  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What's on your mind?

Fine, then this will be my honest dislike and disapproval (but not hate): No one is twisting your arm to stay here if you don't like this place, Meh. If you aren't fine with it, if there are too many "SJW feminists" for you or whatever, then leave. ... I have a feeling you more enjoy having reasons to be bitter and hate the world, though, which is exactly why you've stayed all these years and keep putting yourself out around people and their comments/views that apparently tick you off. Why else did you stay in that one community (Buzzfeed, i believe it was) with all the women you claimed insulted men for being shorter than them, just so you could come here and unleash your grievances with those few women at Buzzfeed out at us here? Even going so far as to be like, "Well, if these few women get to hate on guys for being short, why can't I hate on girls (apparently any girl was fair game to lash out at, even if she had done nothing to you first) who I think are fat?" And then make excuses for your crap attitude by claiming you are just being honest or whatever, or that you hate it when people are fake (my guess is just about any act of kindness would be fake and insincere to you no matter what).

I used to feel sorry for you because of your depression and misgivings, man. But not any longer. You bring negativity onto yourself willingly so you can have an excuse to indiscriminately be bitter towards other people in general, even if they are people who haven't done anything wrong to you first.

Let me tell you all something I had never revealed to anyone but my parents once before. I had come to be bullied, insulted, and harassed a lot by my sixth grade year, where I would dread getting up and having to go to school most days. And I distinctly remember one day that year that I finally turned around and, in my bitterness, sought out someone even lower on the social totem pole than I to make suffer for the wrongs done to me. An overweight kid who it seemed no one liked, named Jeffrey. When given the opportunity, I had everyone sitting around the table with me laughing and cheering me on as I verbally abused this poor kid who had nowhere to run. I was the one in charge for once, I had thought. Finally my time had come, to know the power of being one of "them", the higher class of kids who it seemed could just get away with torturing whoever they wanted, whoever they thought lower than them. ... And I was clearly in the wrong. Jeffrey never even tried to fight back, I remember, and I just continued to use the entire class period to cut him down and even have others with me laughing at him. I had completely victimized him when he was even more of a victim of hate and bullying than I was, and he himself had never done any wrong to me before. But my desire for vengeance and to finally know what it was like to be one of the higher-ups in the school social structure caused me to not even care who I hurt with my bitterness. Just as long as I could be the one dealing pain instead of being on the receiving end of it. And throughout the years, ever since I looked back and realized what I had done, I continue to pray that God forgives me for that time. Even if it was just once and over twenty years ago. It was still a grievous wrong that I will always feel some shame over.

But right now? That seems to be you, Mehguy. Someone, or a small group of people, somewhere hurt you once or even a few times and now the entire world - especially human women as a race, it would appear - has to pay for it.

So, yeah, you want honesty? There you go.




Well, that was more meant to be a joke on my part, but, yes, sadly, you are right.
I am passing on my award of most formidable to you :D
Well said!

Mehguy is fine in my book. Most people don't realize there is a whole, morbid world out there of men and women who quite frankly, act up. And that to talk about that, isn't a personal attack necessarily on the members of this website.

If anything bothers me, it's all the white-knighting here.

“White-knighting” is a term thrown around by childish boys who want justification for being arses to everyone else. It will be a great day when those boys will grow up and show respect to the people around them.

Since we are being honest and all.

I'm just wondering why even in the last thread I had to be the one who had to speak about about men not wanting to feel like the smaller one in the relationship? The commentary there was already going in a one sided SJW direction and no one spoke up about it expect me. This and countless other examples is the reason I don't believe most people want to give short males (especially short white males) equality and fairness.

This place certainly isn't as bad as Buzzfeed or Jezebel, but I can't help notice at least a silent agreement of SJW standards.

No, white knighting is an appropriate term to use for men who treat women special and also like children.

Lol.

Pretty much.

It's pretty sad when people can't contain themselves and feel they just have to say something. Most of the time it isn't even constructive and reeks of "someone did it to me so I'm going to do it to someone else".

There's a couple people here like that which bang on like a broken record. It's like watching a group of 13-year-olds trying to be edgy without realising they're needlessly offending people and actually being quite malicious whether they realise it or not.

But no. They're the victim... :rolleyes:

No. I am referring to the fact of how SarahsKnight constantly treats women an upper hand on this site while ignoring men. This isn't something that occured recently. I have been in a group with him for awhile. And it's apparent to me. So if he's going to be honest, then so am I.

And what exactly does respect gain you? It's the right way to act a lot of times, but in a fallen world, it only gets you so far to sit back and be respectful 100% of the time. It gets you walked on, trampled, to use it at inappropriate times. Have you ever noticed how white-knights stay single despite always rushing to women's aid?

Normally I'd agree with you and I've made no bones about that in the past, but in this instance it was on the money.

Well, I'm a guy and SarahsKnight has done a great job in helping me when I was low. It's not exclusively with women.

If your interest is in what any thought or action will gain YOU, then respect will not be a natural character trait. But if you choose to remain self-centered, you pretty much doom yourself to misery.

Seriously what do we call men who treat women like over grown children? Let's not pretend this doesn't exist.

I’m actually more curious about what we call guys who endlessly whine that they don’t get treated like overgrown children. Sorry, MehGuy, no one is going to powder your bum for you.

I'm starting to see this turning into a fight so can we just agree to disagree and try to get along? I really don't want to see a whole bunch of people being banned/leaving because of silly disagreements. There's already too much hate in the world without all of us adding to it.

Well for women, they're typically called feminists.. lol.

Powder my bum? What do you even mean by that lol? Just find it funny that you don't think "white knight" is a justifiable term to use..

Just find it funny that others are putting me down for thinking this place is toxic because of SJW mindsets, yet then people start mocking the term "white knight".

I don’t blame folks for having had enough though. For those who try to make this a healthy and enjoyable community for everyone else, there comes a point where the people who are working against that are going to start hearing about it.

This isn’t about women. It’s about you and your constant whining.

Maybe if people were consistent and go after the feminists too, men wouldn't feel the need to go beyond gender roles.. lol.
