"But instead you're ridiculing anyone who recognize themselves in "fighting to reduce the differences between men and women""

i ridiculed no one, you make it sound like a crime to be amused at things

Implying that people flip-flop when it's convenient for them, a.k.a. being hypocrites, and laughing at them, is not ridiculing?
I suppose that's an admirable trait that you're laughing at then?
Obviously it's not. You characterized them in a negative manner and made fun of them for it.

You can be amused at things without simultaneously trying to flamebait a group of people.
It would be different if you quote something specific someone said, and call them out for hypocrisy. But a hit-and-run like that aimed to provoke a group, especially considering your history, should be avoided. 

"I'd be more inclined to believe that you don't know what you were doing if it weren't for your very extensive history of getting in trouble for antagonizing others, flaming, trolling, etc."

i've been on this site now for i think 8 years and over that period of time if i remember correctly, i've been banned about 3 times

It's been a lot more than that, but I'm referring to the times you've been moderated specifically for those things. This is not the first time you've tried to stir things up with a specific group in a condescending manner.

And since you brought it up, I've been here for 5 years. Never got banned. And the only time I got a warning was over a topic I made that was too short (which was a misunderstanding anyway).

It's not that hard to stay out of trouble. Unless you're looking for it.

"I can say that you know exactly what you're doing, even if you don't appreciate that."

i don't because there's nothing to discuss if you just make the assertion that you understand what my intent is 

what am i supposed to say to that? stop calling me a liar?

Let's put it this way. A group of people identify with "fighting to reduce the differences between men and women".
Am I supposed to believe that your're not aware that your comment will probably exclusively provoke angry responses or arguments, because they find your comparison unfair?

"And rather than asking me to give you a crash course in the fight for social equality"

i did not i asked you a couple simple questions in order to clarify what your position is and you appear to have refused to do so, which is of course ok, its a free country but don't pretend as if i've asked some unreasonably enormous task of you

to reiterate the questions are:

"what does fighting for gender equal rights mean exactly? are you implying that we have one set of laws for men and another for women?as far as i understand we have one set of laws and we apply those laws to both genders, can you elaborate on what you mean by fighting for gender equal rights?"

And I'm asking you to answer my question pertaining to the very first post in this exchange, where you supposedly referred to some specific posts that you have not yet revealed, before spiraling deeper into this. You even said that you could do it.

I don't know about you, but in my experience it's not a good sign when the first person refuses to explain themselves, but rather asks the other person to explain something else instead.
As in trying to weasel your way out of it by starting another argument.

If it turns out that the people whose comments you were referring to think your comparison was inaccurate, then it may appear as if you never had a point to begin with.

"how it'll devolve given you've gotten in trouble over this very subject before"

i have never been banned for a discussion on this topic before if i remember correctly, because as far as i know my posts have always been helpful and informative with regards to my opinions and pertinent and concise with regards to my questions

i find it alarming that you have a different opinion of me

Your second most recent moderation came as a result of your 'passion' for discussing equal rights for women. In yet another topic that was not specifically about that, after a moderator warned you to stop.

This topic is not about that either.

i suppose you aren't going to address you contradicting yourself?

"my point is that you are identifying them as asexual then claiming that their sexuality has nothing to do with their identity"

"I said "Identity is not the same as sexuality". I did not say it "has nothing to do with it"."

"It can be part of someone's identity. And it may not be for others.
And in the case of some asexual people, sexuality is not a factor."

"especially considering your history"

you keep bringing up my history... as i've said i'm almost certain that in 8 years i have been banned for "flaming","trolling" whatever around 3 times

you don't think this is a ridiculous attempt at poisoning the well?

"And since you brought it up, I've been here for 5 years. Never got banned."

i didn't bring it up, you're the person who is running away from the topic of discussion to talk about my history on this site and mother of god seriously? you need to take me under your wing and teach me to be as good a person as you are

"Let's put it this way. A group of people identify with "fighting to reduce the differences between men and women".
Am I supposed to believe that your're not aware that your comment will probably exclusively provoke angry responses or arguments, because they find your comparison unfair?"

no i expect people who discuss these issues to be mature enough to discuss the ideas at hand reasonably, i mean i think everyone here has that expectation otherwise you wouldn't be a moderator would you?

"And I'm asking you to answer my question pertaining to the very first post in this exchange"

this is not true, we were talking about asexual people and you have now decided to throw that discussion away entirely and derail it into something else

i was speaking more specifically about posters who will decry the gendered issues women face in today's society(which are of course an important issue), but now are implying that to be a woman all that is required is a change of dress

are you seriously telling me that you are not seeing this in this thread?

that person who i argued with before was arguing, for example, that gender has nothing to do with biology... well if that's the case well obviously it has to be primarily about dress... would you call that an unreasonable conclusion?

"Your second most recent moderation came as a result of your 'passion' for discussing equal rights for women"

lol it was because i posted a gif my dude, you're really going to argue that i'm some type of monster because i posted a gif? lol

how many times have i been moderated for whatever you are accusing me of doing?
