Well I certainly didn't join dsf to meet women :lol:
I just think that some people here took a discussion about pubic hair a bit too serious.

I'm put off contributing to certain threads in the Hideout at times due to the childish attitude that is prevalent. Talking about drugs constantly, smashing birds, trying drugs for the first time, pubic hair etc etc is a bit too crass for my liking a lot of the time, and downright distasteful at others.

Interesting way of putting it. So if you're not looking for a date, you're happy to be surrounded by men?

I get a bit claustrophobic in fully male environments... I quite like the way men feel the need to "raise their game" around women. For whatever reason, their presence is a positive influence on us. We talk more intelligently and we don't debase ourselves as often. We make less fart jokes. It's a good thing.

I'm fairly sure they didn't come here to "meet men", either. They probably did come to talk bollocks with like-minded people just like we did.... they probably didn't come to be made to feel ashamed of their own bodies.

why don't you spare us your obnoxious patriarchal bullshit? if so, deal! :roll:
you're the one getting your panties in a bunch at the sight of anything you consider to be "sexist" :t:
I don't know about anyone else, but our female members do an enormous amount to balance this place out and keep the tone somewhere just above the gutter... I'd quite like to see enough respect aimed in their direction that people thought twice before posting things that would naturally make women feel uncomfortable... all that is required is a bit of common sense and common respect.

But hey, female input on DSF is getting lower and lower all the time so perhaps I'm in the minority missing them... BNanni's not posting as much, Neptune's pretty much gone, bela's less regular than she used to be.... essentially we have TWO regular female posters at this point, dubfordessert and ch3 who each have to put up with the natural chauvinism of the place yet keep coming back. Perhaps we should try and keep them rather than gleefully hunting them like the last Dodo? -q-
i agree

Dubford, if i offended you with what i wrote, i apologise, i like what you post :4:

:z:

The conversation about pubes went on far too long and some of the drugs talk is just straight embarassing.

In an online environment I don't really care who's a man or woman tbh. Irl yeah, definitely enjoy female company more. But my best mates have always been guys. Never really ended well with good female friends.
I didn't want to make anybody feel ashamed with their own bodies. Just stated that pubic hair is disgusting for both women and men, and that is my opinion (this being the unpopular opinions thread and all...).
You're probably right about the not taking things to seriously part, I really don't, and not just this topic.

Homophobic language is really gay.
If this is the future, it seems highly livable: shiny, cool and comfortably dissonant. Like a low dose of ketamine in an empty, luminous airport hall in northern Japan, eating avocado and waiting for the universe to arrive.

well you don't have to be a sexist who talks about smashing birds all the time, to appreciate the beauty of that
human kind has always admired the ornamental beauty of the female form -- belly dancers, strippers, pinup girls, etc
even a lot of straight women often agree, sexy women are nicer to look at than the hard edged, boxy form of a physically fit man
Curves, breasts, hips, shoulders, faces, hair growth patterns, women win all of that

Doesn't make the woman any less of a person deserving of respect and not objectification. There's a difference between objectifying a human being and objectifying their image

Loving to look at someone dressed up and shaking their ass is fine, it's just not fair to reduce their entire personhood to that alone, to physically assault them or disrespect them because of it, or generalize women as objects or in any otherwise degrading manner


This prob belongs in the "random thoughts" thread but whatever

All of this.

Finding women attractive is perfectly natural behaviour for a man - making them think that's all their good for isn't. It's just common sense - feminism's purpose isn't to make men less masculine.

Zomby's Where Were You In 1992 wasn't that good compared to most of his other output and a lot of his best tunes seem to have remained unreleased for some weird reason.
