    such an archaic law, tradition whatever you want to call it.

    to actually arrest women for showing a few too many strands
    of hair is just ridiculous.

    i can't imagine living in such an oppressive society.
    Nice shirt.

    Yup! Rationalize it anyway you like. You just keep telling yourself that.
    NOPE!!!

    For a guy who rarely drinks, I just discovered that rum goes down not too bad with a little orange juice. Better than coke actually.

    I had a bitch of a day today...just ask the nice people who hired me thay can attest. Wireless network nightmare :D

    Happy Tuesday!

    forgive me if I'm incoherent at this point...

    I'd add "means of social control" to this list.

    and...my neighbors are about to hear a drunk guy play drums in a few mins thinking he sounds much better than he really is. :D

    My new drumset look pretty lonely sitting in the corner of my basement all sexy and adulterous....

    Hahaha ... my step-sister caused a traffic accident once, just standing on a corner waiting for a light to change. When the cop questioned that guy as to what the hell he thought he was doing, he apologized, admitted it was all his fault, said it was because he was staring at the blonde.

    Was that you?!!?!

    no... not yet. it does make me feel better about myself though ;)

    Be honest, you believe raping women is wrong, but you think men want to be raped. ;)

    Who could be bothered?

    It's not like it would achieve anything.

    But I figure if you are allowed to spew bile and vent your spleen then I see no reason why I can't.
    NOPE!!!

    I'm interested in how I can acheive bile spewing and spleen venting. They sound interesting. Does this make my system operate better?

    Seriously though I read this thread and yet I am called a nutter to say that women are mistreated in other countries and yet here is a PERFECT example :confused: of what I had meant.. anywho you can't make people see what they don't want to see. Mind you yes men are also targeted by these vice police.. jaysus. I can't even wrap my mind around it ( really though should be no surprise that my small little woman brain can't grasp that :rolleyes: ) Misogyny is alive and well, folks.



    Tara, I really liked your post. Well said.

    i called you a nutter for this bullshit statement:

    "I don't think men are in inferior based on their gender. Perhaps on their actions "

    I'm confused ss. :confused:

    Seriously. What is the problem as you see it with that statement.?

    I think I must be reading it differently to you.
    NOPE!!!

    That wasn't how I meant. Reading now I realize it came across as me saying ALL men are inferior based on their actions and I meant it in certain cases not ALL men. I am NOT anti men... in fact I quite enjoy them but that is hardly the point here is it? ;)
