SPQR,

LOL, women. Or in this case, womyn.

- The ritualised stroking, flattery and cheering-on is being laid on thick with a large trowel to cement together the 'hit' squad who did the job on another woman poster.

Over-sugared superflattery - insincere and needy.

Hmmmm, perhaps the target of their 'attention', Constance, may have touched a nerve somewhere.

Look out, incoming!

Lol!...and what thread would be complete without the faux defender of feminine honour stepping up to the plate...thanks otb!

How remiss of us to call to task a poster whose semi-regular visits to this forum are notable for her malicious and personal attacks on posters who hold different views to her own.

You guys seem to think that's fine...and I know otb is fond of deploying similar tactics when he's scratching around for odium in lieu of argument.

Constance is welcome to put her views across - she's not welcome to systematically engage in unprovoked personal abuse and belligerence.

Cheers

Constance has annoyed Poirot on another thread. The ganging up for the hit and over-sugared flattery and stroking afterwards is what some women do.

The ongoing flattery and over-interest in the minutiae of one another's lives also serves the (bullying) purpose of 'icing out' the female who is deemed to have 'crossed' the particular group (gang) of women.

Where's the solidarity and sisterhood?

"Constance has annoyed Poirot on another thread..."

Pray tell, otb...which "other thread"?

I do become a little annoyed with posters who hurl personal abuse as a matter of course - especially when they single out a target and find ways to whack 'em a good one whenever they can confect the opportunity.

Come to think of it, you're inordinately fond of pulling the same stunt in relation to Foxy. I've lost count of the number of times you've skewed her argument in order to slam her with personal innuendo.

No wonder you're stepping in to defend such behaviour, attempting to turn our censure into a 'ganging-up".....you're a practitioner of such low tactics yourself.

Figures....

Oh what's wrong Onthebeach?
Is no one giving you any attention?
Poor baby....

OK, so obviously my closing sentence should have read,

"Where's the solidarity and sisterhood? (SIC)"

Just trying to be helpful. After all, you are the products of your now aged generation and if one is so bold to add, frozen in time decades back in the last century - the previous Millenium in fact.

You are representative of what girls used to be, princesses (made of sugar and spice) who were doted upon and wrapped in cotton wool by parents who went though WW2, did everything for you and excused every fault. The inheritance: superficial 'niceness' and a mass of unresolved stress and baggage underneath. If only those mums had let you express your real emotions, especially anger, huh?

Give me young women any day. Open, risk-taking and authentic, they abhor the life-wasting games their dino rad fembot grandmothers play.
