Because women can drive themselves
Which is an atrocity. It is absoltuely emasculating therefore it should be banned.
and a man owning a car is neither a requirement nor a strategic dating advantage anymore either.
No, since it is way more than only that. It is about having something in life you can build on. It is about having a foundation.
What's it about then? From memory it was to do with dating and women etc etc.
Then you clearly did not read any of my posts despite the fact I have explained it today once again. It is about having a foundation in life. I will post my statement once again:
''This is a quote:
''First off, a driver licence in Germany costs more than 2000 Euro at least. Theory lessons are mandatory and you have to do all 14 topics. Then you have to wait at least 2 months for the permission to do theory examination. The test is also harder than in America for example. You also have to do more than driving 5 minutes within a parking area to get your driver licence here. Most likely you have to do more than 20 hours of driving and then you have to do 12 specific driving lessons which are mandatory and you also have to pay for it.
Let us say you need 20 hours of driving. You have to pay 1 Euro for 1 minute. Let us say you have to pay 80 Euro in total (because 80 minutes in total) for one driving lesson and you do have 20 of it.
20 hours of learning x 80 Euro = 1600 Euro
Then 12 hours for mandatory driving lessons, in this case 45 minutes: 12 x 45 = 540 Euro
Mandatory theory lessons: 300 Euro
Learning tool: 80 Euro
First aid, pictures and other stuff: In total 100 Euro
Then you have to pay for theory examination and driving examination which I do not know the exact price for it, but let us assume both together cost like: 100 Euro in total
Let us say, you failed once at driving or theory: Another 50 Euro
Extra costs for official documents and so on: 100 Euro
The driver licence in total: 2870 Euro
I also have to add driving simulation since the driving teacher told me to do this first instead of having the real experience behind a steering wheel. Perhaps you now know where I am coming from.
The driving teacher said to me 10 hours, so the cost will be about more than 200 Euro for that.
Driver licence with driving simulation: 3070 Euro
While in America you pay like 20 bucks and you have to drive 5 minutes in a parking area for it. So, there is that.''
Another quote:
''I am just bad at driving, it is that simple. Is not it weird that you did not think about that for at least one moment? Only because you do not have any problems with it, does not mean that I can do it as well and the last poll showed that I am not the only one here actually.
Same goes with everything else. Let me give you an example in order to create a better basis of understanding:
Imagine being bad at math or just another topic you might be bad in it although it is needed within this society. You just cannot get behind it, while another classmate seem to not have any problems at all with it. Do you at least now know where I am coming from? At least a bit?''
Another quote:
''I also try to work on that one, but like said, I am struggling with it and therefore I do not have any appointment for another driving lesson. The driving teacher told me to do driving simulation first.''
Another quote:
''To elaborate this topic furthermore. At my first driving lesson, the teacher told me literally, that I have no foundation whatsoever. On the second one, which was quite recently, he told me I should do driving simulation first. He said, I was to nervous. Also, it felt extremly forced and I had no fun whatsoever on both driving lessons. Most likely due to the fact, I am just bad at it.''
By the way, we also do not have a learner's permit or anything similar to it.
Another reason why it might be harder for me, is my age. I cannot deal with it. At driving school everyone was between 16 1/2 (you can start with theory) - 18, while I was 25. It just feels forced at this point. They have also all the support for their parents, their parents also pay for it.
Like I said, I am struggling with it. Imagine you are bad at something despite the fact you are trying, now apply this to driving. Even some other people here are sutrggling with it, for example
@Barnacle @rightfulcel @ThePlagueDoctor @unsettling and even some other people. So, I am really not the only one and I am not just seeing things here, specially when I look to the last poll we had about this topic.''
Also, I will quote another user, since he described it in a short sentence:
Drivers license pill is real. I don't see how people can't understand it. Driving is a sign of independence, without it you are a little boy dependent on others
Is about feeling emasculated, inferior, to people who drives. It's not about getting sex out of it.
Indeed.
