We've done the other....who here believes in sexual benevolence?

[Wounded Bear]

[redqueen]

1. Benevolent sexism ties into rape culture.

This lounge thread is dismissive.

[Major Nikon]

2. Holding doors for women = rape

Good point.

[redqueen]

13. That's not what I said. And you know it. Why are you twisting words to dismiss feminist concerns?

Is honest discussion that difficult for you?

[NaturalHigh]

7. That is the craziest thing I've read in a long time...

and believe me, that's saying something.

[MattBaggins]

27. The Major says a lot of crazy things

[NaturalHigh]

33. Actually, Matt, I was replying to Redqueen.

The Major gave me a chuckle.

[Major Nikon]

3. Does that mean you have to put at least half your weight on your elbows?

[NaturalHigh]

5. You get the post of the day award, Major.

[randome]

6. If you don't already know how to tailor your activities to your partner...

...you aren't doing it right.

[XRubicon]

8. Pity sex?

[TDale313]

24. Had the same thought...

I get the concept of benevolent sexism, but still trying to figure out what sexual benevolence is.

[NaturalHigh]

25. When you figure it out, let me know.

I'm still stuck on the "door thing."

[The Straight Story]

9. So if I only have sex with women I am a sexist? (nt)

[NaturalHigh]

10. It will literally not surprise me if someone answers affirmatively.

[99Forever]

11. If it doesn't browbeat all men...

... regardless of their personal behavior, it's not welcome here.

[NaturalHigh]

18. Nothing new under the sun, I'm afraid.

[Iggo]

12. Wow.

This is going nowhere fast. Since you probably won't self-delete, I'm gonna go ahead and trash thread and try to pretend it never happened.

Have a nice day!

[demmiblue]

14. Me, too.

I wonder how many people are getting sick of this.

At least Meta kept most of it out of GD.

[quinnox]

15. the brigade is all over general discussion

they have a lot of edumacating to do.

[seabeyond]

20. wrong again. men are all over gd creating OP after OP after OP proclaiming their victimhood and the

mean ole feminist picking on them. they canot do it honestly. because it is not happening. so, the have to create a total lie to be outraged about and run around with their hair on fire.

your post is a perfect example. another post to vilify feminist creating a lie to make yourself and other men the victim.

[NaturalHigh]

21. Men are the bad guys...got it.

[MattBaggins]

28. In this particular case they are.

Those who have crawled up from MRA just to be assholes ought to be ashamed.

ought but won't

[theKed]

31. Too much shame

not being allocated, imo

[NaturalHigh]

34. What the hell is MRA?

[oldhippie]

29. Tell me about it .....

I just got a post hidden for giving one a compliment. I guess they think I would only have done that for nefarious reasons.

[redqueen]

30. "You're pretty smart for a (woman)" is not a compliment. nt

[oldhippie]

32. I most definitely did not intend to imply .....

... "a woman." Guess again. (I'll give you two more guesses.)

[Bobbie Jo]

37. Well

I notice that you don't seem to miss too many of these threads, as you can usually be found smack dab in the middle of the muck.

Go figure.

[rucky]

16. sexual benevolence:

[NaturalHigh]

17. Now you've done it!

You mentioned circumcision.

[cherokeeprogressive]

35. Cut!

That's a wrap!

[Generic Brad]

19. Sexual benevolence implies gender superiority

And I am not down with that.

[Apophis]

22. ...

Trash thread.

[Purveyor]

26. Seconded. eom

[NaturalHigh]

23. I like popcorn.

[LittleBlue]

[NaturalHigh]

39. Will someone please tell me what MRA means?

Those who have crawled up from MRA just to be assholes ought to be ashamed.

Seriously...what does that mean?

[quinnox]

40. its the arch villians of the

sub-group "History of Feminism".

I think it stands for Men's Rights something.

[NaturalHigh]

41. Oh, okay.

I guess I'm not up on all the slang from that forum. Of course, I've never been in there, so that's understandable. Some guy used that in a reply like I should know what it means.

[LadyHawkAZ]

42. Men's Rights Advocate n/t

[NaturalHigh]

43. Thank you. Next time I'll know.
