You guys remeber all the shit I caught for being insensitive when Hugos rat died? And I made fun of him for getting all emotional over a rat?
Is this another double standard? Women and manginas feel more deeply than ANYONE could ever possibly feel about a macho man?

Vador,
The main thrust of activist feminism right now seems to be total autonomy in child rearing, this comes under the guise of gay marriage. They want to have children and not have to share them with the fathers. Trish Wilson, Ampersand, and Elizabeth Kates and Peggy Drexler (Raising boys without men) for examples of this type of feminism. Seemingly this branch of feminism is also filled with the ranks of women who feel guilty about having denied their children their fathers. This branch of feminism has a surprising amount of power, however it is waining. (under it own weight MRA's havent really influenced it at all)
There are less influential butch lesbian feminists as well. They don't seem to be about much more than proclaiming that all men are rapist, abusers, who like to have sex with young boys, and exploit girls. Andrea Dworkin(rot in hell), Ginmar, Amanda Marcotte, and Hugo Schweitzzer are this type of feminist. Their power is more or less gone outside of academia. Sane people simply got sick of listening to them complain all the time and offer no solutions. However we are still saddled with some of their accomplishments in law. Culturally they are irrelevant anymore. This branch of feminism is fading fast. Look at the total take down of Germain Greer this last week... Also, they were ultimately counterproductive because sexual harrasment laws are now firmly entrenched in business, and that has created gender cliques in the workplace that have been a substantial glass ceiling for women wanting careers.
Then there are gads and gads of girlz! (power) type feminist who are not really feminists at all. They are simply divas (wana bes) that are fat and ugly. They bitch and whine that the world doesnt revolve around them, they way it does the pretty girlz (power!) OMG Ponies! These were the girls that Hugo Schwitzer was banging back when he had sex with his students. Happily, most of these girls grow up and join the rest of world as they mature.

I realize domestic abuse is much more complex than this...
But rather than going down this road, how about these women just stop dating men who are really obviously violent? Like, every actual domestic abuser I'v met, it was apparent to me within 20 minutes that they were that type of person...

Wow, I forget how different things are abroad. If a traffic cop asked me where I was going, I would tell him it was none of his business. I can't ever remeber a cop asking any questions beyond "Do you know how fast you were going?" or "Do you know why I pulled you over?", followed by "License, insurance and registration."
Aside from fine (which i do complain about a lot, loudly) I don't think American traffic cops are that bad.

TMOTS,
You seem to be claiming that George Bush invokes some sort of Godwins law.
I think you are absolutely right.

CaptainDMO,
I was mistaken, this is just their heavy water production facility for their heavy water nuclear reactor which goes online in 2009. At that point they have all the plutonium and tritrium they want from resources mined in Iran. They no longer need a uranium enrichment cycle. Once the reactor is operational they can make the materials they need in short order.
As for the fate of Iran if they nuke the US or its assets... It seems clear enough to me that the leader of Iran has the personality of a suicide bomber. However, if they hand the materials off to an Osama Bin Laden type character they could engage in nuclear warfare with some impunity with truck delivered bombs. Who do we bomb if terrorists nuke an American city?
Also, when I think about 9/11 and the goals of the liquid bombers (and the actions of the chechnian murderers and the bali bombers and..., hezbolas missles into israel), mass murder for mass murders sake, without any recognizable political objective, I am uncertain what deterent effect (if any) our nuclear weapons possess against these types of people.
As far and Iraq exporting taining and techniques... I am a laymen, but the recent Israel vs hezbola war seems to show the effects of this training and experience. Like it or not, the Arabs seem to have a mounting military effectiveness against western militaries.
Anyhow, now with the emerging nuclear component to all this, it doesnt matter if we stop them 99.9% if time if they attack us 1000 times. We still lose. At that point, all the reprisals in the world don't do anything for the 300,000 vaporized dead people and the 3,000,000 that die in the days and weeks following such an attack (100kt bomb on a modern industrial city... guestimated casulties), and just imagine what life looks like in a post nuclear terrorism America or Britan.
Finally, and I say this with the deepest respect for our fighting men and women in Iraq. I don't see the victory. We have won every battle we have fought, yet victory certainly seems to elude us. In a recent George Bush presser, he admitted that this situation will persist for at least the rest of his presidency. I have a really hard time seeing how peace loving republican democracy emerges from this. It looks to me like communist russia invades Afghanistan version 2.0. We all know how that ended.

I was gonna hold my tongue in respect of LSBeens ocupation howere since yesterday the situation has degraded even further...
The Iraq war has definately caused Iran to speed up their nuclear weapons pro. Additionall the US at the very least, appears impotent in doing anything about. So even if (and that is a monstrously large IF) the iraq war in not a breeding and training ground for future terrorists, the terrorists will be nuclear armed in the next 6 weeks to 3 months now that Iran can make unlimited amounts of plutonium.
So directly because of George Bush and Tony Blairs criminal actions the next terrorist bomb (and its gonna happen so the fighting them there so we dont fight them here is falicious with the simplest examination) is now going to be a nuclear bomb. Both England, US, and Israel will lose cities in next year due to nuclear attack. And that will be a direct result of the Iraq war. Iran is clearly going for a Hiroshima effect, that is after we all lose cities all our countries will surrender.
As far as im concerned right now, Bush and Blair have managed to find total defeat, a prospect not even thinkable 6 years ago.
So those of you who are not muslims yet, better get used to the idea of bowing to Mecca 6 times a day because that day is coming...

There has been a series on Hugos page about how men invariably look at women and 'rate' them. Hugo talks about needing three seconds to clear his mind of it, or some such. Hugo claims he knows a professor who has rated his students numerically (I think he is lying something doesnt add up in his description) Somehow their description of this phenomona over there doesnt apply to me.
For whatever reason I don't do this to women. Generally I dont notice details of a persons appearance until I speak with them, and their sexual appearance is somehow relevant to me (casual flirting perhaps) ... The exception of course being, when there is something unusual about the woman (or men) in question. The most notable being obese women(which is not the reaction they are talking about!!!), probably followed by women wearing particularly revealing clothing.
Why is my experience as a 'chauvantist' man so decidedly different from a suposedly 'feminist" man. Ladies, wouldn't you prefer a chauvanist man who has some couth to a 'feminist' man who stares at your boobs?
Finally, I have spent the better part of the last year working out (strength training, none of this pilates bull shit), and I catch women staring at me ALL THE TIME. (2-3 times every day) Generally this makes me feel good about myself, I can not ever recall resenting this. On the other hand, when I am riding my bicycle and women catcall me from passing cars, that does make me feel uncomfortable.

My thought is....
Wouldn't the public be better served by taking all the resources the bureaucrats spent on jailing him for eight days, and attempting to collect money he doesn't have, and just giving it to the mother ,or even better give it to the child in the form of a college education when he/she is 18.
It cases like this it is painfully clear the people who need to be cut off the teat of big government are the ineffective social workers...
I am having trouble determining what the bureaucrats are trying to accomplish in cases like this. Also they are talking about prison now. I wonder what the point is? I wonder if he lost his job when they put him in jail for 8 days. Does taking action that will cost him his job, make it more likely or less likely he will pay some child support?
It is really hard for me to have sympathy for the single mother because she had choices every step of the way, and I suspect this guy didn't magically transform into a loser over night. Rather than focus her angst at some guy who has obiously always been absent, she should be working on herself to make this situation right, for a child who probably would not choose a situation like this.

Mother nature is a vicious bitch.
She made you.
Yup, as food. A tasty morsel for a lion, tiger, or bear.

The notion that Catholics "worship" saints is one of the most ignorant lies ever told to people, as even a casual review of Catholic doctrine will reveal to a person of minimally average intellegence.
Being a recovering Catholic... Go ask your priest if he believes in God. Did he give a straight answer? Why do you suppose that is?
And if I wasn't worshing saints all those years, why did I pray at an alter with a hunk of some dead guy in it?

Well along with the xtianity thing...
Mary was a virgin, unspoiled by a man...
She is saintly because she... engages in paternity fraud agaisnt Joseph...
Then they lead a lifelong sexless marriage...
And Mary is the one that Catholics worship!!!! They should be worshing Joseph because he is the one that put up with that shit!

Circumcision African style....
http://www.capetimes.co.za/index.php?fSectionId=271&fArticleId=3310268So basically, if mandatory circumcision is started on the African continent, 10s of thousands of men will die each year, and there will be an aids explosion.
Nevermind the UN and WHO are the ones who started the AIDS epidemic in Africa in the first place with the vacination programs in the 50's and 60's.
Haven'y you people already done enough damage???
