I don't think I've ever seen someone brag about their Ms POG winning after the series has run its course or take great pride in it. (maybe right away but that died off probably within a week to never be mentioned again)

Just make it from now on POG Person of the year.

If a cutie pie girl wins with her pics, good for her, if Hilldog wins with her $tats, good for her, if Donald Trump wins, good for him, you get the point.

I don't care if Ms POG stays or not, lets throw every possible entry into the rotation and see what happens.

The only "issue" I see is trying to pair up entries vs. eachother, RNG is probably best.

Everything goes. As long as it is a Person. (yes I self exclude my glorious dog)

People make their case no matter what he/she is/does/looks like.

The people vote.
dogs are people too

huh, i dont know what you are really getting at. in the tv industry, a womans looks is more important than a mans looks. i dont really know if thats in dispute. they get used as props more on shows etc.

anyway its not a sidetrack relevant to this subject. i think ive made myself clear and no one has really disagreed with person of the year rather than ms pog

But men are raised to feel they have value outside their looks.

I mean, you need only look at films. There are handsome male actors but they are not working just because they're handsome. They are not sold as being just hot. But women often are. They are often in films simply as window dressing.

A sort-of analogous thing for men is their job/income

Woman has no job but is supported by her boyfriend/husband? Perfectly normal

Man has no job but is supported by his girlfriend/wife? Worthless leech

That's maybe a slight exaggeration but that type of thing is a much stronger pressure for men than for women

I don't condone hateful rhetoric towards groups of specific people. And I would serve something besides pork at the bbq. Simple as that.
It would hardly be hateful. Not once is any hate expressed other than the butthurt part at the end

After seeing lalaland twice I think Emma Stone should be a lock to win this

Whatever the voting metric is

Gambit, you've remained semi-quiet on this.

I know you hate white supremacy. I do too.

What's the difference between the top version being unacceptable but the bottom version being ok in that post?

In fact, if anyone can give a reasonable answer to the above, I'll stop arguing.
Anyway i addressed your post and showed how you can modify it with religion to make it fine

And i think my answer was reasonable and the onus should be on you to show it not reasonable before you resume arguing

Yes, I'm on the side of not wanting the thread, but calling it hate speech is ridiculous

Of course it is, thats why its completely unacceptable to say it to black people and gay people.

And also to Mulsims and women, which you seem wholly oblivious to, even with literally the clearest of demonstrations.

Why not give someone else a shot?

I said it was hateful rhetoric, not hate speech. It is hateful rhetoric. If you read that post in a vacuum with any of those other groups in place of male/female, many people would find it disgusting. The Muslim/Christian version reads Islamaphobic, without question.

The black/white version is racist.

The gay/straight version is homophobic.

The Muslim/Christian version is Islamaphobic.

The male/female version is sexist.

3 of them aren't allowed. For some reason, just one is. This is not neuroscience.

What if this were a country music forum and blacks were offended?

The reality is that it's not the same for men and women. I find it really hard to believe you actually can think it is when you need only reflect on what films really do consist of. There are many more good roles for men. Women are often just eye candy. Old men are portrayed having relationships with young hot women about 100x more than old women with young hot men.

Last night, we played the Expendables on Netflix. The only women in it were totty.

Jason Statham. Now he's a handsome dude. Fit. A lot of women fancy him. But he's in films to kung fu the **** out of other dudes, to fire guns and look moody. The women in his films are in them to be Statham's girlfriend or the damsel in distress he's saving.

Fast and Furious. Six dudes and one woman, right?

Shall we do police procedurals next?
I am arriving at the same place as yesterday. You banning Ms POG is the same as you banning hollywood, tv and pop music.

Anorexic girl:

By definition of evolution, people are attracted to people who are healthy. Anorexic girl is not healthy. Why should I care about her more than the guy who roids himself to ballcancer?

Hollywood changes, bro.

Being gay used to be a career death sentence, for instance.

TV has rules. Do you think it doesn't? Seriously?

And yeah, pop music is a meat market.

But afaik, we are posting in POG, not making hit records. I don't think it excuses our own behaviour that someone else behaves badly. Do you accept that as a principle in life?

I think this is a really bad road to go down. I don't think you've really tried to understand the concepts of body image we're discussing and it really shows in your posting. It feels like you think you're landing killer blows with diamond-hard logic but tbh it actually seems you don't really get what anyone's talking about.
02-06-2017 , 06:28 AM
Is that his first ban in 13 years?
02-06-2017 , 06:35 AM
In making these reasonable arguments it isn't my goal for you to stop posting i just wanted to take you up on your challenge

I hope you know that.

I don't really think I am behaving badly when consuming hollywood or participating in ms pog.

Well obviously I am not getting what you are trying to sell. It seems to me like domer is on the money. If he's not, well not everyone can be as woke as you(in very recent history), I don't know what to tell you.

The issue is you provided no context to any of them. I provided the context for the Muslim one and it simply is not Islamophobic.

Now. I will grant that miss pog is sexist by its very nature. But that doesn't make karemins post invalid.

The context is that post.

I played fairly and used your groups within the context of that post, which was the challenge.

The result was an Islamaphobic post.

karmarein's post in it's original form was a sexist post.

Its time for you to give someone else a turn. Imho, you failed at the challenge. You haven't given any arguments as to why its ok other than suggesting different scenarios that are not the same or denying that when I use groups you name in the proposed context the results aren't unsavory. I've dissected that with you as much as I care to.

I went back and read your original post and i am still correct. I'm going to sleep and i won't rehash it tomorrow. Gn

72off, I didn't ban you. I have no idea why you're sending me PMs?
