  • Wow

    Thanks AKA Smith. Have you ever seen anyone more hateful than Raider6704? The fact that he writes "grrl" to mean girl, is such a telling sign of just how misogynistic he is. He can't even write the word "girl" without expressing his contempt with femininity. He hates women with a passion, suffers from obvious paranoid delusion, so it would not surprise me if he is actually a serial killer stalking around the country side somewhere. In the interest of public safety, someone should look into that matter.

    Yeah, as if your near flawless writing, and my typo strewn efforts were not evidence enough that you and I are completely different people, but we also write quite differently. You argue with your intellect, where as I argue with raw emotion.

    But I do feel complemented being compared to you, and is has been a pleasure standing up to these "disgrace to men" characters, and exposing them for who they really are with you.

    Lets do this again sometime.

  • fetboy - hope you're using tissues

    No one likes to see the smear all over the screen after that little self love fest.

  • Couldn't help looking

    This thread is amazing and hard to believe. From "Mistresses ruin corrupt Chinese official" to talk of penises, rape, nazis( this one seems to be quite popular).

    Thruth is stranger than fiction people.

  • Paranoid Delusions

    "What Broadsheet Feminsts(tm) are after is an identity politics driven agenda in which they want to place women in all sorts of superior positions wrt a man."

    Anonymous, do have any idea how paranoid that sounds?

    Here's a hint, Feminist are not out to get you. They are just trying to make the world a better place. Making it easier to prosecute and convict date rapist (of either sex) is part of the Feminist agenda, and yes making it harder for men (or women) to date rape will make the world a better place. Why do you have a problem with that?

    Why is it that you can't understand that a man has a penetrating organ, and a woman doesn't? If women had a penetrating organ they would probably rape as often as men do, but they don't, therefore men are more likely to date rape. Date rape is not a gender balanced issue, because the anatomy associated with date rape is different, which is why you can't approach the topic of date rape as if it affected both sexes equally and in the same way, just as the issue of breast feeding can't be addressed as a gender balanced issue.

    Maybe I am not a good feminist for having said that, but it was so obvious that I had to point it out. Now can you accept why it is that a woman can't rape a man without an inanimate object?

  • Because rape is more than penetration

    Pillock.

  • Actually I take the "Pillock" part back

    Its uncalled for. No need for me to descend to your level.

    But anyway, rape is about far more than simple penetartion, and their a world of sexual abuse/molestation that can be practised by both sexes.

  • You're contradicting yourself again Fetby

    You can't claim that men cannot be raped by women and then claim that the goal of feminism is to stop date rape by either sex.

    You can't claim that only women can be raped in the face of facts that demonstrate that that is not the law, and then claim that feminists goal is not to place women in legally superior positions.

    You can't examine NOW's stance on sole custody vs. shared custody and compare it to Fathers' rights groups and say that Broadsheet Feminism(tm) goal is not to place women in legally superior positions.

    You can't examine Equity Feminism's position on issues and compare it to Broadsheet Feminism's position and claim that Broadsheet Feminists(TM) goal is not to place women in legally superior positions.

    Fetby, as we have examined before, you're an old fashioned patronizing, condescending, sexist chauvinist. You don't believe women are equal, you believe women are weak and need special protections. You don't believe women can handle alcohol or can take responsibility for their actions, you want to be their protector daddy and infantilize them. Yours are not the opinions of someone that thinks women are equal.

    You are not a feminist.

    QED.

  • Kicked your ass!

    Well anonymous.

    It looked to me like AKA Smith did a good job of kicking your ass, and she's a woman. The reason why I am a feminist is that I like watching women kick the shit out of pigs like you.

    Your weak, and guys like you need to go. Yeah I do like watching women replace men like you in power. Soon men like you will never be in power, and that will be a good thing.

    Blackpaw, can you write anything that doesn't prove that you are a pig?

  • Fair enough AKA Smith

    Got me!

    How could I have been so stupid! There was all kinds of dissent against Nazis and communism and muslims question the Koran every day. But you stopped there...

    Who are the great dissenters and skeptics that regularily speak out against feminism today. I don't see them on TV or in the newspapers. I don't see students publicly speaking out and marching against feminism on our college campuses. On the contrary it's considered "hate speech" and censored.

    You know why?

    The leftist mass media controls and carefully manipulates the messaging. The gynocracy runs our educational systems. That, and no public figure or celebrity would DARE speak out against the feminist agenda for fear of retribution and losing their livelihood. If I've missed one please let me know. Paranoia? If that's what you want to call it.

    You're either a feminist or your for equality and abolishing double standards. You can't be both in 2007.

  • @Fetby, re: "grrl", you're such a clueless idiot. @Agent Smith: re: Fetby, it's amusing you think this guy rocks.

    So Fetby, earlier you said that writing "grrl" was a sign of misogyny.
