  • 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.

“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...

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.

Funny, I'd say the same thing.. but probably not for the group of people you're thinking of.

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.
