well, alright, I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt – I get that tone is hard to convey properly over the internet. Have a good day!

You just brought huge value to the thread and I’ve learned a lot about the study that I never would have gotten from the caption alone and I’m grateful to your insight about it. It’s something that I otherwise wouldn’t have pursued deeper due to limited interest, so why do you have to be so nasty about it?

isnt it just thay you’re more likely to notice someone dressed up, and the people around them whilst staring at your phone, instead of never looking up bevause the pregnany woman has normal trousers

that’s super interesting, thanks for the extra context
- Comment on Yup, another Ottoman Empire classic 1 month ago:
Is it true that many different cultures and religions were permitted under the Ottomans, but the British divide-and-rule started to empower these groups too much, causing the Ottomans to crack down hard on them?
i.e. Was it Britain’s fault?
