RB Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 “you fall in love with them, they fall in love with you, and when you criticize them, they cry.” so let's segregate them. http://news.nationalpost.com/news/world/british-nobel-laureate-wants-sex-segregated-science-labs-because-women-cry-when-you-criticize-them. Really?? a poor taste of humor especially when women are already systematically deprived is a real shame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimmy Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Not an attempt at humor-- he contends he was just being honest, though regrets causing offense. Just another example of an old-person acting like an old-person. -k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bush_cheney2004 Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Snoop Dogg ain't that old...and he didn't mean offense either: "I like your camera girl, too. She's thick. Damn." http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/snoop-dogg-s-sexist-comments-about-camerawoman-creepy-and-awkward-1.3102580 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimmy Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Coming from Snoop, that's a tremendous compliment! Completely different from calling for separate-- but equal, no doubt-- labs for female scientists. What's next? Separate-- but equal-- water-fountains for black people? -k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoop Dogg! b-b-but... Jian Ghomeshi! b-b-but... Spa Lady! Really, is this sort of stuff the best you can do? Some withered old idiot made an indefensible suggestion, and you're trying to shift the topic to Snoop Dogg and transgendered washrooms? Why? -k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bush_cheney2004 Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) b-b-but... Snoop Dogg! b-b-but... Jian Ghomeshi! b-b-but... Spa Lady! Really, is this sort of stuff the best you can do? Some withered old idiot made an indefensible suggestion, and you're trying to shift the topic to Snoop Dogg and transgendered washrooms? Why? Because that's how this game is played....no reason to cry foul when it doesn't go your way. He/she can darn well say whatever they want...better ? The Honorable Right Mr. Snoop Dogg said something too....and people freaked out. Edited June 11, 2015 by bush_cheney2004 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimmy Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Sure, he can say whatever he wants, and he can accept the consequences. In Mr Dogg's case, the consequences are that people say "Smooooooth!" and in Mr Hunt's case the consequences are that people say he's a withered old idiot, and he gets to clean out his office at the University College of London. -k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed...but I shouldn't have to work that hard to explain the connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No...that's just more of the same game....anybody who has posted here for a spell knows that. Direct and indirect contraventions with another opinion are not only appropriate, but to be encouraged. If we all agreed and argued in the same way, it would be very boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddy Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 I saw a woman cry yesterday at work. Is this common? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Dog Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 "when you criticize them, they cry.” The irony is that outrage over his statements have essentially proved that he was right. So I guess if he said "Jews control academia along with the rest of the world" and subsequently lost his job, that would also prove he was right?

Canada_First Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Sometimes girls just cry. even for no reason. It's just the way they are. At least in my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Dog Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 You post was nonsense, and unrelated to my post, so there was nothing to rebut. Nope. I took the same logic you used in your post and applied it to a different scenario to show how absurd it was. Unless you can provide an example of someone literally crying over Hunt's remarks, you'r original post on the subject is the same old fatuous nonsense we've all come to expect from you.

Bryan Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Nope. I took the same logic you used in your post and applied it to a different scenario to show how absurd it was. Your logic is lazy and doesn't even come close to correlating to my post in any way. Let me help you. In your example the guy in question would have to have criticized his boss for firing people who criticize him, then he gets fired for making the criticism.

Again: in your example, someone would literally have had to cry for his point to be validated. Your initial point was, and remains, completely lazy and off the mark.
