That makes you a Troll under the definition because you are asking questions that are designed to get the whole North/South argument going in a flame war on a thread. If the threads are not headed that direction, you interject a reply or another post that directs it that way again.

Biased, LOL! Look who's talking. You are the one who made the statement that Southern Women are more feminine and how Southern men prefer "their own women" indicating that there is a divide or a difference when the statements don't seem to back up your claim. Plus the simple fact that I have relatives in the South as well. That would be the side of the family that moved North during the last "migration" and married into the side who were in the North already. I can trace roots back 7 or 8 generations both in Southern Alabama, and in the North.

To answer your question before I put you on ignore as yet another Troll. I am living in the same town that my G,G,G Grandfather helped settle. I am in the area that I can take a short drive and show my own kids where the last 7 generations lived and died. I could also do that in the Brewton, Alabama area. No I'm not biased, but I will point out those who are, and are hiding under the guise of "questions" in showing it and in the unwillingness to change. You are one of those.
You must be the guy who got me in trouble with the other thread that got taken down. I actually wrote the moderator a message asking her why threads like mine get taken down, while in the mean time, I have read at least 5 threads today solely meant to degrade the South in some way. Why do those get unnoticed?

I put up my threads to inquire about things. I have noticed that there are a lot of threads on here where Northerners are talking about their plans to move South despite all the hatred directed at us on here. Something doesn't add up here. With all this hateful hypocrisy directed at Southerners on here, not to mention the biasness of the moderators, I think I would expect for the Southern posters on here like me to get a little irritated about things from time to time.

According to what?

This is something that isn't even worth debating. The North prides itself on being more progressive and tolerant but yet some of you won't admit that your women are more feminist and independent as well. You can't have it both ways. Sorry. I have never talked to anybody on this topic Northern OR Southern who HAS NOT agreed with me on this. It is pretty obvious.
