Heh, this thread reminds me of my race class and gender class I took in college. It was a giant waste of time. Just like this thread. I'd quote the "care-o-meter" that was on the second page or so, but I don't feel like getting it.

Seriously Ameri, go do something productive.

Of for the love of Mary and Joseph.

Please, for the sake of my sanity, learn to read before you get your elitist panties in a bunch. Just because "gender" and "sex" can be synonyms doesn't mean they mutually define eachother. Claiming, once again, that I support sexual discrimination through the use of a word that harbors no negative connotation nor has historically been used to persecute a group of people is a baseless argument. You obviously have strong opinions about the number of gender roles our society deems acceptable, but that does not, by any stretch of the imagination, mean that people who go by the dictionary definition of a the word "gender" and use it to define their sex are persecuting you or me or anyone else.

If I go outside and yell "my gender is female" no one is going to tell me I should be pregnant and in the kitchen. That's just a figment of your odd imagination.

It amazes me that you seem so open minded about the ideas of gender and sexuality, but are so insufferably close minded about language and the opinions of others.

What would you prefer I call you? It? Shim? She-male? Or are you done nitpicking? If you haven't stated that you are male or female, then it is entirely irrelevent what people call you.

All your evidence points to a concerted effort to move social norms into law, and an attempt to legally enforce everybody to be follow those norms.

they don't show any evidence of tieing anything together.

So, you're saying that womanhood is defined by whether they're in the kitchen cooking or not.

Its funny when people are full of themselves -and- have no idea what they're talking about -and- have no idea how to argue the crap they're trying to pass along as reality.

Is there something wrong with a woman who chooses to spend time in the kitchen?

Tremble, forums, when Daganev/Celina/Xavius/Acrune unite behind one common argument...

For the record, I can't cook worth a damn. Put me in the kitchen all day and you'll just have more macaroni and ramen then you ever wanted.

edit: hahahaha Xenthos

Daganev: Semantics!
Xavius: Logic!
Celina: Passion!
Acrune: Sarcasm!

By your powers combined, I am Captain PWN!11!1-ET

For a second, I thought that was just cute, but then I think that those 4 things are the various influence battle debating mindsets, and I loled (but I can't remember if thats true or not )

mindsets: Cautious, Analytical, Pedantic

Debate styles: Pettifoggery, Pontification, Passion

There's only three debating attacks, but I think they're covered here. I think that Sarcasm is the extra. Passion is passion, Logic is pontification and semantics is pettifoggery. Or is it logic is pettifoggery and semantics is pontification?

I couldn't think of an apt label for Acrune's style >_<

He has style? Ha!

I have extreme style! You're just jealous

Isn't extreme style things like splitting your tongue down the middle and implanting metal spikes in your skull?

And you're just full of yourself, but who is keeping track?

You know I'm amusing.

Edit: And you're just a hater because I ducks. I the way they waddle, and I the way they quack, and I the way they nibble my fingers when I feed them bread out of my hand

Right, but you can't do that on forums, so instead, I do what I do

Yeah, in the same style as someone hurting themselves.
