Yeah, a lot of internet communities are hostile toward women, and I have my own theories on why that is...

And seriously, it's not even necessary to use such things to bash Hilary, she has plenty of legitimate faults to go around.

[Mobius]

Simple...the number of females is very, very low. That makes certain kinds of posts, which might irritate a woman, very common.

women are evil dirty whores

that is all i have to say about that

Just tell them to go gb2/kitchen/.

Anyway. 

The democratic party is torn.

They have a great chance, and I'd really hate to seem them lose it over internal bickering.

I have no problem with comments that might not be perceived as appropriate in mixed company, and even the occasional sexist joke can be quite funny, but it is so overused that it is quite frankly old and tiresome.

@Nuke
As long as you're talking about Hilary, I agree.

[Mobius]

Sicko

As does anyone...as does Barrack. There's something fishy about that guy...

Everyone whining and crying about the girl jokes in here needs a lesson in internetz.

First session will answer the age-old question: "Should I Take Internetz Srsly?"

[Mars]

When I have children, I'm going to use the internet to teach them about healthy attitudes regarding gender.

Uh... what?

What if you have daughters?

I think that post needed a sarcasm tag.

Seriously, guys, those remarks were offensive. Think you’d like it if your professional credibility was dismissed because testosterone makes people too aggressive?

Do you people seriously believe that this is funny? There are women out there who hear these same remarks when they're turned down for jobs. There are women who are told this is the reason they can't be president.

Listen to Rian and shut the hell up.

I'm obviously missing something. I did not mean to make ANY offensive statement regaurding women. I was stating that any young girl who turned to the internet for information on gender roles would become a seriously messed up adult. Now that I think about it that applies to men as well.

How my statement was sexist is quite beyond me

It wasn't; the comments weren't directed towards you.

@nuclear1
I don't take the internet seriously, and this issue doesn't get me worked up or anything. It's just like I said though, it is tiresome and rarely funny.

[Hellstryker]

Guys SHUT UP about the comments/internets/women already god damnit. I started this thread about politics, and i have plenty of reasons for prefering Obama over Hillary and it has NOTHING to do with her being a woman.

Ahhh, so you like the communist...

P.S.
Don't peg me as a McCain supporter, he's an idiot...

[Fearless Leader]

Women are wounder full beings, strange and hard to fathom, when we are close to understanding, they do something new to confound us. Each one is unique and beautiful in her own way, although covered in layers of defenses, one added for every person that hurt her.
Yet we poor men are drawn to these sirens, many perish on the wrecks of who has gone before hearing only the song not seeing only the goal or the dangers, unaware. Then ask "why" as we sink in the icy waters after embracing a phantom as the truth, not ever truly seeing the goal, feeling only the pang of loss, not knowing that we never truly had.
But a man seeing the goal at the end, and avoiding the phantom and the shoals, even in falling short of the prize, will not hold malice in his heart upon parting, but hope in knowing what may be.

[Polpolion]

On the other hand I'm not sure why she or anyone else would want to be president now, with the economy being a slow motion train wreck, iraq, oil, and a host of other serious issues.

Huh, seems like you answered your own question. When things are going really badly, you don't need to do much to make it seem like your the best thing that ever happened to the nation. Plus the fact that they all think that they know the perfect solution for those problems doesn't hurt at all.

[Ford Prefect]

If Obama is a communist to you, I can't begin to imagine your appraisal of actual liberals.

I am honestly confused as to what you think an actual liberal is seeing as Obama during his time as a senator was one of the most (if not the most) liberal members of the Senate.

[Mars]

I suspect Ford Perfects definition of Liberal is something like this:

[Ford Prefect]

Being the most liberal senator in the US is like being the coolest person in the chess club. Even as a hyperbole, the word "communist" implies extremism, which is a hard case to make when even a liberal senator has to back off from marijuana decriminalization.

[Mars]

I will grant you that. Plus I think the Education system needs a lot more changes than the Federal government under any direction is willing to give.

Of the three canidates that have a chance of winning Obama is probably the most liberal.
