I'm surprised more women can't dunk on a regulation net. Lots of shorter men can dunk, and while the response might be that they're more powerful with a bigger vert, don't women of a given weight typically weigh less? I'd expect them to not need as much power.
I'm 6 feet and even at my physical peak I could only dunk a tennis ball. There are probably more women that can dunk in optimal circumstances but it takes way more energy at shorter heights that you probably would only attempt it on a breakaway and even then you risk being a bit too tired and missing the dunk. JJ reddick is like...6'4" or something and he only dunked once that i can recall. IIRC he later said it took so much out of him midgame he decided only to do layups after that.
I don't mean like, the avg bro- meant pros. Is the number of around-6-ft'ers in the nba that can dunk really that small? According to that article, it makes headlines when it happens in the WNBA.
Judging by this random website, the avg NBA vertical leap is 28", the 95th percentile of men for vert is 28", the 95th for women is 19"
So that's another 9 inch difference, it's definitely harder for women to dunk
I had a 27" vert basically NBA amirite
I never measured mine but I've been able to grab and hang on rim before (at physical peak, and probably rim was like 9'9" or something I would have to imagine)
I think my dunking times have passed me by. Poor injuries
We would do a mini combine thing for ultimate tryouts. Timed 40, standing vert, running vert, timed 1.5 mile, timed 3 cone drill. Kinda fun. Running vert only 31 cuz idk why. No explosiveness i guess.

guys is this picture ok for my tinder picture or does the fact that I'm not actually smiling give away how depressed and sad i am at having to take a selfie in order to convey what i currently look like
because the mere act of taking a selfie immediately tells the girl seeing my tinder profile that 'he must not have friend's to take pictures of him, no social life, nope swiping left'
can you see that is that what this picture says
it is isn't it
You look disappointed rather than interesting or excited.

I heard about this book because an acquaintance contributed one of the stories in it.
I'm not sure whether any of the contributors have families who immigrated from further west than Pakistan, but it still seems maybe relevant to your interests.
Good Girls Marry Doctors: South Asian American Daughters on Obedience and Rebellion, edited by Piyali Bhattacharya, is the first anthology to examine the multiple facets of daughterhood in South Asian American families.
The voices in this volume reveal how a Good Girl is trained to seamlessly blend professional success with the maintenance and reproduction of her family’s cultural heritage. Her gratitude for her immigrant parents’ sacrifices creates intense pressure to perform and embody the role of the “perfect daughter.” Yet, the demand for such perfection can stifle desire, curb curiosity, and make it fraught for a Good Girl to construct her own identity in the face of stern parental opinion.
Of course, this is not always the case. Certain stories in this collection uncover relationships between parents and daughters that are open and supportive while also being exacting. Many of the essays, however, dig into difficult truths about what it is to be a young woman in a world of overbearing cultural expectation.

alright so that girl at the party a couple weeks ago was right when she said
"you're shoulders give you away, the way you stand says you're afraid of what people think about you"

alright
i do have the skydiving video, i didn't think of taking photos from it
what's a good way of like..extracting a single photo from a video file?
After that small tangent into the conundrum of words I ran off to the bookstore
Found a book on Derrida that warmed my broken heart - A link to the essay in particular but Plato's skepticism of the written word also echoes
In short I ended up buying $100 worth of books about difference and repetition
I think that's one or two three or more more pips into Etiquette: Academic than I'm specced for.
Did you do a BA or a graduate degree in philosophy? I love philosophy but it's a casual relationship; not a whole lot there for me outside of half a dozen classes in undergrad (half of those political philosophy) and reading L'etranger and Sartre's fiction.

It imagines your cooking style as the product of some bizarre case of cargo cult cookery accidentally producing something of worth
Lots of practise and feedback, and I guess as an amateur I have an emerging style that looks for bold primary flavor combinations. I can definitely taste things! I also seem to have a weird thing where i can remember exactly what something tasted like to me, so I can reproduce it later.
I went through a period of oversalting / spicing things but I'm past that now.

The real solution might be to live in a not-expensive metropolitan area before it becomes an expensive metropolitan area.

yup
5 for all in slams is fine by me too!

*tapes down boobs, weeps*
Or just get a dog.
I'm more grumpy because I can't afford to buy the first house my parents bought even though I'm doing better for my age.
Once a guy lied, and didn't have the husky in his profile.
I was upset and heartbroken.

We got leroy as a pup senior year of college and our roomates were constantly "taking him on walks" down in high traffic areas to talk to girls.

Nods.
It'd work on me. :P
Also note her hair glows and the ponytail is actually a hand
Also also, some pics you'll find from the Wii version are mirrored, so the relic would cover the wrong eye. Take note, is her left eye covered! ;D
Probably. It's also likely shitty for breathing, causing back pain, and oxytocin/cortisol ratios.
Shitty posture is a good thing to be conscious of.
Dog deceit is the lowest possible deception.
I have also read that you have anosmia
