Did you actually read the article I just linked above? You're holding a stereotypical, largely unfounded, and insulting view of women. I suppose I can't argue with your experience, I don't know what you've gone through exactly, but I think that it's a pretty stereotypical view that's heavily reinforced by our society. I had my ipod stolen by a black guy off my lap in high school, that doesn't give me the right to hold on to racist views.

Fair concern. Why? I can understand that it's not targeted at him, but why would watching a show make someone become lustful to the target audience?

I haven't bothered to take notes outside of class in years and that never really hurt me much.

Yes, yes I have, and they have made legal advances in changing the legal system in Europe to reflect new equal views. Here's an article about it. Thus far on this thread, unless I'm mistaken, I haven't heard from someone who's actually gone through a divorce. Where are you getting your information about what happens in a divorce? The media? Popular culture? Of all of the divorces I've know about in my life, including my own parents', I have only known one ruling to be massively one sided towards the wife, and that was because she was a lawyer herself not because she was handed a large amount. EDIT: I don't even know why we're arguing about this, we both agree that it's a stupid precedent in the legal system...

And what I'm saying is that there are more direct consequences in addition to reinforcing gender roles, including their perceived competency and their self-esteem, both of which do carry more tangible harms. They're also likely to be aware of these harms, since as we've discussed women are thought of as weaker, and so they are offered patronizing help more often. And they seem to be fine with that, generally. That's a pretty large generalization to make with nothing to back it up.

I was just about to ask... Also, you don't need to make all of the punctuation marks bigger, just at least one per line if at least one appears that line. Basically what it does it makes the spacing a little bigger.

Not in the slightest. I mean I suppose d legs/skirt are pretty cheap so you could probably justify those but the tops aren't, either way buy a zerker ring first.

Keep the rune armor until you can wear/afford barrows, get dragon boots and a d scrim and work on skilling for the explorer's ring 3 or buy a zerker ring.

From my earlier source. They might not actually want to accept an extremely patronizing offer since it may make them feel worse about themselves. But no, of course, all women just will take whatever they can steal from their husbands just out of spite. [/sarcasm] I know I might sound a little harsh, but whether you intended it or not here's what you're argument is kinda sexist. My source claims that accepting unsolicited or patronizing help makes the individual worse off and feel worse about themselves. But you're saying that even though they'll feel worse they will still take the money, or avoid the punishment in the case of the OT. Why would they do something that will just make them feel worse? Obviously, to make the men other feel bad out of pure malice.

Basically it's writing down notes from a chapter in a very specific format, so instead of doing it the way that comes naturally to you everyone does it the exact same tedious way (Also allows the teacher to grade your out-of-classroom notes, which shouldn't be mandatory imo).

10 hours to do all the work. The work is: go through and take meticulous notes about everything. Not too bad, but the notes have to formatted really stupidly, and you need a page number after every bullet, every subsection, every header (even though they're all on the same page). Then you have to do the chapter review, as well as the review in between sections. Then take Cornell notes on a powerpoint of the chapter, AFTER we just took regular notes on the exact same [bleep]ing chapter. Then write a reflection about what you learned. I just hate this, because the test is supposed to already show what I learned. Rinse and repeat for 12 chapters. All I'm "learning" from this book is literally 'eat right, exercise, condom' And that's why I took advanced classes, more word but faaaaar less tedious (Never had to do Cornell notes ftw). Good luck though, it'll make the summer all the sweeter when it's all over.

Is that 10 hours to actually do all the work or 10 hours to study? Because if it's that easy you should just do the homework without studying and google anything you're not sure about on another comp.

I'll just put this here. Besides dude, they were in middle school... Somehow if you are getting a divorce and you have a bias in favor of you when it comes to getting husbands income/child custody I dont think you will be complaining about a bias being "degrading." Yes you can, and you should. This kind of behavior creates a double bind situation for women where they are either warm-but-incompetent or cold-but-independent. This [cabbage] has consequences.

When talking about American news organizations and their biases, you'd typically use an American scale. I could take a Chinese view and call you all a bunch of right-wingers, but that doesn't help the discussion. Either way, taking other American media organizations like The Daily Show or the Huffington Post as fairly left-wing you cannot call Fox liberal with a straight face. EDIT: And you know what, another reporter from the US News and World Report wrote a report about another book written by professors about the conservative bias in much of the mainstream media. In short reporters were sick of being accused of having a liberal bias so they consistently give /gave more leeway to conservative politicians.

How will that work? You can just use sites under other countries jurisdictions. Or mirrors. Exactly, the legislation would have little effect on those who'd actually be able to hack them and only inconvenience those who aren't as technologically capable.

^I really hope it comes through, I'd hate for it to just be half completed and then abandoned or victimized by a lawsuit. Also, forever relevant.

"the grown men who enjoy it are just weird creepy people who like to watch shows for little girls and pretend they like it for the plot and characters." You honestly say that and don't expect some people to take it a bit personally? An opinion is that you don't like the show and you find the thread irritating to read, which I can accept and don't mind you saying. When you assert that the entire male periphery audience is made up of creepy self-denying liars then you're just being hateful.

http://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/washington-whispers/2011/06/16/book-liberal-media-distorts-news-bias You know who's centrist? Barack Obama. You know what party is center-right at the moment? The Democratic Party. ABC, CBS, CNN, and NBC are so far from extreme left it's ridiculous. You want an example of a far-leftist media entity? STFU-Conservatives would be a taste. And no, a news station that endorses people that say: is not liberal.

Since you've all taken your passive aggressive trolling from the MLP thread to here, I have a question: How does this impact any of you? Most everything pony related things except avatars or signatures stay on the thread, that you aren't required to visit, unless haters bring it up elsewhere. So you don't like something, fine, why are you demonizing people who do? Are you afraid we'll force you to enjoy girly things or something?

What the [bleep]. [bleep] these [bleep]-ing [bleep]s. You've got to be kidding me... Someone find me a passage in the Bible that says sticking things random things up your ass is sinful. Seriously, what he did being "sodomy" (And I disagree with that interpretation of those particular passages, for the record) is nowhere in the story of Sodom at all; it's not even deviant sexual intercourse legally, it'd have to be a "foreign object manipulated by another person" and he did it all by himself.

To me calling something like this domestic terrorism is just the government putting a spin in current events. How does this inspire fear in the populous? The only way I'd see it doing that is showing how vulnerable some of our cyber systems are, which they already were to begin with, and now the government might actually improve the security/personnel from all the negative press.

Doing the opposite has never helped. And treating them like that is more gratifying. So you'd only ever treat people nicely as a facade? Perhaps they just saw through your nice behavior if you weren't actually empathizing with them. I am genuinely sorry you're in such a bad place right now, and I hope your situation improves, but caring for someone and acting like you do are very different things.

There's a lot of threads on tumblr going on about how everyone thinks the guys from jackass are invincible and this was a huge shock for them. Personally I never saw them as invincible beings, and I think that's why I never much got into the shows or movies. The audience forget that these are real people and actions do have consequences, while tragic and sad this is the logical extension of his life choices.

I think the sum of all your actions are the guiding line here. Perhaps each good action is worth one point (perhaps more depending on what it is and why you do it), and a bad action is -1 - ∞ (whatever the worst action is worth) So 90% of the time I am good, so +1 at a time for each good action, and then I kill someone. I think that particular action puts me in the negative. However lets say I have a lot of money, and I take most of that money and help kids in Africa and through my efforts I save 1000's of lives. But then I get charged with a felony for embezzlement, or perhaps cheat on my wife/gf, etc., I would say that despite the lie I would be a good person. The problem is that the scale in question varies from person to person, culture to culture, and circumstance to circumstance; that's why I said I don't really believe in a morality system full heartedly, people are good at justifying their actions to show that they were really acting in the common good based on some system of moral units.
