What am I supposed to do? Just sit here and listen to the libel?
No, just come in, click "Dislike" then respond "No" when someone honestly asks why you disagree with them, after they've agreed with you.

Just because you're hurting physically/mentally outside of the forum, doesn't mean you have to come in here, tearing ass because someone disagreed with you. Can't you just, you know, discuss your point like a normal person?

If you don't like responses like Mathias, you could at least do people like myself and Gasbandit the dignity of responding as kindly as we do to you.
 
That's fine, dislike it all you want. Doesn't make it any less true.

I tried treating you like an adult. Go right ahead man. I understand you're just lashing out due to your outside forum problems. I'm not going to fault you for it, just disappointed that you couldn't find another way.

Sorry, you've been anything but kind. Making assumptions about a person's motivation is not fair, and the fact that you continue to assume I'm acting based on motivations I have specifically said I do not have is a real dick move.

Shego, this...

He would never sully their purity by being so bold as to inquire upon them a notice of attraction and wanton lusty desire.
This says it all. I'm gonna go get heart surgery to increase my capacity for loving you. Gods, that was glorious.

Alright, I want to ask you straight out so we can leave this all behind:

What were/are your reasons?
 
Okay, done with the thread. Not as chaotic as was hyped, but lots of good stuff. Sometimes it's fun to go through a finished thread like that and just pass out post ratings like candy.

Only gave one Disagree even though Pez posted many, many times.

What were/are your reasons?
That varies depending on the post. I already noted that in one case it was because there was a blatantly wrong "fact" being claimed. I don't care if the rest of the post made an argument beyond that "fact", the mere stating of something that belongs only to urban myth was reason enough for me to register a "disagree".

Heck, that post where Mathias supposedly gave an argument beyond "15 seconds" was all of three sentences, and his amazing scientific "fact" was " There is probably not one day that goes by where either consciously or subconsciously you don't want to fuck the shit out of someone you saw out on the street." Which is not something that is founded in any sort of reality, like it or not. That is not a scientific statement, and it is not a statement that is backed up by any psychological testing I've ever heard of.

Many other posts I disagreed with because they made assumptions about other poster's motivations. I disagree with unfounded personal attacks. Ad homeniem attacks are not good arguments. Any post calling me a white knight was likely to be disagreed with because I hate the term, and I firmly believe it does not apply to me, and I should have the right to disagree with people who want to libel me. I strongly disagree with the idea that it's impossible for men to value the friendship of women without an interest in sex. It's not my experience, and I've known many guys who are the same way.

I disagreed with Shego's posts about a lack of sex causing strange things to happen, as I disagree with that statement, and it's not based on any scientific fact.

I disagreed with Gasbandit's "Biology says" because science does not work that way. What scientists have learned from the study of biology is a lot more complicated than the sound bite that he presented. Moreover, it's not only wrong to say that all men who refrain from having as much sex as they can only do so because they don't have the opportunity, it's blatantly false.

All in all, there was very little science presented in that thread, and I feel completely justified in disagreeing with people presenting tiny little bits of spin that don't accurately reflect the entirety of of the complex sciences involved in human sexuality.

I already asked him that. His response: "No"
I said "no" to you because you're being a jerk and you have a long standing history of not caring what I say, but interpreting my actions solely through your own personal bias. I gave an answer to LittleSin because I thought she might listen beyond seeking to affirm preconceived notions.

Okay, can we wrap this up? I actually had plans tonight and I'm sitting here posting goddamn puppy gifs instead of going out.
 
Shego AND Pez, just cut it out, or take it into PMs. This thread is already 112 pages long and I'd hate to see it locked because you two are spilling your argument over from another thread.

I'm pretty sure I do know what the word I'm using means.
