How to gain and lose a friend in 2 weeks.

RE: How to gain and lose a friend in 2 weeks.
I have no respect for anyone who resorts to violence in response to words.
What falls away is always, and is near.

Also, I am not pretending to be female, this profile picture is my wonderful girlfriend. XD

Et tu Aegrus?

I could've sworn that the rhetoric aspect of what I was saying was a bit more obvious. Do I actually have to make it a bit more obvious??

Sailed right over my head. Pound it in with a chisel?

Eh, re-reading it, I think I put a little too much effort into trying to make it sound convincing.

Ok, the gist of the post is actually this, cut down quite a bit:

Women should not try to be EXACTLY the same as men, because physiology just doesn't really work very well on average. There are SOME women who can beat the shit out of a guy but for the sake of averages, your average man is much stronger than your average woman. There are a lot of women, ALL of them feminazis [something I didn't mention before, a very glaring failure on my part], who prefer to bitch and moan about equality rather than do something that actually works. They either whine, or they beat their heads against the wall a la trying to be exactly the same as men. One of the saddest things I ever saw was a girl who was 5'7" and weighed maybe 150 lbs. who was trying to haul a stack of pallets [those things are fucking heavy] around and she refused help because she thought it would make her look weak. Problem was...this was the job she was hired to do, and she could barely do it. She was basically supposed to shift the pallets, unload the boxes from the trucks, and bring the boxes into the store. She ended up throwing her back out about a week in and was sent to the hospital.

Women, however, can use guile and beauty to manipulate men. It's not a bad thing, as long as it's not done with malicious intent. They, on average, lack the brawn, so...why not the use the brains and/or beauty to compensate? It works both ways, obviously, but the effect is far more stronger when it's used against men by women.

And there are a lot of women, just in general, that want respect but again they just want to bitch. And I wasn't being rhetorical here: If you have a problem with someone, then squash the fucking problem, don't bitch to me for two hours at a time about it until I'm ready to leap through a window 50 stories up just to escape it. Truth be told, that goes for ANY gender but any woman looking to get respect from men, well, there's a good way to do it; don't play the catty gossip game; tell the bitch talking smack to shut the fuck up. Take care of the problem, be assertive. I dunno about the rest of you but I love a woman who can be genuinely assertive. Now am I ACTUALLY condoning the violence? Pfft, no. I may enjoy to watch a catfight as much as the next horndog but really it wouldn't raise my respect any. Might actually drop it.

Hopefully that covers the bases.

XD Not only did you take what I said to the extremes of literal, you also have said something that you've mentioned in like six different threads that I can recall off the top of my head.

I repeat all sorts of gibberish Smile

* Violet doesn't think she missed the point... she thinks that she was simply more creative with it than you. Heart

Quote:I'm probably going to lose respect for saying this because if you don't know me you'll read it in the voice of someone who is trying to crush someone under his boot while saying it [try amused exasperation instead, that's far more accurate] but I am not one known for holding back on what I have to say:

Then I'll read it in Morgan Freeman's voice, and make it simply epic Tiger

Quote:You're pre-op, you talk about it all the time. I'm a guy; I think this might be like the first time I've actually pointed that out in any real context. We get it. You're a woman in a guy's body, and you're getting a sex change; I get it, you don't need to bring it up in every. single. thread, alright? Don't get me wrong, I like your personality, you're delightfully cheerful and have a wonderful sense of humor, and whatever you want to do with your body is not going to affect me one way or another...unless you weaponize it in which case I will be the first to ask for specs so I can do the exact same thing.

Oh, knowing me: the moment I have my vagina I won't be shutting up about it for 3 years. Probably more. Actually, I might never shut up about how wonderful it is to have an enchanted vagina.

I simply find the humor in my being pre-op. It so happens that it was relevant in this thread (you telling me that most women can't get laid without work, me countering that with something that should be a *major* aside beneath your reasoning).

Also: it isn't a sex change. There is currently no way to change someone's Y chromosome into an X chromosome. It also is not a gender change, for gender was already there. It is cosmetic surgery.

Quote:I don't care that you're getting a sex change. You could tell me once you're pre-op, soon to be post-op, and leave it at that, and my perception of you would not change. But I don't need to be reminded of it every single time. I don't need to know of your sexual exploits.

I do need to remind some people of it every time. There is no excuse for 6 years of very open, informative, clear communication that I'm a girl... and no change. Don't worry, i overuse everything in phases: I'll stop saying anything about being trans for months and suddenly pick up again some other time. Maybe not even that much.

And I don't tell of my sexual exploits on a need to know basis... I freely share it. Someday, some poor human will read something I wrote, and their sex life will improve dramatically.

Unless it involved tentacles... Dodgy

Quote:I don't need to know that you think all men are dumb muscle.

This was my ribbing response to you stating that all women were bad for innovation Tongue

Quote:This is a gentle request: Please stop bringing it up. It's like the gay people who are not content with being gay; the ones who feel the need to remind me every ten minutes. You need prove NOTHING to me; my opinion of you is happily neutral; your choices are your own! I am not going to judge you for those choices. Ok? You need not assert yourself, you need not work for my tolerance and acceptance because I already both tolerate AND accept you.

Please stop making transsexual jokes? 0.o That's like asking Minimalist to stop making theist jokes. I post a lot, I sometimes post what's on my mind (or my mind)... you can remember *6* times when I've referred to transsexuality, and you bitch about it? Does this mean I get to bitch about all you wankers about your atheism? I don't care, and yet you make post after post about it every day. Do I complain? Rarely, and when I do it's tongue in cheek.

* Violet thinks you need to grasp some perspective.

Quote:You say that your genderal issues are the forefront struggle of your life; if nothing else, it need not be the case here. I cannot help but labor under the intense suspicion that nobody here looks down on you for it. Well. Except the theists, but they can eat my ass, anyway...

Case in point Wink

Again, I'm trans and transsexuality is funny. One day I'll be able to walk up to a plastic surgeon and ask for a 'vagina job' right alongside my 'nose job' Tongue

You lot struggle with (a)theism... I struggle with being trans. Even with the entire support of the whole world, being trans will still be a struggle. If you want me to stop posting *anything* about being trans... you all must at the same time stop posting *anything* about (a)theism. Wouldn't want a double standard here, I'd have to stop coming.

Quote:There, I just...felt that needed to be said. Tongue Please don't be mad.

Please don't be mad? I'm being firm, not mad Tongue

Quote:Now, if you would like, I can write out an explanatory post that removes all elements of rhetoric and exaggeration, but I assure you; it will be a very boring post.

You can do that if you like... just remember that blankets are for cuddling: not for judgement.

Ask a female coworker to lift more then 25 lbs, good luck getting a kind response.

Huh. That's all I've got. Just huh.

No it doesn't. I comes with equal rights to work and labor. If you can't do the fucking job, you can't do the job. You should have the right to apply, fail and get fired whether or not you have a penis.

Great thing about being a chick, I can still own a penis. Tongue

RE: How to gain and lose a friend in 2 weeks.
I must say, Vae...my first impression of you was a slightly minor one. I hadn't found you altogether remarkable, but now that you've whipped out the intellect, I must say, I am highly impressed. Allow me to recompose my thoughts, hopefully get a good night's rest, and then maybe I can make my point far more articulated and with less unintended bigotry. If not, I'll just surrender the point to you. Big Grin

Don't be impressed by me, I'm actually rather stupid. About all I am is articulate... and even then I have a tendency to screw words up (examples: 'Lilly wiggle' becomes 'WILLY LIGGLE!' and 'pepperoni, green pepper and onion' becomes 'Pepperoni and green onion!')
