How do I love like a woman

I was talking with one of my hgs yesterday about how men over sexualize women all the time for no reason. As a bisexual man i often have these talks and we giggle at how silly it all is that men act the way they do, but last night reminded me that I am still different from most of my peers.

My friend mentioned how she saw a tiktok of someone throwing ass, and how if a woman did that to her she would be so grateful and man would probably just be horny. I admitted that I would be one of those men for sure and we just kind of moved past it.

I like to think I adore women; I hold you all in high regard, and I actively go out of my way to listen to a woman's input challenge my own biases, but this has brought something to my attention that I can't ignore. Whenever I see a talented woman, or hear her make a great point about something I'm thinking, "Wow this person is so beautiful" and I didn't think too much into it because I wasn't undressing this person in my head even though I thought they were attractive so I had to be fine. Now I'm realizing that it's hard for me to admire a woman without thinking about how attractive she is, and I will never be able to just be in awe of a woman doing something sexual the way my friend will because of the foundation my attraction is built on.

Bookbag is gone

I stepped on an explosion trap and died immediately, but my ankh brought me back, and when I tried to find my bag I couldn't see it anywhere, I even checked on a different floor. Is the texture different here or is it just gone?

First 5 challenge run

I reflexively drank a healing potion, survived the poison and then a fly landed on me

Things I've learned from 4 challenge runs

  1. Probably the most important piece of information for every run: If you have a ranged weapon you don't need to take damage. Don't be afraid to take a few steps back, throw something at the door and *then* start shooting

  2. Ring of haste is actually one of the best rings in the game. A few months ago when I started this I've heard people say this but I thought it was because it made the DM 300 fight easier. It's actually just a great tool for kiting and repositioning

  3. If you can reposition and you're losing a fight do it. If you think "I should heal after this" that means you should heal right now.

  4. Mediocre scrolls often make great spells. Phase shift saved me a lot during this run, and it got me far in all the others
