If thou gazest long into the Pit, the Pit will also gaze into thee

Ive just made three women uncomfortable in OKC Atheists group by challenging their anti-vax/anti-GMO positions. SEXISM!!!! Yeah that was awkward with these 4 absolutely uneducated women up against the entire group. I'm guessing they're all scared mothers??? I'm always surprised (but shouldn't be) b...

I believe military jobs should be equal opportunity no matter the job. However my ex-infantry ex-husband - who believed in women in combat in theory - said that he didn't think there would be a single woman would be able to pass the physical aspects of training for those kinds of front-line jobs. So...

When used as insults terms like "bitch" and "twat" and "cunt" are inseparable from sexism. ... What is hard for me is that in Australia cunt can be a term of affection as in "How 'r' ya goin' you old cunt" No, you are wrong. It is a horribly sexist term. Therefore it could never, ever be a term of ...

More lolz on the A+ "secret forum" discussion. http://atheismplus.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=716&start=1500 The gist: A+ User "Wind" takes umbrage to Ceepolk's remark about "marginalised atheists" with the response that she is "half Indian" (and, I'm assuming, knows all about being a "marginali...

I don't care if guys want to take a piece of skin off their penis, but at least wait until the kid is old enough to decide for himself. Pretty much. Circumcision? Sure, fine, whatever, if that floats your boat. But the individual who owns the genitals should be able to make the choice for themselve...

Personally, I only see the 'women are people too' argument being useful when dealing with religious and pro-life fundamentalists who vehemently deny that women are actually people. Cuz it says in their bible, or koran, that women are not sub-human and good for nothing but shitting out babies. Other...

Opinion: I strongly suspect if the Slymepitters held a convention, we may not get greater numbers, but we'd probably get a greater percentage of women simply because the women here don't seem to be scared shitless of men. Select: 1. Agree 2. Disagree Well, I for one believe in the radical notion th...

Well this is really fucking pissing me off. What is the point of having an atheist prime minister if she sucks religious arse just as much as our more conservative party? Prime Minister Julia Gillard has assured religious groups they will have the ''freedom'' under a new rights bill to discriminate ...

No, I was mocking your shitty analogy, but it seems it went waaaay over your head. Dear muslima: Not getting sex from a specific person - zero bad Not getting oxygen - very bad Not getting sex from the person you're supposedly in a sexual relationship with at least every once in a while- somewhat b...

Very cautiously, I'd like to throw in my two cents to the "sex as obligation" conversation. That "relationship" monogamy shit sounds like a complete pain in the ass. Fixed that for you. If it works for people, hey, best of luck. It's like golf. A lot of people claim to enjoy it but I can't for the ...

I think of it this way: I absolutely have the right to refuse sex every night. He absolutely has the obligation to accept that. But I absolutely fucking have no right to assume he'll stay with me if I never put out. So in a way I have an "obligation" to have sex - if I want a healthy, long-term rela...

I have a different take of course. See above about the young'uns rebellion. However it could simply be that they are genuinely disgusted with slutty behaviour and not at all impressed with things like slutwalks at all. Telling them that they are "bullies" and they are doing it out of "low self-este...

[spoiler] http://i.imgur.com/92emH.png Sorry, but this pic needs reposting. "WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME SOMEONE SLAUGHTERED YOUR FAMILY AND PUT THEM ON A PIZZA[?]" WHAT?! I'm both laughing my ass off and craving some meat-lover's pizza now! :lol: [/spoiler] Jesus fucking Christ... A Radivegafeminist No...

8. You need less than 1/4 of the stuff you think you do. For example, you only need three pairs of jeans: One to wear, one to wash and one just in case. /runs off to cut down her wardrobe to three of each category though all your tips are brilliant, though like Rocko I'm Aussie and squirrels are sa...

The commenter who believes that there are more important things in this world to focus on and women should stop winging. And yet they’ve still taken the time to not only read but write several paragraphs in response to the article. Btw, what's 'winging' and why isn't it a valid argument to encour...

Seconded. I have a theory that though PZ etal underestimate the size of the opposition there is an even bigger crowd out there who are just fed up with the entire argument and want to get back to science, scepticism and creationist bashing. And an even even bigger one who never knew about it or nev...

cunt wrote:Also took a look at Jen McReights twitter. Sick of writing about feminism because she knows too many people who've turned into portlandias feminist bookstore parody.

So she's distancing herself from both atheism and feminism?

100 BILLION women alive on this planet right now who have been raped or beaten eh? Impressive. I'm so sick of these stupid bitches telling me I should be afraid of my own fucking shadow. They demean real, actual rape by turning the slightest glance their way by any man into RAPE!!!11eleventy!!!. Obv...
