Re: Sexism is still rife in society and always will beThat's the type of stuff I do, or at least used to do (and still do when I find myself having to interact with a girl actually).(Original post by redferry)
Well the guy who said that is very sexist in general, he can't deal with independent outspoken girls at all and will always talk them down in a conversation without fail. I have seen him just turn to his fairly outspoken house-mate when she has started to debate a point with him and just go 'shhhhh' and stop the conversation dead, yet with guys he will happy debate on topics for ages. Also - the way he said it. There was a hell of a a lot of emphasis on the word she.
While I have an extreme annoyance with interacting with girls in general, regardless of their intellect, looks, status and etc, most other guys are more than willing to do so and don't think much of it - especially the modern lefty youth of today. The problem with thinking is that, often times you create your own problems, enemies, things, that were never really out in the real world, nature itself, in the first place*. Only causing yourself trouble in the long term, as everything else just keeps on carrying on.
* Not to mention, you overestimate your significance in the lives of others. Something that you seem to do quite a bit imo.
Either way, my point was, my annoyance with interacting with girls causes those I'd consider my friends trouble, so I generally have just stopped hanging out in groups where 'girls' are members, or at least there's an obvious distinction between male and female. Unless I want to troll a little that is.
I'm so awesome.Last edited by avupa2; 12-04-2012 at 10:17. -
