"Men are all pigs"

[LadyForCamus]

Hmmm...I dunno...I feel like you know what I mean.  If your girlfriend says, " I'm not in the mood."  What do you do?

Then I don't do it, duh.

Okay, that's all I was trying to figure out! [emoji14]. There was all this talk about husbands being dominating and wives being submissive; I was just curious how far it went, that's all.

Pooley is sorry and wants to say he loves us!

Okay, and your point is?  
Here is a statistic for child sexual abuse in America :
https://victimsofcrime.org/media/reporti...statistics

1 in 5 girls and 1 in 20 boys is a victim of child sexual abuse;
Self-report studies show that 20% of adult females and 5-10% of adult males recall a childhood sexual assault or sexual abuse incident;
During a one-year period in the U.S., 16% of youth ages 14 to 17 had been sexually victimized;
Over the course of their lifetime, 28% of U.S. youth ages 14 to 17 had been sexually victimized;
Children are most vulnerable to CSA between the ages of 7 and 13.

Here is another statistics :
https://rainn.org/statistics
Every 107 second an American is sexually assaulted.

68% of sexual assaults are not reported to the police.

I can cite numerous more if you'd like.
We're a developing third world country, we have a serious lack of education and underdevelopement in rural areas problem hence these malpractices,  you're a developed first world nation with ten folds more malpractices than us, what can you blame?

I swear...what is wrong with your thinking process?

We are talking about the oppression of women, no? We are talking about treating women like they're less valid or less valuable than men.

Guess what, we don't really have that problem in America. I'm not one of those Americans that insists America is the greatest nation in the world, it's not and I know that. But you also won't see me defending the parts of my culture that are abhorrent. Like the obsessive push of child abuse. I won't say, my culture is amazing we love kids you're just a social justice warrior. I will say, I find overall American culture of abusing children and calling it discipline repulsive and I do not condone or support it, but we aren't all like that.

You, on the other hand, are defending your culture and trying to act like it isn't one that harbors abuse and injustices towards women. How many women are killed in honor killings? How many women are killed in dowry disputes? You know why we don't have that? Because there is no dowry here. You know why there's no dowry? Because we don't raise our daughters or our sons to believe that when a girl grows up she's to be passed from her father to her husband to be owned by him, treasured perhaps but still owned. Rape is a huge issue in India. Do you ever wonder why your culture turns out so many men that view women as less human?

I'm not accusing you personally pool, but stop defending the culture if you don't want people to think badly of you.

I was wondering where Little Lunch was. I missed his sweet posts that always ended with a ":-)" smile.
(also, pool is sorry for being an ass with LL b4)

I no longer think my post count matters so now there are some people I see no reason to respond to when they're never going to change their mind. Unreasonable people cannot be reasoned with. Rarely does anyone change their mind during a debate they change their mind afterwards and usually only when sufficient time has passed that they can convince people it was their own idea to change their mind. I will however respond to unreasonable people on the few occasions where they are being reasonable or entertaining.

P.S. OMFG HOLY SHIT I POSTED THIS IN THE MAFIA THREAD FIRST #worstwrongthreadfuckupever

I hope i didn't affect the game?

I've learned a lot by reading discussions on this forum where one person is unreasonable. Even when I'm answering pool it's not all about him
If he wants to open his mind and reconsider his thinking, awesome. If not, maybe someone else will take something away from the discussion.

[Edwardo Piet]

That's a good point... others can learn, it's not all about trying to convince the moron.

I think I might be the only one who even noticed.
