I did too but I wonder if that's due to having watched the American version first. I think which version I watch first has a huge influence.
Nuvigil is actually a fantastic drug for people with sleep problems/narcolepsy. It doesn't act like stimulants. I've known plenty of people that have taken it, none with any side effects. All prescription medication comes with every possible conceivable warning. That's just covering their asses.
It doesn't matter if they're wrong about the intent in this one area, and your invalidating a group's feelings and dictating what they're allowed to feel offended by, which clearly is nothing, doesn't change how it's received. They have reason to feel attacked as so many "feminists" have framed the discussion as us…
Of couse not, but nice try, and yet another fail. What I've said repeatedly since my first reply was while I know the intent of #YesAllWomen, I've also heard the reasoning some offended men have given and I have EMPATHY. What you've countered with is "I don't care who gets offended and I'm not interested in…
Thanks. Can't say the same.
I'm not a man. You know what they say about assuming. (Too late in your case.)
It's weird that Starbucks never seems to get my name right yet they always get my order right.
What an odd response. I replied to your digression about rape kits being processed and other ramblings bringing it back to the actual topic at hand because none of that justifies or supports your accusatory approach. There is no "winner" to this discussion. I've explained why a man could be offended. You've dismissed…
It's not men's fault that the system does a shitty job prosecuting rapes. It's also not the only area they fail. That has nothing to do with your accusatory and offensive approach. Again, if you don't care about shutting down you audience at the gate, then it's anyone's guess what you hope to accomplish beyond scoring…
lol, so every situation is rape. How convenient for putting sole responsibility on one party, and condescending. So when a woman leaves with a man from a party to have sex, takes him back to her place, talks dirty to him and engages in consensual sex, she can claim years later it was rape because her internal dialogue…
Rapists are usually punished too - if it's proven. How about false rape accusers? Not so much. They're defended and coddled. Should we teach women not to falsely accuse rape? Oh wait, I already knew that. Just as I already knew not to murder (no lessons, just a normal human being), not to rape and not to make up false…
That would work if you said we need to teach men named John not to murder. See how offensive and absurd that sounds?
Would you suggest we need to teach *insert race/ethnicity* not to rape/steal/assault? Of course not because it would be offensive and a condemnation of all, regardless of statistics. If you don't understand how opening with an accusation shuts down your audience, you're more interested in lecturing than dialoguing.
Wait, are we talking rape or consent education? Because women are just in need of consent education as men, unless that was just a euphemism for all men are innately rapists.
Obviously your message isn't clear if people are taking away from it that which you don't intend. If you don't care that you're sending the wrong message and thereby are offensive, well then you're no different those people you suggest deliberately misrepresent.
That's not a lesson only necessary for men That also suggests a malice and ignorance unique to males, which is why they feel unfairly singled out.
"every feminist knows that not every man is a harasser or a misogynist"
Why is that the seagull's job? If I had to personally take on ever wrong doer that resembled me, I would need a lot of Starbucks. And coke.
That's a refreshingly mature insight. (No sarcasm.)
