"Lest We Forget", by Clair MacDougallhttp://www.feminista.com/issues/article.php?type=essay&number=5&v=6&n=1
MacDougall writes, "On November 11 the silence of Remembrance Day was
broken by the screams of a woman named Reta Kaur, wailing 'War is
murder, war is murder of women, children and men'. The message quickly
silenced by the mainstream media, and Ruxton's bigoted comment 'go
back to where you came from you old hag.' Who is Reta Kaur, was their
some sanity in her screams? Why did a grossly sexist comment by a
veteran, receive more attention that her desperate plea to end the
murder of women, children and civilians through war? Anti-Iraq war
campaigners face the challenge of dismembering patriarchal notions of
the 'warrior hero,' that have prevailed for thousands of years. The
romanticism of war is far from dead, nor is the bloody reality."She has a point here, but she seems to lack awareness of how it must
strike men when they read and repeatedly that the primary victims of
war are women and children. Some men on menweb.org wrote an article
called "The Invisibility of Men Who Die in War".http://www.menweb.org/throop/media/commentary/wardead.html
Their article never progresses its critique to the point of an
outright critique of war culture or its history and causes. For me, it
lacks explanatory depth. It does have a point, though. It is an
oft-made point, ever since Warren Farrell's book The Myth of Male
Power. It is a good point as far as it goes, but it stops right there
and goes no further. Men in the men's movement have still not freed
their minds enough to challenge and question their own toxic,
patriarchal traditions of which they are the victims, still less have
they taken responsibility to organize and do anything about it. Of
course, in our current cultural climate, it would be a sure public
relations flop for them to critique war, when they are still trying to
get family court issues addressed. This gives them enough of a public
relations battle.

You are an odd man, Sage. You won't let that rile you up, but you'll trounce something as silly as somthor posts.
Somthor's an idiot, and needs crushing. That article won't keep returning to spam the boards with stupidity if left on its own. That article hasn't told the entire EC community that it exists only as a plaything for it. That article hasn't told all of EC that we're not worth the bother of making sense, or of putting minimal effort into coherence.

Actually the link in the comment is to the article for that site, the actual post is from this yahoo forum that pretends to be about "progressive gender issues." Supposedly they aren't feminists, but about true equality about gender issues.

Somthor had this to say about Pirotess:
why, its a statement of fact. Bloodsage is doomed to failure in his attempts to make me want to leave. He can not insult me enough nor shame me enough to make that happen. Sooner or latter he will accept this or if he doesnt, well hehehe I guess that means he is obsessed with me which is nice becuse a dad should be conserned about his wayward son.
Dad? Son?

I think even that would have spawned more inteligence than we normally see from Somthor.

From the book of Abbikat, chapter 3, verse 16:
Have you ever noticed that it's always the people with some kind of mental-disabilty and/or self-esteem problem that are the ones who prolong jokes (that weren't even remotely amusing in the first place) well past the use-by dates??
80% of the board does that. Are you saying 80% of the board has some kind of mental disability or self-esteem problem?
Oh wait....

The difference is that the 80% of the board that overplays a joke for an extended period still manages to make it at least remotely amusing whilst doing so..
Somthor just makes Baby Jesus cry..

B) I don't know where the daddy Bloodsage thing came from, but it doesn't make sense at all. It's more freaky than anything.
C) I would say that 80% of the boards has one mental problem or another.

B) I made a comment once that Bloodsage reminded me of my father since then I have realized he is actualy is my father and I was jsut deluded in his faked death. Poppa sage tried to distance me from him but thank the gods I have found him yet again.
sigh I love daddy sage

Somthor was listening to Cher while typing:
thus he lacks the ability. an irrestible force jsut met a unmoveable object. (least in the context of what I have been saying)
That's impossible.
Consider this: If you have an irresistable force, then there is no possible situation to have an unmovable object. And vice versa.
You fail.
And you are certainly not an unmovable object.
you know what would be cool? if I had a title that said BS's bastich son. hehehe yep, well I'd think it was cool im sure others wouldnt but then you know how THEY are.

No, that's not something to be proud of.
God help your (alledged) wife and children. Living with a total freakazoid like you is not anything I would wish on my worst enemy.
Simply put, if you were a woman, I wouldn't fuck you with a stolen dick.
