But im talking about baby talk which often even translates to young children in a slightly different way, its always very condescending.

An example of it when used on toddlers and young teens is when they do something worthy of praise and the adults go "yayyyyy and clap" but do it in a tone that is unique to addressing children and very different to, say applause at a sports arena. That is, it always has a condescending tone to it.

nostr:npub1ukcz3c3ek9ugnmrj37cjm2q9gsaqss5j9dqwpqmx0tgkzudsseqqcp40jn I kinda get seeing a game as a book, in which case the game mechanics arent as critical. The problem is I find, as books, almost all games are really lacking compared to real books. Moreover I find them just too long-winded and slow when evaluating it as a book.

Its the same reason i prefer written tutorials over youtube videos. I can get the same information much faster and can skip the boring parts.

nostr:npub1rqs5lnxl7ah9zuecxh797w0juaesxs2y7xu5g7t0lhaay2mc65zsxqkfpm I think you are perfectly fine if you dont use baby talk but still engage in the body language portion.

You can also use incremental steps increasing the complexity of the language without using the condescending tone and made-up words of baby talk.

nostr:npub1ukcz3c3ek9ugnmrj37cjm2q9gsaqss5j9dqwpqmx0tgkzudsseqqcp40jn Man I wish I could get pleasure from games like you do :)

nostr:npub162ytz6y0t7fwwdh8fmj02l82d749t2854puhnuz4gcye7dt4jy8qj540e7 its a combination of features... It has a very condescending tone to it for starters. It usually uses cute words that arent actually words, sometimes even just mumbling "Abah booba you wittle boopie doop" stuff like that.

nostr:npub1vmyyv8gvehdxxmk86rcljmz5ymmnyfn3up5uadds4tw9yslanw7q6pym2f there is also just the issue of baby talk being condescending, but yea it also doesnt teach good language skills

Hot take: using baby talk when talking to children is a form of child abuse.

nostr:npub1hw99p7fh8fevafx7tpqcn4y3nnfgj2kcu2syqtv64f7yxwny0quqjfxfs3 I dunno I do a ton of C and other non-OO languages and its usually a nightmare for complex systems... Works fine for simple and straight forward stuff though. But I usually work on the more complex stuff where it just wont cut it.

To be fair his popularity is kinda hard to explain.. Id like to think its just the incompetence of Biden, which I can get behind... but part of me thinks there are idiots out there who legitimately support Trump on his own merit... that is scary.

I feel like if you spend 14 days on a ships rudder in order to flee to another country you should just automatically get citizenship.

nostr:npub1hj9ykwt2e8vzygrd84xxclant2eev6fd35a5386hv90rutr7x2gsnmfr6v Yea being "subtle" or shy and expecting some mind reading I think is a flaw of both sexes, at least in america. Honestly, no offense to you as I dont know you and dont mean to include you, but dating in the USA is generally very childish compared to other countries I've lived and dated in.

nostr:npub1hj9ykwt2e8vzygrd84xxclant2eev6fd35a5386hv90rutr7x2gsnmfr6v Yea agreed, and i commented about that earlier. Context is everything. Im not sure id go so far as to say courting is needed. Ideally in public you start a conversation and read the persons comfort with you before you jump in with any sort of compliment that is too personal.

I think I agree on the point that women want boundaries and I think many men dont understand it and care a lot less about their own bundaries and project that on others. Because men are so often encouraged to be the initiator I think we more often have this sense of wishing women would push passed our faux boundaries (shyness basically) and incorrectly assume women probably want the same.

nostr:npub1hj9ykwt2e8vzygrd84xxclant2eev6fd35a5386hv90rutr7x2gsnmfr6v Well I am glad you werent offended, sorry I startled you.

I think the problem is maybe men and women are a bit different in this regard. Men, at least most men, would be quite happy to hear a woman finds him handsome in some way. So we treat women the way we would want to be treated thinking it would make them happy, when in fact it may just make them afraid.

nostr:npub1hj9ykwt2e8vzygrd84xxclant2eev6fd35a5386hv90rutr7x2gsnmfr6v I had mentioned to you once that you had pretty eyes in a picture... Did you feel hurt by this or offended (I hope not)?

While I do agree that neither eyes nor breasts should be anything to feel is an acomplishment, and I'd agree real accomplishments and the praise there of is far more meaningful... I think many people feel better about themselves the more physically attractive they are. Maybe this is a bad thing, but I think most people feel better when they think others see them as beautiful.
