Pro-tip: when you've outed yourself as sexist and racist, make sure they know you're ableist too.

Yeah but instead of being about rods and cones or whatever it's just whether or not you're a racist that affects how you see it.

This is why I don’t read the MP any more, just GT. I come over just to amuse myself with racist trolls for a bit, then retreat for months. Which, by the way, why are there so many dudes here now?

Is choosing to be offended like choosing to be gay?

How?

Yep, they are invalid.

Thanks, white dude. You’ve managed to mansplain and whitesplain so masterfully here that my tiny woman brain now understands the horrors of reverse racism for the first time.

Banishing her to an island along with only other mentally ill women would keep her out of jail and eliminate future children, too, but that doesn't make it ok... there is certainly a kinder, less invasive way to achieve those aims than sterilization, is my point. And loads of people in our society do already support…

Obviously you can't "prove" that any future events will occur. Do I think any of this is particularly likely? No, not really. But I will say that getting people comfortable with any particular cultural/technological/whatever practice under certain circumstances does tend to lead to people being comfortable with…

Great. Here goes: people come to accept cases like this. Then, states start making it an option any time anyone is charged with child abuse. We take your kid away from you, and to avoid jail time, you get sterilized, so that you can't abuse any more kids. Then, we decide that that is too complicated — any time…

But this scenario is even weirder! I mean, what is the point of sterilization? Is it to stop her from having any more kids and possibly mistreating them? If so, then we shouldn't offer jail as an option, unless it is going to be for the rest of her life, thereby ensuring the same thing. Or is it punishment? If…

First, I understand that many people here are being quite outspoken and harsh and are calling you sexist and various other non-complimentary things. Despite the fact that you have called me a misandrist, I have not actually at any point called you or your initial comments sexist. Please don't conflate me with other…

Yeah, as is "get raped or go to jail." They are all "choices," but the point is that we don't make people choose between their bodily integrity and jail because it is cruel and unusual punishment to make people not only endure that type of sacrifice, but feel like they have "chosen" it as well.

Definitely it's true that the comparison is not entirely "fair," but as far as consent goes, it is exactly equal. If the two options are, go to prison or do _____, then it's hard to argue someone is really consenting to _____. If we are talking medical procedures, what if, instead of coerced sex, the _______ was…

What if they offered someone the option to have sex with someone in order to avoid jail time? Would you say that was cool? That the defendant had really consented to that sex?

Regarding your perception of how the media portrays women, you are 100% wrong. There are plenty of "airhead bimbos" (Phoebe on Friends, Karen on Will and Grace, sorry that I haven't watched TV since the 90s apparently!, Gloria on Modern Family, Mandy on Last Man Standing) and the stereotype of the nagging,…

Of course hatred of men is real. Hatred of sandwiches is real too but we don't need a name for it because it's simply not widespread/consequential enough. Similarly, a lot of the women that men accuse of misandry simply believe in the existence of sexism and dislike men who are sexist. But you know, I bet you…

I don't fully understand what you're saying because it seems pretty convoluted. I do have to say that you've helped me clarify a new rule for myself: I don't give blowjobs to people who believe that misandry is real. This might be why you've had a hard time getting lucky in that department!

naw, I wouldn't accuse a man of misandry. That's just illogical. You'll notice I didn't accuse you of sexism, either. But it's good to see you outing yourself so quickly!

That's depressing... I guess I understand your vantage point a little better now — dudes whose wives won't put out seem to think it's part of some grand lady plot to tie a guy down and then stop having sex. It's not. Plenty of women want sex too, even after they are married! Sorry you haven't had this experience.
