Girls that claim they go to the gym because they do Pilates classes and spin. Great for cardio but unable to lift their own body weight. Most girls lack. Will likely get them killed if they encounter a natural disaster. No way of holding on to something, or pulling themselves to safety. Likely to get a man with good functional strength killed by trying to aid the damsel in distress.
I broke my back trying to save that bird from the Tsunami! I thought she said she went to the gym 5 days a week! She’s got no functional strength!

high functioning and low functioning are both common medical term which are actually very harmful to use.

they're often used to measure how easy disabled people are to interact with and not actually how their disorder affects them.

when someone is labelled as high functioning, people assume they have no struggles whatsoever, so they don't look out for them. and then they might have a meltdown or burnout because they've had to push through those feelings all of the time.
and when someone is labelled as low functioning, people assume they're stupid or something along those lines, so they baby low functioning people. even when they're full-grown adults!

(when i use the term "disabled" i mean anyone who is affected by a learning disability or anything similar, if my usage of this term comes off as offensive, just know that i apologise, but i am saying all of this as a disabled person, so ofc i wouldn't use that term to purposefully harm anyone!)
Person 1: so you have high functioning autism?
Person 2: on the outside that may be true for you, but on the inside life is very difficult for me, so i'd prefer if you didn't force functioning labels on me and just do your best to support me instead.
P1: oh crap, sorry man, thanks for explaining

A person who has not had sexual intercourse despite appearing to be physically and socially capable of doing so. This person might look good but struggle with communicating with the preferred sex or being unable to close the deal. This could be due to "putting the pussy on a pedestal" which makes it hard for guys to speak to girls.
Many good-looking guys who are well-groomed and take care of themselves are functioning virgins because they don't go out and take girls on dates or even attempt to introduce themselves to girls because they're afraid of rejection. An example would be like Gym-Bros

A lot of guys are functioning virgins because they don't go out and take girls on dates or even attempt to go out of their way to introduce themselves to girls because they're afraid of rejection. Either that or lack confidence.
