Maybe I'm offended because I don't look down on people because of how they were born and feel that it is wrong to do so. When I see people taking a broad stroke to describe 52% of the human species in a negative connotation rather than evaluating people on an individual basis I feel it's wrong. I'm admittedly an arsehole, but nothing I ever do is based on anything but individual respect or disrespect. Women have not earned a universal distinction of all being bad enough or inferior enough to be looked down upon in my book.

I'm offended because we're all humans and I can't comprehend why people can be so prejudiced.

"empathy" is the word we're looking for.

I have not seen one prejudiced post in this tread. Yes there have been generalizations made in the name of parody and levity. However, I have seen no posts wrapped malice or hatred. For the record "taking a broad stroke to describe 52% of the human species" is called humor. It has been going on for years.

Some people say my humor focuses too much on stereotypes. It doesn't. It focuses on facts.

Well, I never actually found Sarah Silverman very funny. LOL I'm sure there's things she's good at. Comedy is not one of them.

I think she can be pretty funny. She is very direct and unfiltered in her delivery. Her show was a bit of a disaster but her stand up is pretty good.
 
Re: Why Aren't there More Female Guitar Players, Especially Electric?

I hate that Sarah Silverman quote with a passion. It's not as if a human being goes on a fact finding mission between the moment they hear a joke and begin chortling. To some people, stereotypes and facts are interchangeable.

A reminder for those who still think guitar is a man's game:
Cathy Carter Duncan

She and Seymour started this company, together.
She is one of the two most important females in this organization, with MJ a close second.

Let's keep Cathy and MJ in mind, when posting further comments.

Exactly. This is a very common theme nowadays and it has a psychological origin.

The following list does not necessarily use every aspect to explain every individual; some people exhibit this or that aspect... others exhibit others.

...People who:

- have it easy
- don't really have to struggle in life much
- have no direction
- are bored with life
- love drama
- possess low self esteem

...Have a tendency to want to:

- create a crisis or crises (plural) where none exist
- join causes (whether cause is real or imagined)

...Because they want to:

- fill the empty drama hole in their lives
- create self-worth
- improve their public image

Which of the proposed features in the last 3 pages are NOT items that the majority of women like?

How is it sexist to identify products that the market indicates are favored by the intended demographic group:?:


At the risk of being repetitive: it is more misogynistic to pretend that women are incapable of deciding for themselves than it is to identify common preferences.
