Social Science - 7 October 2007

What is the point of trolling here or trying to engage in sensible discussion? Why subject yourself to the soul-destroying environment of sanctimonious, condescending, hypocritical women? And why behave even worse than they do, whether you're kidding or not? All you do is fuel their paranoid ideology. You don't accomplish anything but that as far as I can see. Why not just leave these women alone, especially since many of them, rightly or wrongly, believe that this is a forum for women and feel you're invading? Why not just respect that and go?

I want to hear how you answer these questions. Try not to think about how they're related when you respond.

1. Is there such thing as a good cop?

2. Are all racists bad people?

Now back in the olden days, where there were many fatalities in childbirth, I could respect women for their strength to survive childbirth.

But nowadays, you women are in hospitals with all kinds of pain-killing medicine.You could even have a C-section if the baby's too big, which is painfree because they numb the nerves. Modern women are wimps compared to the mothers of old.

I have to admit I'm codependent and definitely display all the typical codependency signs. I don't know what has made me this way, or what brought about this "disorder" or whatever you'd like to label it. I need help solving this problem within myself though! I do not want to go to a counselor right off the bat. I want to know if there is anything I CAN DO myself, to help with my codependency. A lot of my relationships have been destroyed because of this behavior. I think the first step would be to make some serious changes within myself and my daily life, before I talk with any counselor. Any suggestions, ideas, input? Thanks.

In my friends' college, fraternity printed a newspaper, listing by name the women that the fraternity members had slept with at a wild drunken party. The newspaper also contained information about some of the sexual encounters with these women. When this newsletter somehow got out of the fraternity house, several of the women on the list filed a sexual harassment suit (internal to the university) against the fraternity. They thought that being sandwiched by two drunk frat guys was the right thing to do, but publishing the newspaper was wrong!

So feminists, if you support sexual liberation and think women are allowed to do whatever they want, why be so ashamed? Is it because deep down everybody still knows right from wrong? What do you think?

I live in L.A. We had the biggest earthquake yet, everything was pretty much ruined. Everyone was panicked. It was like Armageddon day. People (particulary Asians) were going up to this hill, and on top of it was a 30 foot wide deep dark blue water hole. And in front of the water hole was a dead lamb. People would go to the dead lamb and pray to it. After praying, they'd jump into the water hole, and dissapear (die) in the water. I'm Mexican by the way. But yes, I don't understand this, it is a spiritual dream.

(I was inspired by a question that Tera asked :))

I'm wondering about connections between women across races and religions in feminism and women's issues..

I know that many feminists are interested in women's issues in both 1st and 3rd world countrys. And feminists are active in indigenous rights and were for a long time. And there are Christian feminists and Islamic feminists and I'm sure there must be other religion feminists.

It is not difficult to bring people together on the Net to comunicate and support each other and work together and any search engine shows that much this is being done by feminists already.

So I'm wondering how you feel about networking and conferencing and sharing our experiences and ideas between feminists of different races and cultures and religions and discussing problems and successes that we are having and help each other out.

Do you think we need to be doing this more?

As Brother Happy pointed out, some of you believe my posts are, in his words, "useless and bad." I don't claim to be right about everything I say, think, or believe in. What I post is meant to get people to think, and if they agree with my views or not, if I have accomplished the "getting people to think" part, I feel I've done something useful.

What I'm wondering is, what is really the consensus here (or is there one?) regarding my posts?

Your thoughts are welcomed...here's you chance to totally rip me apart, so go for it!

.... i want to know if im crazy.

here it goes.

i imagine myself in the future, living alone, in a field or a part of a mountain, maybe even deep in the forest-somewhere far away from people. i want to just be able to run through a field, scream, shout, sing, SCREAM my feelings outloud, cry, laugh. the only thing is, all alone.

thats how i imagine myself. my attitude will be very not intune with the world, like i am half there and half not, im not interested in food or eating, and i do medical research. these are my true feelings...........what do you think of them. Truthfully.

I am prochoice when it comes to abortion .

If you make a decision to carry a child to term you should not smoke , do drugs or use alcohol

I have some cognitive issues derived from my biological mom smoking and drinking and taking arbituates when she had me

My brother on the otherhand is a pediatric cranial plastic surgeon

this is not a pity party i have had a job for 12 straight years but every day anything technical or word processing like is a challenge for me

i recently saw a friend hand a ciggarette to a pregnant lady . it offended me but i dont know how to approach it .
I do not think in this day and age a woman should smoke when she has a baby .

Do you agree ? How do you approach this if you agree?
If you do not agree tell me why ?

This is inspired by Tera's question...

I see the anti-feminists on here frequently making two statements:

1) Feminism is destructive to society. (Here they will talk about divorce rates, children without fathers, feminization of men, affirmative action, etc.)

2) Most women are not feminists. (They LOVE to point this out, with surveys of women who claim that they are not feminists)

So...where is this power of feminism to destroy society coming from, if most women (and most men) are not feminist? This seems to me to be a contradiction.

BTW--I don't support affirmative action.

Also, I think there IS a national crisis of children, especially boys, growing up without fathers. (But I don't blame this on feminism).
