Bless me Father for I have sinned

It's been I haven't a clue how many years since my last confession but here we go

Yes, I have been baiting people over at km.adamsspace.com again.  It starts out innocent, trying to get a logical answer to one of her posts.  Then the mudslinging and the slurs start and I can't seem to help myself.  I get right in there with them.  Stupid, ignorant - no bad, cathy, bad

I did stop commenting today as the lunatic fringe came out to play, why encourage him or her.  I had made a comment about bride burning in India.  In reply LF said it's only women against women - it's not - as if that were perfectly acceptable.  He/she then said that if it was their blog they would have banned me right away so I input the wikipedia definition of "freedom of speech".  He/she also mentioned that I made sexist remarks while he/she referred to women as mentally ill and the other posters refer to feminists as moral lepers, spiritually depraved and the like.  So I posted "pot, kettle mean anything to you?"

Yes I know it's wrong but I can't promise not to do it again because it's just so fun to watch them foam at the mouth, calling anything I say unfounded and without logic while expecting me to accept their words as gospel.  As I've said before since dealing with cancer my tolerance for stupidity is just not what it used to be.

For my penance I promise not to visit that website for at least a week.

ps - if Eliza were up to it I'd send her there in a second.  She'd have them so wrapped up in words about what being a real feminist is they'd never know what hit them.  Or maybe Jen, or Snickollet, or Nate

 or Pundit Mom.  or, or, or,

Per winecat: To Kelly Mac,

you are apparently having a problem grasping the concept. Given that the majority of the Legislature is male who is getting them to pass laws that are supposedly bad for them and their fellow men? Is it the few hundred mental ill feminists that anonymous 66 thinks run the country?

Who are these mentally ill women and just what positions of power do they hold?

I see the laws as treating people equally. If you don’t that’s your problem. That’s how the world should operate. Please quiet putting words in my mouth it’s rude and condesending.

from Wikipedia

The Violence Against Women Act’s programs range from policies to encourage the prosecution of abusers, to victim’s services to prevention programs. VAWA helped forge new alliances between police officers, courts, and victim advocates.

No where do I see this law as creating special circumstances for women. They refer to abusers, period, no gender attached.

What are you talking about “few hundred mentally ill feminists”??? Our entire society has been feminist since the sixties!

Try to follow this, winecat: From the time they are born, children get the same kinds of messages.

Men are stupid buffoons (look at nearly any movie on the market today, television commercials, sitcoms, TV dramas, billboard advertising, etc.).

Men are all rapists (look at the way girls are told “men only want one thing”, 6-year old boys having “sex offender” put on their permanent records because they kissed a 6-year old girl or flipped her dress up, teaching kids about date rape and marital rape and statutory rape – who is the rapist in these scenarios?).

All domestic violence is perpetrated by men (the famous Super Bowl Sunday hoax, movies like “Enough” and “The Burning Bed”, when a gender is used in DV laws, it is always “he” doing the abuse and “she” on the receiving end, when a woman hits her man with a frying pan or shoots him in the back, we automatically assume he must have done something to deserve it – she is always portrayed as a victim).

White men have all the advantages in business (the ad nauseum perpetuation of the wage gap myth, Affirmative Action and the lawsuits filed using the implied discrimination, the proverbial “old boys network”, the fact that there are more men in positions of power than women).
Child molesters are all men (the “48-hours” type investigations, movies, “stranger danger” portrayals, not allowing children flying alone to sit next to a man, men being reported to the police by strangers for holding hands with their own children).

You get told often enough that you’re a monster by parents, teachers, friends, relatives, the media, and you start to believe it. You get told often enough that you’re oppressed and victimized, you start to believe it.

Talk to any feminist man – he’ll feel bad for being male. Is it any wonder at all that in the process of apologizing for “thousands of years of male oppression”, and trying to make it all better, that they pass laws and enforce them to women’s advantage?

Not only that, but there’s a simple little concept called the “Power of Pussy”. See if you can find an entry on THAT in the Wikipedia.

As for the Violence Against Women Act, why in the world do you think it would be named that if it were really the Violence Against Humans Act?

You see the laws as treating people equally. Some may be written that way, but they are by no stretch of the imagination enforced that way. Girl, use the intelligence you were born with, open your eyes, and figure it out.

As for sending your fellow brainwashed sisters over, bring it.

Kelly Mac, once again you've made history, Putting words in peoples mouths and making gross generalizations. Where on earth do you get these warped ideas that all men are considered evil?

I'm just not going there with you anymore. You can't change and I refuse to believe the world is the ugly place you proclaim it to be.

Ooooo...this is going on my "things to do next time I have rage issues" list...I'm not up to foaming at the mouth at the moment, true, but they'll still be assholes when I feel better I'm sure.
