 Ridiculously large knockers are pretty nasty. Completely unpractical. You aren't going to be doing much running, or many sports. You are going to have HORRIBLE back pain, and you just look totally unnatural, fairly freakish. You're dna should not be passed on or it should be modified. posted by volonteshiva |

 volonteshiva: Ridiculously large knockers are pretty nasty. 
I've never seen the fascination for obscenely large (supernatural) jugs. OK, it might have been money in the bank for ›Chesty Morgan‹, but do these women not realise they are little more than "side show freaks" to the majority of the public. posted by Marl64 |

nocturnal_anonymous: And is being a feminist bad? Depends which kind. If your the kind that believes that men and women should be treated with the same respect - Great. However, if you're the kind that thinks;
... Then you are exactly what you fight against. A Sexist. As I've said many times on here, positive discrimination is still discrimination

 i wondered if any guy was going to counter, it took a lot longer into the thread than i though it would Dare i come out with the opinion of men have to do MORE to please women? The things a woman has to do are merely physical in nature, a man has to have the total package. I mean damn everything I do is geared towards women! 
Not just bodily things either, my car, my money, my appartment etc. Of course it's ultimately a decision that I like, but always in the back of my mind I think of how will a potiental mate like it and will it get me noticed by this mate in the first place. posted by The ONEder Man |

 nocturnal_anonymous: Because so many things of women's lives are still done according to men's point of view.
For example, why do women have to wear bras? Why do women have to shave their legs? You may think these are things not worth saying, but think about it. They're certainly not done because of women just feel like it...  Uh, yeah they are. I wear bras because they're more comfortable that way. What with walking and not wanting pain and such o.O And I started shaving mine because I didn't like the hair. Me. Before I knew anyone else did it. And I'll leave them awhile sometimes, sure, but I like skirts and hair = itch. Got anything else? ... posted by bluewolf |

 bluewolf: I wear bras because they're more comfortable that way. What with walking and not wanting pain and such o.O You must have BIG ones than. Walking gives you pain if you don't wear a bra?bluewolf: Before I knew anyone else did it. I'm sorry, but I REALLY REALLY don't quite believe this. What kind of person goes, "Hmm, my legs have hair, maybe I should shave them?" It's like saying, "Hmm, my face is ugly, oh, maybe I'll just cover my face up with white powder and blush, even though I don't know anyone who's done it before."  bluewolf: hair = itch. Only because you shaved them in the first place. posted by nocturnal_anonymous |

I suppose the bra and shaving legs thing weren't really good examples. I could go on and on about political positions though. posted by nocturnal_anonymous |

nocturnal_anonymous: You must have BIG ones than. Walking gives you pain if you don't wear a bra?No but running probably would o.O To be perfectly honest, I haven't tested it much and I don't care to. Quote: I'm sorry, but I REALLY REALLY don't quite believe this. What kind of person goes, "Hmm, my legs have hair, maybe I should shave them?" It's like saying, "Hmm, my face is ugly, oh, maybe I'll just cover my face up with white powder and blush, even though I don't know anyone who's done it before." *sigh* What I meant to say was a friend told me of it but I didn't know it was a done thing. ok? And I was bloody 11, I didn't care about boys! So it had nothing to do with that. edit: at least I think she did. Or not. I'm kinda sure I just started. Quote: Only because you shaved them in the first place. Er, how do you work that one out o.O political positions? if we're talking politics I'm switching off ;( posted by bluewolf |

 Marl64: * That common shivalry and manners are offensive shows of sexism... man, i hate that one! (when my girlfriend gets in one of her "moods") and i open a door for her i get something like, "what? do you think i CANT open a door for myself! that im soo weak and frail that i NEED someone to open the door for me, a MAN! i can take care of myself!" i could go on and on in this thread...just scared to, scared of who might read this, take it the wrong way, blah blah blah. there was something good that came of her feminism though, valentines day SHE paid for our date. haha, i told her, "if you want to break the chains that society has placed on you and me, why don't YOU take ME out for valentines day?" i was joking of course, but she (to prove a point) insisted on taking me out and paying for me and ordering for me opened the doors for me and so on (i should have blown up and said how i could do it for myself, but i didn't). it felt good to be paid for and taken out...for a change. posted by allone |

nocturnal_anonymous: I'm sorry, but I REALLY REALLY don't quite believe this. What kind of person goes, "Hmm, my legs have hair, maybe I should shave them?" Well, it's been known for the last four hundred years at least in most Western countries that ideal beauty is youth. Most nubile women have a tendency to shave or wax legs or arms because it makes them look younger; not just because its a common social trend. As a bloke, I can certainly say I prefer a gal with young looking legs and arms; whether there's an element of paedophilia in all men, only Freud can say o.O Just making a point that it's not definitely a case of "following a trend" ^.^ There are a few things I don't like about feminism. Personally, I dislike the fact that whilst it does a great deal to help women in bad positions, which is good, as a system, it completely ignores areas where men are outclassed by women. Although the activist antics of F4J in protesting the divorce & children rights aren't doing much help, I can't help but agree: there is a strong trend of women who get custody of the children and evade the visitting periods of the fathers with trips and friends visits and so forth, which is grossly unfair in my opinion. There's also some element of irritation on the way maternity leave is dealt with that I have. I do think one thing is silly though: there is more focus recently on trying to get it allowable for women to go topless than there is on getting them equal pay from many feminists. Now, personally, I view gals going topless to be a case of abusing "equality" in the place of "equity": if you grab a gal's chest, you could well get "sexual harassment" charges pressed (pun unintentional); hence, the breasts are definitely a sexual area. Since the vice versa isn't true for men, it seems fair to me, although not equal, that men are allowed to decently go topless, whereas women going topless would be indecent. I certainly think we should consider fairness over differences, rather than trying to eradicate the differences altogether with our social culture, which seems rather overreactive. posted by Nico |

If it isn't too much trouble, do you have any idea where I could read the minutes of that ruling? It seems a little strange, since I equally know of court rulings here (England) which have said that excessive groping, particularly in public and on people unknown to you, was sexual harassment. Then again, legality differs around the world I suppose. posted by Nico |

Nico: If it isn't too much trouble, do you have any idea where I could read the minutes of that ruling? Sorry can't find it. If I remember it correctly the court said "Touching the breasts" is like "Putting an arm around the shoulder". If the touched lady gives the man a slap in the face then she can be charged with assault. But I think this is valid only in the countries where "breast touching" is not explicitally listed in the law as an offense. posted by knn |

Can you remember if it was just "touching the breasts" or groping specifically? I can imagine that attempting to sue someone because their hand was resting slightly on your breast might be viewed as a bit overzealous in defending one's chastity :3 posted by Nico |
