I’m talking about the competition involved. I’m well aware of the work. The closest I got was working on a commercial fishing boat as a at-sea fishery observer. I mean that they are graduating HUNDREDS of people every year for a few dozen jobs. I’m sorry, but there is a lot of competition, and I don’t think it is…

From what I’ve vaguely remember reading, it’s the opposite. That women usually team up with men to victimize people. Think serial killer couples and shooting spree couples.

And I honestly think this is part of why no want takes these issues seriously. I just don’t think this semantic squabble is where the Left should be taking this discussion. It should point out there is a difference. There is a big difference in society-wide racism and this incident. But that doesn’t mean we should…

I also have vaginismus, and I also think anal hurts less. For me, it was more the “feeling” was too weird. This is why I am on Team No Way.

I’m sorry, but as someone that majored in biology, I have to say it is incredibly unrealistic to tell people to “intern with a biologist.” Biology is EXTREMELY hard to get into, and I highly doubt people competing with straight A Masters students would get a chance. I’ve been trying to get a single foot in the door,…

No, they are sentient animals. They deserve the right to exist. I think it is more important for them to exist and possibly get a (better) second-chance than to die out completely. This mentality is why so many animals are going extinct. Purists who would rather them die than possibly imagine a better future for them.

Because it is saying women shouldn’t be seen in public? Why is that acceptable? Seriously?

I agree. But the problem is that people believe even criticizing them makes you “racist.” As if Islam isn’t the second most practiced religion in the world.

So if a woman believes that all women are inherently inferior, we should just accept that because it’s her “choice” to be a misogynist? I guess. Though, I’m not going to stop calling her or any of the Abrahamic religions inherently misogynist.

This isn’t the first time I read this (Santa being Moor). Interesting. I should read more about his origins.

Then what is your argument exactly?

““Yikes - look at that guy! People must freak out when they see him!” says more about the person making the comment than it does about anyone else.”

Yes, I really think this person just does not get how horrible it is with a deformity. Obviously, it’s cruel to suggest “wear an eyepatch.” But it’s how the world is. It’s the “Just get a white dude to be your ‘CEO’ of your startup if you want any funding” advice to female startup CEOs.

I read what the person said. Go read it again and then take a moment to read all the comments here. Clearly, quite a few people do “recoil” and shit from a deformity that has nothing to do with this dude’s revenge porn.

“My girlfriend, friends, and colleagues don’t think I’m creepy, or a monster, or recoil from me, nor do they beg me to wear an eye patch or sunglasses all the time, to protect their fee fees.”

As someone born with a deformity, this is how people treat you. Sorry the truth hurts.

I certainly think we should call all the mass killers terrorists.

Read the Quran. Read the various hadiths. Heck, read the Bible. Remember that part in the Bible that tells you that if a girl is raped, the rapist pays her father some money, and she is forced to marry the rapist?

I do think people choose to wear it. After thinking back to my super religious days, I remember now how I would do anything to be more “moral.” That’s basically what it is. The idea that you are a more moral woman if you are invisible. What you said about their existence being inherently shameful is spot on. Misogyny…

Hell, isn’t that one of the biggest “sins” of the bad tourist is someone who doesn’t even attempt to respect the culture of the country they are visiting?
