There are those of us who are proud as hell of being a bitch. Count me as one. I can & will TAKE patrice Jan 2013 #30
If you consider yourself a bitch, that's your business. Did you see the examples in post 7? redqueen Jan 2013 #33
I'm saying people CAN take such posters down themselves. & I approve of all of that being out in patrice Jan 2013 #37
Being taken down is precisely when they use such language BainsBane Jan 2013 #54
That's why I don't think most of it should go to jury. What happens should be seen. Embarass bad patrice Jan 2013 #57
You haven't responded to anything I've said BainsBane Jan 2013 #66
You insulted me. & You said that the fact that you work for a university makes you better than I. patrice Jan 2013 #68

You know, because people have different ways of going about things that doesn't mean patrice Jan 2013 #47
Those examples are clear. redqueen Jan 2013 #48
I wonder if you could be more specific: "in-group use"? "taking it back"? I'm not sure what you are patrice Jan 2013 #50
Is there one and only one intolerance of misogyny? Does that intolerance have only certain patrice Jan 2013 #51
You've gone beyond that BainsBane Jan 2013 #56
I never told you not to be bothered about it. I said it is not good for the whole issue to HIDE it & patrice Jan 2013 #60
Again, you have ignored everything I have said BainsBane Jan 2013 #69
BTW, #47 was about what you called "tolerance for misogyny", not about racism. I think racism is so patrice Jan 2013 #49
There is nothing "natural" about racism and sexism BainsBane Jan 2013 #63
Yes! +1 n/t Helen Reddy Jan 2013 #85
