The right on this board has traditionally been your cousins, the GoT trolls. But of curse they been joined by posters like Soul Venom, Jaguar and MMC2.

Nah, eclectic. I think for myself and don't toe a party line. Actually I'm confused about nothing. Throw any issue out there and I know exactly where I stand and can defend my position into the dirt, if need be.
Try to confuse me.

I'll give you an example. If I say I believe society should guarantee a minimum income so everybody is housed and fed, some fool will say "Oh, you're a liberal". And I'll say no, I think gay marriage is a travesty and it should be illegal. Oh, so you're a social conservative. And I'll say no, I think if a cop sees a gay couple having sex on a bus bench they should ignore it and go catch a thief.

Frankly, I think most American political labels are quite meaningless. Conservatives in America are free-market types, which completely contradicts what conservatism means in Europe (where the thinking originates). Louis Hartz argues that all Americans are liberals, whatever they might think they are, and I agree with him. There are no nuances in American classifications. So I don't have a problem with your occupying different positions in different contexts. But some of your specific positions are very weird: such as arguing for Western superiority or for women being intrinsically inferior. Those sound like such dumb redneck positions I can't even take them seriously.

But now you're acting like Sophie who threw a hissy fit without even reading what I'm saying.
I didn't say women are inferior. I said they're physically smaller than men and they are incapacitated much of their lives by pregnancy, child rearing and even menstruation. They even must squat to pee. These are biological impositions on their lives of which men are free. This is the reason why patriarchy rules the world.
And how is Western civilization not superior? The world wouldn't have computers and automobiles and electric lights without it. I'm not saying white people are superior. That would be nonsense. But what European cultures have created far exceeds anything done by any other cultures.
Everything the Chinese have and are using now to compete with us was given to them by us. They created nothing themselves which accounts for their current success. It's an inferior culture.

Can you imagine how many strong women with great DNA were eliminated from the gene pool because a saber tooth tiger snuck up on them from behind?

We're talking about thousands of years of evolution. If it takes a woman 5 seconds to pull up her pants and flee and it takes a man one second to pull up his zipper and flee, over eons that must be taken into account.

I don't think the women facing saber-toothed tigers had to worry too much about pulling up their pants.

Jack, I hope you know much of this is tongue-in-cheek. The squatting to pee was just an attempt at comic relief on my part.
Remember though, that Steinem is using menstruation in the OP to bash men. It seems a rather important matter to her. Honestly as a queer man in a relationship with another man, this is something I know little about.
But I do believe pregnancy and child rearing did hold women back on an evolutionary scale. Sure males used this to subjugate them.

And yes, I read v2/v1/sometimes MovieChat. Stop attacking me on boards where I can't defend myself, coward.
