My thoughts aren't in a language, so this always confused me as a benchmark.

I was reminded it exists today, does that count?

I'll leave this here. Good resource for evaluating news sources as you come across them also.

I haven't played it myself, but I understand there are mods to remove nudity at least, and I would expect the sexual violence as well. That would be a requirement for me to try it.

Fear and Hunger is a contender. If you aren't aware, imagine a JRPG where you kill god at the end, but you don't ever level up. Also the first enemy you fight is very likely to kill you, and has just as much of a chance of doing so on your 100th playthrough. Oh, and you start from the beginning every time you die.

Health, vision, and dental are all separate in the US.

Context is important, since the person saying this has a security detail and holds office where the threat of violence against them is real.

We all have a visceral reaction to this because we've had an adjacent experience at some point. You know it's true.

I think the point is that incentivizing people to have more sex isn't the answer to a declining birth rate.

Effects and the cause?

The problem in marketing feminism to young men is it many of them have not personally experienced, or at least understood, how being a man gives them advantages in society as opposed to women. Young men also have a difficult time understanding how easily they can be viewed as toxic, creepy, or even dangerous without self control and respect for others.
I wish I had an answer, most of the young men in my life are more right leaning and think "feminazi" is a legitimate wat to describe left leaning people.
