Texsox Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 (edited) QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Mar 9, 2005 -> 09:13 AM) No it was pretty much the attempted murder rap that got my panties in a bunch. We should probably wait for the dust to settle. I guess since they are allies in this, and she just went through one of the most terrifying situations imaginable. Kidnapped -- I'm gonna die like all the rest Rescued -- I'm gonna live Shot at by the greatest killing machine the world has even seen -- Having someone die while laying on top of you -- I can understand making comments that days, weeks, and months from now, she may wish to reconsider. Hell, people get worked up over smaller issues here and post crap they want to take back later. And this is just a message board.

Soxy Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 QUOTE(Texsox @ Mar 9, 2005 -> 08:36 AM) Which is something that guys are not really sensitized to. In general, we can use slurs like that without a deeper connection and interchangeable. Putting on your Grad school cap, is that cultural? Is that accurate? Uhhhhhh, my grad school caps says let's do a lexical decision test--I'm afraid I never took a social psych class, or anthro. Therefore, I am unqualified to answer your question.

At the very least, using the "ignore" function is a hell of a lot more mature than whining about somebody calling a political figure a "b****."

Queen Prawn, ChiSoxyGirl, and I believe Steff, all weighed in on this. It's more than 1 person, and almost universal among our regular female contributors. I didn't read one lady stand up for calling the journalist a b****. So is it more mature and polite to dismiss their concerns or call them whiney? You decide. I would rather be a gentleman and find another way to describe a woman who I disagree with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather be a gentleman and find another way to describe a woman who I disagree with. I only dismissed one person's concern after said person questioned my maturity. FWIW, the allowance of cussing and the availability of offensive emoticons on this site take away from the "gentlemanly" character that you speak of projecting. In such an environment, I'm rather surprised that the use of the word "b****" caused such an uproar. In fact, one might even call that hypocritical. Just my $0.02.

In such an environment, I'm rather surprised that the use of the word "b****" caused such an uproar. In fact, one might even call that hypocritical. Just my $0.02. Personal choice. There are several words that women find offensive, and should, IMHO, be avoided, especially when someone complains. Does it tell you something when one of the people who voiced up can joke about hot lesbian sex, but finds that word offensive? You may call it hypocritical, I accept it for what it is. An individuals preference to not read a particularly offensive word that is only used to insult females and describe a female dog. Because there are so few things here that people complain about, it would seem easy enough to avoid the one or two. But hey, it's your choice.
