Anywho, I've been on Paglia's Wikiquote page for the past hour and a half and.....GODDAMN! WHY AM I JUST NOW FINDING OUT ABOUT THIS WOMAN?!

I don't agree with every thing she says, but goddamn! GODDAMN! :clap:
Camille Paglia is pretty awesome. She reminds me of my ma' (sans the lesbian part). That's the way I was brought up. You want something? You ask for it. You think something? You say it in a direct manner. Tears and whining is/was reserved for little kids. Grown women crying? When somebody died. Your fee-fees are hurt? Well, tuff luck.
But then, the women in my life (grandmas, mom, aunts) dealt with really tuff shit. Abandonment, where the next meal was coming from, life threatening diseases, homelessness, etc. The men in my life (dad, grampa, uncles) also dealt with the same shit.
Anywho, one of the things she said that I liked the most was along the lines of "I don't blame men, because I don't fear them". It makes me think of how much I owe to my "latin macho" father than to any of those useless first world feminists. It was my father (the "don't ride alone with boys" type), along with my mother, the ones that made big sacrifices to make sure that I went to engineering school. So, fuck you, smug feminist. You done nothing.

wtf. what is it with this goddamn bullshit implying that we somehow have to compromise on having our goddamned existence recognized. what the fucking hell shit and fuck. this is the single worst, most condescending statement, well...ever.

this isn't compromise. this is you dangling an entire community's goddamn existence above my head just out of reach and commanding us to jump. if you keep doing this, you're going to end up being (figuratively) kicked, and at that point it's going to be up to you whether you want to shape up or throw a tantrum.
Etc. And it's only 1 page so far.
Look at this little nugget from the first response (by a mod no less).
Hi backpackergirl.

Have you also also sought input from genderqueer people? If you're looking for stories of inequity, it seems to me that focusing solely on women would be a shame when there's a group of people who are not only discriminated against but often erased from the discussion entirely.
Oh, you mean like men? Men who are literally excluded from most discussions on the basis of privilege? Men who are apparently the ONLY things on Earth which can be sexist?

Reading more now. This is going to be fun.

Whoa, did I read that right? It said that some people from there used your shit and insulted you on it too?! I would also PUSH THIS. I would MAKE HIM recognize the fact that they did it and he's not on their ass for it!


As for the "part vs full" shit, it sounds like a cop out. "You used all of a piece of Amy's work instead of some of it. That's what makes you an asshole. if you had used SOME of it and insulted her with it, I would have a different opinion" - yeah fucking right. He'd have the same opinion, just without much to back it. No copyright shit, etc. This wasn't about whether or not her work was used in full or part. If I think someone's an asshole for using a piece of someone's work, why would that change if they scraped some off and used part of it? Weird logic there.

Another gem from the A+ thread:
I'm cisgendered... but the whole 'leaving out trans issues in an article about gender inequity' thing leaves me cold. I think if you want to address gender equity as a whole, you have to address trans issues. Otherwise you're erasing trans* people, IMO.
..........Leaving out the trans issues in an article about gender inequity is shameful. Leaving out 50% of the global population is perfectly fine.

I make of that, that Ed is as much of an asshole as PZ, only he prefers it to all be in secret.

One of my favourite expressions, and one I often live by, is:
If you are going to fuck me over, I'm going to make sure everyone sees it.

There is no integrity in keeping secrets for someone who is abusive to you. That's what they hope for, and I'm glad you're not giving it to them.

Personally, I think that picture makes me look meaner than any other picture of me ever. But, then, that was when I was a raving separatist whose goddesses were Dworkin and Solanas. Totally drunk on the vile koolaid.

For some reason, malicious people are less likely to pick on people who tell all. They rely on their victim helping them keep it a secret.

Fuck me - no wonder Ed and Greet had to hand out the begging bowl if they're relying on the likes of Surly "I couldn't afford the lawyers, waah" Amy for ad revenue. And so much for freethought if a blogger isn't allowed to upset an advertiser!

At this rate, Ed will be trying to get out of the red by going out on the streets to sell the Big Issue whilst trying to find a toilet cubicle big enough to take his husky frame so he can have a quiet jostle without being gawped at by horse-faced women.

I know doing that in PhotoShop involves a laborious process of making a image half one color, half the other, saving it as a pattern, bucket tooling it onto the base layer, applying polar coordinates that invariable end up going weird...

I hate Photoshop. And Photoshop hates me right back.
I use Paintshop Pro (on anything I want to make at least passable quality). Not because it's better or anything but just because I grew up using it. I tried Photoshop and, after a cursory glance, stuck my fingers in my ears and shouted "lalalalalallal" until it went away. Way too advanced for me.

Best move I ever made was marrying a photoshop genius. If anyone has specific question that is relayable, lemme know and I can ask her. No guarantees on answers, she's busy and all

Ah, but there's a magic word that makes a mess of that suggestion. Linux.
FreeBSD user here on the Desktop no less. Have a look see at http://www.pcbsd.org
I switched over around the time Windows 8 was about to come out. I figured, if I'm going to rant about how shitty of an operating system it is and how microsoft have lost their minds* then I'd better at least follow through with what I was saying and stop using their products. It's been a mixed experience, but even with some of the headaches I haven't sorted out yet, I like it better. I didn't start off being good with windows, so I don't expect to be good with this right off either.

Oh shit. So that's why I had a "hey, it's THAT guy" moment when I found him. I'm not a gamer, but my son probably has every Tekken/Toshinden game since the PSOne. I didn't know who he was, I just needed a body to hold up Steph's Zardoz head.

In his latest post he writes:
I’m not going to back away from my comments section at all; you are the people I want here, and I affectionately regard you all as my local meatgrinder.

Please don’t change. And when necessary, unleash hell.
It's pretty much a piece in defense of bullying. Except that his commentariat consists of a bunch of inept intellectual eunuchs who are wholly incapable of unleasing hell. Smearing themselves with their own excrement is what tends to happen when they try to do so.

By the way, I use Photoshop CS2, in case anyone is interested.

Why are all the reasons "for" feminism on this "I need feminism" fad completely unrelated to the existence of feminism?

Regarding the Ed/Tfoot exchange, I'm amazed that Ed is so poorly informed about copyright laws and fair use. While it's true that considerations are taken regarding partial or full use, it's not alone a deciding factor, and it's not the one which is the most important. In the case of Amy and her copyrighted pictures being used in other blogs, using them without her permission would almost certainly be a case of fair use.

For Ed to be this uninformed on copyright-laws is actually pretty bad, this is stuff you have to at least know the basics of if you're going to run a blogging network. Copyright issues are bound to pop up, and muck it up to bad and you can find yourself in some pretty bad legal situations.

Same thing with Amy btw, she's an "artist" that seem to have no qualms borrowing pop culture images, and she seems utterly clueless to what's allowed and what's not ("wha wha Vacula is making money of my work without my permission!!! ....... Oh what a nice angry bird image, I can print this out and make a necklace of it!")

what Ed said in the Tfoot exchange is perfectly clear, and what we all know to be the case anyways. "Dont fuck with me posse."
I think this is to Eds credit really - he isnt making much effort to hide what he is actually saying.
Im really not sure how you can read that and come away thinking his misunderstanding of copyright law has F all to do with it - or am I being stoopid?

Does being a woman affect your car insurance costs in your country? They banned that in the EU recently on the grounds of discrimination. Feminists weren't happy.

I would love to be able to laugh at that, but It is far too close to being (as franc would say) The Banality of Evil

The US court system is already 3/4 of the way there.

Men who apologise for and make derogatory comments about their gender while exhibiting master/slave level masochistic self-hatred, are already applauded by a majority of western society.

We are headed to a place where the quote above is the standard thought process.



I find that to be intensely frightening.
There's the quote that's a fine candidate for the reductio ad absurdum of modern feminism.
Whenever I start to think we're not so much beating up a retarded kid as pulling over the entire short bus at gunpoint in order to climb on board and get get down to business, I'll bring that quote to mind.
It's such a beautiful, geometrically perfect combination of the totalitarian and the solipsistic.
I read it and my first thought is of the words of that great philosopher, Al Bundy; "Let's Rock".

Wha...? How does having a skin-mitten determines where you go or how you get there?
Let's hope getting there doesn't involve a lot of stairs.

I'm sure having a vagina doesn't impede her getting to Macdonalds

Here's a video about Valenti. Last year (or the year before?) she was promoting the removal the burden of proof required in rape cases. She wants all rape claims to be accepted with no proof required. In the video below, when John says she wants women killed, what he means (from an older video of his that I can't now find), is that when threatened by a woman saying she'll cry rape (as blackmail, or as revenge for something else, or in anger at something else he did), some men, if they know they'll be imprisoned without any fair trial, might decide to kill the woman instead of letting her go on to ruin his life and also to prevent getting raped for real in prison.

Ugh... I remember that video, and I remember reading the article on AVfM. The part that says that anyone with a Y-chromosome should feel afraid of such a change to the law is spot on. Fuck yeah I'd be afraid of something like that! [Not that rape shield isn't already some bullshit leaning in that direction. Fuck you Johann the Cabbie.]

Some vindictive bitch decides I need to sweat and I don't even get the presumption of innocence?

"So don't make women feel vindictive towards you!"

Ha! Haha! HahahahaHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x17/ ... /rofl2.gif

How can anyone make anyone feel anything? This is the core of all this bullshit IMO. Nobody else is responsible for our feelings.

This is exactly why I DON'T need feminism. Because having a vagina doesn't determine who I am. Feminists would have me worshipping it and identifying myself as a women before any other title. Harriet Hall gets it. I'm a skeptic like anyone else, I don't need to be a woman skeptic, or worse "skepchick."

Ahh...Memories. T-shirt-gate. Probably my favourite moment of all the drama in 2012.

Laden's impending breakdown is entertaining and all but it's marred by the presence of Laden. Becky's talk at Skepticon was more fail than funny but T-shirt gate had it all: Feminist over-reaction, tears, tantrums, witch hunt, hypocrisy, backtracking, lying, humiliation, mass-bans and maximum hilarity.
The baboons have 3 days to top it. I doubt it's gonna happen.
T-shirt-gate is where I fell off the Baboon bandwagon. A T-shirt that says, "I feel safe and welcome at TAM" is fucking harassment and grounds to get someone booted? And not just someone but a veteran skeptic and first wave feminist. Are you fucking kidding me? Are you fucking shitting me? Are you insane?

Why are all the reasons "for" feminism on this "I need feminism" fad completely unrelated to the existence of feminism?

"I need feminism because clit isn't a bad word"? Um....Ok.
Damn, she is hungry for it, too, isn't she. That look on her face... Uuggh.

It also shows the level of hypocrisy to which they are willing to sink.

"If you don't want men to beat you up, don't make them feel vindictive towards you, girl!"

How does that sound, Valenti? don't like it?
Well, it's exactly the same thing you are saying.

And they are the ones who cry about victim blaming.

While it's true that considerations are taken regarding partial or full use, it's not alone a deciding factor, and it's not the one which is the most important. In the case of Amy and her copyrighted pictures being used in other blogs, using them without her permission would almost certainly be a case of fair use.

For Ed to be this uninformed on copyright-laws is actually pretty bad, this is stuff you have to at least know the basics of if you're going to run a blogging network. Copyright issues are bound to pop up, and muck it up to bad and you can find yourself in some pretty bad legal situations.

Same thing with Amy btw, she's an "artist" that seem to have no qualms borrowing pop culture images, and she seems utterly clueless to what's allowed and what's not ("wha wha Vacula is making money of my work without my permission!!! ....... Oh what a nice angry bird image, I can print this out and make a necklace of it!")
What struck me was Brayton claiming to come from a background of journalists and then quickly breaking down the wall between advertising and editorial.

This has long been noted about blogs, but rarely has it been so succinctly demonstrated as to find someone saying in one breath, I AM JOURNALIST and in the next, DON'T PISS OF ADVERTISER, WE LOSE MONEY.

Any respect I ever could have for this guy just flushed away with my morning dump.

Can I just get a head count from radfems who would freak the fuck out if this were a picture of a man, same look on his face, saying that "penis" isn't a bad word? I've been told they're nothing more than "tools of rape."

Since when was clit a bad word?


And wtf with Ophelia I'd have to be half her age and I'm too old to give a fuck if someone made a parody account of me on twitter. And to call it torture???

you can't say she doesn't ooze charm.

Same. I'd like to see A+ finally die just for the gratification but I'd be sad in the long term.
That's how I think of A+ and FtB too - one little pen where you can see just who's in the cult and who isn't. If they all gather there, you don't have to sort them out from other places.
