    I sort of understand malignant narcissism and its early victims. I’ll never understand the suckers who fall for it again after it’s been clearly and publicly exposed. Idiots are going to give this POS more money for a new project, if they haven’t already.

    It actually is an issue. Most women don’t like having their cervix punched repeatedly. Girth can also cause pain. It really sucks when you can see it in their eyes that they start hurting but they tell you to keep going (my SO gets mad if I stop because she decides when she taps out).

      A fun thing I’ve learned recently is that cocks too big to take everyday are called “vacation dicks”. The “just right” ones are “boyfriend dicks” or “husband dicks”.

      The latter part here is the important thing. She communicates it, and until she says otherwise, don’t stop hammering or you’ll frustrate her.

      My ex wife just couldn’t enjoy it, but tbh that’s because she wasn’t that into me. My girlfriend now just goes absolutely insane for it. There is a noticable physical accommodation difference in the two that I feel, and I guess the major difference is that she has a minimum arousal level before it’s effortless for her. And that’s both of us, its not great if Im not SSJ Blue and she’s not lost her mind enough.

          It’s quite variable too. I’m very average in terms of length and with one partner we discovered that that’s enough to hit the cervix. She did not have a pleasant experience that time. Others have been fine with my size (minus one size queen who found it far too small)

          Narcissists don’t work that way. If they like you enough to have sex with you, good chance you saying no in the future will hurt their ego and now you got a stalker who will tell your family, friends and police all sorts of nonsense to attempt to trap you.

          It’s never worth it.

            Well, I was making a joke. Obviously people should be careful with who they share themselves with and use their best judgment.

            Also I’m sorry for whoever hurt you, I’m not going through your account history but based on this comment it sounds like maybe you had to deal with some narcissist bullshit first hand. Me too, so best of luck and hopefully it has or will get better.

              Haha it’s not me, it’s a buddy of mine who ignored all warnings and started hooking up with her. But she has dragged in people from my social circle, involved children, authorities, etc. It’s a lot of stress just being involved second hand.

              Just really serious with my warnings because too many people think “I can change her/him” or “Its just this one time, it won’t matter”. Narcissists are super dangerous to deal with and will metaphorically burn the world around them to get what they believe they deserve. Much like the current US president.

          I love this picture, because nobody is wasting time wringing their hands about the impropriety, they’re all just doing what they see as needing to be done. Whether it’s the guy speaking, the one handing him notes, the people yelling at him or trying to physically stop him from speaking, or the people defending him with their bodies and physically holding back the ones trying to stop him.

          The sense of duty is on full display from all sides in this image, and everyone is doing it with a sense of decorum too. A breach of procedure for sure, but who can say anyone in this photo doesn’t look in total possession of themselves?

        Hah yeah it really doesn’t, does it‽

        She is Elizabeth Holmes. Convicted fraudster responsible for Therenos which promised to sell miracle blood testing kits, but actually just got a lot of investor cash and conned a lot of people. Looking at this trailer, she still seems to believe her own crazy, but who knows.

        He is Nathan Fielder, I guess you’d call him a filmmaker comedian? His schtick is that he’s basically able to put people in awkward situations in a way that is frankly hard to describe for me. The Rehearsal and Nathan For You are both very very unique and hilarious, but not for everyone.

        I am unreasonably excited for this movie.

        The woman is Elizabeth Holmes, the Theranos fraud.

        The film tho

        On September 6, 2026, You Can See Everything, an A24 documentary depicting Holmes in the weeks before she began her prison sentence, premiered in a surprise screening at the Telluride Film Festival.

          The woman is Elizabeth Holmes, the Theranos fraud.

          The what?

          Just kidding, I just looked it up myself. She started a company with a product that didn’t exist… that’s all?

          The whole story reads a bit underwhelming. But I guess it was a big deal if there is now a movie about it.

            Not really a movie, just some guy followed her around a bit before she went to prison. She isn’t inherently interesting, just I think people are fascinated by a twisted mind like this. Especially because the documentary/whatever apparently doesn’t paint her in a good light, and she still allowed it. Delusional from start to end.

            Surprised you’d never heard of Theranos before though. ColdFusion did a great short doco on it.

              She’s also really representative of the tech world of the late 10s on. SBF was juicer in drama, but Holmes is wild in what she managed to get away with and how long it took before anyone noticed it wasn’t physically possible to do what she claimed

      In the trailer she comes across as a complete psycho. But not in the conventional way. She comes across as an unhinged narcissist pretending to be sickly sweet and kind. Probably because that’s what she is.

    So I floated this video between LICSW and LPCC friends independently. All said she looked like she was in complete dissociation. The give away is apparently her voice?

    The smile looks fake, but thats a “passive distant smile.” As in she’s completely withdrawn into a protective state. Her eyes only focus on the DIRECTION of Nathan, not Nathan himself.

    Whatever happened prior to that clip caused her to severely dissociate.

        Two things can be true. And if this is dissociation, a challenge to her self-image could have easily done it.

        I found myself isolated to a relationship for 18ish years with one. I could write a book on narcissistic personality disorder. That’s why I sent it to my friends who are professionals in this. I thought I recognized it.

    I have definitely had the reverse experience. Ends up meaning certain positions are off limits, have to be gentle and careful with every thrust. It’s not a great experience for either of you.

    I haven’t seen the movie yet, but I can already tell she’s the monster.

    With those completely dead eyes and that humanesque make-up style that you see on hell-fled demons trying to fit into normal human civilization; it’s even trying to build a nest by luring in that unsuspecting man into its den with her spawn in that crib (probably to feed it when it hatches). It’s already scaring the shit out of me.
