upj4hk | What's the weirdest sub? | Meatball. Like, who decided that something circular and decidedly unsandwichable should be in a sub? Don't get me wrong, it tastes amazing, but it still strikes me as weird. | 2,590 | AskReddit |

For those of you that can't click the link, it's a sub where people Photoshop out the dick when a woman is giving a blowjob but leave a bit of the head, which makes her mouth look closed, resulting in a very weird face. It's a completely unnecessary and ridiculous community and yet it exists.

upj9j7 | Hello.

When you don't put food in the stomach, then there is much less stimulation of blood flow to the intestines, so then ischemia is much less likely to happen.

upjadt | From what I’ve been taught, there was a one child policy in China. Parents preferred to have boys because they would be better than girls. This led to having abortions, killing, or abandoning any female babies birthed. But why wouldn’t they want a girl baby so she could eventually repopulate? | boys used to work and generate money while girls would be married and live as housewives, usually the parents of the daughter would have to pay for the wedding and then after that the daughter would be maintained by the other family's man. Also males used to carry the family name opposed to females who would adopt th... | 110 | NoStupidQuestions |

This led to having abortions, killing, or abandoning any female babies birthed. But why wouldn’t they want a girl baby so she could eventually repopulate? | Men have significantly more opportunities in China and this was even further exaggerated back then. Families who were depending on the success of their children to escape poverty or to earn face and were limited in their number of children would vastly prefer to have a masculine child. | 30 | NoStupidQuestions |
