That's it! Everybody STOP using heels, women!! Not because it might turn your feet in to mush, but because Rufus doesn't like it. What a relief we finally get his permission, imma right?

Forget about it. Next time there is a mention to Neko Case, there will be this single isolated comment of "This racist homophobic bitch again, ugh!", and the bashing based on an out of context quote will continue.

No, actually, it's a repository of information that anyone can edit, that, due to it's nature, is prone to manipulation from a specific community set on social privilege , be it based on sex, ethnic origin or population number.

He's a privileged individual saying his privilege doesn't exist - this would be a funny issue in itself, even if there wasn't a largely problematic history surrounding the pack he admittedly belongs to, which there is. Your apologia is what happens when one takes things at face value with no accounting for context.

Because it's an individual that's part of a systemically privileged social group, saying the privilege doesn't exist, while, at the same time, he's part of a pack that's set on maintaining and re-enforcing said privilege, mostly by means of silencing and tormenting those who are underprivileged.

It's funny how you seem to have the need to bend this in to a strictly "logical" field, when, in the end, this macho "gut feeling" is just another way of…

I like it how some people use what goes on in Wall Street, as a great example of the benefits of risk-taking. Really like it.

This. Most claims of "men are like this, women are like that", are not made as a form of exposing a problem that has to be solved, or much less criticize societal gender divide; they are used to excuse and re-enforce the status quo as something "natural" (read, inevitable), and to fixate a notion of superiority over…

It's still interesting how girls are described as "reasoning" about the questions, while boys are more... emotional about the same situation.

I fail to get where exactly did I say I'm totally up with women beating men, or even that I automatically take it as a lesser harm, but...

"Seriously, Gillford, the abuse apology is disgusting."

Looks like somebody has a huge ship on the shoulder against those old hag feminists...

Don't apologize to MRA trash. Look and behold: already they are grinding their venom against VAWA, because preventing violence against women is an absolute outrage to these gents... One has to wonder why.
