No, Your Dog Isn’t Like Your Child

I’m a country girl who grew up surrounded by dogs and cats. As a young adult, I adopted my first cat, who was my companion for over 10 years. When I finally had to say goodbye, a friend accompanied me to the vet and literally had to help me out because I was sobbing so hard I could barely breathe.

Racist, Sexist, Homophobic Jokes Aren’t Funny. Here’s How I Handle Them

Disagreements happen, but no one tries to hurt anyone on purpose—this kind of behavior is unacceptable in my circles. Still, no one can fully escape microaggressions, and these subtle remarks can cause even deeper harm. Maybe that’s because we don’t call them out enough, choosing instead to accept a little too much. But I don’t think that’s okay.

Gen Z Trends I’ll Never Follow as a Millennial

There’s that moment in life when you say out loud, “This just isn’t for me anymore.” For me, it happened when I tried parting my hair down the middle and saw a slightly desperate Harry Potter staring back in the mirror. That’s when I knew: I officially entered the phase where I don’t chase trends—I peacefully let them go.

I Get That It’s Tough for Men Right Now — But Taking Away Women’s Rights Isn’t the Answer

You don’t have to scroll far on social media or forums to see posts, videos, or comments saying women "want too much," "ruined men," or that it’s "time to take control back" from them. Behind these words lies not just frustration but a real social crisis. Yes, many men are struggling — but questioning women’s rights is definitely not the solution.

Are you his girlfriend or his mother? Why do women mother their partners?

In a relationship, it is natural to take care of each other from time to time. But there is a limit when care slips into uneven burden-bearing – especially if one partner behaves almost like a parent towards the other.

Recently, a theory has become popular again that women really only want 20% of men. The debate started on social media and recently gained new momentum in connection with the film Kamaszok: a scene from the film highlights how complicated young people's relationship expectations are and how distorted images of gender roles and expectations can be formed.

How Ghosting Affected Me and How I Rebuilt My Self-Confidence

After my divorce, it took a long time before I gathered enough courage to register on a dating app again. Even the first steps were scary: getting to know people again, opening up, talking to people who know nothing about me. At times like this, one is especially sensitive – at least I was. At the same time, I was excited: I wanted to feel butterflies in my stomach again, I wanted to experience the thrill of connection again. But then came the first ghosting, and it shattered my newly built self-confidence.
