Why are they so Mean? OT


Recommended Posts

I have not been here long, but one of the things that I have noticed is that alot of the Ladies around these parts are M-E-A-N. Why is that? And before you can start it: NO I am not talking about ALL women in the forums. NO I don't dislike the ladies. NO NO NO. What I mean is I have been surfing through different threads, and in the last several posts in which I have noticed a long, biting, argument, there was usually a GIRL at the bottom of it? Was it coincidence?

Haven't noticed that. Take Lee Flier, for example, probably the most prominent female on this board. She's not mean. Talkative, sometimes argumentative, but not mean at all. Plus, you can't REALLY tell whether the person is male or female by their on-screen name. Take me, for example...

In the heat of a debate or discussion, if you have your facts straight and have done your homework on the paticular subject, (this applies to men or women) you have earned the right to be a bit forceful if the other person is being ignorant, mis-informed close-minded d**khead, right? :)
In two days, it won't matter.

I don't know if I am one of these women that you consider "mean" or not, but I do wonder why it is that when the MEN get mean around here (which a lot of them do and have recently), you don't notice, but let a woman get mean and you have to point it out. No judgement intended either way, just an observation. But in general, I don't think most people here, of either sex, are mean, although definitely there's been some weirdness here the past few weeks from people you don't expect to see getting that weird.

Are you SURE you're talking about this forum? There's a few people here that are kinda mean, but none of them are female posters.

I must admit, I did get a full salvo of torpedoes from one of the women on this forum, that I thought was pretty much unprovoked. But it was just one incident. I certainly haven`t noticed a pattern to that effect. But I don`t do a lot of chatting with the women here anyway, so maybe it`s not my place to say. And yes, there`s no way of really knowing who`s who-at least by the usual chitchat.

But let`s not replace one set of stupid stereotypes with another. There is a difference, no matter which gender is doing it. Has the person aleady made their point, but they`re being insulting too? are they being insulting INSTEAD of making their point? The type of men who can`t or won`t distunguish between the two qualities are ignoramuses, or claculating assholes. I don`t have much time for either.
