P.S. Now that I've looked at Jack's link, I think that he, Ahmadinejad, and all the other holocaust deniers belong in their own special intellectual category.

And Bugsy's already named it!

Pericles and Vanila...

in truth, I would only make a mild teasing dig to any stranger over such a thing. Hence my 'woman driver' with a smile on my face. I wouldn't even call someone the other term I used, its not my style, but I was juxtaposing what 'might' have been said (accurately, though retard might be a bit strong) and what was said.

Saying something volatile to a bloke, specially one well endowed with testosterone, would be more likely to result in physical conflict, and that would not be nice for anyone. Probably the most I'd do would be to look at the car (with raised eyebrows).. look at mine.. and leave it at that.

Vanilla.. the 'rash' is verbal only.

TRTL questioning the fact that women operate under freedoms and safety guaranteed by men is like suggesting the earth is flat. It's so self evident that I can't be bothered arguing it. Yes, protection from other men, of course.

Our Social status quo has it's roots in tribal power balances, or.. national power balances. That 'is' history.

Boazy: "Saying something volatile to a bloke, specially one well endowed with testosterone, would be more likely to result in physical conflict"

Er, so where does that put the "women are as violent as men" argument?

If I had the capacity, Pericles, I would make a "can you believe this guy?" kind of face at you right now.

Welcome back Bugsy/Brian, I've missed your valuable input. You seem to be still suffering from your 'dumbed-down syndrome'. You waited a long time before jumping in with your half-assed comment.

CJ, correct me if I'm wrong but haven't you, in the past, had a go at anyone who posts anything anti-moslem? If so, how can you now turn against Ahmadinejad - not that you're wrong, he is a cretin - it just seems to go against your grain.

While you wrote that you're no great fan of Islam (or any other religion), islam seems to be the one whose defence you jump to. Also, if you 'object to blind bigotry against anybody', shouldn't you give Ahmadinejad a break and consider that he may be right?

Jack, are you serious? Are you trying to "tease" CJ or do you really not understand what he's been saying all this time?

Anyway, I would have thought you'd like Ahmadinejad - he's a holocaust denier and a poof denier to boot. Thought he'd be right up your alley. So to speak.
