I mean, the whole "women are complicated and we can never know how they work" really is a harmful media stereotype.

It's not a stereotype. It's as old as time, even before "media" existed.

We are hard-wired to understand other men better because it was more advantageous for us when it came time for hunting/gathering. Also, when it came time to compete for mates. There have been psychological studies on this topic.

Even today, in most societies, when there are large gatherings of people (strangers or even large families) we naturally gravitate towards the same sex to communicate.

For the most part I agree. However the basic differences between men and women is different from the media stereotype that's been built and perpetuated throughout much of history. The stereotype can be harmful in the way that any media stereotype is. It reduces even casual interactions between men and women into these overly complicated and often pernicious puzzles that need to be solved in order to figure out actual intention. I've been re-watching Coupling recently with my GF and that show is rotten with this kind of ridiculous scenario (even if it's mostly still funny).

BUUUUT

The poster wasn't perpetuating that stereotype by saying the simple truth that people are complicated and we can't know what they're thinking at any given moment.

Rewatching Coupling after watching Moffat's Doctor Who is a fucking surreal experience.

Turns out Coupling ended up being the best thing he ever did.

Did you know you can imply Trump and Putin suck each others dicks without implying that they are gay?

Cause sucking dick suddenly makes you gay.

Wasn't there a satirical article on Resistancehole basically predicting this idiotic liberal behavior? Satire can barely keep up with the morons in this country.

If you're willing to believe in ghosts then you're willing to also believe in cosmic beings

[Jansen]

With the exception that we have scientific proof on the workings of the world and have largely made mythology superfluous. You'll notice that the remaining modern religions aren't very bothered with explaining volcanoes and thunder as the work of Gods.

Spiritualism is there, spiritualism will be there, insulting people who believe in the afterlife and religion makes you a bigot. Let people believe what they want to believe instead of treating them like shit when you don't have ANY way to disprove what they believe in.

And again, people who believe in ghosts will usually, if they're victims to a "haunting" seek out evidence to the CONTRARY of the haunting, NOT to prove that they are in fact victims of a Ghost.

And yes, I know there can and will be people with a confirmation bias that want to believe they're haunted by a ghost, but most people take solace in knowing that it's natural causes, not supernatural, simply because you cannot "fix" supernatural causes.

There's being rational, and there's being a complete twat. See Richard Dawkins.

[Optimus]

The anti-vaxxer movement is there, anti-vaxxers will be there, insulting people who believe that a flu shot gives you autism makes you a bigot. Let people believe what they want to believe instead of treating them like shit when you don't have ANY way to disprove what they believe in.

Nationalsozialismus is there, Nationalsozialismus will be there, insulting people who believe that the Fuhrer did nothing wrong makes you a bigot. Let people believe what they want to believe instead of treating them like shit when you don't have ANY way to disprove what they believe in.

If Putin was a woman, and there would be political cartoons depicting a Trump romantically cozying up to her, would that be considered heterophobic?

Stupid me, why am I asking questions I already know answers to. It would be sexist.

Yep and if you put a gay politician kissing an opposite sex person, it's STILL homophobia. Because you're trying to erase their identity.

No, no. Wait. I think I got it. Forcing two non-consenting parties (real or imagined) to partake in sexual contact against their wishes. Basically rape.

[Nintex]

And that's why the libs keep losing and Trump keeps winning. Because while they twist their panties debating if a drawing of Trump kissing Putin is homophobic or not Mad Dog Mattis announces he's going to meet with the Russian top military brass and a new SCOTUS  is appointed by spineless Republicans.

Hillary ran on the platform of: "OH GOD LOOK AT WHAT TRUMP DID TODAY!" and it did not work.
I'm not sure #resistance is still focused on this strategy. They're the Jedi council blind to the fact that they will soon be eliminated.
Because after all the systems has checks and balances.

A lot of people in that thread are going to get actioned if that ban on vilifying journalism turns out to not only apply to kotaku.

If it’s not a thread about men telling women what they should find offensive, it’s a thread about straight men telling gay men what they should find offensive.

Have we had a recent thread where white people tell people of color what they should find offensive?

I want to make sure Era stays rounded out.

A bit much coming from a poster with around 3000 posts with nothing but telling others what they absolutely have to find offensive.

[HaughtyFrank]

I want to make the following thread:

Why are we ok with gay man being misogynist?

Without a doubt, throughout history, gay men have experience homophobia.

But maybe that's a good thing.

Think about it. Nothing defines a man like his penis. And there's nothing any man (gay or straight) wants to do more than stick it somewhere. The female pussy is the perfect complement of the male penis. Perfectly designed with the right fit, temperature and texture, and even includes a self-lubrication system.

But these gay men hate women so much they would rather stick their penis into a poop hole than have to stand being around a woman for a whole 3 minutes.

It is 2018. Why is this ok?
