There's a whole lot of projecting going on here. I didn't charge you with sexual harrassment or make ad hominem attacks on you. Lighten up. I was making an observation about Schopenhauer. He was a social loser, disliked women and his philosophy shows it. I didn't attack either of you or say anything about buying into women as victims.

I was just opining (that's still legal here, right?) that I hate threads (like these) that end up pitting the sexes against each other instead of promoting conservative philosophy. Every time I object to girls vs. boys threads some rockhead jumps to the wrong conclusion.

This is my opinion--there are conservative men and conservative women, (smart people); and there are liberal men and liberal women, (stupid people). Can we leave the lines drawn there and leave the sex out? Militant feminists are first and foremost liberals, and therefore stupid. That they are women is secondary, and certainly gives them nothing more in common with conservative women than gender. Hilter was a man, and Saddam is a man, but I don't think all men are bad. That would be stupid.

There is? How so?

I never said you did, especially because you didn't.

Lighten up.

I was making an observation about Schopenhauer. He was a social loser, disliked women and his philosophy shows it.

His life & how it has interjected itself into his philosophy is irrelevant. It's no different than shooting down anything a woman says on the basis of her looks, without even looking into the merit of what she has had to say. Men who have found social success could embrace some of the close minded bigotry that Schopenhauer expressed, so arguing against his philosophy by citing his own lack of social success does nothing to dispel anything he says.

The men in this thread are just responding to the feminazis in the article calling them animals and dildos and so forth, so of course sex is relevant in this case. As he says in post 67, DarkSavant doesn't really agree with Schopenhauer...he's just giving the feminazis a taste of their own medicine. Same for muir_redwoods' "list of men". Apparently, you thought they were seriously trying to be sexist, labeling this thread a "girls v boys" thread, when in fact it wasn't one until you showed up.

Can we leave the lines drawn there and leave the sex out?

Here's your very last post before you started posting in this thread: tsk, men.
