    Haha, I love how he says "I've seen this in countless feminist forum signatures", as if 1) you don't see it in a ton of other places that he apparently doesn't care about because they're not part of his petty vendetta, and b) that this is such a big deal - what the hell is someone who uses a forum called "Men Are Better Than Women" doing hanging out on feminist forums exactly?

    That's, like, porn for you, right?

    I never said it was logical, so no, I won't "admit that I was wrong". Just that the fact someone was so obsessed with proving it to be illogical pointed to a pettiness that I see in you too, and the fact that it was directed at women is illogical.

    You and I both know that men and women use that phrase, and you and I both know that, to you and your kind, if a man uses it it's because he's stupid, but if a woman uses it, it's because she's a woman.


    EDIT: Men like you actually cause the problem you're complaining about y living up to stereotypes which seem laughable to most of us. You would've been that fat dinosaur Andrea Dworkin's poster-child, the man who would provide evidence for all the bullshit she talked while evolving feminism sped ahead of her. You hold us back by making us appear as knuckle-dragging anger-fuelled condescending reactionary throwbacks, and for what reason? Because you think it's illogical not to be? Anti-male bias exists because people like you provide no reason for other's to be sympathetic.

    But yes, before you accuse me of being illogical, I get that it's an "illogical" statement. I get it the same way I get that all your crap is "logical". You invoke logic like a god and it's frankly hilariously childish.

    If these men really are better than women, why do they need to base all of their thinking off of some hate-spewing, power-hungry misogynist's website? If they are so mighty and logical, why can't they think on their own without someone telling them how to think?

    "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts."

    In their case, they invoke Logic (when, on an aside, they usually mean Reason) like some divine power that absolves them of any responsibility to be human, to be civilised, to consider the opinions of others. They think considering emotion in debate is irrational, unless it is their own, in which case they amalgamate that with their logic. He makes the woman who said this

    "Men know everything - all of them - all the time - no matter how stupid or inexperienced or arrogant or ignorant they are."

    seem wise and insightful, even though she also said

    "Childbearing is glorified in part because women die from it."

    and

    "No woman needs intercourse; few women escape it.

    being excessively logical is illogical for humans.

    It's irrelevant. He mistakes reason for logic. The difference is that we can reason things that are illogical, due to lack of or erroneous information. Logic does not attempt to fill in the blanks. I suppose that's arrogant and male of me to say, but it still amuses me that he's wrong on pretty much every count, and that he's accusing us of ignoring the topic at hand just because we're not following his tangent properly.

    logic...reason...whatever. i maintain if you try to base your life entirely on that you'll end up with a very unsatisfying life.

    I guess. I just know he won't appreciate that line of reasoning. Pedantry, he'll understand.

    it's annoying, isn't it? it reminds me of being in the high school girl's bathroom having to listen to "men are stupid fucking pigs." well, what with them acting like howling bitches it's a wonder any of them ever got together.

    Thing is, men are pigs, and women are bitches. The reason I like difference feminism is because it acknowledges that, and doesn't try to persuade men to act like women or women to act like men as a means of appearing to have achieved equality.

    I think you may be confused: you were talking about a quote in someone's signature about "fucking for virginity". That is not my signature. I haven't dodged "the issue" at all. You are right that it is an illogical statement. I have merely commented on how irrelevant, or at best tangential, it is to the discussion, and how ironic it is that you cited a source as reference which seemed as utterly misogynistic as you are, attributing the illogical nature of the line to the female sex, despite it being a common enough phrase among both sexes. No-one is pretending it's any different: no-one cared about "the issue" to begin with, because it was puerile tangential nonsense that you brought up to fuel your desperate fevered ego.

    I do not claim that my signature is "my own", since it is a quote from Futurama.

    Suckup.

    Honestly though, you do come across as deeply misogynstic, and the fact that you work with women doesn't make a huge amount of odds. Most misogynists are married, after all. They tend to have a very traditional view of gender roles - otherwise known as "Get back in the kitchen!"

    Oh' To walk in my shoes, for just a day. to induldge mans every whim, only to HIM she will slave, our daughters doomed to follow.. How can it be so, without a thought to the Mother who has brought you into the world, to condem her for loving you enough not to have aborted you.. Oh man of indignation who claims fowl as he calls her down from her throne, only to have her brush his tears away.. crying like a child in the night who has lost their passifier.. Oh Mother see them condem you as they crawl from your womb to suckle your breast.

    They scream injustice as they lose their grip on ownership of another human being, lording over them to gain a new bright feather for their EGO cap to flaunt and brag of domanence over their compainion.. to make them selves great over the suffering of their wives. What a great accomplishment you mongers of war have established with your need to be bigger and better then your mate.. do you feel better to hurt ones smaller in stature and physical strength, does it give you power.. Ahh the Wheel of Change has made its rounds and briefly, for a fleeting moment women are making progress while the men stand disgruntled bc we ave grow to the point where we DEMAND equility, as you watch your sports while we do the rest, you wonder why you do not get custody of your children.. I suppose when you start making breast milk that will change, but a childs place is with it's mother untill it is off the tit.. so go ahead and have your fit of unjustice for the men.. have you told your own mother that she is trash and undeserving of equail rights, she is just to be used by the man and tossed away when she gets old, that bites... that she does not deserve a good life where she is equial to her mate.. what an awfull fate to have given us.. by what right have you done so.. who left you in charge..look what you have done.. the imbalance over the centuries have thrown the universe off kilter with maleness, darkness without light is unbareable and produces no growth.. only male stagnation.. out dated wanna be the KING thinking..

    Religion took The Mother away bc they were a sect of gay men and wanted absolut supremancy over women.. as they were only to bare children to insure more males to be born and to do all the dirty work men thought themselves to GODLY to do themselves.. in some countries they kill the female children or sew their pussys shut to insure virginity... is this what you want for your daughters to bare.. does this make us femnazis bc we want a better life for our children..

    To the one that inciated this thread. you are a FOOL and your days are numbered.. you will come back as a women in a third world country and live the life of a slave... better watch your manners.. Karma is checkin you out dude.

    And that's what it really boils down to.

    That, and the OP being unable to get laid.
