Not that I really give a shit but you could at least act in a manner that doesn't make you seem like a spoiled cunt and causes sanity damage to innocent bystanders like me.
what's wrong with what you quoted? how is she being spoiled by saying that, actually? you're all running in circles

More like I'm aware it's completely worthless trying to debate you because I already know you're not going to change your mind no matter what I say. You're mentally ill and too young, so this is the best thing to do cause it saves us both a lot of time. :)

You should go get an education, and not a public one this once. Your understanding of logic is delightful in its akwardness. :hug:

What a fucking mindbogglingly conceited and ignorant thing to post. I am too high for this shit. Not that Roguey is acting much better, you are giving me bad flashbacks of a youth misspent.

Misspent youth you say...?


Go on. :avatard:

what is wrong with the "right" to be more like men? You probably fucked up the words there and I was going to ask about what is wrong with women being more like men in general but... well I don't know much about female behavior anyway so there's the question in case you typed it right

Girls are not guys. We are not like we are because guys force us. We are like we are because, you know, we are like that.

There is a certain pressure to conform to social expectations, sure, but that's true for both girls and guys.

Those girls who want to be men? Go for it, I say, either if you just want to identify with their gender roles or grow a penis. It's their choice. However don't try to force us normal girls we are the product of a thousand years of oppression and shit, and that we should instead enjoy growing a penis too.

I don't mean to go hoopy(exactly the kind of poster that would be all over this thread, with his neverending butthurt and tendency to take things too literally) on you but that doesn't make any sense

I don't know the proper words in english for this, but according to those transexuals I know there are two kinds of them:

1. Those who identify with the social or natural roles of the other gender.

2. Those who go all the way and want to grow/ungrow extra bits.

I.E: If you are a guy who want to be a girl, then you are a standard transexual. If you are a guy who identifies himself with girls and wants to express himself like a girl, take the roles in society that a girl would usually take, etc, then you are an emotional transexual. Or something like that.

You should ask one of the locals about it, it is quite probable I misunderstood something along the way.

It's nothing exciting. I was big into political activism when I was younger. Being a dirty pinko I off course spent an inordinate amount of time with feminists of various denominations and I've been a member of several groups with some sort of feminist agenda. Shit, I've lectured school classes on gender issues. Being a part of this milieu really soured me towards the majority of the feminist movement. I guess I'm still a feminist but I'm kinda bitter about the whole thing. Black Cat is giving me flashbacks of a different context but I really don't wanna get into that.

Trying to be more like men isn't the same as trying to be men, do you admit that was a emotional reaction

this is the third time I see this kind of thing coming from you, it could be a concidence or tinfoilhattery of course, but you should know that's not supposed to be happening... at least I don't think so

I don't know the proper words in english for this
neither do I actually

1. Those who identify with the social or natural roles of the other gender.

2. Those who go all the way and want to grow/ungrow extra bits.
according to the codex trannies, if I'm not remembering things selectively, the issue is "biological", they are born with fucked up brains and they actually believe they're women when they're men, which fucks them up and one of the only ways to lessen the fuckening is to try to be more like a woman, functionally

tag them if you want

it makes sense, there are all sorts of weirdos but to be sure of that(and the numbers, which could be relevant, up to you really) one would need statistics or some shit

Your biggest flaw.

Please, do tell me more about how you would prefer to date and mate your fellow Bros. o_O




I'm writing a little bit every night! But I have to balance it with my need to finish grinding for my Atrox Carrier before I have to go back to school, otherwise I'm not ever getting it and thus my Fed characters will be forced to be cruiser captains instead. Do you want to guilty of me never having an Atrox Carrier and having to spend eternity as a beam bitch and a mobile hospital? Well, do you? :(

I did just check wikipedia and...

Transgender ( /trænzˈdʒɛndər/) is a general term applied to a variety of individuals, behaviors, and groups involving tendencies to vary from culturally conventional gender roles.
Transgender is the state of one's "gender identity" (self-identification as woman, man, neither or both) not matching one's "assigned sex" (identification by others as male, female or intersexbased on physical/genetic sex).[1] "Transgender" does not imply any specific form of sexual orientation; transgender people may identify as heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, pansexual,polysexual, or asexual; some may consider conventional sexual orientation labels inadequate or inapplicable to them. The precise definition for transgender remains in flux, but includes:

"Of, relating to, or designating a person whose identity does not conform unambiguously to conventional notions of male or female gender roles, but combines or moves between these."[2]

"People who were assigned a sex, usually at birth and based on their genitals, but who feel that this is a false or incomplete description of themselves."[3]

"Non-identification with, or non-presentation as, the sex (and assumed gender) one was assigned at birth."[4]

A transgender individual may have characteristics that are normally associated with a particular gender, identify elsewhere on the traditional gender continuum, or exist outside of it as "other", "agender", "Genderqueer", or "third gender". Transgender people may also identify as bigender, or along several places on either the traditional transgender continuum, or the more encompassing continuums which have been developed in response to the significantly more detailed studies done in recent years.[5]

But "transexual" actually refers only to the physical form, so I guess I did pick the wrong english word after all.

yes, the other thing you mentioned sounds more like some (other?) sort of disorder or fetish kind of thing, like crossdressers

I can't get a Societal Stockholm Syndrome sufferer to agree that her captors don't have her best interests in mind, I'm not qualified for that at all. So why bother? That's why I chose not to engage you in this thread until you directly addressed me. :P

You don't have to prove her that she's wrong. Proving me that she's wrong would be enough. Internet arguments are often fought to convince the audience that the other side is wrong, not to convince the other side.
Sure I'm ad homming it up, but here we have a girl who starves herself to near-death in an attempt to achieve some warped body type trying to say that the objectification of women isn't harmful. It's like a lung cancer patient trying to say that cigarettes are just fine while coughing up one of those diseased lungs.
Broken chicks going wild for alpha bro with magical charisma powers; not seeing the sexism.
They're not fully-realized characters of their own. How disturbing it is that every female character in Torment is either a prostitute, obsessed with TNO, or some incidental npc.

At least Chris eventually saw the error of his ways and stopped being problematic. I guess you can continue to remain in denial as long as the person actually doing the writing isn't shitty anymore.

Chris was a fat sheltered virgin when he wrote them, what would that kind of person possibly know about writing women aside from what he's seen in other shitty media?

:x

I refuse to believe this.

The spiral of doom for Interplay was pretty evident around that time – Torment, Fallout, and other projects were the last of the 2-3 year development cycle within Dragonplay/Black Isle Games and the cycles became shorter and shorter as Interplay ran out of cash. I recovered from Fallout, lost some weight, gained a social life, lost more weight, actually learned more about Orange County, all against the backdrop of Interplay’s death throes.

You are projecting.

I am a extremely superficial fashionista. I had become pretty good at professional make up artist techniques before starting highschool, and a great deal of my life is studying fashion and beautiful, glamorous girls so I can learn what it is about their looks, personality, characteristics, etc, that makes them so awesome so I can reproduce it on myself by means of butchering my own personality and both starving and working the fuck out of my body. I never denied that. Actually, I -embrace- it as my identity. I am utterly happy being so.

You are assuming this issue is related to gender politics, though, while providing no evidence about it. From the exact same known facts you could argue I objetified myself because I enjoy being an object, as long as such object is target of enough male desire and female envy. Which is, actually, much closer to the truth.

Then, not only girls go that way. While less in number there are men who embrace such a lifestyle too. Are they the result of guys objectifying girls too?

Maybe you would find easier to understand shit if you don't start from the assumption men are evil and we are all poor victims of male oppression. *shrug*

In any case you seem to be pretty blinded by your ideals and beliefs, which do nothing but remind me why I prefer to have no ideals at all outside of beauty and popularity. Thank you for that, lately I had been forgetting it myself. :hug:

Except that almost no one faps to images of anorectic girls. That kind of deviancy is created by the fashion industry for girls, not for men's enjoyment. Fuck, even the alien creatures on fucking fashion drawings make me want to puke. Also, she said that she's too busy enjoying objectification of men in games to care about objectification of women. A point that you forget to take into account.

I feel like once you go from discussing violent nuns in spandex in a video game trailer to whether or not reality isn't real, how you don't even know what you don't know, penis worship, and how women want to be men who want to be women who want to be gay who want to be laksjfownfnwf, the train of conversation has gone several stations too far, the brakes are broken, and it is hurtling towards a fiery collision at the end of the Retardo Railroad line.

If you prefer, you may sum up the above as:
:hmmm:

Women get shot or stoned for leaving the house without a burka, or for having been raped by the wrong two men. And you whine about darwin arward nominees, boo fucking hoo. Get your shit straight.
