why are there so many threads started by men on thumped about how shit women are? (1 Viewer)

i just cant believe you and your pals could be so naive as to think that this thread is nothing but a huge piss take. its great that yis are feminists and all but the only people who come across like nazis on this thread are you, jane, brian conniffe etc. yis are either taking the piss or you seriously need to get a grip on reality.

"nazis"? piss off rampz. looks like you share more similarities with janer than just your appearance. anyhow, you are not doing a very good job of defending yourself regarding the fact that you have been acting like an absolute tool on this board lately. actually, i cant remember the last time i have read a post by you that has been anything other than snide, condesending, glib, bitchy, begrudging or sharing a private joke with your mates.

please feel free to continue to bitch about me - someone you have never met - with your little group of friends. you can even call me a faggot if you like.
 
Well then stop using my name in ur posts.
Only PM title could be classed as abusive anyway...and let's be honest you do do it don't you?

haha, you really are a sad old git.
as i enjoy the company of a beautiful, intelligent woman, i'll try to spare a thought for you jerking off over your "barely-legal girl" porn.
 
But you met me with a lady friend? Or do you forget? ...I remember you....an emo type long leather jacket and a lifestyle beard.
 
online abuse. how brave you are.

i just cant believe you and your pals could be so naive as to think that this thread is nothing but a huge piss take. its great that yis are feminists and all but the only people who come across like nazis on this thread are you, jane, brian conniffe etc. for some reason you just assume that your beliefs are more worthwhile than everyone elses just cos youve all got womens studies degrees. yis are either taking the piss or you seriously need to get a grip on reality.

if you ever met me you would realise very quickly that i am neither sexist, homophoblic or a gobshite.



I think it's shocking that people are piss-taking about what I consider to be a very serious subject. The reason why you are piss-taking is because you don't have a clue about the subject and you are completely ignorant about feminism and sexism. If you weren't, you would have seen my point.
Just because I have an MA in women's studies does not mean I think my beliefs are better than anyone elses. I am, however, extremely well-read on the subject, as are Brian, Jane and many other members of the forum. So our opinions can be backed up by fact/studies/articles/books whereas most of the opinions expressed on here were nothing but cheap attempts to demean my thread, and me and any other women/feminists on here.
I am not a nazi. If anything, it is the people on here who are expressing sexist or prejudiced - or nasty - opinions who are the 'nazis'. I simply questioned - and still question - the prevalence of threads that were negatively questioning women in what I believe is a sexist manner.
I am just as entitled to my opinion as you are Rampz, however most of the bitchiness here has led me to believe that opinions like my own - and of the other feminists/anti-sexists on here - are not welcome on this board.
Because of that, I feel extremely sad.
I did feel angry, but now I feel sad.
It is sad that I cannot come on here and express a valid opinion without someone stamping on it and labelling me as a man-hating nazi.
It is sad that some of you are blind to what sexism is when you quite clearly say/write sexist things.
It is sad that after 2007+ years women are still not equal in the world.
It is sad that simply because I want women and men to be on an equal footing, I am ridiculed, called names, receive abusive de-reps from cowards and am made to feel unwelcome on a forum.

If anything however, all this has made me even more firm in my beliefs. I am a feminist, and for that I will never be sorry.

Let's have a list so. At least that way we can assess the "prevalence" of these threads vs. the total 48,134 (at time of writing) threads here.

I don't think there should be one thread saying 'why do women take so long to xyz', never mind more than one. The fact that there are any at all is what irritates me.
I already gave some examples of what I was talking about in a previous thread.

Well you did say they were a regular occurence, then went on to list two, (although you said yourself one of them wasn't a particularly relevant example of what you initially stated was a problem here).

Then you said "the one about about women not being funny", a thread started to discuss a piece on Newsnight about why women aren't funny, and not to attack women here for not being funny.

edit: and again, i'm not denying there's sexism / sexist comments here. My problem is that you based this thread on what appears to be a fundamentally flawed hypothesis and in doing so have applied a totally unfair sweeping generalisation against the people who post here.
