I love this, I love how women fight for equality but when they get the shit knocked out of them, it gets more coverage than the Vietnam War. If two guys knock the shit out of each other, they walk away and maybe have a beer over it later.
Point is, women will never be equal to men unless they want to be equal on ALL terms, ALL across the board… and in a sense (and I hate this term) “man-up”
btw, that looks nothing like Pamela Anderson or Halle Berry…really bad poster?
@...token2k6:
Gee, I don’t know. What if a woman were to knock the shit out of you, would that make the news? Would you scream “Assault!”? (see how I manned up there?) And what does this poster have to do with abuse?
@Annarchy: I was just using abuse b/c it does make sense when tied to equality and stating it like that and its relative in the media right now. Would I scream assault if I got beat up? Only if I wanted to do greater harm to that person under the penal system than anything else.
but we can also apply this in the work place. While sexual harassmant isn’t as rampant as it was a few years ago, men can sit and tell dick and fart jokes all day long, hell, get a company where its nothing but men, and its just like Mad Men on AMC; but if a woman at work just happened to peep over my shoulder and see a non-NSFW, but risque, post on MCS; she would not stop until I was terminated.
all i’m saying, is if women want to be equal, and according to nyokki, they are, then just stop playing the ‘weaker force’ card in all situations b/c you think a man did you unjustice.
@...token2k6: I think you kind of missed my point. Actually it flew over your head at mach 5. Women don’t need to become equal, we already are equal. We have always been equal, regardless of what anyone ever thought. There was no time when we weren’t equal. I don’t have to pretend to be as strong as a man to be equal. I don’t need to pretend I have a penis to be equal. I don’t have to do everything and anything to prove my equality. I was born w/ it, as were you. You seem to be under the impression that I have to prove equality in some way. Not gonna fucking happen! I don’t have to be fair in some way to show that I deserve equal status. You don’t get to tell me what I have to do to be considered equals. You don’t get judge my fitness for equality. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
lol here i am commenting about this stuff again. and again i agree with both sides. o_O YES, women ARE equal, and they don’t need to prove it… but yes, it is annoying when women play the “weaker force” card. I think what people need to realize is that it is by NO means all women that do this… the ones that do just get more attention because they’re being ridiculous…
Gah I hate it so much when I’m around a bunch of men who don’t know me well, and they all get quiet and awkward. I LOVE dick and fart jokes and looking at porn. And I KNOW I am not the only woman like this…
I believe a lot of women just keep quiet and try to act like they are *supposed* to, or in extreme cases completely deny that they have interest in that at all and that is probably why they act with aggression toward it (similar to the biggest gay-bashers being homosexual).
OH and P.S. there’s plenty of men on the planet that hate porn. I wish people would stop trying to compartmentalize people… it just doesn’t work.
: )
Holy crap, fell out of my chair….ouch.
Where do I sign up ?
this wont piss anyone off

Argh. Okay, whatever. Your mom should have slapped you around more.
Phail. Pamela Anderson could clearly care less about Feminism. 😛

@...nyokki: you had it going, but your equality ran out on you 😛
BAH! Salma Hayek is the only non-white chick i’d do.

For some reason irony just doesn’t feel especially funny anymore. Maybe it’s decades of it being bombasted at me from all sides as edgy.
