Anyone read this article in the Guardian today? It was pretty interesting but I couldn’t really focus because the first few paragraphs really boiled my piss. The assertion that, until now, no one has noticed that most extremist violence is committed by men and that this is some kind of revelation. I’m pretty sure most women everywhere spotted this about 500 years ago. But what the author really means is that no men noticed or acknowledged this. Ugh.

Gender? Hmm. I doubt it's simply because of the way people self-identified. Whatever else could be a common denominator?

So many deleted comments they may as well not have allowed them anyway.

The Guardian has become the left version of the Daily Mail.

I know exactly what the deleted comments said before they were deleted because I read that article and refreshed as soon as it was published. They were nearly all removed for saying sex not gender.

Someone's blunted their coloured crayons for this article.

Most violent crime is committed by people belonging to one sex = men.

Nobody has ever been violent because of their gender.

What? men commit most of the extremist violence

Noooooo,

Gosh when did that start?

Goodness

What they share is their sex, not their gender.

A lot of deleted comments on there. Wonder what they were saying.
