Had enough of their agenda being forced down my throat whether I want it or not. Major recruitment drive going on lately, and serious opression of other posters views. Just gets worse and worse. This was not what I believed MN was supposed to be about.

I'm off.

If you find it witty to attack someone in that way, then your choice. You don't do yourselves any favours and even if this OP was being pathetic, its really all be en undone by that and helped to prove the point about bullying. Congrats.

You should be so proud of yourself.

It has taught me A LOT. I thought I was A-OK, fully liberated and all. And I listened and I argued and I learned. And I know now that I am not nearly as liberated as I thought I was. I want it to be different for my dd.

BupcakesandCunting · 21/02/2012 19:39

YABU

The feminists on this board have made me question SHITLOADS of stuff that I used to think was acceptable and I am bloody glad. All hail the radfems!

Hullygully · 21/02/2012 19:39

here here

bullying is never attractive. bitchy women in the playground eyeing up each other's men.

yellowraincoat · 21/02/2012 19:40

Your man wants me Hullygully and I've got his buttery eyeball to prove it.

BasilRathbone · 21/02/2012 19:41

LOL at this thread.

Oh those horrid Rad Fems

They bully me (the bastards are always posting links to research and evidence and stuff, disproving my arguments).

And make me start threads where I can slag them off.

Oh the irony.

Portofino · 21/02/2012 19:42

Me too Bupcakes! You don't have to AGREE with everything, but if it makes you at least think about the argument,it can only be a good thing imho.

Hullygully · 21/02/2012 19:43

It's simple biology. Women compete for the best sperm. As in life, so on MN. Sad but trufax. Gels will be gels.

yellowraincoat · 21/02/2012 19:44

I dunno. I have been a feminist all my life and I feel a little uncomfortable in the feminist section. Never have done in any other feminist space or forum.

LOL at competing for sperm.

I won the cup.

"It's simple biology. Women compete for the best sperm."

Am now picturing lots of women doing stuff like caber tossing/arm-wrestling/tug-of-war for a trophy full of Prime Spunk.

Thankings, Hully.

You know what Rhino, no-one's accountable to you.

No one needs to deny anything.

You have posted several nasty things about radical feminists.

And then you hve the cheek to whine about being bullied.

Hullygully · 21/02/2012 19:45

Don't be silly, Bups.

Wmoem, real women, don't lose their femininty when they compete. It's all done with stockings and mascara. Did your mother teach you nothing?

ChickensHaveNoLips · 21/02/2012 19:46

I didn't compete for sperm. I was after his money.

Hullygully · 21/02/2012 19:47

Money and sperm are inseparable for the uber woman.

BupcakesandCunting · 21/02/2012 19:47

Did YOUR mother teach you nothing, Hully? I can caber-toss whilst wearing stockings and a bandage dress.

TiggyD · 21/02/2012 19:47

I don't mind people who say they're leaving and leave.

'Flouncing' is when you say you're leaving because of people thinking this, or doing that...

'Flouncing' implies the stomping of feet and the slamming of doors like a sulky teenager.

ChickensHaveNoLips · 21/02/2012 19:47

If they were really inseperable, we'd all have to wear gloves. And no bugger would want to be a banker.

BupcakesandCunting · 21/02/2012 19:49

I love it when people leave then just come back to have another tuppence worth. It reminds me of that episode of Friends where Ross stages his own funeral to see what people are bothered then he can't resist jumping out of Rachel's bedroom when a girl from school turns up.

Hullygully · 21/02/2012 19:50

Altho I agree, yellow, there is oft (imo) a (perhaps unsurprising and inevitable) bunker mentality thing going down.

But it doesn't change the need for radfemness sprinkled far and wide.

BasilRathbone · 21/02/2012 19:50

I've never seen that episode.

One of the great pleasures of my life, is that I didn't watch the first 3 series of Friends, so occasionally I get to see an episode I'd never seen before.

It's bliss

BupcakesandCunting · 21/02/2012 19:52

Oh my life Basil, you NEED to watch it. Actually made me wheeze with laughter.
