Well, I'm not planning to get into a tit-for-tat match here, certainly not with an Admin who loves to ban people for no good reason. But I at least wanted to address how Zac attempted to dismiss my legitimate points by accusing me of not knowing anything about communication. Although, I may have made a mistake in telling him to talk to his columnist; the 'joke' should have been picked up in editing and it wasn't.
Thankfully I never had to experience a messy divorce, but men are unambiguously discriminated against in the divorce court systems here in New Zealand, and have been for decades (at least). That is institutionalised misandry, no question about it. Also in New Zealand there is social (though not legal) discrimination against male kindergarten teachers who comprise little more than one percent of kindergarten staff. Finally, there is a subtle but devastating misandry that exists in schools and universities, not against male teachers but against male students. The education system is so geared up to helping girls and women that boys are being left behind. That isn't just a catchphrase, it's stark reality and the gap is only getting wider. Is the level of misandry in society as bad as or worse than misogyny? Hell no. But don't belittle it. Last edited by dtm42 on Sat Jul 14, 2012 7:20 pm; edited 1 time in total |

I treat people equally based on who they are as stated before our generation is in charge of doing this now and re-opining old wounds that are nearly 50 years old now don't serve a point. I'm not missing the point at all fence-dude the point if both are sexist then both parties need to acknowledge this to make it stop. Saying oh this is okay because I'm a guy this is targeted at me or this is okay because I'm girl and this is targeted at me. This doesn't make it less sexist so as far as I concerned either both parties put up or shut up on the issue. |

I blanched too. Anyone who thinks that way is a troll and/or a piece of work. Just ignore them. |

Going to start handing out bans pretty liberally if you people can't keep it civil.

1.) auto correct/spell check does that not me 2.) How doesn't make any sense sexism exist with both genders In ads, anime, book, t.v., music etc. To say it doesn't is retarded, I personally find ads with buff guys on tv offensive because it portrays something that doesn't exist and people lust after. I'm also against woman being objectifies as well in the same ads in the same way. If you want gender equality for all then both NEED TO STOP how the hell is that so hard to comprehend? I see a ban incoming for myself for dragging this issue out.. =_= |

Isn't like Guro one of the more popular taboo subjects alongside Futa/Newhalfs in H-Manga/Dojins? |

I wouldn't put it up nearly that high, but yes, there is a non-trivial amount of it. Basically, everything is someone's fetish, and there's nothing wrong with that, as long as it doesn't harm anyone else. |

Anime fans do not need to gather weekly to argue. If you go to 4Chan or a particular site that ends with -Suki, you will see that they argue by the minute, or faster. |
