ParticipantNo more refugees will be allowed into europe. They’ll be shot at the border. Short turkey? This must have some economic effect.
Arabs are super misogynists. They trwat their women like crap. Its definitely not subtle or difficult to perceive. Stock play there?
If saddam hussein could’ve just not invaded Kuwait or been less of a dock about inspections, assad could be in syria, the Iraqis could be under the thumb of saddam, and everything could be cool. Stupid humans

ParticipantIs this another 9/11? Can’t tell. Shorting seems obvious but obvious is often wrong.

ParticipantA group at ucsd asked me to come speak about being a lawyer.
Half my rap will be about student loans and finances.
Probably not what the expect to hear.

ParticipantIt’s more of an accusation of weakness, sissiness. Women are weaker, on the whole and that’s why they love men in uniform and badges. Protection.

Participant[quote=CA renter]Here’s yet another sexist quote that flew right over your head (one of many).
[quote=scaredyclassic]
Inocuous according to a reasonable middle school male hoping to be accepted by normal male peers so he can have normal relationships with other grown men
Not Inocuous to a little bitch.
More likely than not, son was trying extend friendship in a,peer group. Now the kid is likely to not get such an invitation from those kids at least.[/quote]
You do realize that “bitch” is a sexist word when applied to a human, right? And when someone calls a male a “bitch,” it’s considered one of the more serious insults; it’s more likely to start a physical fight than calling a male a “dick.” Ask yourself why that is.
Here are some other juicy ones that are likely to start a fist fight:
c*cksucker, f*ggot, motherf*cker, c*nt, (if you think that’s insulting to a woman, try calling a man one), p*ssy, vag*na, etc. All of these have to do with the feminization or emasculinization of males. They are some of the most insulting terms…why is that?
And the most common, and most insulting words for a female? B*tch, c*nt, whore, slut, C*m dumpster, etc.
When I tried to get this across to you, you seemed unaware, as I’m sure most people are. That doesn’t mean that sexism and misogyny don’t exist. You’re just unaware of the majority of situations where it exists.[/quote]
Bitch has been adopted by women, much like the N word. I don’t think it works anymore. Women talk about hanging with their bitches, etc.

ParticipantYou ever get to that point in an argument with your spouse where you’re not even sure what you’re arguing about anymore?
Usually just the girl is crying but you’re both dizzy with the distances travelled?
I just read THE ARAB OF THE FUTURE, a comic book by riad sattouf, Charlie hebdo contributor, about growing up in libya/syria. Now that shit is midogynistic! We barely register on the scale.
Microaggressions?

ParticipantBottom line: boys have cooties. Stay away.
Also…girls are gross.

Participantguy gets his house foreclosed in 2009. He knows the bitter sting of foreclosure. He is not an expert on the mortgage crisis and is not qualified to speak on it in a larger sense.
A slave is beaten in 1847. He suffers under slavery. He is not an expert in slavery and is not qualified as an expert in it in its larger historical context..
A young teen man enters a prison and is terrified of being raped. He is not an expert in sexism or the culture that produces it. He is one scared person who may have an interesting tale to tell, but it is just one tale, one set of feelings.
Feelings aren’t knowledge and personal narrative is not wisdom. It will by its nature likely miss important connections and contexts. To answer your question, no, I would not know more than a gay guy about homophobia, because I also just have one limited perspective. Given just those two options, two individuals, the individual with personal experience might have a bit more to say about it. But maybe not. The gay guy might be a halfwit with no interest in learning, no ability to empathize or connect or understand what the hell is going on in the bigger picture. Social identity does not mean the person has real knowledge. Can we learn more about the mortgage crisis froma guy who’s been through it. Yes, maybe, a bit more, but we might learn even less. He might be a moron. He might blame all the wrong causes. In fact, he probably will exhibit all kinds of biases. One data point, obviously, one little tale in a sea of information. Same for all individual experiences.
This disagreement we’re having though may point to a deeper issue, an issue concerning how men and women may be wired differently. Women, it seems argue by way of feelings. Feelings and connections may carry more weight than less personal data.

ParticipantThey know more.
They get info from many different people, different perspectives and lots of varied sources. Their accounts are far more interesting, informed and meaningful than any individual participant.
It would be rude to tell a holocaust survivor ao, perhaps but, it’s true.

Participanta person may experience something directly and yet know way less about the phenomenon than someone who did not, or a person froma completely different era
this is why novelists and historians can virtually always explain and make more real an event than someone who has lived through it.
Someone in the middle of or directly experiencing an event may actually be in the worst possible position to be able to understand an event, due to emotions, lack of research, overview, emotional intelligence, etc.
a jew getting shipped off to the death camps has direct experience of antisemitism, yet may also be lacking in a big picture overview, may not even have seen certain signs of impending disaster for many psychological reasons.
so, no, living through an event qualifies one to only give a personal narrative, which may or may not be more widely applicable. it might inform further research, but it cannot replace it.

Participantsince strong men are sought out by women, and parents generally want their sons to be sought out by women, wouldnt it make sense to socialize them to be strong, socially and mentally.
personally if I had a daughter id be sending her to krav maga from age 2

Participant[quote=FlyerInHi][quote=scaredyclassic]maybe the oldest one will move back in with us and commute for a while. that would be very good if it all worked out just right. we like him so much. it would be kind of strange if he stayed and got married and there were kids here too. actually, that would be amazing.
maybe it’s just a fantasy, but from my perspective, I cannot think of anything I would like more than a multigenerational household, if Im the oldest. not so much if i were in the middle. probably be great for the little guys.[/quote]
If a husband obeys his wife, he will likely move in with his wife’s parents, or have them move with in with him. His own parents will be second priority.
My cousin got a son, but he wanted a daughter, because he said that a daughter will always be dad’s little girl, whereas a son will eventually belong to his wife, haha…[/quote]
when we first returned to calif. , we lived with my wife’s parents. about 2 weeks. i begged her to stay longer, the money was just piling into our bank acct! any longer than that and I think she would ahve gone insane. too bad. i ouldve been happy to stay. we couldve built up some money real quick. didnt bother me, i was at work all day.
