    Yeah a doctor has to have a broken arm to know it feels bad, and to know what needs fixing and how to do it.

    The Top Ten Lies of Feminism

    I get it. When your ideals are reflected, everything is okay. When people are free to do what they want and be who they want, the patriarchy is oppressing. Got it.

    The Top Ten Lies of Feminism

    What else do you call changing the amount of a certain gender/race that is awarded or wins a position? edit: electing women should be based on women who decides to run and wins. Not based on encouraging women to run just because they are women. That is beyond silly. It implies women can't make...

    The Top Ten Lies of Feminism

    Who says women want to occupy half the positions? It seems to me many women are happy in careers other than politics. And others are happy being homemakers. We should just fight for colleges to accept at least 40% blacks since we have 40% blacks in the country. Their grades don't matter. We...

    The Top Ten Lies of Feminism

    Why do you assume women should occupy half of positions since they occupy half of the population? It seems to me giving them preferential treatment for advancement is more misogynist than treating them as equals. Your argument is assuming at the least and very poor at best.

    The Top Ten Lies of Feminism

    The equality argument is baloney. Women could be argued to earn more. Women got the right to vote almost a hundred years ago. Women get extremely preferential treatment by the court system in child cases because of their gender. Where exactly is the inequality feminists are fighting that...

    The Top Ten Lies of Feminism

    You're completely ignoring my point about God's instructions indicate a that the nature of each gender is very distinct and to be observed. It isn't some "Duh love and respect one another!" The different verbs apply to different genders.

    Even though the bible clearly states gender roles, from the very beginning? Help meet anybody? Gee I wonder why the bible tells men to love their wifes and women to respect their husbands.

    The Top Ten Lies of Feminism

    The thread is obviously about feminism as defined by 1st wave, 2nd wave, etc. Saying that suffragettes were feminists is silly when the discussion is about the modern definition. Quit playing semantics.

    What part of a study showing that woman who follow their career earn more than men who follow the same career is intellectually dishonest?

    If using Forbes/MSNBC is now unacceptable when debating with somebody who supports liberalism I don't know what is.

    The Top Ten Lies of Feminism

    Because they are more-likely to work part-time or be in jobs that do not advance as far. If you actually read the study I quoted from, you see that women actually earn more when they follow the same career routes men do. Women earning more = equality! If you disagree with women whining about...

    The Top Ten Lies of Feminism

    The only lies about feminism that matter (in my opinion): Feminism has never been about advancing women. It has always, -always- been about advancing LIBERAL women. Feminism isn't about men vs. women. It is about the inferior liberal woman who thinks with relativism and collectivism vs. the...

    I would save your money if the 360 version is the one you are looking into. They aren't even the same game, really. 360 - Engine will be a heavily modified Frostbite ("1.5"), mapsize is much smaller or the maps will be modified and limited. Anything involving long-distance gameplay (tanks...

    I love how every time this thread pops up nothing happens except people trying to defend their superficiality. Why does everybody try to pretend that aversion to laziness (poor grooming, obesity, etc.) is a valid point in their being choosy and picky when it comes to the looks of others? I...
