@lungs: I usually don't want to be the wet blanket where humor is involved, but:
If we made a thread "laugh about female rights" would you make a thread again asking if it's personal? ( i wasn't involved in the thread and I disagreed with the statements that spawned it, but this thread makes your other one kinda hypocritical...)
Sorry, but this just kinda disappoints me, if you want to be taken serious about gender issues, it doesn't really fly to make fun of the other "party". There's a lot of bullshit in MR, but there's the same in feminism.
I'm not certain you'd be all that happy with a "fun pictures about idiot ideas feminists have, it's strawmanning AND not constructive to the problem.
Edit: somehow i'm hoping that I'm missing the point here and you're actually doing this to make the statement i commented on above, in which case, well done

Still think it's not constructive, but if it makes you feel better it's a fun way to do it.
You are obsessed woman.
I get lungs. We need to treat people fair, but objectively speaking straight heterosexual men are the least discriminated against. Yes they have feelings too, yes they can be harmed and they aren't campy demons but I think history has naturally proven that we put straight men on a pedastal and look down on everybody else otherwise there would already be an OPENLY gay president or woman president, and a bunch of other things.
So you are asking her to be fairer in a situaton where she already naturally had the short end of the stick. I don't think she needs to be the one thats 'fairer' - I think str8 men need to stop being the one that's all 'you know that you want to suck my dick and you know that I'm always right.' while at the same time thinking they can treat everybody however they want in their sock puppet brain. And its always the other person for being offended or 'hypocrticial' or lashing back, it's never their fault for making them retaliate in the first place.
And these men's rights activist do kind of suck. They are often whiney and insecure heterosexual men who are totally clueless lmao. I could be all super fair and then say 'well even whiney straight men have feelings too.' It's dumb and this endless cycle. Sometimes, the anvil just has to fall on the straight man or no real progress would be made. And no no you don't get to say 'sometimes the anvil has to fall on the gay/women too.' The anvil has already fallen on us way too much and too many times.
so go @lungs it's your bday. Let her have her personal sandbox.
hahahah this one is gold!

This thread was so good over morning coffee.
