Honey, go research the concept of irony. Maybe you won't base that on the entire being of women.
Best of luck to you and that education of yours.
Thanks, at least my education will be correct.
This has absolutely nothing to do with my views though. I was simply making a comparison between animal instincts and human instincts, and h… moreow they're incredibly similar in foundation. Who knew that a logical comparison of all things would hurt someone's feelings.
Again with the patronizing pet names.Very original. Ok. You don't even seem to realize how confused you are about this. Let's resume the discussion at a later date, it could be a lot of fun if you don't become emotionally invested.

It's almost as if we've shown in the last 3000 years that we're much more than animals
To suggest that our attraction foundation is still based on things that we have shown are not absolute is ridiculous.
Society affects so much: hairy bodies 'should' be attractive, but many women, if not most, from polls, disapprove of them and want their partners to be clean shaven.
The 'ideal' of female beauty also looks far different now that it did 200 years ago. Human sexual attraction changes often, and thus there's not one ideal or correct way of being attracted to something.

So that's why you're so upset. You could have saved us both a lot of trouble and just said so right at the get go. Now I know for a fact that you're thinking with your feelings.

Lmao, go reread what you just wrote and try and figure out why I'm laughing. lololololol
I'll gladly put emotion into my words when someone decides to be sexist. If you think I'm taking this too far, go talk to the nice, feminist community of tumblr. They'll gladly take on from there.

The post had nothing to do with sexism or Feminism. The fact that you two are getting so upset about it, and creating issue where there is none only proves my point. You're getting too emotional. Think about it logically.
It's quite clear that you were upset from the minute you replied to me, even more so now. It's common knowledge that when someone is pissed off, or doesn't know how to respond in a civil manner that they start to claim they're "loling" all over the place in a desperate and sad attempt to make themselves look superior. Either that, or they're a child and don't possess the skills to conduct a proper discussion. Look, we're clearly not only on different pages, but completely different books. I'm not interested in fighting with you over something that isn't even in my post.:/

Hold on- Your sexist comments are only offensive to me? You insulted your own gender, yet you say only I'M offended?
Where the fuck is your logic, seriously?

Well, seeing as you've been commenting only to Infinite, and not to me in a civil response to my points, it sure does seem like it's emotionally fueled. Again, I said that if we were to function purely on instinct, and nothing more, this is the type of man we would be naturally attracted to. I believe that though we don't operate only on instinct, that the core elements of what females look for in a mate still hold value for many whether they're aware of it or not. I then say that this observation is excluding personal preference, but when personal preference comes into play, which it always does, that it changes what one values and looks for in a man, and that's perfectly alright. It has nothing to do with either sexism or Feminism.
I can't speak for infinite, but I'm certainly not being too emotional. I'm arguing perfectly logically.
If a post says that it is only natural for a woman to be attracted to one type of man then it very much is to do with sexism and feminism.
My opinion is. Tinni is correct about women being NATURALLY attracted to males who are more dominant, and stronger than others, because of forces BEYOND their conscious control, it's natural instinct. This argument was taken on a VERY personal level though, she wasn't saying
"All women are attracted to Bigby."
She was saying, that it's instinct for FEMALE animals to be attracted to STRONG, DOMINANT male animals.
Now, my OTHER opinion, is the entire argument that sprouted from hers, is completely pointless, and stupid, and that is the reason for my sly "Noms on popcorn comments." Infinite and Flog are blowing things WAAY out of proportion. And when Infinite Dawn said "I'm not even going to read what you said." I slammed my palm into my face as hard as I could and chuckled out loud, because Tinni made a VALID point, and she isn't
"Set in her ways"
Her argument was a FACT about mating patterns.
"It's almost as if we've shown in the past 3000 years that we are much more than animals "
WE ARE FUCKING ANIMALS! That's what we are! We are just SMART ones, but even the SMARTEST of ALL animals cannot control instinct. I was eating popcorn, because I knew one or more people would be butthurt by what she said, even though it was a FACT.
Then, came the sassy
"Heh, we ignored her other points, therefore we are superior to her"
GIFs that you two posted after one of you ADMITTED that you didn't read what she FUCKING TYPED. And NOW you criticize ME for making the statement that all of this bullshit entertains me? Read what she has to say, THEN make valid arguments against it, that's my opinion.

"What is this game rated, anyway? I'll have you know, I saw a rather buff woodsman nearby, and I'm sure he'd come running at the sound of screaming to do anything he can!"
I'm talking about my first post. You have only been replying to Infinite regarding that specific post to encourage Infinite's immature behavior in our conversation, and nothing else. Which makes you just as much of a spectator as that other user you exacted your "holier than thou, people who don't participate are less admirable" comment upon. That is, until Infinite got upset and you both started to falsely accuse me of sexism, which I presume is because you can't refute scientific fact, and had nothing else in your arsenal to counter my argument. Making up false accusations of sexism where there is none doesn't count as a civil response, because that has absolutely nothing to do with my post. Every "logical" argument you've introduced when you finally decided to reply to me is completely irrelevant to the content of my comment. You also are very good at misinterpreting posts. Though where Infinite probably doesn't do it knowingly, I believe you do, since you seem to like to start fights, and didn't even reply to the rest of my comment.:/

Case in point. You're very much emotionally invested, and can't stand it when someone has a different opinion than you. I'm beginning to see where your reputation for being irrational comes from.
I only insinuate that your comprehension skills need work because you failed to understand the point of my post.
You basically said that a woman's natural instinct is to look for a man capable enough to support them, strong, etc. I know exactly what you're saying, I just disagree with it.
It's difficult to hold a conversation with a person who isn't even processing information properly
What in the ever living fuck is wrong with you? Me disagreeing to what you say in your posts is not me being unable to understand it. Here's a huge plot twist: I'm not a complete dumbass, so take that shit somewhere else.
I also recall this exact same thing happening months ago, you completely misinterpreted a post of mine, and then got upset when it was pointed out to you.
I have never spoken to you at all in a context like this. I'm pretty sure I've spoken briefly to you, and none of that caused any negativity. You've got the wrong person.

Okay, but I disagreed with it. She went on to say how I lacked comprehension skills because I told her not to speak for all women. By saying "A woman's natural instinct is blah blah blah" is speaking for all women. If you don't think that's speaking for all women, then there's something wrong about that.
Now, my OTHER opinion
Damn son, how many you got?
is the entire argument that sprouted from hers, is completely pointless, and stupid, and that is the reason for my sly "Noms on popcorn comments." Infinite and Flog are blowing things WAAY out of proportion.
She made a completely sexist comment that a woman's instinct is to look for a certain type of man. Not only is that degrading, but it's like saying that women can't be independant and that they only have one type. I further explained how it has got to do with the environment you grow up in, and now as it comes to my mind, their sexuality. If you think that me getting angry over this is a bad thing, then you need to butt out of this pronto.
And when Infinite Dawn said "I'm not even going to read what you said." I slammed my palm into my face as hard as I could and chuckled out loud, because Tinni made a VALID point
Looks like you didn't read anything at all.
The only reason why I said that is because Flog insisted that the argument was not worth it, and said that they've been there before. I took their word for it, and that's why I said it.
WE ARE FUCKING ANIMALS!
Sure. If that's what you believe in, go ahead. I believe in God, and don't believe that we came from animals. Sure, we have similarities, but need I remind you that we live on the same planet as them. We don't live in trees, we don't shit on the ground, we speak words.
And you need to CHILL on the CAPSLOCK.
"Heh, we ignored her other points, therefore we are superior to her"
No. Completely fucking no. Why are you in this conversation when you're assume blatant and false things? Ignoring her was for my sake. Not to feel "superior". Get that bullshit out of here.
And NOW you criticize ME for making the statement that all of this bullshit entertains me?
Are you completely for fucking real? Are you?!
No one even criticized you. You being ignorant and saying that to obviously get on the nerves of both of us is foolish. It's unneeded. I don't see any purpose it gives you in life other than coming off rude. Don't victimize yourself when you aren't even in this.
