didn't expect an honest, reveal one's hypocrisy, managed to avoid both by refusing to answer, [View all]

super fragile, difficult to answer without revealing a double standard, double standard, CONFIRMED my suspicion by not answering the question, you managed to avoid being seen as either a liar or a hypocrite (by ducking the question), even if you DID reveal a double standard (like I suspect you might if you had answered), The posse, lighten up, permanent chip on your shoulder, you're always assuming the worst, Men aren't all bad, not everything needs to be interpreted as an assault upon women, A little defensive, hit a nerve?, Lay off the playing the victim, it's most unbecoming, par for the course, stir up a suitable level of outrage, few heads popping, your posts are incredibly rude, You see some sort of male-dominated agenda aimed at debasing women in everything, you're coming to your buddy's aid (this is particularly funny seeing it is a thread of the mens group insulting), perpetual outrage crowd, makes some feel good...trash it as a sexual assault, you weren't so antagonistic toward an entire gender, stir up a few people...didn't expect the riot mode, militant, bitter, man-haters

and all this is not being bullied, it is being schooled. the woman stepping in to protect the men, confirming it is an effective form of debating. being schooled.

to be clear. on sexual assault OP a poster said it was "a slippery slope". i simply wanted clarification on what the poster was saying, suggesting, that sexual assault laws are a "slippery slope". nothing else. a simple question. that never got answered, as the barrage of insult and nastiness proceeded.

an example of a thread, men using insults and personal attacks and taking it to the personal, in the majority of posts. this is the arguing style they find the most effective. i want it to be clear, that women on du who oppose or challenge their perspective can expect it taken to insults, personal attacks and making it personal.
