I'm asking this question because yet again I voice my opinion, yet again the women on this forum throw the misogynist label at me.
In real life, I have a daughter and plenty of platonic female friends as well as some romantic interests. I have been called a lot of nasty things by women but I have yet to be called a misogynist in real life. I associate with all types of female friends. One was a teenage part-time prostitute, part time radio voice/intern. One (who was a good friend) was an accomplished lawyer who made half a mil every year (she actually defended me, we had an off and on again affair but we were mostly friends). Another was a mexican business lady who established many businesses. We stayed friends, mostly because she was not my type (actually pretty ugly lol).
Now, I voice in real life everything I say here and then some. I remember getting one of my ex-gfs to violently react when I just off the cuff said I didn't believe her best friend was raped (she ended up getting drunk with a couple dudes and then next morning oof she screamed raped). But even then no one bothered to say I was a misogynist. Only on this forum.
IMO, I'm fair. I criticize both men and women. And have done so on this forum but the women here only seem to remember a couple opinions I hold.
Mostly I'm just frustrated reading those accusations, wanting to respond, only to find the thread locked....The mods here basically kill every conversation and treat us like little kiddies who have to only say nice things. **** that, let it sling

This is not a face-to-face, private venue full of personal friends and acquaintances. This is a very large message board.
The mods here may not actually mind letting it all hang out in a more intimate setting. We are, however, tasked with following the posting guidelines for this forum.
I'm not sure what part of that is so difficult to grasp.
Do you assume we can't handle cursing? Crude sexual innuendo?
I curse like a sailor sometimes. LOL.
We know gender bashing, for example, exists away from this forum.
Here? We just follow the guidelines. I suggest you follow them as well.
