    Walking as a woman in NYC

    Thank you Prospero for your very rewarding knowledge on the matter with supporting facts. I still do not believe that a "Rape Culture" exists, and feel it should be changed to something along the lines of a "blindly see" culture, as many issues are seen but given a blind eye to so as to be...

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    I want to take this moment to clarify that I do believe that there are privileges in place, both positive and negative, for every gender and color. Misogyny and misandry are real. However, I still don't see how rape culture is a thing when we as a whole completely despise the notion, with...

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    Kaeb, in all honesty, I would very much enjoy if you did so. I would think at least you and I could have something that could closely resemble a civil debate, sharing our point of views in such a way that maybe I can come to see some of your side, and vice versa. That's all I'm asking, really --...

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    After my deliberate gauging of the many individuals of this site on their mannerisms through this topic over several days, I have something to say that has taken me a couple days' time to work out... insult me if you want, but unless you present an argument backed by enough evidence to knock my...

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    Ahhh, that does open my eyes, indeed. Thank you. To another question. Right-minded folk will, obviously, do what they can to help a fellow human being without compromising themselves, be it helping fight for the rights and such that are deserved, and be respectful. But what of the...

    I don't know what it looks like.

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    Thank you, Bee. Wasn't that fun? Still, those were the same definitions I got and they still do not make sense to me. If such a thing exists, why does it? I don't agree with it! Everyone should have the same opportunities and such, in my eyes. Also, just because I say, "where I come from," a...

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    Please quote for me where I said it isn't a big deal because of where I come from? Unless my memory is failing me horribly, I stated that it is a big issue, but not the only big issue our world faces, and not a big issue widely faced in my hometown that I believe the rest of the world should be...

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    That's the thing though, Kaeb. I do feel sorry for those less fortunate, and wish I could do what I can to make the world a better place for everyone. But I'm not going to feel more sorry for a woman just because she's a woman. Until such time I become good acquaintances with a woman (or man, as...

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    I already conceded to everyone's points, but no one commands respect from me, male or female. I never once said women owed me anything. I never once said I wanted to **** any girl I catcalled (which was exclusively a loud "OW", then back to my business). I also never said I call any of them...

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    I see your points, and concede my (unwillingly) narrow perspective. Like I said, a LOT of issues that I've come to see after living in the city are new to me, and still try to understand. Just want to pick out this little section. I know not of what it's like to be catcalled day in and day...

    Please, do tell how it is. From a literal and legal standpoint, everything is accurate.

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    I'd like to point out that this is accurate if we're comparing a guy born through a rich family and a woman of middle class. Otherwise, such a statement is untrue, at least where I come from.

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    None of what I said was a joke. To be fair, I was not of sober mind to coherently present a logical argument, but basically what I said I will stand by. So here we go, sober of mind. First off, just a few official definitions: Catcall: -Noun: a shrill whistle or shout of disapproval...

    Walking as a woman in NYC

    That's not harassment. That's catcalling. There's a difference between the two. If you're very pretty on the eyes, regardless of gender, you are going to get catcalled, and nothing is going to stop it even with the loudest of bitching. Gods forbid if somebody glances at another for being easy on...

    I sent you a PM, the sooner you get back to me, that would be great.

    Raiding Improcco

    Power cells... check. Heter valve primed... check. XCiter is good, actuating module green, and barrel nice and clean. Ajjax mentally checked the blaster that Aran was kind enough to loan again and again, losing himself in the intense music pounding in his ears. Satisfied, he slung the weapon on...

    Frey Greyhound

    Sometimes I wrap myself up in one of those and bounce around in a foam room singing, "You Are My Sunshine."

    A Discrete Meeting

    The past couple days had been somewhat uneventful for Ajjacsevge. An almost overwhelming quiet, broken from time to time with some laughter during a game of cards and some small talk between him and Bardan, filled Ajjax's mind. Ajjax played cards with Bardan and Voth for some time after Lee Ru...

    Granted, but they don't appear until my deathbed. I wish for wookiee cookies.
