What's the pronoun game?
saying a cheeseburger is not a hamburger is like saying a sycamore is not a tree.
And...it is not sexist to say a woman is human...I think you need a nap. You don't make sense when you are lacking sleep...are you cramming for finals yet?
1] never said you were sexist
2] never said a woman was not human
3] how does being human take a woman down a notch?
As far as sexism and liberation issue go though, I believe it is the right of each person to determine how they will be designated and never ever the purview of another to make these determinations for them. So...if as a woman I am fine with the label 'human' instead of being threatened by so called degenderization, it is indeed quite liberating to be above such rigid and politically correct agendas which are designed to tell a public who are too uninformed to make these qualifications for themselves, what they should be thinking and feeling all for the sole purpose of adding just one more person to the social sheep herd. Baaaaaaa!
I am woman, hear me roar. Yes indeed, do you even know who Helen Reddy is?
But above all, I am human. Never let it be said that I allowed ANYONE to take my humanity away...especially because it offended some movement's idea of what my identity should be.
Cram is one way to put it, but more pertinetly, I wish not to keep up a tanget that has nothing to do with the thread too much. It's bad form ya know.
And the pronoun game is when a character does not specify exactly who they mean, wasting often precious time by making the other characters ask who they mean instead of just telling the other characters from the get-go. Like in the series when they use "him" instead of just saying Madara, if you need a comparison.
The cinema sins parody was not intended to actually use anything that you actually said. The joke... Ah nevermind, the creep has found the bottom of my sheets again. I'll have to say yay women and argue later that a prostitute would probably prefer to be called a prostitute over a whore, since he/she would likely know that whore has a far more negative (and less profitable) connotation. Political correctness is not the only reason I would rather someone just call a woman a woman and a cheeesburger a cheeseburger. There is less confusion, nevermind liberation style "free to call it whatevs". If everyone spoke at least a similar way, there would be far less confusion and misunderstanding in the world.
The Naruto Series is united in while by this one facker who says the same thing over and over again in pretty much the same way. It would have been far more difficult for all the talk no jutsu, especially in part II, had each of the great nations had their own unique language, or dialect even.
I apologize, we may continue this in spam, or put it in the OOC section of the forum. Do we have an OOC section and an IC section on the forum? Or is it all kind of OOC? The site using such differences seems somewhat like an excuse for tabbing village boards, or for posting inflammatory material in the OOC and not clogging up the IC with it, which is still kind of wrong in the grand scheme of things.
Post concluded.
