Alyxx Thorne

There's a guy, whom I consider my closest Internet friend but lately all he ever types to me about is his problems and when we've solved them then conversation's over. I'm glad that he trusts me but at the same time I just feel like tissue paper. I'm probably looking at this from the wrong angle, though.

Try talking to him more. Maybe that'll help.

I'll soon be having some casserole with salad and a glass of apple flavoured Olden water.

Watching House, making dinner and chatting with my boyfriend. All at the same time.

Yes, BlackThorne, I almost forgot that! That was one great atmospheric game. Now where did I put my dosbox...?!

I still play it now and then. The atmosphere is definitely one of the great things about it.

I think violence in itself is evil and resorting to it, whether you are a man or a woman, shows a real lack of self control.

I'm not bothered by Fluttershy either.

I'm not saying it's okay to hit women, in fact I'm not saying it's okay to hit anyone. What I'm saying is that it's not okay to not defend yourself against a woman on the premise that women are the weaker sex. It's a sexist thought altogether.

But violence should always be avoided, regardless of whether it is a man or a woman.

To be honest I have never hit anyone in my life, nor do I ever hope I'll have to, and I really hope nobody will hit me either.

If you want to truly be a gentleman and be "noble" as you call it, then I'd say you wouldn't hit anyone regardless of gender without a really good reason. Violence has never been a good answer to anything.

I want people to love me for who I am, not what I am. I want that for everyone. I don't love my boyfriend because he's a man, I love him because he's the only person on Earth who makes me feel really special and I couldn't care less whether he was a woman or a man. Granted I am bisexual but that's besides the point.

Diggity diggy digging a hole...

Apple and Water.

 

Fuckin.... HEALTH!

Haha! I love apple-flavoured water. XD

If you ever need to talk, I'm free on Steam and MSN, dear. I'm a good listener usually.

Just woke up. Gonna head into town later on to buy some groceries.

Your shirt just got 20 percent cooler.

I edited your post btw. Please put large images in spoilers or use links.

Thing is that today it's very easy to do a short film that looks really professional and well done since equpiment is much cheaper nowadays and more accessible, and anyone with a limited budget can make something like that.

Mom's eating Tuna. I'm about to eat negative food. Can't stand the smell of Tuna...

*opens a can of tuna and eats it*

... what?

Yea, Rockstar Energy Drinks fucking suck. For whatever reason, they make me feel really depressed and moody.

Don't like Rockstar much.

Hey, if I deserved it, I would WANT to be punched. If a man didn't punch me because of my gender I'd call him a coward.

In general I try to go for non-violent solutions though but... really, it would piss me off like hell if a man didn't punch me just because I have boobs.

Banned for crashing my computer.

I think this topic has more or less been discussed by now.

But it's nice to hear people's opinions.

Alyxx, while my intentions are to be as non-sexist as possible here, I have to say, as I said before, that it is statistically factual that most women are weaker than most men. That's the human design. There's no way around it. Yes, we should treat women as social equals. They are just as human and intellectually capable as men (if not more capable in some cases). However, on the grounds of physical attributes, a man cannot treat all women as equals, as many ARE truly weaker, and to punch a woman when all she's doing is hitting you and doing little physical damage is wrong to me, just like a grown man kicking a 14 year old boy in the ribs because his room wasn't clean 5 days before Christmas is wrong.

It's still sexist to say that in my opinion. And to base your statement on statistics is like saying "yeah, screw individuals, we're talking about the majority here".

The world isn't the majority, the world is individuals. I'm talking about each individual woman AND man on the planet here. I've met a lot of guys who probably couldn't and WOULDN'T defend themselves in a fight, they didn't seem "naturally stronger" than women to me. And on that note I've seen several girls beat up guys easily and had NO problem actually being the aggressor in some cases.

It's a stereotype and a myth that women are "naturally weaker" than men. Sure, that might be the majority but I'd say that the majority of men nowadays aren't necessarily stronger than women.

but if it would be okay to hit a guy, then it would be okay to hit a woman under the same circumstances.

 

No, it won't be OK. Men's aggressiveness towards each other is part of a biological imperative to compete for females. It is somewhat counterbalanced by many other higher-level considerations arising from the social structure of human society, but it is there.

 

Towards women, men's biological imperative is to be nice and protective. And so we should be, within reason.

 

Regards

I agree that a man SHOULD be nice and protective but not because of his nature, but because of his emotions towards his love, regardless if it's another man or another woman. Both parts should defend each other and be protective of each other, it shouldn't just be the "man over woman" thing.

I also discovered that when I do acknowledge God and pray to him, I feel much happier inside. It feels good to put your faith and trust wholely into something.

Yeah, it does. Now I cannot imagine a world without God. It's changed my entire perception of reality, I think.

@This whole thread:

 

LOL yeah, because the world is SO incredibly overpopulated. Not.

 

If people want their damn space, then just move somewhere that has it. For example, people are like "Hey, look at how incredibly crowded New York City/Tokyo/London is! It's really getting on my nerves how many humans there are here."

 

I've got a solution to that: Just move somewhere isolated that has the space and resources to keep you self-sustainable and happy, and enjoy yourself. It's not as hard as you might think; I personally know people that have done exactly that. There's all the open space in the world (no pun intended) for people to build civilization on; is anyone actually aware of this? There are places in the USA that have such a low population, you're lucky if you spot more than one house every five miles along the interstate. Yes, the INTERSTATE. It's that sparse.

 

And trust me, there are plenty of world resources; that isn't the issue. The issue is that most governments are too damn stupid to actually harvest them. And, coincidentally, the countries that DO in fact harvest their natural resources have way more than they could possibly use, and sell it to countries like America (Which is too lazy to get off it's own ass and utilize it's MILLIONS of gallons of crude oil in areas like Montana, North Dakota, and Alaska). Not to mention, the people that actually sell resources are rolling in money, which further proves America's ignorance in regard to the debt issue.

 

Think what you want, that's just my opinion.

I think you have a very good point. Especially if you come to Norway it might be a small country but we have a LOT of free space for people who don't like being around people.
