Theses is the plural of thesis. Kinda looks stupid out of context but there you go.

Yep, I know a Manuela from Germany!

Wikipedia says the root is Hebrew. So…. a European name? Seems pretty popular in Germany.

atomicorange ,

If it’s popular in Germany, given by a German parent to a German child and based on a Hebrew root word, I’d argue it’s a German name as much as it is Portuguese, Spanish, or Italian.

It’s all semantics though, I assumed your original question was about how common the name was in Germany, not about its linguistic roots. It seems fairly common. If you’re looking for a deep dive on the history of the name I’ll let you do your own research because I honestly don’t give a shit and you’re being kind of rude.

    This is the world feminists want. Dude is happy, bear is happy, lady is hiking without being attacked.

    What percentage of women do you suppose have had a man threaten to rape or kill them? Get violently angry at them? Sexually assault them or a friend? I reckon it’s near 100%.

    The fear isn’t that all men will assault them, it’s that any man might. It’s not irrational, it’s based on experience. There are men in this thread arguing that women should be arming themselves to stay safe, right alongside men arguing that fear is irrational.

    Fuck the men with hurt feelings. Your fellow men have proved themselves dangerous, time and again. Women will treat you like dangerous predators until men as a group start policing their own and building a world where women don’t have reason to fear.

    Ok. If you don’t want to discuss why post?

    atomicorange ,

    What aspect of your post are you interested in discussing? I found your assertion that the fear was irrational interesting, but if that’s off-limits we can talk about some other part…

    atomicorange ,

    Your condescending tone and weird insistence that we only talk about very specific topics in very specific ways makes me think you’re not interested in a good faith discussion at all.

    You seem upset, so I won’t push any more. Hope you feel better soon!

    Are you disagreeing with the thesis of the comment above, or just critiquing the quality of their data?

    If you disagree with the thesis, can you explain what your position is?
