Argued with a Sexist Today...

[TheSentinel]

I'm just saying, I wasn't there, but I can understand this guys position. Ever seen Mr. Deeds? The scene where he punches the guy in the face for cursing in front of Winona Ryder? Kinda like that.

EDIT: Wow, guy above me. You sure are EDGY and FRESH. Can you teach me how to be just as FRESH and EDGY as you?

Yeah, I understand it as well. He really could have handled it in a better, more civilized manner. He had good intentions, he just needs to understand when and when not to be confrontational. This was not one of those time, and he really made a fool out of himself for it.

Normally, it's chicks and blacks who act that way, is he a ginger?

 

[jamradar]

Congrats, you handled it much better than I would have. In arguments over stupid little stuff like this I would not stop until he either walked away or gave into me and admitted he was wrong. He was really the only one offended (or at least pretended to be) by what you said. But he then proceeds to tell other people what they are and are not offended by, that pisses me off.

 

[Seydaman]

Ehh, i can understand him as well.
But he was a jerk for reacting the way he did.

It just comes from the mindset that women cant speak up for themselves, and its also some people have been raised to be extra respectful around women.
Doesn't mean they are sexist, its just the way they were raised and sometimes its hard to break habits you formed as a kid.

As for me, iv never really come across someone like that.

Of course when you're raised mostly on the internet your perception of everything is
WEEEIIIIRRRDDDD........

LOLOL.

Anyway, doesn't sound like a sexist.. just a loud mouth idiot.

Looks like someone has their troll face on right now.

[redeemer09]

He wasn't really being sexist, he was just being an idiot. I don't think he really did anything to offend either sex. I can see where you're coming from, but that's not what I would call it.

And I applaud you for not yelling back and starting a fight like so many others would have done. I think I can see who the real gentleman was in this situation.

A-hem.

*Brushes off suit*

*Straightens tie*

Gentlemen.

i see what you did there

I have done this before. I create a scene just for the hell of it. I am a troll in real life. You would be shocked at just how easy it is.

Let me just say, if she had come to me and told me that I was being offensive to her, I would have apologized without hesitation, even if I didn't exactly agree that the context of the word was offensive to her or not. Hell, if he had come up to me and spoke in a clam and considerate manner that he didn't appreciate my language, I would have readily obliged.

This is where you and I are different. I don't apologize for saying a word that is arbitrarily considered "offensive" or "vulgar".

Trust me, in real life, I'm not confrontational by a long shot. My friends joke about how I'm a saint. But if we met in real life, the moment I knew you were trollin' me, I'd be more than a match for you. >

Girls are helpless creatures that need a man to protect them. Didn't you hear in the 1800's they were worried trains would scare them to death? Simple minded creatures, that need a MAN to protect them. I've never ONCE seen a woman do anything special like you know go to space or speak up. They can't speak up if they're offended or do protests.

^Is being sarcastic, and not serious, and protecting self from misunderstandings.

Seriously, people are morons, if this guy did what he did to my sister? She'd wreck him in more ways than one. She scored second highest in NYU and got the presidents award, and rules her house with an iron fist. She doesn't need protecting. I've seen men that need protecting, like the fellow mentioned here, he'll get stepped on if he's not careful.

Treating women differently from men because they are women is sexist. I don't care about the context, or how you were raised. These are just excuses. EDIT: So the next time you see a woman punch a man, and he doesn't punch back, call him a "sexist" or a "pussy" (because he certainly is one of these things).

That being said, it is nearly impossible to NOT be sexist. Most people treat the genders differently for one reason or another. Personally, I tend to show preferential treatment towards females because I find them more atractive and pleasant to be around than men.

YOU ARE SO EDGY TEACH ME TO BE COOL LIKE YOU

The problem is I am subtle. I trolled an English prof of mine for an entire semester before she figured it out.

And remember: if they don't wear rollers in bed they are clinically insane. I follow the DSM I because it was done right!

Rollers?! You sexist bastard! You forgot the skin cream!

I think you are wrong in terms of the word. ;P
Hal is right.

I once had a girl in my highschool a few years back as me my opinion of a girl in her class. I didn't know the girl she was asking about personally, but I explained what I had heard. Now, I'll need to explain some things before I continue this story. I'm not racist or sexist. I'm a white guy, but some of my closest friends over the years have either been from other countries or women, or both.

Anyway, I explained that she had something of a bad reputation in the school because she ( a white girl) seemed to only date black guys. I also explained that I didn't know if it was true, but that's what other people thought of her.

The next day, I went into a computer lab to work on a report, and she was in there with some of her friends and they started calling me racist because of my remark. I turned to them as said, "I could care less who you date, it's up to you. If you're not smart enough to figure out that I simply told the other girl what I had heard, then you don't need to be speaking to me." After that, they pretty much shut up.

Also, as for the sexist thing. I think women should be treated well, sure, but not because they're women. I treat everyone fairly well unless they're just being jerks. I am tired, however, of women wanted to be treated equally by society and then turning around and wanting special treatment. I'm not saying it's all of them. Or even half of them. But there are those that do that, and it annoys me. I'm all for treating women equally. That means in all aspects. Which leads me to another problem I have with the whole, "Women deserve special treatment" thing. I know I'm going to catch crap for this so let me explain it further.

I've either been hit by (several times mind you) or seen women hit other guys and get off simply for being women. Legally speaking, I'm within my rights to defend myself, but if I ever did and it went to court, the jury would see me as a woman beater and it would be over. I'm not saying men should beat up on women. I'm just saying that women shouldn't get away with stuff like that. I saw a girl land a brutal kick to a poor guy's groin for no other reason than he was trying to help her out when she was upset. He passed out from the pain, and she didn't get in trouble at all. Where's the justice in that?

Charming young lady. What I meant is that women look for reasons for calling sexist whenever they get the chance like black people make up reasons for crying about racism anytime someone says something bad about a black person. I felt it was a similar situation.

Drunk Ninja, you might as well just post the picture again, he didn't get it the first time.

If he was honest he would have said "What you said sir has offended me" but instead, like most drama queens, he made it about someone else so he could make a scene about it.
Useless. If I was a believer in eugenics, I would have marked that man for death myself. Thankfully I'm enlightened enough to understand that even idiots can breed geniuses. Unfortunately this guy is an idiot and an asshole, and definitely not a genius. If he were, he might think twice before butting into another person's conversation especially when he doesn't know the people involved. You sir are commended for not getting up and knocking this dude's teeth out for getting involved in shit that he has no business with in the first place.
I'm usually a non-violent person, but for some reason people who I don't know butting into my conversations irritates me enough to want to knock them the hell out. Thus my rule of thumb: don't bother people you don't know because you have no idea how psycho they might be.

How 'bout this one?

A little closer to the source material?

You are correct. He is incorrect. Morale Restored.

I see why he would say that though.
