Making fun of Taylor Swift does not make you misogynistic.

Also, people were obviously taking the piss out of your thread. Tone down your threads and this won't happen again.

Oh please god no. The mods are already oversensitive about controversial issues, quickly branding an innocent joke as homophobia or racism when the context is as innocent as it could be. All these isms need to stop. 90% of the time those words are thrown around they are misdirected.

Misdirected, I think not. Sometimes the comments on this forum are so unbelievable I'm surprised feminist groups didn't try to protest the forums.

I don't have to tone down NOTHING. I know my 1st ammendment rights and I can say whatever I want as long as I'm not hurting anyone. However, people cannot say sexist things, because it isn't right!

Uh, calling a woman a slut or a whore is not sexist at all. Saying their only purpose in life is to grow babies and make me a sandwich is sexist.


No it's not, but the way it's used makes it sexist. Some of the attacks on women on this forum over the years are unbelievable.

Calling a woman a whore is not even close to being sexist. It's just a generic insult. A woman can be a whore and an acomplished scientist.

Well prepare for your ridiculous threads to gather equally ridiculous replies then.

Please tell me you're joking...

These forum is quite sexist which is in large part due to the Basil rule (women are inherently inferior to men, no questions asked).

There is a saying that men insult each other and don't mean it while women compliment each other and don't mean it. Since virtually everyone assumes that there are no women here, we talk like there are no women here. This in turn creates an environment that is not inviting to women, so it's a cycle that keeps feeding itself.

Keep that in mind when you read these forums, not everything that is said about females is meant in a serious way. More often than not it's a joke. Although some people definitely have a bad grasp of where the line between funny and tasteless is.


I understand what you mean, but have you ever heard the saying "If a tree falls and no one is around does it make a sound?" Just because there aren't as many women on these forums as men doesn't mean the comments are justful. I do see what you mean, but it just doesn't make it right.

This is exactly what I mean... Please take your sarcasm elsewhere. But the second I post such and such is a better musical artist than such and such, it gets attacked. It's a very horrible double standard on this website.

how about no?

if you can't handle the site i would suggest taking your extreme feminism else where, just because somebody called another women a whore does not mean he is sexist, the only one being prejudice and judgmental here is you.

So you're telling me it's okay to attack people and harass people because you don't agree with their opinions. That's like psycho status.. Totally unfair and unjust.

I'm being 100% serious, which is why I'm addressing my inner feelings.

This was addressed already. It has nothing to do with a woman being called a whore. The comments like "LOLSHESAWHORESHECANTBEASINGERNOTALENT" is just dismissing her as a musical vagina and therefore she can't be talented, and then these posters go on and say "MEN DON'T IDOLIZE FEMALES" that's a sexist comment.
