Say what you will. Call me whatever you like. Try to put my words into a box but whatever you say, it just doesn't matter.
If you want to be treated like a man act like one. Show yourself to be one.
All of the active members here have agreed with me and either they have the balls to put their names; their god-given legal names, to their words, or they don't.
I NEVER use the phony moniker of a cuck member here for referring ANYTHING philosophical for that would be blasphemy to the very essence of truth and courage. For that is the OVERALL underlying principle of ALL philosophy. No matter what words or opinions, or standpoint you have in relation to a philosophical doctrine afterword.
Over 4,000 posts here at The Forum and I have yet to call another active member a derogatory name - EVEN MORE disrespectful, in my mind, would be to marry a philosophically related thought or response to a cartoon character or other silly, childish moniker.
I LOVE PHILOSOPHY. Ever since I began posting here I respected this forum. Other active members do not need to do this. It's just the way I look at it.
Post in the way you feel. That certainly is A-priori telling...
I was simply pointing out to you a strategic mistake made by you. You obviously feel very strongly about using your real name on the forum. I can respect that. You also wish other people should use their real names and hence your first post. However, you failed to take into account guys like me who believe in gender equality so much that it does not bother them if you call them a woman. You call me a man or a woman, makes no difference to me.
That is why I pointed out the word "coward" to you. If you had called us cowards, then you would have made your point about us being scared. Both men and women can be cowards or fearless. It is not a gender thing. And cowardice is something people don't want to be accused of. So that tack might have worked better.
However, in all this there is another question that "arises". Why is it so important to you that your manhood be acknowledged? Is there some issue you have that you need to address?
Why would you feel less of a man if someone called you a woman? Why is your manhood so fragile?
Is that also the reason for the use of a large font size?
