Several people probably have quoted you already but oh well. There are no "morals" they're just made up so we act more civilized. So Hitler wasn't wrong or right.Futurenerd said:Here's a debate topic:
Convince me that Hitler was right.
Your move.
I'm pretty sure it is in J-blazearmoru said:Rape ought to be legalized.
I agree. I think we use "he" and "him" too often when dealing with sexually ambiguous characters.The Thinker said:Here's a good topic: The use of "they" as a non-gender-specific singular pronoun, e.g.
"Someone rifled through my stuff; whoever they are, they're not very stealthy." Or
"I was talking to this person on the internet, and then they insulted me!"
I'm all for it. You?

I'll be back in a bit, I need to investigate this pony business further.Dr Snakeman said:I, too, was going to say something like this. So, yeah, here goes:Kathinka said:i was ninjad by this, i was going for something like "i argue that you are an attention whore by specifying your gender in the thread title. debate me!" though the guy i quoted was more...tactful^^Traun said:Why do you crave attention so much?
I postulate that you are under the impression that being female somehow makes you special, while the truth of the matter is that you share that characteristic with about 48% of humanity. I would argue that your assumption about the denizens of the Escapist forums -that they don't have the opportunity to hold conversations with women on a regular basis- is false and insulting.
I will return with new evidence and theories, SALAD OUT!

Just quoting you for the FYI in the first part of my post. OP is gone, long live Anarchy (and ponies).Frozen Donkey Wheel2 said:You know, you're doing a very bad job of "debating me about anything"....
I know, it made me laugh. Around 60% (random number) of the posts in this thread are "why does being a girl have anything to do with it". By posting that they bump the thread, break the don't be a jerk rule and derail it in one fell swoop. I'm fairly sure the OP meant it like those "ask a ___" threads in that she was suggesting from the start might be femininely (does that word mean what I think it does? It does now) biased.Diligent said:Ok, I don't have anything to contribute debate-wise, but I had to laugh at all the "Why you says you a girl!?!?" posts.
If the title was "Debate a guy about anything! I will debate you!" nobody would bat an eye. Nobody would go "why are you pointing out that you're a guy?!?!"
Am I the only one seeing the irony in this? The exact thing you're railing against is only happening because you're bringing it up and pointing it out.
You are absolutely right, and I am appalled by the number of ponies in this thread. So, just to balance out the numbers a little bit...Scorched_Cascade said:How the hell did this thread get back on track?

Instead she got 60% hate on the title, 10% offensive stuff, 10% questions that would be taxing if not offensive to a girl, 19% ponies and 1% actual answers.
I'm not the OP, but if you want kind of ease into it, try to make small talk about it first. Talk about some actor you find good-looking or something, ask what she thinks about the actor. Possibly lead it into some small talk about attractive people in general and go for it.Booze Zombie said:So, how do I overcome my inability to approach an attractive female and go "I really think you're amazingly attractive" or some very "smooth" line like that?
Shh, Shh! I told everypony to be quiet and act all natural like so no pony would suspect but now you've done it.

My work here is done.
I meant approaching random women who you've no previous experience with, but this also helps, thank you.OldRat said:I'm not the OP, but if you want kind of ease into it, try to make small talk about it first.

Or, you know, do what I did and punch yourself in the balls daily while repeating "You fucking worthless piece of shit, do it or I'll kill me" until you manage to threaten yourself into action.
Neither. The answer is Janeway.ShadowsofHope said:Captain Kirk or Captain Picard?
Answer this very carefully!
How do you feel about america's involvement in the yugoslav war,did you feel it appropriate for america to bomb Serbia even though it was just a civil war amoungst different ethnicities?And was it necessary for the american media to say that serbia was committing most of the war crimes even though historians have proven that war crimes were committed on all sides not just serbia?Salad Is Murder said:Go ahead, I double-dare you.
