I’ll wait

Men are the kings of violence.

Women are the queens of violence by proxy.

erikwidi · 2018-07-26T19:34:40+00:00

Didn't have to wait long, did ya?

Rabb1tH3ad · 2018-07-27T03:04:47+00:00

I'm so sick of current trends in internet language, on a side note. "I'll wait" and anything about dropping a mic specifically are both so pompous and arrogant that it's really a gross attitude to witness.

xenemorph · 2018-07-26T18:59:14+00:00

It would be interesting to see violence/war/bad decisions appropriately represented in a percentage rather than quantity. Like, did 30% of women leaders lose a war versus 45% of men?

BassBeerNBabes · 2018-07-26T21:31:54+00:00

Nefartiti, Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, Anne Bonny, Ching Shih.

Mmmmhmm.

problematikUAV · 2018-07-26T19:55:58+00:00

Don’t forget Golda Meir, she was a bad bitch

_LadyBoy · 2018-07-26T20:18:52+00:00

Queen Marry of Scots (also known as Bloody Mary)

Edit: Sorry, Mary I of England, not Queen of Scots.

Cthula-Hoops · 2018-07-26T19:57:52+00:00

Sounds like a British problem to me. lol

Just go watch sons of anarchy. That fucking Gemma Teller caused everyone grief. If she had died in season one, show is over, everyone lives happily ever after.

Jiandao79 · 2018-07-26T19:15:34+00:00

Queen Elizabeth II

Quailpower · 2018-07-26T21:17:50+00:00

With a little research you could probably fill a thesis on women who declared war.

Boudica,
Onomaris,
Cartimandua,
Elen Llwyddog,
Matilda (technically not a queen but gave a damn good run for her money),
Maria Theresa of Austria,
Isabella of Castile,
Artimesa (who fought alongside Xerxes),
Zenobia,
Cleopatra,
Cleopatra Thea,
Theodora, Hatchepsut,
Meryt Neith,
Amina of Nigeria,
the numerous Xhosa cheiftess',
and the last ruler of Hawaii who's name I can never spell....

Skyphe · 2018-07-26T20:36:19+00:00

Did she have a response?

Skeith_Hikaru · 2018-07-26T23:40:45+00:00

Statistically woman have started more and bloodier wars.

ChurchOfAbortionism · 2018-07-27T00:36:44+00:00

Didn't have to wait long. Could've saved some embarrassment by looking it up before speaking about it so confidently.

2018-07-26T23:26:18+00:00

Also Isabel I of Spain, and Isabel II.

There are also women that have destroyed their countries from within, like Angela Merkel, but that's a different conversation.

battlerythym · 2018-07-26T23:44:58+00:00

Joan of arc

SVMESSEFVIFVTVRVS · 2018-07-26T19:39:06+00:00

Feminists seem uninterested in facts.

Didn't need to wait long

I don't care about the topic, but I LOVE anytime one of these "i'll wait" posters gets an answer in the form of a list.

memory_of_a_high · 2018-07-27T05:10:12+00:00

These blanket statements "All ??? was started by...". Are propaganda and they work really well. You would be amazed.

Cheveyo · 2018-07-27T03:13:11+00:00

Why do you set your reddit to look like the pornhub comments?

Orange is bad upvote please.

johnchapel · 2018-07-27T13:55:26+00:00

Im so fucking tired of young people gravitating towards progressivism when its entire core existence is based entirely around either denying reality, or ignoring it enough to not realize it.

Margaret Thatcher's declaration of War was due to Argentina seizing English lands and declaring them property of Argentina, thus breaking several International Treaties.

Kind of makes her declaration reasonable.

BurgerUSA · 2018-07-27T02:27:44+00:00

Women destroy societies. Prove me wrong. protip: You can't.

CharitableMiser · 2018-07-27T03:07:38+00:00

Angela Merkel's open border policies have basically decimated Europe.

2018-07-26T19:14:09+00:00

Women were more likely to declare war.

FissureKing · 2018-07-26T20:29:18+00:00

I mean the guy could just make the overall point that women are less violent and commit less violent crimes which in the whole is accurate

(Although the packs of teens are giving those stats a run for their money lately)

master_gecko · 2018-07-26T20:27:23+00:00

I take it she didn’t have to wait long

Let's also remember that lady who lead the vast syndicate of pirates during the she of sail.

Ching Shih

Pretty disingenuous to praise her for such ambition, but forget her when it's time to recall women in history who had ruled through violence.

EDIT: Holy crap, how could we have forgotten!! Joan of Arc!!

AlcoholicSmurf · 2018-07-27T12:15:49+00:00

Some argue that all men only go to war because of women. Women that they wanted or for something a woman wanted. Now of course that being the case every time is stupid but in less developed times, a sizeable amount probably was over this.

anotherthrowawayhi · 2018-07-27T13:22:10+00:00

Hope she didn't hold her breath lol

TheJoestarDescendant · 2018-07-27T13:59:19+00:00

Also Aisha; you know, the prophet's child bride. Went to war with "Commander of the faithful"
