		<description><![CDATA[Damn, you did that with the retarded laws of what she could have said in terms of rape allegations? I&#039;m impressed.

That kind of thing would be a serious notch, but not one that&#039;s worth risking for my taste. I&#039;d rather go for a girl that is less likely to file rape and less likely to be believed.

&quot;I&#039;m asexual, all my friends know this! Then this bad, EVIL man seduced me after just half a beer that inhibited my ability to say no!&quot;

Ugh, nightmare.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#039;Asexual females&#039; really is an expression that devoids the women of any responsibility for their life choice (as opposed to herbivores). Since memes are based on language an expression needs to be created to fully do justice to this phenomenon, particularly since it seems to piss the feminists to no end.

		<description><![CDATA[Yep, one of the cheapest and sleaziest debating tactics is to claim &#039;racism&#039;, &#039;sexism&#039;, Islamaphobia, religious bigotry, etc., sometimes with hysterics and an air of righteous indignation. It&#039;s a lowball attempt to end the debate, rather than further it. It&#039;s deflection, not debate nor discussion. It makes the person have to defend himself, and gets the subject and person off topic. When having to fend off the charge of being a &#039;racist&#039;, &#039;misogynist&#039;, Islamophobe, etc most clam up, spend the next few minutes defending themselves and convincing others that they aren&#039;t. All the while the debate effectively ends.  

Sadly, it often works unless one calls out the one(s) making those charged claims. 

The other tactic now used, most often by Leftists and Islamic groups is to attend lectures by speakers, and shout them down so they can&#039;t speak. The muslim students at UC Irvine who shouted down the Israeli ambassador are one of the more recent incidents of this silencing tactic. One needn&#039;t be a supporter of Israel to see how anti-free speech that tactic was. One can find other examples as well. 

Your reference to homosexuality being a &#039;choice&#039; and not a genetic and biological trait is interesting because I share the same view. I just don&#039;t buy that it&#039;s biological, rather if one looks at the history of homosexuality, it is most often occurs in the contexts of sexual abuse and abuse of power vis-a-vis slave vs. master, Greek male vs. catamite, etc. If that is the case then it makes homosexuality a situational social construct if not a belief system, like slavery or cannibalism.   

If homosexuality is a belief system, and that in itself makes it a belief system, little different from Christianity, Islam, Capitalism, Marxism, etc. and subject to criticism and protected by the 1st amendment. The critic is under no compunction to conform to the subjects idea of fairness. If the feminists, homosex activists, plug-ins, white knights, et al. don&#039;t like it, then they don&#039;t believe in free speech. 

Regardess Rollo, keep up the good work.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Those people don&#039;t give a shit about tolerance. They are quick to criticize you for not accepting an &quot;alternative&quot; lifestyle, but the second you point out an alternative point of view you will see just how tolerant they are. It is ALL about maintaining and advancing the feminine imperative. 

In order to do that they MUST maintain a system of smoke and mirrors to obfuscate the truth. Pretty easy to do when everything that supports their warped agenda sounds good and logical to the majority of the general public who lack the capacity for critical thought.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recent example: Cynthia Nixon (&quot;Sex &amp; the City&quot;) declaring that her homosexual lifestyle was a &quot;choice&quot; recently. That has the gay-rights community up in arms. As you said, it&#039;s not about the argument itself, it&#039;s about the existence of dissent itself which has become intolerable to the &quot;rights&quot; groups.

Never mind that when the gay rights movement started, homosexuality (or any sexuality) was trumpeted as a choice. This backfired, of course, because it made them seem deliberately deviant in the eyes of homophobes. By the 90s, homosexuality was no longer a choice but an ironclad genetic trait. So when you have Ms. Nixon taking ownership of her decisions, well, you see what happens. She&#039;s already backtracking.

On an episode of Penn &amp; Teller&#039;s Bullshit!, a leading climate scientist said, &quot;There is no debate on global warming.&quot; To which Penn interjected, &quot;Bullshit; there should always be debate.&quot;]]></description>
