You must not be from Movie/TV Land. I swear someone passed a law a few years back saying that, when a man and woman are in a car, the woman has to drive.

Google says the middle of the cherry can get to 900 C as it's being dragged. ~400 when resting, like this one is when it's (not) grabbed. Also, it's not as much about how hot it is as it is about how much heat it can transfer rapidly transfer. You're a dickhead. Source: everybody around you, probably.

Mom beat the shit out of me as a kid and then ran off one night when I was ten. I remember my dad sitting on the edge of my bed the next morning and telling me that mommy wasn't coming home. I didn't give a shit - I was more excited about getting to stay home from school that day. Fuck her and fuck anyone that thinks that all moms are blameless, holy creatures.

He has a kind of acerbic attitude which rubs people the wrong way. But the real reason is because he's an avowed Christian. It doesn't really come across in his music (Science of Myth is the only song I can think of that directly addresses it), but lots of punks hate that.

That's not what entrapment means. It would be entrapment if an officer presented him with a 14 year old and said, "I am a police officer. The law has changed so that it's now legal to fuck 14 year olds. Here's a copy of the new law. So, wanna have a go?"

So it's a problem that women aren't portrayed as blameless, holy creatures of purest light. Got it. If anything, this is a far more interesting scenario as it more realistically depicts how a gynocratic society could develop. Just like every other society, there's no reason to expect the Amazons to have been able to develop an enlightened society without a period of harshly established dominance.

I'm not sure slippery slope means what you think it means. If you're referring to my second sentence, it's not a slippery slope fallacy as I'm not using it to support my argument.

There were plenty of other ways, and it would seem that she availed herself of none of them. Look, you and I actually agree and it's only an issue for me because she's held up to be this feminist icon. I only find it all the more amusing as I believe it's emblematic of the "RA! RA! Aren't women great" brand of feminism that relies almost entirely on strong images rather than actual strength that has been so popular of late.

Sure, but I'm suggesting the MR movement deserves better. We shouldn't need poorly rendered rip-offs to convince others that we're not an 90s sitcom. We don't have to beg agency from others and whine when it's not granted. We're men and we do for ourselves and others and, often, not in that order. I don't need a poster to tell me that and I don't believe a poster is going to convince anyone that doesn't already acknowledge that. But, honestly, it's about those really crappy lips.

I think the pedo accusation comes from another source reporting that she referred to students as jailbait. This is the alleged tweet: "Just got called Ms. McCutie.

Fair enough. Just understand that yours is a feminized view. Men have almost always understood that violence has a place in society. If, for example, a man persists in making rude comments about another man's wife after being asked to stop, I fully support the latter man's right (if not duty) to knock the shit out of the former. Primitive? Perhaps. But that doesn't mean obsolete. It's the pantywaist bullshit of the past forty years that tells us otherwise.

Actually, they did in some ways and didn't in others. I do know that men, back then, weren't mocked and shamed the way they are now. Ever think that you've been feminized to such an insidious degree that you can't even recognize that ideals aren't necessarily a bad thing?

Your reading comprehension sucks. By "otherwise physically assaulted", I was referring to videos (that often result in satisfaction) wherein somebody antagonizes someone into kicking, pushing, tripping, or shoving, or dangit, OTHERWISE PHYSICALLY ASSAULTING someone that is being antagonistic.

I have to admit that I am absolutely amazed that you were able to glean "strength is the end all and be all of human interaction" from anything anyone said.

You're using a bunch of words that I'm not entirely convinced you know the meanings of. Are you really claiming that the general strength advantage men have over women is a gender construct? You'd be wrong if you are. Whereas objectification certainly plays a role in rape, I'm not sure how you could possibly believe it to be germane to your argument. Chauvanism is the perception of male superiority. Sorry, but men really are (on the whole) stronger than women.

If the subject of rape were never brought up, would you really see no truth to the illustration I presented above?

Blame is a loaded word, but does apply in this scenario. Again, the soldier has the choice of wearing or not wearing the uniform. I am pretty sure that is why you're asked several times if you understand exactly what you're doing before you take the oath of enlistment in the US Army. Answering yes to those questions is the bearing of responsibility for your decision of joining the Army and, potentially, getting shot. You, and no one else, put yourself in that position. An officer may order you t…

You're right; that was an overly aggressive generalization. Of course not all women flit through life unable to acknowledge vulnerability or unwilling to take responsibility for their safety. I think my primary objection is toward what I perceive to be a feminist-driven social attitude that tells women that they ought not have to acknowledge vulnerability take responsibility for their safety. I believe this to be egregiously naive and does everyone a disservice. Going back to my original post, I…

Gawd you're incapable of rational thought. It is not unimaginably heinous. Its heineity is quite imaginable and not the sole province of those that think the way you do. Quit fetishizing the act. It hampers your ability to deal with the problem.

At some point the soldier (absent a draft) or police officer had the option to not put on the uniform and not take on the heightened risk of being shot that comes with those clothes. That means the responsibility is, in part, on them. Hell, even with a draft, the soldier has the option to dodge said draft. The point is that, at the end of the day, we bear responsibility for pretty much everything that happens to us.

Except that clothing isn't the only way in which women make themselves vulnerable. In fact, I suspect it is a factor in very few rapes. To me, it has more to do with threat assessment and knowing how to handle oneself in a hostile environment. Or, more importantly, avoiding such an environment altogether. Women need to get over this notion that they can do whatever they want, whenever they want, without fear of repercussion. In a perfect world, we could all wander through life without having to …

They are both crimes in which something is taken without permission. I know that rape has attained an unholy connotation, but let's try to address the issue rationally, shall we? What you're saying more akin to saying that beating up your child is like beating someone up in a bar fight, because they are both physical attacks on a person that can be avoided by leaving a situation... or something of that nature. Except that children are almost powerless to avoid an abusive situation. Women, genera…

Perhaps not literally cash hanging out of one's pockets, but there is certainly a gender hegemony that says that, in order to be attractive, a man ought be successful and wear symbols of that success. Expensive watch, nice shoes, nice clothes, strong appearance, etc - all of these confer an air of potency and, hence, attractiveness. Of course, these symbols aren't likely to get one mugged, but I would suggest that they might increase one's likelihood to be mugged. In either case, these social fo…

If it weren't for dickheads like you, there'd be no thievery in this world. EDIT: Downvoting a Full Metal Jacket quote? For shame.

While they are not analogous in severity, they are analogous in that they are both crimes against one's person and can often (but not always) be avoided by taking responsibility for one's own safety. Sorry for cooking your sacred cow. That was pretty smug.

"Do soldiers and police bear partial responsibility for getting shot?" -Yes. Both of them assumed that risk by putting on the uniform. "If I get shot walking through a neighborhood due to a racially motivated crime am I at fault for being a certain race in a certain part of town?" -Yes - if you are aware of the danger of being the wrong race in a certain part of town. "The person who pulls the trigger is guilty." - Agreed. And they should be tried and convicted. But there is rarely any such thin…

I usually put it this way: I decide to take a stroll through a rough part of town with $100 bills hanging out of my pocket. Do I have every right to do so in safety? Of course I do. If I get the crap beaten out of me and my money taken, am I partially to blame? Yes, yes I am. Should those that robbed me be punished? Yep, they should. Should I be called an idiot for walking through a rough part of town with cash falling out of my pockets? Yes; because I am, in fact, an idiot.

I remember seeing something similar to this several years ago. It was a Black couple and the wife had hired a "hitman" to kill her husband. The cops staged some crime scene photos to show her and she, predictably, starts wailing for her poor husband. The best part is, he walks into the interrogation room during this wailing. The video was priceless. Wish I could find it again.

I am a guy. I do believe myself to be reasonably observant, though and have never seen other guys doing it out in public or anywhere. I'm sure I would be more sensitive to it were I a woman.

I gotta say that in my 34 years on this planet, I have never heard some dude catcall a woman on the street. I've spent all of my life in the South. Is this something that goes on elsewhere? Have I just missed it here?

My law professor uncle tells a story about a student of his that was busted for indecent exposure for pissing in public one one night. The police officer that found him testified that he shined his flashlight on the student and could clearly see that he was urinating and that his junk was out for all to see. The student's attorney said, "Flashlight? If you needed a flashlight, then my client could not be said to have been exposed." The student was found not guilty. Oh, and police in New Orleans …

Though I don't share your sentiment, I suppose I can see where you're coming from. I guess if I were to look at money I spend on my daughter as a capital outlay, I'd see the love she gives me and the happiness that (I hope) I am giving her as an excellent ROI. I would just implore you to do one thing: Don't never, ever, ever, ever, not once, ever let on to your daughter how you feel. She hasn't got a fucking thing in this world but the love of you and her mother. She needs it and doesn't need to…

Heh. Next weekend, a film festival I'm putting together is screening a documentary about this very subject called Made In India . Interesting stuff.
