Quote: aceofspadesSo, if someone says something that you deem offensive, physical violence is the appropriate response?
What if a woman made an offensive remark to a man - same standard?
Reminds me of a post I made in my blog:Quote: www.epicesquire.comI was just walking on the Strip and one of the S&M cops with the whip hit me in the ass with her whip as I walked by – I neither requested it nor welcomed it – if one of the shirtless men who pose for photos on the Strip smacked a woman on the ass as she walked by – society would be outraged and the #metoo movement would protest – I get whipped and people walking by smile and giggle
There are different standards for men and women. It’s always been that way. It’s not fair and it’s probably not going to change.
But as everyone has been telling ZK in his threads, you can either play by the rules of society, or you can whine about them on the internet.

Women didn't ask men to give up their right to vote for decades, but that would have been totally fair.
Also, men weren't asked to pony up for our share of legal beatings men did either.
Quote:In the U.S., the courts continued to uphold a man's right to punish his wife with violence until 1871. In a case known as Fulgam vs. the State of Alabama, the court ruled that, "The privilege, ancient though it may be, to beat her with a stick, to pull her hair, choke her, spit in her face or kick her about the floor or to inflict upon her other like indignities, is not now acknowledged by our law."
Quote: MrVDo those folks get to eat all they can eat, or are there limits imposed on their seemingly gargantuan appetites?
You have to buy a coke for every burger you get.
Quote: aceofspadesYou do realize the majority of women did NOT want the right to vote
They had it. Just don't vote. Has nothing to do with what the others wanted.

Here ya go:
paddling video
Looks like fun. Looks like everyone was having fun. Understood that they'd agreed to be paddled and could laugh it off.
Tons of places provide a safe, predictable and bland experience. So again, I'd say if you don't like it, go have some jack Daniels asian nachos at one of the 87 tgi Fridays or chili's locations and let the fun people have their places.

Yep. Except I'd say this example is quite fair.
It's quite complicated but one obvious factor is women are physically vulnerable to men. I guess that's not fair, but so it is. We have social norms that help balance it out.
It kind of boils down to just being a baby, like much of this thread. If you're a man and you can't shrug off a lewd gesture by a street performer in place called Sin City then the problem isn't with the rest of society.
As bad as feminists can be, MRAs are excruciating.
