Mannen, vinden jullie een goedmaakcadeautje na een ruzie/meningsverschil leuk?

En ja, naast het standaardantwoord 'gepijpt worden' bedoel ik andere cadeautjes. Bloemen, een kaartje, sieraden. Gekocht of handgemaakt/handgeschreven cadeautjes. Vinden jullie dit leuk of niet echt?

Gelijk krijgen.

Hoi,

Vraagje mijn 'ex' vriend is echt heel irritant want hij heeft altijd kritiek op van alles en dan ook nog een de meest lompste en hardste manier ook nog.

Echt Ik vind het echt een l** maar ik heb laatst weer aan hem toegegeven dat hij gewoon wel vaak gelijk heeft.

En door de boosheid die ik voel naar hem word ik gestimuleerd om er was aan te doen, wat het dan ook is wat hij voor kritiek heeft gegeven. (Als ik het er zelf tenminste ook mee eens ben, hoe boos ik eerst ook ben over wat hij nou weer gezegd heeft)

Als jullie horen van je vriendin of je ex " ja, je hebt gelijk en ik doe er wat mee" .

Wat denken jullie dan ? Leuk, gaan we onze reet mee afvegen? of....???

En als hij zegt rustig aan dan doe ik ook rustig aan.....als hij met goede argumenten komt, dan ga ik om .

Zeker veel te saai hè? Een vrouw die je gelijk geeft???

Of zit ik nu weer boordenvol met vooroordelen door eigen ervaringen??

( Ik vrouw 55,hij man 50 )

Do we have erotic massage in Netherlands? How does it work?

Hi guys,

I've been living in the Netherlands for 4 years now, I never had a massage yet. Now I need to have one due to lot of stress.

From where I come from every massage spa offers a happy ending with additional tip, but how does it work here? Is it normal to ask for a handjob at the end of a massage? How much tip should I give for this? Is it awkward thing to ask or absolutely normal?

Please advise me. Thanks a lot

How come Dutch men are more beautiful and tall compared to everyone else? What can African nations learn from them?

Dutch men are among the tallest in the world (roughly ~183–185 cm average). That difference is real. The below are possible reasons:
1. Genetics
Dutch populations tend to have a higher frequency of height-associated genetic variants.
But genetics alone doesn’t explain the rapid increase over the last ~100–150 years.
2. Childhood nutrition (very important)
The Dutch diet has long been rich in:
dairy (milk, cheese, yogurt)
protein
Better childhood nutrition allows people to reach their genetic height potential.
3. Public health and low childhood disease burden
Clean water, strong healthcare, and low rates of childhood malnutrition mean fewer growth interruptions.
4. Social and environmental factors
Some research suggests assortative mating (taller people tending to pair with taller people over time) can reinforce height differences
Urban, wealthy societies tend to reduce growth-stunting conditions overall- but i am unsure how true this is.
5. Historical “selection effect”
In very broad terms, when a population has strong nutrition and health for many generations, average height can gradually shift upward.

Why Dutch men are “more attractive”.
This part is mostly perception, not biology- but still true.
1. Height influences perceived attractiveness
Across many cultures:
Taller men are often rated as more attractive or confident
So a taller population automatically gets a “boost” in perceived attractiveness
2. Media amplification
Dutch and Scandinavian men are overrepresented in:
fashion modeling
advertising
global social media aesthetics
That creates a “selection bias” where you mostly see the most conventionally attractive individuals.
3. Fashion and presentation culture
The Netherlands has a strong modern, minimalist fashion culture in urban areas (Amsterdam, Rotterdam), which reinforces a “clean aesthetic” image.
But- What can African people learn from the Dutch and incorporate into their culture to produce the same/similar results?

Height is mostly about early-life conditions, not ethnicity or culture
The biggest driver of average height differences globally is:
childhood nutrition
prenatal health (mother’s nutrition and health)
childhood disease burden
access to healthcare
That is not something that is easy to fix for poor African states. We also have not addressed Dutch lifestyle.
What practical steps do you think African people can take to meet the standards of the Dutch.

New BF [30M] is bad in bed, how can I [31F] handle it? help!

Hi guys!

So I [31-F] met this cute guy [30-M] at the wedding of my sister. We hit it off straight away, we had lovely dates, and I have to say he’s quite a good kisser. We have been dating for four months now.

However, I’ve come to find out he’s not good in bed. He tries to do oral and fingering but it’s not really good. There really isn’t that much passion. Were exclusive and I tried to tell him the following:

- you can just grab me and take me (he said yes, he will do that - but he didn’t).
- I tried to guide his hand down there but it was not really working. I believe this made him more insecure.

I’ve had a conversation with him in which I said I want him to have some more touching with me and that I didn’t have an orgasm yet, and that it’s frustrating. He only answered that it was because I was on my period a lot. He didn’t say anything like; oh I didn’t know this was a problem, how can we work on it?

Also I told him I would like to see him more in the weekends but he doesn’t listen to this either. Overall he seems pretty passive.

Does anybody have any experience in this and how did you solve it? Part from that he is kind and he wouldn’t hurt a fly. We have nice dates. Not sure how to tackle this.
