If you're not happy with that you better put BackInUSSRLOL on ignore pronto. Some of the things he's said are astounding.

i only opened this up because i read " sexy women in poker" for some reason

I wasnt talking about conditioning. I was talking about inherent (somthing one is born with) control over emotion. Btw this isnt necessarily a bad thing. Women in general are more sympethetic to others.

I dont know if this argument is ever gonna end tho cus neither of us has any proof. Also, I dont put much trust in psych as a science or in any of its studies.

also, I agree with a lot of what ussr has to say aside from him saying that women are less intelligent. Idk about that since idk what intelligence even is. I dont think he does either or anyone does for that matter

I think the whole concept of humanity thinking it has a grasp on what intelligence is, is ridiculous.

Yeah, well, again, there's zero evidence that women are born with less control over their emotions.

And since psychology and psychiatry are the main branches that study emotions, what you are basically saying is "I have no proof of my own and refuse to trust most of the proof out there; I'm just going to believe what I want." Which is fine, feel free. But your suggestion that there is no proof that others do accept strongly suggesting that differences in emotional expression are much more strongly influenced by nurture (upbringing and social conditioning) than by nature (inherently different emotional structures in boys and girls) is incorrect.

what im saying is you can take people into a white room and have then do somthing, call the room a lab and the thing a study.

Or, you can go out meet people on the street watch the things they do and call a street a street and a things things.

Regardless of which approach you take you get experience with humans and it is directly proportional to how observant you are. I havent proven any of my observations like, mathematically, but, neither has gravity been proven in an absolute sense. You just see things drawn together and ASSUME that there is a force generated by their mass that does the pulling. I see things and learn from them what I can. In this case I have observed through my human interaction that women are more emotional not only due to societal education (altho there is some of that as well)

mostly grunched.

If 2 men are walking down the street and say it about another stranger walking on the street, is that considered a public forum? Or a party, where there are mutual friends? If so, than yes.

We arent going to stop being men because the word might get to her. If it does it does, whatever.

The rest of that is just PC bull****. Women suck at sports comparatively -> you play like a girl, WHO GIVES A ****.

LOL at the guys here talking about women as if they understand everything about them, by the looks of it most of you haven't even talked to a woman in RL before. Some of your theories are just plain bizarre.

The idea that sexism towards women can somehow be justified because some women are sexist or there are some situations where men are at a disadvantage compared to women, is simply laughable. Women have been grossly oppressed throughout all of human history, and this has only just started to change over the last 150 years, mainly in small affluent pockets of the world.

Im sorry but a bull dagger's likley to catch heat weather she's playing cards or switching out alternators.

One of the great things about poker is it's purity. The game is the game. It doesn't care about your race sex or anything else. That's why Phil Ivey can rise to the pinnacle of poker. You think Phil Ivey could rise to the top of a similar field like trading? Hell no because advancement is dependent on the subjective opinion of those in power i.e. the man.

Any woman who is talented enough could rise to the top in poker, there is absolutely nothing stopping them. There is no prejudice in poker besides initial staking but that can be overcome easily. In poker if you treat someone with prejudice you will likely be punished for it because it will cause you to play incorrectly vs. them.

There is a natural tendency against sexism in poker therefore.

If anything women have an advantage in marketing and being staked. I mean Kara Scott? Come on man.

some girls in my homegames are pretty decent players. i dont look down on them!

The sexism in poker and at 2+2 is pretty disgraceful. I brought this up years ago in another thread. I don't think much has changed.

Have you ever read any viktor blom thread!?

Actually, no. I guess I'll have to poke around in there too, eh?

the world is sexist.

the internet isnt shy about it

/the~end

Are there any pictures of Patrik Antonius taking a dump? I'd like to get my hands on that.

Poker is a bit sexist but who gives a crap? Just be glad there is no sexism.

They don't care if your a ******ed black lesbian woman blind triple amputee with AIDS, if you got the money, you can play. Its probably one of the least discriminatory "sports" around. So shut your pie hole and shuffle up and deal.

this

when has every country on this earth not been sexist? There are some baddd places in this world, much worse than verbal or internet sexism.... its mind boggling.

or wait no it isnt really at all, because its been like that forever.

What's wrong with being sexy ?

Is this meant to be a justification for talking about female poker players as if their sole purpose is to satisfy your libido?
Even if women in general were "more emotional" (which is pretty tough to prove, given the huge amount of empirical data that could be used to make a case for or against), does that automatically mean that women are not good poker players and that we should discuss their sexiness instead of their playing style?

I suppose that's what happens when you're
-Smaller
-Weaker
-Slower
-Less intelligent
-Less logical
-Less in control of yourself

Oh well...

Bingo, and sexism and other forms of group based mentalities are completely natural to humans (and other animals). Men think they're the best, thankfully there's sufficient evidence to back it up but regardless...Catholics think they're the best, Jews think they're the best, black people think they're the best yada yada yada people identify or attempt to identify themselves with groups based on natural similarities or having things in common and as a consequence, tend to believe those not in the group or in rival groups suck/are the worst/whatever.

It'll happen until humanity ceases to exist.

Oh, you're saying "All these things are perfectly natural, so we should just accept them".
I guess that we should all turn a blind eye to religious or racial intolerance because such things have occurred throughout history. It's ok for Muslims to hate Jews. It's ok for whites to hate blacks. It's ok for women to be paid less than men. Heck, maybe it's ok for men to rape women because that's what they did in the Stone Age.

It's NOT okay. None of these things are OK. When outdated views like yours surface in public, they MUST be challenged. If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem.

We're animals

Remove modern society and we're just ****ing animals

People don't like to hear it because it scares them that they're no better than gorillas deep down. Hell I'd feel lucky to be a gorilla. I'd just eat leaves all day, jerk off, and bone the dominant female until I'm eventually killed by a group of poachers from the Democratic Republic of Congo for my hands and skull.

yeah men are sexists. it's our animalistic instincts that tell us we need to dominate to secure our harem. to spread our seed as widely as possible. to prosper as a male means boning the whole lotta you.

there's no room in our heads for any expansion. it's too full of blood and cum to fit anything else in there. if you try to CRAM it in, you'll just end up with a blood and cum covered idea that doesn't really go anywhere becuase it can't. we're just apes.


you mad?

Why do you think there's cum in our heads? That's ******ed.

My only thoughts on the matter..

When nerds and geeks constantly don't get any pussy, they lash out, like angry monkeys.

Some of us are a little more evolved.

Nice posting itt Sgt Rj

no, it doesnt. I dont think that should be done.

HOWEVER, a lot of female poker pros get to where they are through sex, so... although I dont think its right to emphasize sex that much, it really isnt only mens fault at all. you can have ur cake and eat it too
