Looks like men are less educated than women in Australia.

You don't care for who suffers most, only who complains loudest.
Once again, I am not talking only about Australia. Globally, there is a literacy gap with many girls and women never being taught to read because women's education isn't valued. That's not protection and care. It's exploitation.

Women are just as valueable as men, we all have a mother.

I go with rhe Rebbes advice to a young mother who wanted to get a job as a typist,
in an attempt to make ends meet.





He told her if she needed to seek work so the families economy would be eased

by all means, do it, "But do not call yourself a typist, you are first and foremost, a mother."
Now why doesn't that work for the father who wanted to get work as a typist?

Women have value beyond being a mother. Why is it that being a mother should be her primary identity but a father can identify primarily as he pleases? As a doctor, lawyer, mechanic, electrician before ever mentioning he is a father?

The sooner Christians realize they are the subjects of a new secular order and not the partners with said secular order, the better.

The sooner western Christians realize they're idolatrous love of human power, i.e the force of government, is a mistake, the better. :)

Equality. Don't bother wasting your breathe talking about how we're equals if you cannot do a man's work. Just like how women didn't build that church if yours.

What is wrong with you? Are you okay? Do you need a hug, big guy? I know women who can work rings around most soft dudes who spend all day on the interwebs.

I was a lineman, which is about as "manly" a vocation as one could want. I know there are women who get out there and hook poles, son. They can endure the heat, the sweat, the stress, whatever. If they can do it, all the respect.

You know, it would be one thing if you were some fundamentalist complementarian but still believed woman had some sort of dignity, but your comments are degrading. If you want to convince people that feminism is off, stop talking.

Awww....only if you're offering.

Here to play white knight? You're just making my point for me.

A white knight rides in to save the day. Can't let the women fight their own battles....even the verbal ones.

Thanks for proving me right.

That's not an ad hominem lol it's a description of what you did.



  • defending a woman in an argument, cutting off her own defence of herself

I dub thee Sir Blanco Macho

Edit- if my argument is that the entirety of feminism relies upon the will of men to defend and enforce it, literally the worst thing you can do is come riding in like a white knight...you're just making my point for me.

To hear you tell it, sure. What I see is a man (?) who is afraid he isn't better than somebody else. Your sense of self depends on an idea, a conception of what you would like to be- a man. And, you're afraid because without that image you don't know what you are. Of course, you don't even come close to the image or you wouldn't care. But, you do, which iis a sign of weakness, very unmanly. You could be strong in your own self, but you're not. Instead, someone must be less than you. It's very sad. Hugs?

I'll let you know when I care about your opinion of me.


Edit- I had also considered Sir Misses the Point and Sir Foot in Mouth.

Let me know when you up for more discussion, cowboy. You seem so manly.

What discussion? You came in to protect the maiden feminism from an argument she's struggling with....and in doing so, made my point for me.

It wouldn't matter to me if you imagined me the most worthless creature to ever crawl the earth. You're no one to me. Just a name on a screen. I swear, I thought you'd left the forum...

Because it wasn't until I saw you posting again that your absence was even noticed. What happened guy? Got hit with the ban hammer? Short coma? Took a break? Or simply lurked in other corners?

Make an argument....or lob insults if it makes you feel chivalrous. I promise...it won't change my opinion of you.

I don't have one. You don't matter to me.

You want some cheese with that whine? It's not about either one of us. It's about seeing things as they are. You say women can't do men's work. That's just stupid. I know different. It ain't a secret. You want to be treated with respect? Don't be ignorant.

At what point have I not represented things as they are?

Are you appealing to me to argue your misogynistic case? That's odd. I think this line of discussion has run out of steam, honestly.

No....I'm asking you to back up your claim.

"It's about seeing things as they are"

Dude, I'm not going to argue with you. That would only give your illusion of superiority a veneer of validity. I can only ridicule your ignorance and expose the ludicrous nature of your supposed superiority. It would be dishonest of me to act is if we needed to reason together.
