• According to the church, babies are without sin. If they die at birth, they go straight to heaven.
• Abortion was illegal at the time.
• Contraception was not widely available at the time, heavily discouraged by the church, and was still very primitive and hit-and-miss.
• There were far more unwed mothers having babies than couples who couldn’t have children, but wanted them.

1+1=2.

And here you are, still treating women as a monolith despite noting your wife doesn’t act that way

So engaging with women for who they are, instead of what they are, is somehow “treating them like a monolith”?

Strange, that. Especially since women have been screaming at men for literal decades now to “don’t treat us like objects!! Don’t objectify us!!1!”

And yet. Here I am not treating them as a monolith by ignoring their gender and interacting with them as I would anyone else, irrespective of gender.

You have some very strange pro-objectification-of-women ideas.

You literally implied that women fighting for the right to be included everywhere. Was about supremacy. That feminism is about supremacy. Your own words. Read your previous post. Perhaps you misspoke. But I don't think so. And neither did most of the other people reading.

This is borderline sealioning, an explicit trolling act.

But there is a chance that your bleeding ignorance might be genuine. So I’ll bite.

The problem is that women are forcing their way into every man’s space, and preventing men from having a space of their own under cries of “misogyny”, while simultaneously fighting to keep their own spaces as women-only.

That isn’t “equality” in any shape or form. That’s gender supremacy.

A perfect example is the Girl Guides of America. Right when the lawsuit against the Boy Scouts had wrapped up and forced them to include girls, the president of the Girl Scouts admitted in private and off the record that she would rather see the entire organization shuttered permanently than allow a single boy admittance.

The same goes for shelters of all kinds, particularly those for Domestic Violence. About 70% of all non-reciprocal DV (only one person doing the hitting) is women beating up men. But of the 2,481 DV shelters in America, only TWO are for men. Nearly all the ones for women are partially to fully publicly funded, but men’s shelters are 100% privately funded because public funding is politically radioactive - the moment any politician tries to support male victims, they get painted as “violently misogynistic” by women’s groups and fail to get re-elected. Most women’s groups also refuse to discuss male victims of DV because to do so is to lead credence to the fact that they even exist.

So yes. Feminism has nothing to do with equality anymore. Feminism is straight-up gender supremacy, full stop.

It’s why I, as someone fighting for true equality, call myself an egalitarianist. I see any man being called “feminist” as nothing more than a pejorative; a mark of anti-equality shame.

38% of people hate their communities, and want everyone but the wealthy to suffer for the crime of being poor.

A fair proportion of our population have been absolutely hoodwinked and brainwashed by the snake-oil promises of conservatism and capitalism, both of which serve only the wealthiest 1%.

Any and all transmission of either 2FA or login links over either SMS or eMail should be made completely illegal. Neither distribution method is secure to any degree.

Similarly, login confirmation or pseudo-2FA through a single vendor-owned app should also be made illegal. People should be able to use the 2FA app of their choice to provide one-time codes.

For the second paragraph, an ideal example would be Telus, a Canadian ISP. The only way to use 2FA is to use THEIR app. Well, what if I don’t want their app on my phone? Too bad, so sad, it’s their only way of providing 2FA. They’ve reinvented security, likely with plenty of flaws and pitfalls that wouldn’t exist with a public 2FA service.

people on the left have ethical concerns about plagiarism, and don’t trust half-baked technology. They also value quality over quantity.

This is an answer that resonates with me because it feels so correct.

The amount of gratuitous hallucinations that AI produces is nuts. It takes me more time to refactor the stuff it produces than to just build it correctly in the first place.

At the same time, I have reason to believe that AI’s hallucinations arise out of how it’s been shackled - AI medical imaging diagnostics produce almost no hallucinations because AI is not shackled to produce an answer - but still. It’s simply not reliable, and the Ouroboros Effect is starting to accelerate…

Claiming that men/boys need to be separated because "they can't control themselves"

Where did I say anything even remotely like this? Point it out. Quote it.

But you can’t, because I didn’t.

Quit being intellectually bankrupt - quit putting words into my mouth.

Men’s spaces is what allows men and boys to open up in ways they instinctively and unconsciously prevent themselves from doing when women are around. Males have an autonomic response around women that causes them to be more closed off, more resistant to criticism, and far less likely to demonstrate vulnerability to other men.

Men’s spaces are what allow them to better learn from other men in a space that allows them to better learn more open and accepting.

It has nothing to do with your vacuous and thought-terminating “incel” bullshit.

How noble of you to modulate your bigotry

Imagine being so insecure that you see bigotry where there is absolutely none.

It’s called “personal preference”. You know, that one thing women demand to have respected when they possess it themselves, but who absolutely eviscerate men who show any shred of it.

“Papers, please” - just like Soviet Russia and the other Soviet-bloc countries.

They’re referring to beer that is limited to 3.2% alcohol by volume.

Holy shit, it’s a real thing.

Up here in Canada, you’d have to get a Radler to get anything 4% and under. I don’t think I’ve ever had a normal beer under 5.5%, and some of our beers go clear up to 7-8%. And I’m not even a drinker - I have maybe a single drink a week, and typically go months between drinks.

I mean, sure, you can get the dealcoholized/0.5% stuff, but that’s like sex on a boat.

Oh, this is awesome. Someone needs to truck in extra supplies of solvent-resistant hot pink spray paint.

That would be gay AF to see some of these brownshirts all pink’ed up.
