I love women, but WHY are they allowed to post on this site?

[LostAndConfused]

Penkitten I really don't think this thread was directed towards you.

It was directed towards another female on this forum.

 

[penkitten]

i understand that it was not directed to me, but i am just not ready for this year's annual flame war to begin.
there are so many other things we can be doing with our time is all i was really saying.

 

[Aboleo]

there are so many other things we can be doing with our time...

...and a woman says the smartest thing so far...


I swear, some of you guys sound just like the male equivalent to a femme-nazi. It's a regular 'man-wh0re' matrix you've got going on here. Quit the f*cking b!tching about trivial bullsh!t. Some of us happen to actually like having women around for their input.

 

[MikeYikes122]

Here is an idea AFC Savior. Ignore the posters you don't like and don't read what they have to say. Also, don't waste your time starting threads about people who bother you. This is often how I deal with you and it normally works well on you.

 

[KarmaSutra]

The more intelligent among us recognize that it is folly to elicit "advice and perspective" (as you put it) from atypical females who do not accurately represent the female perspective at large.

I can't think of a way to simplify it any further for you. Chew on it for a while and the light bulb might go off.

What? Because you have a few more decades under your belt you have an omniscient perspective of women? From what I've read thus far it's quite the contrary. Your ignorance is tantamount to insolence. You care for your own and won't tolerate another. How's your light bulb?

At the very least, listening, to all points of view gives one a much wider range of perspective than censoring those views, especially those you oppose.

I'm done with you.

Now onto my man Obsidian:

You're still impressionable so I'm leaving room for you to see the error your ego is throwing out young brother.

It's not censorship to filter certain arguments out of an organization's internal debate.

It's not? Call is absurd machismo then. It sounds better.

Would it make much sense to let Satanists and Islamists speak at church on Sunday, or to let a strong conservative address the Democratic national convention?

If you want constructive criticism you do, yes. If you want to promote intolerance and bigotry then, no.

Does the Great Pook allow feminists to post hateful comments on his blog? Let's be smart about this.

This gets me everytime. How do any of you know "he" is in fact a "he"? Does your fearless leader share in your misogyny or would "he" have a hard time swallowing this bile as much as mature men do?

SoSuave isn't supposed to be a free society; it's supposed to promote DJism, with certain room for debate about minor variations.

So DJism is an attempt to gain a singular, irrational perspective? If that's true I want no part of it.

 

[LeComteDeMonteCristo]

its not against your whole gender, its the fact that you have NOTHING to take from this site, so why are you here?

Your problem is that you think in terms of what people can take rather than what they can offer.

From what I have seen of penkitten she seems to have an understanding of the ethos of sosuave and certainly provides more value than anything I have seen from you Mr "It feels so good to set a little CVNT straight!!!"

You know what, I'm not opposed to censorship on this site. If anything I feel that the mods are way too lenient. But women are not the problem. People such as the OP are the problem. People who do nothing but spread bitterness and misogyny and pessimism. People such as the OP who create and atmosphere of hatred and negativity. These people for whatever reason are allowed to rack up hundreds of posts on here which just attracts more of their kind who see nothing wrong with endlessly blaming women and the world in general for their problems.

 

[SinJester]

I don't have a problem with it. IF YOU DONT LIKE IT JUST IGNORE THEM. Go play with your toy cars or something instead. The number of women on this site is very small. How is it any different to us looking at cosmo to see how women think and what advice they are giving? Hell if a lady has been on this site for long enough she probably knows as much about DJs as we do and their advice MIGHT even be half-decent. I'm sick of this. It isn't even a big deal.

 

[lookyoung]

To be honest I must say I don't have a problem with penkitten. She for the most part is a contributor to this forum. IQQI is the one I really have a problem with.

However since this is sosuave I think that we should not let any new woman on the forum. Make an exception for penkitten and thats it.

Hey AFC SAVIOR is cool in my book. Yeah he can talk sh1t at times but its all in fun. All around he is someone we can learn from. Even though he may come across as an azzhole at times alot of the sh1t he says is true. I think he is an all around good poster.

I know you're done with me and therefore won't reply, but I want to thank you for the amusing irony. I'm glad that listening to my opposing point of view afforded you a "wider range of perspective". Obviously, if you didn't value discussing opposing views your response would have indicated anger and frustration...

My advice to you, young fellow, is to detach a little from the emotionality of these discussions. I have every confidence that you will be "tolerant" of my helpful advice, for you are a man who practices what he preaches, right?

 

[KarmaSutra]

Intolerance of other's opinions pisses me off.

I'm not a robot.

SinJester,
My point is that for the most part, a woman who has some kind of motivation to hang around the DJ forum is not going to present a true representation of how women think (or shall I say, operate), in general.

I want my research to be accurate. Therefore, I look for true representations of whatever it is I'm studying. The tiny handful of women who are on this site are going to represent just what they are - women who are seeking attention (except, perhaps, for one who I mentioned above).

We've got to get past these silly labels - "misogynists", "haters", etc. and just realize that some of us are simply pointing out that you are not going to find an accurate cross-section of average women on this site. It's as simple as that. It has nothing to do with hate and misogyny.

Finally, I have noticed over the years that most of the women here become more and more abusive to you guys as time goes on. And it's amazing how some of the guys here just take it and beg for more. That's the part that is very painful for me to watch.

I'm having difficulty understanding your reasoning. Are you not displaying intense intolerance of my and others' opinions on this subject?

 

[LeComteDeMonteCristo]

it's supposed to promote DJism

But on a more serious note, people have really got to stop using this term.

 

[KarmaSutra]

An infant can understand what I'm saying. I appreciate yours and everyone else's conflicting opinions and points of view.

Does it's ignorance still get to me, yes it does. Am I hypocritical about it?

Fvck no.

 

[SinJester]

Sun Tzu, good argument and I concur. However if that is the case then just ignore them. The Internet is a free place, everyone has a right to be here.

What I was trying to say is that if women have a good understand of a DJ then if they offer advice on how to be a DJ it could be fine, I'm not talking about the offering advice on what guys should do to THEM. Ya dig?

 

[lookyoung]

that iggi thread made me post this by the way

by by the way, sorry i couldnt meet up while in chicago, family tied me up

by by by the way, i notice you got a thread on this going already......looks like real men think alike

lol don't worry about it maybe next time.You remind me of myself 7 years ago.

 

[ketostix]

I do think without mentioning names there's some women on here who do try to stir up controversy and basically mock DJ tactics. There's a few male posters that do that as well, that is if they're really males, I have my doubts. My point is while women's advice isn't useful generally and should be taken with a grain of salt, I don't think women need to be banned just because they're female. It should be on a case by case basis.

 

[Señor Fingers]

The logic behind this thread is faulty..

If women should not be allowed on this site, then neither should clueless men who behave like women. While we're at it, lets ban all the people who give bad advice or use this place to get the attention they are lacking in their real lives. At this rate we would have what.. like 5 posters left?

This trend has always disturbed me on this forum... women are not enemy spies who come here to sabotage. If you want to talk numbers, there are a lot more men dragging this place down than there are women.
