Thats interesting A.G.

There was a forum called Secret Women Business and i used to mod that - but your right the men just trashed it beyond repair and eventually it was abandoned- we ( Muso and I) change it to The Tavern and now that they are welcome there it is desolate- as for Honky I mean I dont care but he is making himself look weird- thats up to him I guess. and yes pretty pathetic.

As a mod you couldn't do anything about it.? [h]I wouldn't go there because of the [/h]. and had hoped this one might be different.

Rubbish. Coming to see the crazy cat lady flipping out was the only attraction of that forum. It certainly wasn't the quality of debate that drew us in.

You as a male, was not supposed to be there - and you still dont get it. No one wanted males in SWB and you only caused trouble- debate is normally kept to Politics and other. Try there. Not very bright are you?

Not supposed to be there...

Noone wanted you there...

You only caused trouble...

Sounds like the story of feminism.

Well Honky I don't see any women here trying to gate crash the Mens Shed- maybe out of respect or something Roll Eyes

Honky you defending males here by saying " we no complain" but your profile says your female- which is it- hard to argue certain issues on the basis of gender if you don't make that clear- I suspect you enjoy the confusion, so I wont ask you again

Nah Sarge, Honky is a bloke. No confusion.
Goes back a while when the thread was called 'Secret Women's Business'.

What a bad joke. Grin

It was a playground for males seeking to denigrate women. They even got paranoid enough about 'feminists' that they thought I had somehow arranged that only women could post on it. So several of these fools changed their gender symbol. Most of them , like GP , have changed back. Honky still seeks to lie so he can gey off on hi twisted view. A ready avenue for the likes of him. So, I won't be replying to him. I think he is a bout 25 going on 15, but who knows? All I know is he isn't worth the bother.
I guess it means once again that women get ambushed every way they turn, by people who should know better, but don't.
I find the lack of reasonable comment a clear sign that most of these posts are made by men. How pathetic is that?

and yes pretty pathetic.

The "denigration" and "trashing" of that forum was merely a few posters, who happened to be male, trying to get a reasoned argument from emma peel/jalane or whatever her name was at the time.

Feminists need to distinguish between disagreement and abuse. Pointing out inconsistencies, contradictions, or faulty logic is not abuse.

says Culture Warrior

However I'd suggest that terms like old crones.. or the other personal abuse I cop isn't particularly pointing out anyhting at all but the intent of the poster. To do just that. Denigrate belittle whatever.

Of course I couldn't care less. But your claim that it was all Hi-brow reasonable comment is utterly false, and ludicrous. Grin

First up, love the "feminists need ...". Like we're a homogenous blob or something. Yes yes sir, all feminists are unable to discern between disagreement and abuse. It's not like we're ever had to deal with either, so hard when we have to navigate the big bad world without men's guidance isn't it? We just need so much explained to us.

Secondly, i'm pretty new here and i've seen how Emma is treated. If you don't want to engage with her, don't. Stop poking her with sticks to titillate yourselves over her reaction and let her post in this here arse end of the forum in peace.

Too hard for you?

Feminism is a homogeneous blob because it deals with how men treat women. Its initial point of departure in all matters is: Men are doing this to women; therefore, men must change.

Feminism doesn't work without first setting up a case of women being oppressed by men.

You've been sadly misinformed.

You've just reaffirmed what I've said. You've set up an oppressed/oppressor paradigm of women versus men.
