Of course, there is NO such inherent conflict between being a working man and being a husband and father. Daddies are supposed to bring home the bacon and momies are supposed to fry it up, blah blah heteronormativity, blah blah, idealization of a mythical past that excludes almost everyone, blah blah blaaaaaaah.

Gay,…

Awh. She's so cute with her assumption that my husband's full-time salary is enough to support our family and that I have any desire whatsoever to stay home to assert my "nurturing side" with my adolescent sons.

Unrelated to anything ever: I initially read "to bolster traditionalism" as "of lobster traditionalism". Immediately, I pictured a lobster in a top-hat and tails, holding claws with a lady-lobster in a flowing gown and headband. It was ADORABLE.

LOL @ "A PRO-MAN MESSAGE." Finally, right?

Ah. I dunno, but I wish male rappers had to wear heels. All men in heels all the time! They should do it because it's sexy and I like it, and that is the only thing that matters in the world.

Is having to be shorter than a guy when wearing heels still a thing in 2013?

You should change your screen name to Ridiculoushelicopterdogparent.

Oh my god watching you go from sincerely trying to convince people you're right to incoherently attacking people with more knowledge and experience than you is absolutely hysterical.

Lol, for real. "At the risk of repeating myself, let me just copy and paste from my previous post." I also lol'ed at how many times they commented that they were done with this thread but then kept coming back.

You're not risking repeating yourself, you're actually repeating yourself. I'm sure that occasionally a dog—a smaller dog—gets seriously hurt by a cat in a household situation, but also? Dogs sometimes hurt other dogs, cats sometimes hurt other cats, but mostly they just have non-harmful fights and everybody's fine…

And that video of babies eating lemons isn't funny, either! People are betraying the trust of their babies for a thrill. Those babies will be traumatized and terrified of lemons for life! We should actually ban these types of videos. And we should ban lemons, and cats, and babies, and dogs. And laughter.

I can just…

At no risk because I am repeating myself, the Siamese cats in Lady and Tramp were not meant as a documentary on cat-dog relations. They were a racist representation of people of Asian descent; their dishonesty and viciousness

We get it; you hate cats. Move the fuck on already.

That's because you're on crack or something which renders you incapable of actually responding to the conversation at hand. Dogs aren't any less violent and predatory in nature than cats; they're usually a lot bigger and stronger which makes them more of a threat. Are you so fucking lost in your own bias that you…

Yes, all veterinarians, who go through far more arduous training than M.D.s, are crazy. Yep, you know how to construct an argument, all right. Thanks for yet another stellar demonstration!

Then I suggest you remove the mirrors from your house, lest you exceed your quota further.

Oh no, were people standing up to you? You poor dear. Your life is so hard.

This from the person who just listed "offensive postures" by cats that include none of the behavior in the video, as "proof" that the cats were behaving as predators— ie offensively. I'll tell you what, when you can understand the difference between "offense" and "defense," as well as between "predation" and…

Wow, that person is absolutely bonkers. I'm amazed you managed to stay calm and even attempted to civilly educate them given how batshit bananas they were being.

The cats in these videos are not hunting the dogs. A dog bigger than a puppy does not excite a cat's urge to catch and kill, nor do cats that are hunting have any of the body posture or motions observed in these clips. You are watching defensive behaviors, for the most part. These cats are not attacking the dogs…
