There's a lot about OOT I wish was different, but it isn't changing and you can either shake your head, judge people and then move on and enjoy what you can or you're just going to find yourself not enjoying things.

Very well put. One of the things I like about OOT is that it brings alot of very different people together. It is a great resource for viewpoints, ideas and information that are interesting and valuable and a whole lot that isnt. I know that I have learned quite a bit from OOT, even if I am occasionally offended.

Sorry Duck if we offended you.

Edit: And throw me in with the sick bunch that likes fat chicks. I'll take the Bass player.

Oh, you speak too soon when you say no one wants to see pictures of men here. I would very much like to see you all post links to nude pictures of yourselves, and then I (and any other female OOTers) would get to pick you apart, give you numerical ratings, comment on aspects of your anatomy that are repellemt or "deal breakers," and discuss whether or not you "measure up" (remembering by definition that half of you are below the median).

LOL,

Don't forget that excessive fat usually takes an inch or two off.

I feel like you percieve this overriding malice towards women/protection of men and therein lies the problem for you.

You know what the real problem is? Its that there are too many fat women in this world. We should round them up and put them on a fat farm. The farm isn't for them to lose weight because that would allow them to procreate and create fat little babies. The farm will be a "Hunt the fatty" farm and people can buy tickets to shoot fat chicks. That way only skinny chick genes will be left over. The fat chicks will die for a good cause. Their lives won't be wasted, they can be turned into bars of soap. That way we can save the real "whales".

I do not think so. That's my opinion, we don't have to agree. Stop arguing for the sake of arguing, it's getting old.

[/ QUOTE ]

Telling someone to shut up is generally not the best way to stop them from arguing with you.

Shut up

btw- I am constantly amused by the concept of Ed's mom posting here. This is in no small part because mom jokes make up a good 80% of my humor. It is also because she provides this really awesome, outsider looking in kinda wisdom to the whole operation (we call it wisdom when people are smart and over 50).

That and she appears to have the very necessary capacity to not get too riled by any one thing.

Guys - I'm curious why the hate for ms. Duck? Would you make similiar crass comments in real life in the presence of a woman? I doubt it.

And how about speaking your mind? There are countless thoughts that pass through our heads every minute. Why express the negative thoughts that serve no other purpose than to demean a person you don't even care about? Isn't there something more positive you could say? It's very clear, based on the big discussion recently about reducing caca posts in OOT, that many us of us should practice a bit more self censorship. So even though I might see a picture of a stranger and think to myself "Gee, that's a fat dumb bitch", is there any useful purpose served in broadcasting this thought in cyberspace? I for one would gladly refrain from expressing these thoughts if it meant not alienating the few females who do post here.

And as for the argument of "even if I don't say it, I'll still believe it", listen to some Anthony Robbins motivational CDs.

Boris - if the OP were simply about asking for a greater level of civility when rating women's looks, that's fair and clearly not flame worthy. But this is being tied into a greater social question of how this type of discourse is "promulgating misogyny". There's some truth in that, but the argument hasn't been made well. That's where the flaming happened.

I see you are sticking to the "no bro" form of address. A man of his word. (Though I never thought bro was condescendin on any level.)
