and support these dudebros in denying women's rights. It crosses all lines.

It is so indoctrinated and ingrained in the very fiber of society.

Almost whole cloth, as if, we need to weave a new bolt of fabric from a thread of a different kind.

yes there are women that support these men, as they degrade, try to dominate, control, are abusive toward women.

and there is a certain abusiveness even coming from women.

but what cfl did is a mans issue. he uses womens sexuality to TRY... the operative word, try to control adn dominate women. that... is men. yes from patriarchy whcih all of us participate in.

this would tie into the threads recently using womens sexuality to control. be it prude or slut. virgin or whore. it is all the same.

that was cfl.

that is what i say is a mans issue. and the women are allies.

and he will be able to do it for a while. and we will all do the same shit.

i do not put a lot of effort and time into getting someone kicked off. the first months told me it was not a productive effort for me. regardless of the infractions. i have a man that started OPs about me, saying my uterus was old, shriveled and could not possibly birth two boys or some such shit. throwing cum around all over one thread.

and i believe if i remember correctly, he sent a semi threatening pm that had me wary for a handful of days.

to the point of saying, i can get behind the "stand your ground" position. and no. i did not bother to alert on the pm. it is clear to me, that it does not matter much.

and again.

we are the problem.

It is absolutely WHY you should alert on PMs. Do not engage the trolls. If and When this Shithead comes back, we will have a case made against him in advance.

I realize that Admin have been Less Than Supportive of Women's (and consequently Human) Rights but, with the election season breathing down their necks and so many women's names being bandied about as contenders for the Democratic Nominee, DU3 will have to get on board or, be left behind. It really is that simple.

Hillary Clinton
Elizabeth Warren
Wendy Davis
Kay Hagan

to name just a few on national and state level.

The day I am convinced that Admin think WE are the problem is the day I quit DU3.
god help me with my addiction, I will go cold turkey on this place.

You didn't say *some* women support these men. I am highly offended and can not support you anymore. (stomps foot) I do not support that type of man and because you did not say some, you obviously mean me, personally! I am poutraged and throwing a fit over the slight. How dare you? If you respond to this post, I will alert in hopes of getting a jury that will get you closer to a mandatory vacation. There, you have been told.

Obvious with a touch of they are so obvious snark.

Unfortunately when someone slips by MIRT (as this one did), all we can do is make the case to a higher power and that usually works, although it does take some time.

Hope you are well.

we get the hide.

we get kicked off a democratic progressive board.
