Can someone give me a pop history here? Are you guys and gals the flotsam and jetsam that floats from the recent schism in American atheism? Are these threads you guys working out all your isshoos?

It's wonderful you guys mention Jon Stewart . Turns out he wouldn't have run with it with guests and things or months, like you guys do.

Warren Farrell - The Myth of Male Power

It's 3hours long, but well worth it. A very thorough look at the shortcomings of feminism.

(maybe someone that knows how could imbed it?)

YAY ERV!!! You are AWESOME!!!..... and shall be first into the cloning chamber. This planet needs more smart and funny! Good luck. :D

Curious as to why more here arn't commenting at Novella's blog? I've commented but you all are way smarter than me and it would be nice to see some of your awesomeness over there. If you have the time and inclination.

John Greg, Somewhere on that A+ forum, that fucker was also complaining about the health care paid by his parents. So, the government provided plan is not good, the one his parents where paying for was not good, being "gifted" was no good, college was no good, his apartment is no good, work hours a...

Justin just made an amazing post on neurologica. I'm always impressed with how civil and articulate he is. :clap:

I was an SGU listener for a very long time, and from what I recall Rebecca received mostly marriage proposals until the whole community of atheists/skeptics was insulted.

oops that should read one of the main reasons (EDIT)

Every single show, TV, radio, podcast or whatever has some kind of formula to it. At least if it's non-fiction and isn't supposed to have a character/story arch. She's on the show because of the snark and because she can be pretty entertaining with it. That's subjective. I've always found Watson to...

@ Nerd of the Redhead is a PhD chemist! Thanks to him, I now know water is an organic molecule. Still can't find that quote. Annoying. It needs framing. He really said that?

I don't see what's so idiotic about that. Surly Amy has no scientific training, so she found it difficult to tell pseudo-science from the real thing. A lot of people have that problem. Least she recognised it and tried to do something about it. I actually listened to a couple of SGUs todays for the...

See, the problem is that women are underrepresented in fields like science and medicine. Clearly, the solution is to belittle women who want to or have been in these fields as just wanting to be one of the guys. That way, everyone is wrong! We can also just ignore the possibility some women, perhap...

Steven Novella chimes in to the Harriet Hall threat with a bit of a slapdown for Rebecca - pointing out that there are many posts on Skepchick blog using exactly the same language that the SJW and Watson are using to criticize Hall.

Awesome, thank you. I should have made more clearly this was purely anecdotal. But the first time I started seeing a lot of non-white people interacting/SHOUTING in the skeptic community was when I started in the 'pit and began following people who were anti-FTB or anti-A+. And the only reason I no...

Because by my count, the amount of complaints of harassment or otherwise at this year's TAM was ... zero. And frankly, the other conven...

Husband has asked me about this video clip. He's seen people talking about how "casually sexist" this is and does not grasp why. I don't either.

Taslima Nasreen on her FfTB soapbox today: All men everywhere are rapists and misogynists. http://freethoughtblogs.com/taslima/2013/01/05/men-are-the-same-everywhere/ ... She lost a lot of credibility when she made fun of a man who was raped by 6 women, or something. http://dailypost.com.ng/2012/07...

@Skep tickle, aaaah I get it now, it was sloppy phrasing on my part, appologies. I really don't understand a lot of the feminist jargon. Thanks for personsplaining it for me.

I dunno about that.... guys with huge cocks want smaller ones/guys with small cocks want big ones, Skinny guys want broader shoulders etc and guys with hairy backs wished they lived in Turkey.... no different with men. It seems to me in a sex-culture fads come and go and some of us just never fit i...

The biggest problem is that women don't realize that men(just like women) have different tastes. Some men like big breasts, some like small breasts(I do!). Some like blondes, some like brunettes, or red heads, some like big booties, some donâ€™t, etc. The point is that no matter what you look like,...
