Here's an interesting point. Dazzleman, among others, has claimed that all feminists are evil man haters who are against porn more than the religious right and thus the main threat to sexual liberties. However every person on DU is a far far far left wing extremist. And as DU is 50/50 male female, it therefore stands that 50% of DU are far far far left wing extremist feminists. Yet most of DU is pro-porn and on the last poll on the topic I saw there, more than 90% of people were pro-porn.

If this was true, wouldn't most people on DU be very anti-porn?

Why the hell do you have to post such ridiculously immature garbage all the time? Honestly, you need a life.

You are such a nitwit your IQ must be in the negative numbers.  I don't know or care what most feminists' positions are pornography.

Then why do you whine about feminists all the time? That's the standard complaint I hear about them.

BTW if that statement was true I wouldn't be in college.

That's not the complaint you hear from me.  Honestly, I don't think your mind is capable of processing most of what I write.  It's too far above your level.

As far as college goes, there are some colleges who accept anybody, so the fact that you're in college proves nothing with respect to your intelligence.   From what you've described, your school hardly sounds like one with high standards.

Well if you drop below a 2.0 you lose financial aid and if you stay that way for awhile you can get kicked out.

So what?  That still proves nothing without knowing the grading standards.  Some colleges are diploma mills that inflate grades so that students can keep milking financial aid.

You should lose your aid if you go below a 2.0.  I'd make some exceptions with some students who are new science majors or in their first few semesters but you should be able to keep a basic GPA in order to progress.

I think that is actually interesting point. Or even if not on DU, just in general.
Most people who like porn are liberal.
Feminist are liberal.
Therefore, Feminists must like porn.
Not quite. Smiley

As to the bolded statement, it does not imply any such thing. You have no basis to claim that every woman who is a far left extremist is also a feminist. Unless you can provide some evidence to back up this claim, you shouldn't make it. I've known a number of women who were left wing and were not feminists, some even having a dislike of the feminist movement(modern day feminist movement anyways).

Why do you see this as a paradox?  Doctrinaire?

It just seems odd. It'd be like an ultra-left wing homosexual who wasn't for gay marriage.

Being pro-women's rights doesn't make one a feminist.

You make a lot of inappropriate suppositions.  People's opinions don't necessarily fit into a box small enough for you to comprehend.

Its quite low actually for one that supports religion over science.

^^^^^

Take my (biological) father, for example. Very liberal, very pro-abortion, very pro-sex (it shouldn't be surprising that he cheated on my mother and thus basically caused their divorce), very pro-public schools, very anti-religion, and very, very homophobic. Not to mention that he, like many other "liberals", only cares about "women's rights" so long as he can get a nice piece of ass for himself out of the deal... Roll Eyes

I still find it funny how KillerPolla thinks I am a "repressed feminist". On the other hand, what should I expect from him? I guess any woman who isn't an airheaded sexy Japanese whore-type who has just enough brains to perform sexual functions and stoop down and kiss his feet all the time must be a "repressed feminist". Perhaps the funniest thing is that he, like most other forumnites, has absolutely no proof as to what my exact gender is, and I could just as easily call him a "repressed homosexual".

Well, a feminist is a lot more likely to like porn than a religious would be.

Most of my American girlfriends were broadly tolerant of porn, and a few would even watch it with me.  The certainly had no agenda against it.  I do remember one girl from undergraduate days, however... we were both attending a party next door to my apartment and she asked to use my bathroom.  I said sure but apparently she was offended by a stack of Penthouses and Hustlers sitting by the toilet, so she threw them in the tub and filled it up.  Both I and my live-in girlfriend were outraged.
