You mean that we can only post here if you approve?
That isn't how a forum works, neither is ranting in a PM to someone when they conclusively disprove your points.

My style .. my capacity is to be able to talk to individual's indvidually, ok, it's why I don't resond well on these debates, is simply because I 'can't' its way too much coming at me, I have to have things broken down into bite sizes, this has nothing to with gender, btw.
So either you're in this for you're own ego's, OR you actually interested in a serious discussion on the concept! IF it's the second, then you will be accomodating, if it's the first, then you'll just tear this to shreds, just for the sake of it!

That's never how any thread has worked. You don't get special treatment because of your views or out of some misguided belief that people should somehow be sensitive to you when you come out with such discriminatory and insensitive things as the OP.

A serious discussion or comments by any of you, would have started your responses with acknowledgement and then raise your 'personal' thoughts, meaning as it apply's to you specific.

Acknowledgement comes with agreement. I did so in response to your subsequent post, but there was nothing justifying such in your first.

But instead, you want to make 'statement's', and lecture
This is not University, this is real life, and in real life, dissertations don't/won't work to address the issues. Not one single women out there, who want's to see these, is going to be in the least bit swayed by your educated perspectives.

I beg to differ. Just because some posts are too long for your liking doesn't suddenly invalidate them - I could have simply closed this thread like the inflammatory rubbish it is or posted a one-like dismissal, but didn't. Yes, in the world, most people are far less educated than the average person at university, but that doesn't mean a point that is long, especially when examining a complex point. It seems you're looking for any reason to object to posts you personally don't like. If I had made 5 10,000 word spots in a row (without a similar post length it was in reply to) then yes, that would be excessive, but I always let my actual points stand for themselves without need for such things. Just because my post was slightly longer than yours doesn't give you some right to complain. You do not have a right to complain after making this thread. Not when people reply to each other rather than
you; not when some posts are longer than you might comfortably want to read; not when people disagree with you as you KNEW would have been coming when you made the OP.

Reason, is not long winded, it is short and pointent, it does not need to argue or debate, or fight for it's opinions. Reason, Rational, and Logic, speak softly, quietly, with few words, because it's self-evident!

That's an interesting sentiment from someone who makes posts about how great anything to do with native americans are regardless ofcontext or merit historical or otherwise; who buys into the 'noble savage' stereotype, whether willingly or unconsciously, and who flip-flops between 'everyone is equal' and 'people deserve special treatment because...', as well as rejecting posts out of hand when they challenge your own point.
Also, just to get this across again, ranting in a PM to someone when they reply is not an acceptable course of action; you also can not complain because someone
replied to a post other than yours in the thread. Spend some more time on forums and see how they work.
