For strong womyn everywhere: "Internet Plus Equality"

[Gahars]

Even I know to do unto others as you would have done unto you.

Do unto others, do onto others, do into others, it all gets so confusing after awhile.

Do unto others, do onto others, do into others (...)

Sounds like a party.

It's the Golden Shower Rule, baby.

Are you taking the piss? Oh, I'm not cool with that, that attitude stinks!

Let us raise the slumbering giant with a themed post. Thanks to Smea on IRC yesterday I think it was.

I read that and I am reeling.... why did nobody tell me being flippant was a bad thing?

On a related note though since when do only women get pictures of genitalia, I thought it was just a standard part of forum life?

The feminists are picking the new Smash Brothers apart, but to be honest they're kind of right in this case:

Never hide the tits at all costs

Over the course of the past two years I’ve had the opportunity to serve as producer on the Tropes vs Women in Video Gamesweb series.

Usually it takes a little reading before you know whether or not to disregard someone's opinion, so I'll commend him for getting that out of the way upfront. :^)

Isn't it? Aw crap, and I've been PMing pics of my genitalia to every new member in the introductions board

Oh well, if it isn't standard elsewhere, it is here.

So you are telling us you are the reason that we get new members join, stomach the forum long enough to get their question answered and then leave to never be seen again?
Not for the first time. Damn it Veho.

I am weeding out the weak and the whiny, making the forum a better place

 

[FAST6191]

There is weeding out the weak and whiny and there is giving people feelings of inadequacy.

Bah, potayto tomato. If the Dong of Damocles dangling in their face is enough to scare them off, we're better off without them

That is acceptable, the porn industry was second only to the skateboard/BMX/roller blade worlds in their use of the ultra fisheye lens.

This may be insensitive, discriminatory, fat-shaming, thin-normative* and privileged, but Daleks are supposed to be the bad guys, right? I don't see the problem.


*at this point I'm just pulling it out of my ass really

I'd just be offended that someone plastered Dr. Who in a gym. Damn it, guys, it's supposed to be my safe place!
