Truth! nt sheshe2 May 2014 #2

I was told the very fact I posted the Daily Kos article BainsBane May 2014 #3

Seriously disturbing, flashing-red-neon sign type tells there. redqueen May 2014 #5

Anyone who bloviates that much about "hating men" is the opposite of a feminist. redqueen May 2014 #13

and yet fails to provide a single example of such man-hating when queried BainsBane May 2014 #14

Someone was in this group bloviating about man-hating recently. redqueen May 2014 #17

Good point. theHandpuppet May 2014 #29

that person ought to be ppr'ed, he is seriously fucked up. or playing a fuckin game to giggle with seabeyond May 2014 #21

You need to go back to GD redqueen May 2014 #12

In GD BainsBane May 2014 #15

Actually, I said nothing of the sort ConservativeDemocrat May 2014 #22

Really? You decided to make that case because of a preposition? BainsBane May 2014 #23

I care about facts ConservativeDemocrat May 2014 #25

Concerns about misogyny are not sniping BainsBane May 2014 #26

Ugh! Don't listen to this idiot. smirkymonkey Jul 2014 #90

Teach them well then dude, teach them well ismnotwasm May 2014 #33

If people would just google before they started typing, I wouldn't have to teach ConservativeDemocrat May 2014 #42

There are many people who have learned from online social justice movements. redqueen May 2014 #49

Got any facts to back that up? ConservativeDemocrat May 2014 #55

What would your alternative be? ismnotwasm May 2014 #57

Social Media campaigns, and discussion boards, blog posts etc. are mostly for raising awareness IronLionZion May 2014 #79

A few academics may disagree with your allegation that social media is "comically ineffective" LanternWaste May 2014 #87

I can tell in 2 seconds if the man I'm talking to hates or is afraid of women. Peregrine Took May 2014 #52

How do you deal with the men who are afraid of women? IronLionZion May 2014 #53

Gently ismnotwasm May 2014 #58

What is this 'afraid' of women shit? redqueen May 2014 #64

Fear isn't the same as misogyny ismnotwasm May 2014 #66
