Maybe by the response is one of my que's. Take BCG's "Colour of Poverty". 0 responses. This thread, we're up to 99, ah the Great one. Meh, why do I try?
How's your 'effin joke?
The feminist forum deserves better than two men playing territorial games to finish out a thread. I really think the lecturing of feminists by men in the feminism forum on how women are to live their feminism, on which instances of discrimination against women are issues for feminists, and finally on what focusing on one thread in one forum means about their commitment to any other politics, is so crazy i might just have to write a run-on sentence to get it all out of my system.
So you want to run men away from the cause?
I said I'm here to learn. Teach me, don't castrate me?

Dude. You can't be serious.
How do I say it politely, I'm here to learn and for discussion.
Yes, I'm serious.
Well, good.

I haven't lectured anyone. I joined this thread well after certain things happened. I'm not lecturing anyone on classism.
Just brought up a point that perhaps this should be discussed more.
Poverty is my agenda, so forgive me if you think it not worthy.
These women have nothing to do with the struggle "most" women face.
I'm all for supporting "women" but this is the last place I start.
I am done with this thread. It's late. I'm tired.
I can't make the same argument this many times in a row. I just can't. Good night.

Oh well, hoped I was going to learn something, good night.
Thanks to Coyote and Unionist. At this point, the rest of you men are just trolling (except Tommy, who bowed out).

I've been fighting these battles, here and elsewhere, much longer than you have. And unless you are also an unemployed amputee, I am also more "disabled and disadvantaged" than you.
So, I think I am entitled to express my thouhts and observations.
Get of your priviledged high-horse and screw off.
Actually, now that I look at your profile, I've been fighting your battles before you were even born. I deserve nothing but "thank-you"s from you; not criticisms. how dare you[/b]
I have gotten nothing but complaints about this post, and rightfully so.
You don't get to abuse our volunteer moderators in this fashion. Bye.
Everyone else: I was away last night and this thread has been fast-moving, but RevolutionPlease, you were also WAY out of line with your "don't castrate me" post, and you can stay out of the feminism forum for the time being.
If ever a thread needed closing, it's this one.
