But it's totally justifiable to call anyone who calls a woman a c*nt misogynistic.

[Ben Kenobi]

I'm talking about you calling female governor a c*nt?

Umm, I wasn't talking about the governor.

Tuberski:

she didn't get an extra dime.

Referring to his ex-wife, not the attorney general of Utah.

Also, fwiw, Utah's attorney general is a man:

Apparently reading is a fundamental skill. Who knew?

[MikeH]

It was ambiguous whether you meant his ex wife or the governor, either way, abusing women based using the most offensive pejorative term aimed at the discriminated against group of women.

Calling a man a d*ck (since we're apparently ok with evading the censor here), is misandristic? Or maybe pr*ck is ok?

I love how he's trying to justify that it's ok to call a woman a **nt.
Unbelievable.

[Ben Kenobi]

It was ambiguous

No, it was not. You failed in your reading comprehension. Governor of Utah = man. Attorney General of Utah = man. Governor of Texas = man. Attorney General of Texas = man. The only person it could possibly refer to is Tuberski's ex-wife.

abusing women based using the most offensive pejorative term aimed at the discriminated against group of women.

What 'group of women' did I discriminate against? 'Successful' women? I used the term explicitly in reference to one woman in particular. Who, IMHO well warrants the term. Again, I'm not going to apologize for calling a spade a spade.

I know.

He's going to refuse to believe that women are discriminated against in a minute. I can't bear it. I might just ban him so I can enjoy the rest of the afternoon.

I'm not going to apologise for calling a spade a misogynist.

[Ben Kenobi]

Where did I say that?

Again, how did we get from, "Tuberski's ex-wife is a ****" to "all women are ****s?" One does not equal the other.

[Ben Kenobi]

I'm not going to apologise for calling a spade a misogynist.

And yet, I'm the one asserting that women are (and ought to be treated), as individuals, not a collective. Apparently the bad behaviour of one woman reflects on women as a whole. Who knew?

[MikeH]

Well done, you've outwitted me with your brain. I'm sure the future readers of this exchange will marvel at your genius.

Have a nice weekend.

[rah]

Yeah, thank god that the act of one Catholic calling a woman a **nt doesn't reflect poorly on all Catholics.

Why would that be relevant to you?

[Sava]

Do you think Plomp would permaban BK if I gave him $50?

[MikeH]

I'll do it for $10.
