Thank you mods for deleting that thread.

[Bunny]

Thank you very much. :thumbsup:

1. Yeah, heaven help us if we actually

have to have real discussions around here, Lord save us. :eyes:

[Bunny]

4. I'm not sure I understand you.

Do you feel that discussing whether Harris is a "bimbo" who only got where she is by fucking men is actually productive?

[liberalhistorian]

6. I'm saying if people have a problem with that, they

can bow out of the thread. Who are you to decide whether or not a certain discussion is "productive." People should be allowed to make up their own minds, without it being decided for them. I thought, being progressives, that we could all at least agree on that. If you don't like something, don't read/watch/listen to it, but don't make that decision for others as well.

[Bunny]

7. So permitting blatantly sexist threads on a progressive board

is okay with you? Hmmm.....It may be okay on some other boards, but it should not be permitted here. What if they wanted to discuss minorities in racist terms? Would that be okay with you? Should anyone who objects to that just ignore it?

And BTW, I didn't make the decision, the mods did. Take your complaint to them if you don't like their decision.

8. I didn't happen to think that thread was

blatantly sexist. There are some people here who are far too hypersensitive to that kind of thing. Not every single thing said that isn't totally complimentary to women is sexist.

[Bunny]

9. Saying that a successful woman is a bimbo who must have slept her way to

the top is NOT sexist? That she used her SEX to get where she is is not SEXIST? O-o-o-o-o-kay. Sure. Well, I guess I'm just hypersensitive. Silly me. The mods agreed, so apparently I'm not the only one.

17. If she was a b*mb* who slept her way to the top, should we just ignore

it? We sure got into Gannon's sexuality without hearing things like this.

Not saying she was or wasn't, I never looked at the thread to see if there was anything to it, I'm not drawn to that sort of topic.

Peace

13. The mods made the decision

Implying that women made it to the top by sleeping their way up without ANY evidence is sexist.

[Catholic Sensation]

20. NO EVIDENCE, HA! SHE'S A REPUBLICAN!!!

You didn't know that all Republican women are completely unable to do anything on their own but suck and fuck their way to the top? Where have you been?! :sarcasm:*



*(after yesterday's peta thread apparently all sarcasm must be noted as such, no matter how obvious an exaggeration it is)

[Mr_Spock]

10. She is for sure

Why is that bad? Lots of people live their life as virtual whores.

[Bunny]

12. "For sure"?? You've got videos, or something?

[Mr_Spock]

14. Delete

Forget it

[Bunny]

15. Well, thank you for trying to keep the discussion on a mature level.

[cry baby]

18. nice job, bunny

[BlueIris]

3. Yes. Thanks, mods.

I have no idea what anyone is posting about but--good for you. It has been KEE-RAZY around here lately, as predicted.

16. Lets turn this around:Would it be okay if they said this about a democrat?

No? Okay than there's your answer. It is openly sexist to assume anyone, no matter your feelings toward them sleeps their way to the top to get elected or have a job.

Katherine Harris is a vile disgrace, but resorting to sexist remarks makes everyone else look racist or bigoted. Its how they can figure out ways to "divide" americans...

19. I got stoned and i missed it?

21. Thanks, Mods!

22. Thanks...

But I'm going to lock this before it turns into another flamewar.
