so KEN, your saying being "pro paedophillia or gang rape" is the same as I or FLEX saying "fuck them hoes" or " they are sluts"???
That is SO fucking ridiculous...Not even close my friend, you have got alot to think about if YOU can make that comparison.
The subjects you mentioned are VERY serious topics that affect BOTH sexes in MANY ways in the world. I would never joke about those subjects let alone make a comment about them, I dont know about them at all.
Your making statements that are ridiculous and especially the ones calling me out....You just dont know what your talking about.

Meho: don't you think that it must be seen in its context. What we're talking about is related to violence against women - rape etc.

Ken: I'll repeat: An opinion is an opinion. My opinion is no more valid than someones just because their is pro-paedophilia or something like that (that we, and by this I mean me and you, consider inacceptible in our society). I never pass moral judgements and think that they serve mostly to keep the society going. As this MB is not going to affect society (not on a significant level, anyway), I don't think any beanning or so would be necessary. And anyway I always think that shooting a paedophille that I consider danger for my community is more frutiful than trying to persuade them to reconsider their opinion. I respect their opinion as their attributed right, so my action would be purely pragmatic.

Christ! Iron Lung and Reflex will never understand what we're talking about. Life must be easy when everything is as given - no questioning of the status quo, no critical thinking. Ignorance is bliss and other cliches.

Violence against women is bad as well as violence against men I think. Seeing women as objects is not the same as seeing women as property and that's where the violence stems from, jonesy.

All views are equally vaild? So the views and aims of the Nazis were just as valid as the Jews in the ghettos of Eastern Europe? Or the views of a Holocaust survivor are equal in validity to a Nazi who denys the Holocaust ever happened?

ironlung you are way off the mark-my point if you would care to reread my remarks was that certain comments do not have a place on this mb. like yours, so where should the line be drawn? if your comments are acceptable whats to stop someone posting about paedophillia, gang rape, snuff murders et all?-the lines are incredibly thin my friend. oh and one more thing-if you would care to reread my comments once more-i was certainly not joking about those two examples.

A culture that portrays women as sexual objects gives the rapist little to contemplate before he rapes. His actions are sanctioned.

Jonesy: a culture that prtraits people as property is more how i see it. And, yes, all opinions are equally valid to me. There is no absolute truth unless you believe in god (and I don't think you do) and I base my actions on pragmatical reasons, not on ideologies.

Ken: I will give respect to anybody, incl. women on this board just out of courtesy (a pragmatic choice: I want to be able to discuss things with anybody and that includes reflex (whose opinions i don't like from time to time) and Ironlung). But not just because they're women or something, it's a pragmatic reason, just as it is that I don't automatically punch anyone in the street whose face i don't like. Respecting someone just for being a woman is as ridiculous as putting them down for being a woman. Discrimination anyway. And what's with those caps? Are you mad?
And jonesy: my truth and your truth can be agreed upon if we need to run our society

those who dance and strip... thats hard man... but it is a way the have of earning some money to live...so we must respect their job as any other... besides it must not be very pleasant for them to dance in a sexy way in front of strangers who think they are only a piece of meat.... and they are not.

I totally agree! It's like Freek shows. People thought it was right to close them all down but now the "freeks" cant get jobs so they're out of money. They enjoyed staring in the shows but people shut them because they thought it was degrading the them. The do-gooders did wrong and I think the same could happen to strippers. It's their job. and the work hard for it.

If you research it... its the "freeks" that set up the shows in the first place.
That is the only way they can make money. since they've been closed no one will employ them. it's very sad.

agreed-and besides it just reinforces ignorant views-people with deformaties and learning disabilities are seen as sub standard to the 'norm'. whether its good for those in the show isnt really the point-the consequences stretch further into peoples views of another section of society-imagine having a museam full of black people that people paid to see-assuming all the people got paid well and were happy, its hardly the point is it??
