[Closed] International Men's Day - November 19th

why isn't this during the week when I can laud it over my predominantly female colleagues?

when is international make up another international day day?

What if you are not an International Man?

Is this just another name for Steak & Blowjob day?

Is this just another name for Steak & Blowjob day?

No it's another name for men are 85% of suicides days (among other things).

We need [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/forum/off-topic ]www.STWForumMemberDay.com[/url] ....

Sounds rubbish then

Well that link says pretty much everything I expected; sadly.

Anything that has links to the hateful red pill shite is an instant no from me.

I clicked play on the red pill vid and a bloke with a really red face appeared.

It is an occasion for men to celebrate their achievements and contributions, ........... while highlighting the discrimination against them

Won't be a long list of highlighted things then

you fell in the trap.

16 pages, 3 flounces and a ban.

I know, I fancied a repeat of a thread which only died a few days ago. Get all those downtrodden unfairly treated white men in a huff.

I wonder how people with this mindset make it through a day. Chatterers, I bet they’re chatterers. Circle jerks and chattering; egos and emptiness.

Was he looking flushed?

How about 85% of all suicides are men?

Does that suggest that perhaps there is a problem we ought to be talking about?

Don't we already have a day for that? World Suicide Prevention Day

You presumably want it to be 50/50. Does that make anything better ?
If you want to discuss suicide then fine but what ratio are you aiming for as 85/15 is clearly not working for you?

You're such a *****!

It certainly is something worthy of discussion but don’t try and link it to crap that men are discriminated against because we’re not. We have mental health issues yes, I know I’ve had mine, but whining about discrimination doesn’t actually help solve the problem, asking for help does and that help is not denied to men on the basis of their gender.

You're such a *****!

Thanks, notice you you haven't answered though. The fact you are pointing out that it is 85% presumably means you think it should be closer to equal so we have just as many female suicides as men.

Why not just try and lower all suicides, even if the ratio remains at 85% ?

Genuine guess here. But surely you’d want to allocate a proportional effort to address the issue?

Surely something you already see with certain cancers that disproportionately affect women?

Thanks, makes sense and better than just calling me a ****puffin !

Be good to see the data to see if proportional effort would be the approach

Linking that crap to Movember is well out of order

This is all irrelevant. Unless it’s national pie/sausagebeer//red wine week, as a bloke I truly couldn’t GAF

That’s the way we should mark this momentous day! By questioning why it isn’t about pies, beer, sausages, red wine and possibly sheds or copies of Razzle in hedges!

So why aren't all these neurotic women, who worry about nothing, topping themselves?

Isn't everyday other than 8th March mens day?

Because they’re too agreeable for that nonsense!

They’ve overcome their issues, and in their ecstatic new gender-related empowerment and freedom, have gone and done a photo shoot for all those copies of Razzle that are now being distributed around the nations hedges. Then they’re going to go and grope some poor unsuspecting middle-aged, middle class white blokes on the train home

Don’t say I didn’t warn you!

Why talk about it, we’re men and we know better than open our mouths.

You idiot geetee. You should be embarrassed to be a man and acknowledge your privilege as opposed to ever thinking about problems men face.

If you do ever hear a woman talking about the wage gap myth then do follow Kerley's advice and ask if men taking a pay cut would help them out.

How about 85% of all suicides are men

Mens mental health and suicide is a serious issue @geetee, I support you in raising that. However, the suicide stat is impacted by the fact men are offen more determined and violent in their approach to suicide and are thus more “successful”

Anyway I’ll be celebrating International Mens Day on the basis I can get a pass from the wife 🙂

. It is an occasion for men to celebrate their achievements and contributions, in particular their contributions to community, family, marriage, and child care while highlighting the discrimination against them

I wish your wife would oppress you by changing the wifi password 😉

Can't touch this poster:

Unite and stand up brothers!!!! Throw off your oppressed chains!!!!

I’m dusting off my Supermario outfit! Who are you going as?

Awwh I'm gutted that PaedoRobin has already been taken 😆

If MC Hammer’s in, then so am I!

[img] [/img]

there is only one hammer I want to see in use here

More bollocks from STW's own International Man of Misery. Hooray.

Guys..... we can make a difference here. We could all make an effort to increase the amount of wimminz committing suicide.

Maybe we could use the time we would usually spend discriminating against, and unfairly undermining oppressed white, middle class males more constructively

This could be a win/win! 🙂 a brave new world of gender equality!!!

there's been two swears on this thread so far, one has been repeated 3 times. I'm at work so cannot attempt either of the swears again. Have the rules been changed for intl mens day?

[img] [/img]

I now need to buy a dog just so I can name it *****.

Get two, and call the other one Cockwomble

Guys - how about laying off geetee with the personal attacks? Its getting rather too close to bullying for my liking.

I disagree with him and his views on gender very strongly - but calling him names is not going to help one iota

fortunately most men are able to see thru the bullshit of "mens day"

[img] [/img]

Would you [i]really [/i] want to celebrate anything with this lot.....?

[img] [/img]

They look like they're on a Fruit of the Loom team building exercise....

I agree with the sentiment though, men risk getting forgotten about, and before we know it, women will be running the world.

I know it's a few years old now, but I think there was alot of truth in this

Good job Drac hasn't seen the thread yet. Quite a few breaches of Da Rules so far.

Binners - do yourself a favour and stay away from threads in which Geetee is the OP or at least write something other than you do. You come across as a complete **** and a particularly nasty arsehole. It's not funny to anyone with a modicum of respect for other folk.

I suppose that all hinges on whether you think an individual, and their opinions, are worthy of any respect.

I’m quite a reasonable person. My derision, contempt and mockery are always well earned

Cheers for the advice though. Always gratefully received

I for one am impressed by the new look bad boy Binners.
I assume it is a result of his diet.

It's unnecessary which you probably already know. If I was in the habit of using the report button I would but it's not my style.

For the record I'm not defending the guy, just noting that you seem to make a beeline for him these days and you don't come off well in those interactions.

Just to be clear...

I got a ban for posting a pic congratulating someone for being a dick (fair enough, against the rules), but the abuse geetee1972 gets from the same few posters over and over is much worse yet seems to be perfectly acceptable to the mods.

I guess there are two lots of rules for this place, depending on whether or not you're part of the right clique.

I’ll take it the benchmark for respecting other posters is calling them a *****?

Duly noted

Has he said anything particularly subjective here? I can't find anything.

The bollocks is, as usual, his attempts to disguise his repulsive and twisted propaganda as some kind of worthy cause or "debate".

He gets exactly the amount of respect he deserves on here and I'll happily continue to point out his BS.

See, there you go trying to twist things to suit yourself. Kerley was being deliberately obtuse and trying to twist a point to suit an agenda, it's little wonder Geetee took the bait.

Liking the continual and unchecked use of [i]that[/i] word BTW.

You come across as a complete **** and a particularly nasty arsehole. It's not funny to anyone with a modicum of respect for other folk.

If you think Binners is OTT , and its not without merit, you cannot be that unpleasant about him or you just look daft. It is like shouting stop ****ing swearing you **** you just did what you object to.

I wrote it's how he's coming across not what he actually is. A small but significant difference.

Did you not notice the bit where i accepted that your argument had a point to it?

PS you are coming across as a total tit* - thank god I did not insult you one bit with that 🙄

* Its not what i think i still think you have a point re Binners but that argument is poor in the extreme as hopefully me doing what you did demonstrated. Dont insult folk whilst moaning about folk insulting folk it just makes you look daft

To be fair, I am a bit of a ****! 😀

Will anyone who challenges you be part of a clique and did you not notice the bit where i accepted that your argument had a point to it?

No, that's just absurd. I frequently disagree with folk on this forum and don't view them as part of a clique or in-crowd.

Anyway, I just edited the clique bit but you already posted.

I was wrong but there is some substance to the whole clique thing that a few folk keep referring to.

Editted out also and yes there is and indeed bullying here

I have to remind myself of kaesae when these threads start but i do find MRA and some of the groups that poster links to as deeply offensive [ and i have taken the piss myself here so I shall also apologise]

Attacking him to this level [ the OP not binners] is not helping IMHO

Heh

I'll just leave the last post as unedited so as not to confuse other folk.

You're cool, Junkyard. I'm not looking for a scrap with anyone...

🙂

Me neither and I agree with your broad point

The bollocks is, as usual, his attempts to disguise his repulsive and twisted propaganda as some kind of worthy cause or "debate"

Quite. Moaning about a bit of swearing is a triviality by comparison.

I'm well impressed with the way that km79 has seen the ban hammer line and sailed so far across it that is over the horizon.

I have to admit, the little video did make me laugh

Just came here to confirm that yes, it's the same forum users all over a "sexism" thread! ?

Yawnsy

I'm well impressed with the way that km79 has seen the ban hammer line and sailed so far across it that is over the horizon.

Is that the horizon on a flat earth or a spherical earth?

You gotta play the ball not the man though

I disagree. This isn't year zero, where we ignore someone's entire posting history.

You're perfectly free to do what you like, but shouting down everything someone says regardless of if it's objectionable or not because you don't like them isn't right IMHO.

Had enough of this thread off to top my coffee up.....

WARNING - really boring post

Junkyard » PS you are coming across as a total tit* - thank god I did not insult you one bit with that

* Its not what i think i still think you have a point re Binners but that argument is poor in the extreme as hopefully me doing what you did demonstrated. Dont insult folk whilst moaning about folk insulting folk it just makes you look daft

Don't know how but I missed that.

I don't feel insulted by the first bit TBH, it's just your opinion.

If i'd have written...

[i]Binners - You're a complete **** and a nasty arsehole etc.[/i]

...then I'd have made myself look daft, as you put it. But I didn't. I wrote...

[i]Binners - You come across as a complete **** and a particularly nasty arsehole.[/i]

Very different, as I attempted to explain earlier. I guess if I address you in the same manner as the second example then you'd probably feel insulted. I don't and probably wouldn't unless it came from more than one person (that isn't of the same clique as the original critic, obviously :wink:) but then I'm confident in what I'm trying to express and feel capable of getting across my point without misunderstanding, though I'd be inclined to re-read my post if I thought a lot of folk thought I was being or coming across as a dick or something. If you feel I was trying to insult Binners then that's probably more to do with you than it is me.

No need to labour this point any more than this, just missed the above quoted post and trying to make myself clear and avoid the accusation that I'm a hypocrite. I'm sure I'm quite capable of being that but not in this instance.

You know when you hear those boorish UKIP voting nobheads, sat at the bar in your local start a sentence with “I’m Not a racist, but......”

Well replace the word ‘racist’ with ‘misogynistic and sexist’ ( as well as many others I can think of) and that’s where we are.

So there you go. Defend him if you like. Seems quite the fashion nowadays to flirt with opinions Jim Davidson would be proud of. Welcome back to 1978

If you’ve got an issue with me having an issue with that issue...

This sort of thing, right?

You're not the victim, Binners. No need for more theatrics.
