- Comment on In the U.S., are all voting booth areas required to have carbon monoxide detectors? 6 days ago:
If there’s carbon monoxide, then someone might fill in a bubble thinking it makes the candidate less likely to win, get the candidates mixed up, forget to fill in the bubble, etc.

Carbon monoxide in a voting place could affect which choices are picked by voters who use the booths.

Smells like lust. And an even sadder kind of desperation.
Did they plan on being open to kids?

I’m curious, do you think of sex more as “like ice cream but better” or “like hugging but better”?

Some of the listed things mean that Catholics might put more effort into finding someone, compared to secular dating. Also, people seem to see insanity in how Catholic dating connects to marriage, but I don’t know exactly how that’s perceived. I might not be familiar enough with other dating cultures to know what is relevant.

I defined the first in another comment.
Incel-style pessimistic desperation: persistently sad because no girlfriend; horny; wants an easy short path to having girlfriend; making the other person happier is probably not part of why they start to want romance

I didn’t limit to only what’s specific to Catholics. Also, I’ve heard that Mormons think it’s a big deal to still not be married at a certain age because it affect which level of Heaven you enter.
- Comment on Is Catholic dating culture often mistaken for incel-style pessimistic desperation? 2 weeks ago:
- marriage is awesome enough to warrant active effort in dating if one is called to marriage, but not at all costs
- standards can be good, even if it means staying single
- no shame or moral inferiority in being single, regardless of age
- marriage almost always should be with another catholic
- no premarital sex or cohabitation
- dating is for finding future spouse, but there’s not too much rush in determining whether or not someone is that future spouse
- relatively wide variety in how long a couple dates before deciding to marry
- normal to date in high school, but some people are against it, and some actively encourage it
