CALLING OUT SEXISM AGAINST WOMEN IS NOT THE SAME AS BEING SEXIST AGAINST MEN
Can we maybe drop this and agree that sexism and any similar discriminations are Bad Things™ because this multi-thread fight is retarded.
I notice this mostly being thanked by people arguing against Gillian I'm actually kinda more on her and Tyvon's and Algony's side I just didn't want to get wrapped up in this.
I've read all of your posts, and the tones with which they are written are so insanely anti-male I don't even really know where to begin. Maybe it isn't what you meant, but your incredible lack of tact has driven some seriously hard hitting undertones into every venomous word that drips from your mouth.

I dunno if he did, but I did.
You seem to be taking the approach of "let me handle this because I am a woman," which is quite sexist on its own.
The Mod Challenge in itself is possibly one of the most sexist things that I've seen on this forum.
When was there a mod challenge? What is going on? Did all this happen in Koopaul's thread?
WHO BANNED SENGIR WTH.

Yes.I.did. Women have just as many rights as men, and I for one am sick of acting like the Female population is abused by the system.

No, it's not "sexist," it's "being smart and knowledgeable."
That's like saying a black person talking about how bad black oppression is is "racist."

Lack of tact?
She's talking about
sexism, a problem that is
female oriented because we are in a
male-dominated world. This is a fact.
Speaking from the perspective of an
open-minded, straight member of the male gender, Gillian is
not being sexist towards men by describing sexism that is
done by men.
I honestly don't understand why this is so hard to grasp for anybody. Really, I don't. It's legitimately mindboggling.
EVERYBODY SHUT THE FUCK UP AND CALM THE HELL DOWN
This is getting ridiculous. One thread today caused the entire forum to just kind of spiral out of control, and now we're starting to bring back that sort of passive aggressive hate in this thread? Please, shut up and just chill out for a bit. I haven't been here all day, and I haven't seen exactly what's gone on, but from what it looks like, everyone's being completely moronic.
Apparently Sengir was banned because of a "mod challenge?" Oh, wow. Didn't realize we were back in Spamhaul, Grooveman! You don't throw that kind of stuff at your members, especially what you were asking of them. That's unjust, against the rules of this forum, and just outright dumb to be quite honest. Kind of seems like a stab at trying to get rid of members you dislike without them actually breaking the rules! We'll deal with this in the mod forum, because honestly, this kind of behavior is kind of childish-- and that's going for everyone.
I have no literal clue what happened to the Happy and Not Happy threads, because the mod logs show nothing, so we're going to look into that and figure out just what is going on, because for some reason everyone is freaking out after everything went to hell today. And, frankly, it's really irritating to have to seep through all of this debating and argument and try to pull some kind of conclusion from it, especially when half of it is just whining from both parties.
We're going to look into what's going on and tell you soon, because most of us staff are seriously out of the loop of what's happened here today, but I really need everyone to just stop insulting each other, stop starting pointless arguments, and just calm down while we get things sorted out. Thanks.

We're a lot more equal than we were way back when but that's not to say some things still aren't stacked against women.
Discussion about sexism sure makes this forum go ape shit.
oh, the Feelings threads
If the mods didn't take care of it
welp
it's a database hiccup, threads should be back in a day or two *mudslings around topic and points out all sexuality in forum media, gets sniped by DeM PoStAz*
EDIT: Not even going there after adam's post.
