i am sorry iverglas [View all]

that there is a thread that goes after you (and all us in that thread). and i am sorry that there is the implication of open ears, when there is nothing of the sort. i did not read a lot in the GD pageant thread. but, i read what you had to say in the other thread. i heard what you were saying. i am sorry you got the response you did, instead of an actual discussion for better understanding. i met with the same, when addressing the accusations made against me. and those were ignored, too.

it seems the women addressing the men, rating a woman like a thing, dehumanizing, is the end all and be all, of wrong. i have heard not one of the critics admonish a group of men either for rating a human being in such a manner or address the over the top sexist remarks made to women to shut them up.

i guess the agenda against perceived "2nd wave" takes precedent.

please note, that as we were receiving our lectures on the evil that we are, every person started their post with..... i dont like/agree with/watch pageants, BUT

everyone judged what this woman was doing in a pageant by adding that before they addressed their issue.

i didnt. it is a given it is sexist. i felt no need.
