Stop Dehumanizing People!

well, for me soul mate was not a belief as such, as an experience incredibly mindblowingly powerful and shook me to my core, the energetic stuff was absoloutely insane, which sounds like limerence as it is recognised by the dictionary and expressed on a more dryer level

and when I found this guy sites, I was literally in tears of recognition

I had a reading with him and the basics still resonate

hope it helps dude

So please. Take a moment and recognize that people are people. Women, men, Muslims, lesbians, whoever…..we’re all just people.

smylee, nice rant. What I can say is that even ancient scripture agrees with you.
Symbolized by the women being pulled from the side of man in Genesis. Not from
his head to reign over him. And not from his feet to be below him. Indeed, from
his side to walk beside him, as a partner, as an equal. When I finally understood
this, after two failed marriages. Well, this is year thirteen of my third and still very
strong. My main point there inlies. It's up to the man to get it right. And a womens
occassional rant on the subject can be a blessing. Because a lot of men look for clues
like this, but never find one.

Stop contradicting yourself.

Hah how do you figure one statement as having anything to do with the other
in my mind? Just one more of your arrogant, off topic, wrong assumptions that
raise contempt for you AI. It's quite repulsive.

Your opinions of me are irrelevant. You started off describing women as equals, then switched feet and stated that it's up to men to get it right. The quotes are right there.

i remember posting in this topic a long time ago,
i think what randy just said holds merit
think of a man like a huge oil tanker..
and the woman is like the rudder
without that ability to steer & navigate the man is doomed
this is what the female polarity does
the female also has to incorporate the male aspect to become whole
like the yin-yang symbol expresses

Inspires the notion that perhaps the purest, most natural form is neither male nor female, but an amalgamation of both.

My opinion was expressed in regard to your assumptions.
If you can't get that much organized in your head?
Then just assume your wrong about the rest too.

Your tongue-in-cheek jibes are off topic.

Shes Hysterical

reply to post by AthlonSavage


Hysterical? Nope, simply fed up with the way people are treated. My rant focused on women because, at the time of writing, I'd read about ten threads in the same day that were quite misogynistic. However, its meant for all people regardless of sex, gender, nationality, age, religion, sexual preference, etc.

Old Pop,

You need to read this. we can't go on dividing ourselves down the middle like this...

A Message to Women from a Man: You are Not Crazy

You're so sensitive. You're so emotional. You're defensive. You're overreacting. Calm down. Relax. Stop freaking out! You're crazy! I was just joking, don't you have a sense of humor? You're so dramatic. Just get over it already!

Sound familiar?

If you're a woman, it probably does.

Now straighten up or I'll take you to the Mud Pit.

reply to post by AthlonSavage


LOL

You just proved the entire thesis of the article Bybots referenced. Congratulations for upholding a stereotype that dehumanizes an entire segment of the population.

reply to post by smyleegrl


Just because I thought you were being overly animated in your OP. now im the stereotype enforcer? I think woman have many comparable equal opportunities in this day and age. Compare now to say 19060s-70s and tell me this is untrue?

reply to post by AthlonSavage


Not what I said.

I'm not sure how a rant about dehumanizing people turned into an equal rights discussion. It certainly wasn't my intention.

Did you read the article? It's not about equality, but about how some men belittle women and their opinions.

Your comment "the male side of your brain brought you back to terra firm" is a prime example of this.

reply to post by smyleegrl


It was a woman who authored the book Men are from mars and woman are from Venus. Do you agree with this or not?

Im stunned you cant see the connection where there is no equal rights theres is always dehumanizing people!

reply to post by AthlonSavage


Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus

No, AS, it's by a man, named John Gray.

reply to post by Bybyots


Thanks for that. My question still stands however.

edit on 12-4-2014 by AthlonSavage because: (no reason given)

So, are you claiming the dehumanization of women is directly related to lack of equal rights? That wasn't my statement at any point during this rant. Personally, I think women do have equal rights in the US (for the most part) and men are, in some ways, less equal. Child custody battles are a great example of that, although there are more.

My request, pure and simple, is that EVERYONE thinks before they speak or write, and stop lumping people into an "all or nothing" group. It's not an attack against anyone, except those who wrote the really horrific threads that prompted this one, more than a year ago.
