never said that." "I did that because I love you." "I don't know why you're making such a huge deal of this." "You're being overly sensitive."

“What Is the Difference Between Solo Polyamory and Polyamory? People who practice solo polyamory are not part of a committed partnership or multi-person relationship unit. That doesn’t mean they don’t have any intimate relationships. It just means they don't live with romantic partners, and they tend to refrain from engagement and marriage. Solo polyamorists’ relationships don’t follow the “relationship escalator” model. The escalator represents traditional relationship milestones and goals...

I decided to be a sex-positive parental figure who works together with sex-positive families. “Sex positive parenting is teaching that sexuality is a natural and healthy part of childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Children benefit so much from the space we can create for them to discover how they wish to express their gender and to learn what they are passionate about, free from rules about what boys, girls, or transgendered people “should” be like...
