Why does my chili taste different than normal? Could it be because I used different canned tomatoes?
*curiosity compels me*
Where's the trainwreck hk?
and while it's obvious that the last person to post in that thread didn't read the thread at all, it does raise a legitimate point in asking the question, do we tolerate sexism more than racism or other isms?
Because I think we would have deleted a post that asked Are a black person's opinions even worth listening to? even if it was troll bait. But maybe not. I don't know nothin'.
*hides in corner from other threads*
I think my only reservation with that is the suggestion that we tolerate sexism.
I think, on some fronts we do, on many fronts we do not.
Certainly, dcy was not tolerated.
Oh. N'rmind. Why is that thread still around? I'd thought it would've fallen off the radar. Go figure. I don't know nothin neither.
Shnitz, unless a post is locked by a moderator, it can be revived, no matter how old it is. Such happens.. too often, mayhaps.
*runs around room, screaming*
I think our higher tolerance of pseudo-sexist comments stems from the fact that there are so many strong women here, that we know we could take on any male silly enough to start something :)

*starts something* >;D
Well, recognizing that my own exposure is not necessarily connected to "typical", I don't think I'd noticed that sexism is more tolerated than racism. Maybe it is. Perhaps I'm wrong. That's just how I feel.
I feel.. odd... strange.. like I'm suddenly no longer myself. :|
269: I see.
*watches hk's 'silly' spinning around on the floor*
In fact, I'm feeling positively... robotic [:|]
