Am I old? Is this my turning point where I don't know what them darn kids are talking about nowadays?
I am glad this is as ambiguous and confusing to others as well, I wasn't sure if I wanted to ask.Queen Michael said:Good to hear I wasn't the only one who needs a clarification.tippy2k2 said:...what?

One day I was reading a contact thread with a friend of mine. In the thread some girls were assembling a girls-only chatroom, they required that you post a picture of yourself before joining. My friend asked me if I could give him a picture of myself so he could join it. I sent him a picture of myself and he started chatting with these girls. They just talked about periods though so he left pretty soon. But I kept doing it with other friends; Giving them pictures of myself so they could pretend to be girls on the internet for various purposes, including joining female-only forums, but also convincing guys in videogames to give them free stuff. We have done it on four different occasions now. My friends are more ruthless than me so they can use my looks better than I ever could.tippy2k2 said:...what?

Then I'm going to have to agree with what Ert implied above except I'm just going to say it.Dismal purple said:One day I was reading a contact thread with a friend of mine.

They only wanted to have a secret club, chant "girl power" and maybe talk shit about men.tippy2k2 said:Then I'm going to have to agree with what Ert implied above except I'm just going to say it.Dismal purple said:One day I was reading a contact thread with a friend of mine.

Yes, that is an incredibly dickish thing for you to do (your words, not mine)
At the risk of getting myself my SJW badge (or maybe I already have it? I'm so confused what makes someone a SJW nowadays), I presume there is a reason that those gals want a "women's only" chat or whatever. Allowing your friends to fuck that up is a very not-nice move. Hopefully it's just a harmless dick move where they're just doing it for stupid fun and won't actually affect or hurt anyone doing it but that's the best case scenario. I honestly can't think of one good and valid reason that can occur in that scenario...

Too young to have played Everquest. What was it like?Silentpony said:Why anyone would want to talk to women about their periods is beyond me. Is it sexual? A fetish of some kind? Or are they just posting hurtful things trying to make the women feel bad or gross about their bodies? Like...it seems entire pointless, especially considering I'm sure you can google image search random webcam screens of girls holding up pieces of paper and photoshop in the date.
The free stuff in video games is kinda' funny, but nothing new. Guys have been pretending to be ladies online for as long as I can remember. Ever played Everquest? 'nuff said.
I think mostly dudes just want to know what women are talking about when they're not around. When it fails to be interesting or about them they generally lose interest.Silentpony said:Why anyone would want to talk to women about their periods is beyond me. Is it sexual?

I guess I'm unique in that I couldn't care less what people are saying about me when I'm not around. If they want me to know, they'll tell me. If not, not.Phasmal said:SNIP
I tend not to worry what people are saying when I'm not around. Not because I'm above it, but because if I started worrying I think I'd probably never stop.Silentpony said:I guess I'm unique in that I couldn't care less what people are saying about me when I'm not around.

Same with dreams. Unless I was in your dream keep it to yourself. And if I was...keep it to yourself.
But this whole pretending to be a chick to spy on other chicks seems...voyeuristic.
Is it?Dismal purple said:That's sexist.Phasmal said:or about them
I think they are transcending gender boundaries and getting a look at "the other side". Seeing what it's like.Silentpony said:But this whole pretending to be a chick to spy on other chicks seems...voyeuristic.
I apologize; When I think about it there's nothing explicitly sexist about your statement. The way you phrased it is very common among misandrists though so I guess I jumped the gun.Phasmal said:Is it?Dismal purple said:That's sexist.Phasmal said:or about them
