    What's so funny? His words, that I repeated. Did I miss something?

    What could be said, is that women as a voting block are choosing representation by either representatives (regardless of gender preference or orientation) that don't deliver on promises. But then again, that should be nothing new. A familiar experience to some or most women. So, I guess it comes down to a level of comfort. The plantation is home.

    Ahem. I don't care who chooses what brand of toilet paper in the grocery store. Big money. Corporations. Lobbyists. Men? Women?

    If what I got is privilege, I will gladly pass it on.

    Well, you're certainly entitled to your opinion. :beer:

    crashman Grumpy old man

    :stupid:
    My white male privilege and King Barrys economic recovery got me a 35% pay reduction over the last year and a half to go along with spending over 1/2 my time in a god forsaken frozen wasteland. Fortunately I know where to find sympathy in the dictionary so I am OK. :D Its just every time I hear "white privilege" or "male privilege" I want to throat punch someone. Fortunately both of my daughters agree with me that the word "privilege" when used in this context means "lazy motherfucker who does not want to work for it" so all is not lost. There are a few kids that have not fallen in to the Social Justice Warrior trap.

    Yes and no. I am certainly no SJW, or a feminist for that matter. Every ship on its own bottom, and I mean every ship, no exceptions. Father in Army for 30 years, no sons, mother from some dorf no one ever heard of in Bavaria born during WW2 where they got an orange for Christmas, for some context, that's how we roll. If you middle aged white males do not see that the lives you have lived to now have been to a certain extent (yes we can argue about degree) buoyed because you are white males, well, I view you as myopic, and I'm sad for you, kind of like a beauty queen whose looks have faded and looks back on her pictures and sees how lovely she was, but she didn't appreciate it at the time. You perhaps took it for granted? In any case, all these conversations seem to be about how someone/group is taking something away from you. If you think they're wrong/destructive/etc. why are you letting them? White men are still in charge.

    You sound very zen these days. The first post you put in this thread I was like, did he accidentally post in the wrong thread? Anyway, you sound good. :)

    You have gotten lazy of late. Just a drop in comment here or there.

    to be blunt...a vast majority of the white men still in charge are pandering cunts who fold at the first sight of someone challenging their opinion.

    Stipulated. Whose money is voting them in? Male? Female?

    yes, but one must have the intestinal fortitude to exercise that much loved power the money provides in a manner befitting my gender's status throughout time...ahhhh the good old days of benevolent dictatorships.

    weak bitches are weak.

    Whether its corporations pandering to their customer base, or elected officials pandering to corporations pandering to their customer base....

    as I posted on the previous page, just need to follow the money...

    "Women drive 70-80% of all consumer purchasing, through a combination of their buying power and influence. Influence means that even when a woman isn’t paying for something herself, she is often the influence or veto vote behind someone else’s purchase."

    That was funny, and non-responsive. Who is weak? The voting $$? The elected officials? BTW, I am also in the HPPT church, I forgot my title, hahahahahahahaha...well, maybe I got kicked out by now... :)

    Not lazy. Weary of the complaints about how life is unfair. EVERYONE has to deal with a ration of shit. Privilege is limited to very few, not all white or male, but the truly lazy paint everyone with the same broad brush because it makes them feel better about their own failings.

    As I stated previously, I, and I am sure others, do not give a youknowwhat about who buys what can of branded peas. You are surely not going to equate that quote (and I don't care how many times you quote it) to real, meaningful, power/influence? Just stop.

    sorry if I wasn't clear. I was aiming at the elected officials. anyone who truly has principle, honor and a backbone is essentially unelectable.

    it's been so long since we worshipped properly, I think everyone might be kicked out :)

    Privilege is about cash not sex or race. You can work hard and get some breaks and make sure your kids are privileged if you like.
