MANY of us consider what's right for ourselves, but don't force it on, or expect it of, everyone else.

But I can see that you're trying to present a justification for being an ass and screaming at everyone to use their real names, rather than noticing and admitting what an ass you've been. You can insist "that is the way it is" with your delusional sense of authority... because the whole world must surely match what's in YOUR head.

The irony of you whining about your right to represent yourself by doing every crazy-ass, demented thing you want to do on this public website -- and then you berate people for how they choose to represent themselves... ???

Oh, is there some kind of ball you're batting around in your reality? Makes sense. I have an idea what you can do with it...

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?

What you are referring to apeared upon a page prior to this one so apparently you forgot what I said.

FYI - You can post in ANY manner you wish here.


That is none of my business.


I'm just stating how I look at things; how I respect this forum & the members here.



Again, POST IN WHATEVER MANNER THAT FITS YOU.

Your memory going?

...which is fine BTW.

When wasn't it? But your opinion has no import or weight as you clearly think there is as issue of some sort.

This is me[/url]. Watching YOU![/size]

Is it?
Well I'm pleased that lacewing showed me how to turn off your subconscious as it's a tawdry thing.

No, Bill, you weren't.

.




Apparently you hadn't seen my post in relation to this:




I do ALL of the things that you have listed above - WITHOUT a gun strapped to my side.


...guess I'm more comfortable & confident in my manhood.

And as far as my gun thread, I appreciate the fact that you were one of the few active posters here to respond but I was actually looking for a more philosophical response...thank you, anyway.

"Apparently you hadn't seen my post in relation to this:"

I saw it and found/find it not worth a response.

"I was actually looking for a more philosophical response"

Again: no you weren't

Don't have time to click a related link or read a looooong article.

Can you sum-it up for me?

I'm HOT on the trail on another thread that I started under the Political Philosophy heading.


Thanks - GOTTA GO!

Basically the article says (from a study) that anonymity doesn't make much of a difference to trolling.

I have not called you a troll...other active members may have called you one but - I HAVE NOT CALLED YOU A TROLL!


I have noticed that other members have called you MANY derogatory names. They are pretty rough on you... I must admit, I enjoy almost rock-star status here so I can only imagine how you must feel. Perhaps thankfully you can actually shed that phony moniker you hold now & festoon yourself to another phony moniker.


Any which way, good luck and rest assured I will never call you a derogatory name.



Hang-in there Sunshine!

Actually I've never said you called me a name. The article was in response to Lacewing and it's for information.

That'll be that misogynistic manhood would it?

That's why you put jiggling bums on it was it?

Well...actually,...was hoping fellow active members here would have focused upon the facts that guns were being fired. Might remind you THIS IS A PHILOSOPHY FORUM.



Might want to try to respond to the original post in a philosophical way...just sayin...
