Seems like this is the opposite of what's happening in the US, where as I understand it, men lose their houses and money upon divorcing.Recent changes to home-ownership laws have put women at an even greater disadvantage. When couples divorce, the marital property now belongs solely to whomever took out the mortgage. In China, this is almost always the husband or the husband’s parents. This means that even if a woman makes substantial contributions towards the purchase of a house and its mortgage she could be left with nothing on divorcing.
Hong Fincher suggests that this may be what is stirring many women, especially in the cities, to action. 'It has always been the tradition that a son’s parents help him buy a house when he marries. In many instances parents will hand over their life savings to their son because they see it as crucial to buy him a home – but the parents are not doing that for their daughters.
'Women previously thought they had to have a man to take care of them, but I’ve found that many no longer think that way. Because of the change in the law they know that if they do marry a man with a house it doesn’t benefit them, so there’s a growing trend of young women trying to make it on their own.’

The "left over syndrome" is happening on the mainland where the urban hubs are. This includes Hong Kong and many of these women will never have children. Divorce rates in South Korea are pretty close to the US apparently, and the number of "grass eater" men in Japan is expanding.
Like I said earlier, there are going to be some very interesting societal consequences in the next few decades. I find it fascinating to live in the times of so many concurrent X and Y chromosome population replacement events.
Despite all the denials to the contary, demographics are destiny!
For example, current expectation is that the USA will add 100 million people over the next 40 years, and overall whites will become a minority. This process is alreaty complete in the Greater Toronto Area in Canada.
If the horde over at the other place expect they are going to happily preside over the process that they, and people like them have worked so hard to facilitate, I believe they are in for a surprise.
I expect a lot of "pushback" in the years to come, not only from groups and media narratives such as the current ongoing "Chick-fil-A" events but at an individual level such as this one:

Not too weird if she believes that type of new age crap.

http://skepchick.org/2011/12/reddit-mak ... -atheists/
1. Reddit trolls post about how they want to fuck a 15yr old girl up the ass because she posted a pic of herself with Carl Sagan's book
2. Youtube trolls talk about how Watson should be raped because of the elevatorgate video and the subsequent flamewars
3. Elevatorgate itself
4. Ophelia's threat which is not a threat
5. Dr. Hall's t-shirt
6. Parody ceramics
7. Mr X/Dr. Buzzo frequently did not fuck off when people told him to fuck off. Also upskirt camera which turned out not to be upskirt camera. I managed to find this account about his attitude, but it's pretty vague and from a poster who is pretty biased towards Watson-style feminism the little I've read of the jref TAM threads. I believe there's also more descriptions at skepticalabyss.
8. Dr A/Dr Adequate rumored to have forced french kisses on unwilling women in a TAM meeting. Again, could only find rumor-ish second hand accounts in my brief googling. (source 1, source 2). I'm pretty sure I've read a better account somewhere else before on that TAM harassment thread, and that RemieV was one of those victims, but I can't find it through google at the moment. Seems like Dr A was once a popular member of the forums and even married another forumite, almost had a wedding at TAM?
9. Us slimepitters and our inability to "just get it"
Anything else?

Yes, if you look for bad shit, you will find it.
But, if you sort the good shit/bad shit, the good shit is actually the majority. See the top-rated reddit comments for example. Figured that shit out before I went to college. Given that Becky is 32 I think she's a lost cause.
I'll point out, again, that most of the 'trolls' are Omega males that have been brutally bullied by women their whole life. So what the femmies are experiencing on the InterNet is little more than blowback from female privilege.
But I won't say it serves them right. That would be tacky.

Everyman: about working wife and stay at home husband, it's really not that uncommon where I live. We are 50 kms away from the Italian border, I'm half Italian, and the culture there, despite Italian macho clichés, is mostly centered around the "woman of the house". The Mama always has the final word. She's the boss, the head honcho...etc (complete with other Zucker Bros dialogues).

Oh yeah, the sexual harassment that did NOT get reported as a sexual harassment, and Ashley got mad that it was not reported as a sexual harassment, even though she also said that she never told them about the sexual part of it at the time!!! The sexual part was allegedly that the guy asked her for sex repeatedly, not taking no for an answer.

Instead of going to music fests, they go to victim fests that happen to have music. And most of that music is not even music. It's, ugh, political folk music that reminds me of the kind of shit music that children tend to be subjected to. Link is to the festival that I went to 7 (I think) times to, as my annual vacation while in the old cult. It's basically a revival, but instead of for xtians, it's for feminists, esp lesbian separatist ones.franc wrote:Question that's never been asked.

Damn! Should have posted a trigger warning to myself before posting the above paragraph. "wimmin's music" *shudder* Get out of my head, Meg Christian, Holly Near, Alix Dobkin, and you others! Ferron, you can stay because your music does not actually rape my ears, but the rest of you, shoo! scatter! off with you!

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Sorry all, and trigger warning for an video ad for the feminist yearly revival I mentioned above. This hurt me more than it will hurt you. Now then, I must spend the rest of the day recovering. :cry:

That's a sample of the approved wimmins music that us harder core lesfemseparatists listened to in the 80s.

I have to give Holly Near a bit of a break though. She's done some songs for a lot more causes than just feminism. Here's one, where despite the folksy sound, the words are not bad, with an atheist theme (other than a new-agey mention of your 'higher power'):

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
There are good values in all these musical pieces. Lyrics may or may not be part of them. That last one by Near is catchy, and as a non-english speaker, I have the privilege of not listening to the lyrics (although I did, read the subs to be sure, and quite like most of them). Musically speaking, all these are fine. But come on! "Amazon Witches"?

Rw thinks the universe is in the process of becoming concious?
We've got another Leah on our hands, she's figured this allout by herself, by thinking really really hard about it, and since it's her thoughts and feelings on the matter they are aboslutely valid and should be treated with respect according to matt (im trying really hard to be a feminist) dillahunty.
Watson is a fuckwit, is she going through the stageof thinking she's a witch and putting spells on stones? Or moving towards eastern woo, i studied eastern woo for along timeand yes i was a fuckwit, you have to be to come out with statements like that, if she's at that stage of still in need for a spiritual connection to something, and not able to accept that she isn't shit and the universe doesn't know or give a fuck about her, i wouldn't be surprised. Someone with watson's ego could never accept that they mean fuck all.
Note for the fuckwits out there, this is not an expression of hate towards women, this is an expression of contempt for idiocy from a human being. There is a differnce, maybe you will discover it when you step outside of your screwed up ideology.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
My impression of that wombyns music is that the music is merely a vessel or medium for the political message, rather than being about the music as an artform to be developed to an elite level.

I watched a clip on their site and there was not an unshaven pit among them. I don't even known what radical feminism IS any more.Scented Nectar wrote:That's a sample of the approved wimmins music that us harder core lesfemseparatists listened to in the 80s.

Also noticed some Kiwis on there. Doin' us proud. Haha.

Flash Harry
A wee bit of fatherly advice to those amongst you, who seem "pleasure-bent" on exhibiting novel "flashing" images, as were Christmas presents that actually came with batteries.[1]
There are some folk, (myself amongst them), who have a very real medical condition known as photo-phobic epilepsy.
(Not like the unreal and entirely fabricated first and last occurrence of the condition of Transient Prosopagnosia, that Beccy seems to have both invented, contracted, and been cured of in short order.)
But, take it from me, severely flashing images WILL trigger a seizure in a susceptible individual, mit is simply the severity of siezure that is the variable. From a simple "vagueing out at the traffic lights" at one end of the spectrum, to a full-blown Grand-Mal siezure at the other.
Listen. This is no joke. Not an attempt at humour.
No.
This shit really happens to susceptible people, and IT HURTS THEM! (Us)
We have to take at least 3 or 4 days off work, as a result.
Now that you have been made aware of the damage that you are doing through your carefree sport, give a mind to those that you are potentially forcing into a crippling seizure.
If you have never experienced one, then you are lucky.
Ixnay on the lachnayF, OK?
(Yes, we photo-phobics are a minority in the general population, but a majority in the elite geeks. Make of that what you will.)

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
As Menière afflicted as I am, I can only agree with MKG. Nothing is as bad* as some stupid smiley/flash/gif moving around in my eyesight while browsing/reading.
Guys (and gals), don't do that!
*Ok, things can be more bad. Don't RD me!

Menière's disease in in the same league, but no where near in the same acute, versus chronic disabling characteristics as induced seizures.Phil_Giordana_FCD wrote:As Menière afflicted as I am, I can only agree with MKG.
The former is admittedly chronic, but the latter is utterly crippling, in the literal meaning.
Quite literal.
We are quite literally crippled for days.
Can't get out of bed "crippled".
No joke.
Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
@ MKG - Australia looks to be as hot and dry as central Texas. I'm hoping that TS Ernesto heads our way next week ... no joke. Parched and broiling here.
@ Scented Nectar - Your mention of the womyn's music festivals and Holly Near reminded me of my years in the Pacific NW and what a breathlessly sincere ingenue I was about the politics. Coffee came out my nose laughing at the memory. :lol:
Well if horse piccies are to be shared here's one of mine:

That's my Thoroughbred mare at the front left - we were at a polocrosse tournament. Some here might know the sport ... it's an Australian invention, imported to Texas (and other parts of the US) by ex-pats.

Its weird. I travel alone to conferences and hell, I flew to Antarctica-- I pretty much dont even notice other people. I try to be friendly and people are friendly in return (a smile and literally 3 words of English was all I needed in Argentina). She genuinely cannot interact with other humans on a normal level. Its weird.

Re: Periodic Table of Swearing
Yeah, pretty much, I guess. The 'greenery' in the scenery belies just how fucking HOT it was.My daughter eventually melted into a 44 Gallon drum of broiling bore water, and was mightily relieved, despite the non-gradient in Kelvin scales.BarnOwl wrote:@ MKG - Australia looks to be as hot and dry as central Texas.

The greenery in these photos is a puzzle to me. It had not rained for at least 3 months.
