Women know it all until they need air in their tires.

What asshole thing to say. I assume men know how to do all things? That this world you speak of has no man requiring the aid of a woman? Your mother agrees I'm sure.

If she were above ground I'm sure she would agree. Most times you gals end up with less air after filling.

I certainly would but my arthritis doesn't allow me to do many things effectively.

Your mom sounds like a great "gal".

And the asshole hits keep coming. You should put out an album.

Good idea! Here's a few more cuts.

"Rear view mirrors are not for makeup dear"
"Do these jeans make me look fat?"
and the venerable
"Bad hair day blues"

Will there be any titles on your album about your feelings of inadequacy, your penis envy, your profound insecurities about your masculinity, your inability to raise women to being your equal even though they have limitations no less or more than men have?

If not then maybe one about how very small you are.

Woman are certainly my equal, but satire rules Anandtech politics.

Feel free to cut an album.

That's rich coming from you, gramps. You view women as mere flesh piles to suffer your perversions and molester-hands.

You have no idea. Whipper Snapper.

So now I'm a pervert and a molester? I guess when you have nothing else you always resort to name calling like the child that you are.
LOL

'Ey, if it talks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck. And if it's sexually aggressive, it's probably a drake.

I was looking for something else entirely and came upon this article from 2011

http://thefeministagenda.blogspot.com/2011/03/scylla-and-charybdis-or-female.html

My favorite Philosophy professor ever of all times would often start class with this phrase: let me tell you a story.

So...let me tell you a story.

Once upon a time there was a beautiful sea nymph named Scylla. Everything was all sunshine and rainbows for Scylla until one day Poseidon, the god of the sea fell in love with her. This angered his wife, Amphitrite, who poured a poison into the pool that Scylla bathed in. The poison turned her into a monstrous multi-headed (yet perky-breasted) creature who lurked forever after under the rocks in the Strait of Messina (between Sicily and Italy), nomming on sailors who steered too close to the rocks.

Meanwhile...

Once upon a time there was a beautiful sea nymph named Charybdis. She was the daughter of Poseidon and Gaia. Everything was all sunshine and rainbows for Charybdis until one day Zeus became angry with her. It seems that she habitually helped her father reclaim land from Zeus by riding the high waves Poseidon would stir up in his storms, consuming land and houses. For this Zeus turned her into a monstrous creature in the form of a whirlpool that lived in a cave across the Strait of Messina from Scylla. Three times a day the gaping hole (get it?) of Charybdis' whirlpool would open up and consume any sailors who steered too close to her cave.

Together Scylla and Charybdis created a terrible hazard for sailors passing through the Strait. If they steered too close to either monstrous female, they would be devoured.

There's a lot to be said about female sexuality and Scylla and Charybdis. In the ancient Greek worldview, women could endanger (in the male view) men in oh-so-many ways. They could endanger them by being beautiful and seductive, or by remaining loyal to another man. The simple act of being (or appearing to be) available to a man could bring down destruction on a woman. The simple act of being (or appearing to be) unavailable to a man could bring down destruction on a woman. And the hazard of both scenarios lent itself to this myth in which somehow the men had to find a way to navigate a careful path between the two dangers.

So here we are in America in 2011, and what could this have to do with us? Well....

When you have young daughters you suddenly become an especially keen observer of the forms female sexuality takes in our culture. No matter what message you try to convey to them, your voice is practically drowned out by the multitude of messages (both explicit and implicit) they're constantly exposed to. And as others have pointed out, there are basically two different ways to be a female sexual being in our culture. You can be the pornified sexual object who exists solely for the male gaze and to fulfill male desires but has no independent sexual desires of your own. The other option, of course, is to be the prudish gatekeeper required by the abstinence-only, purity types. This kind of sexual being also has no desires of her own, but only engages in sexual acts to please her man. Since she doesn't have the uncontrollable sexual desires that her male counterpart does, it's her job to "just say no." Of course these are extreme versions of the options available, but a survey of the images of female sexuality that are ubiquitous in our culture reveals that these are by far the most prevalent and powerful.


So these are the Scylla and Charybdis of contemporary modern female sexuality*. And somehow our daughters have to navigate a course through these hazards as they grow and explore their developing sexuality. They must not be too available to men. They must not be unavailable either. They must be pleasing and accomodating. They must not give in to male desire, thus defiling their pure bodies, but must charm and cajole men into being a "better" versions of themselves. On the other hand, they must not be too charming and accommodating or they might get themselves raped. And so it goes.

I wish I could believe it was possible for my girls to avoid this particular Strait of Messina altogether. I wish there was a way for them to navigate through calmer, less hazardous waters, as they grow and develop and learn about themselves and the world. I wish there was a place that was open yet safe, where female sexuality wasn't rigidly scripted, and girls could approach their sexuality free of guilt or shame or coercive cultural narratives, but with caution and respect for the power of sexual experiences. I wish, I wish, I wish....


*(And even when female sexuality is portrayed as anything other than hetero, these paradigms still dominate. In the pornified version of female sexuality, lesbian desire is merely a performance for the male gaze, and in the purity version it's an unnatural perversion which one can learn to overcome.)

so these drumpf supporters, who openly and proudly support drumpf, draw the line with supporting moore, but drumpf supports moore and has had more women file complaints about him, and there's hard evidence that drumpf has a sexual predatory nature, but all that should be forgiven because... taxes?

If Moore wins, I think that's the message republicans are sending. America is going to run out of LUBE!!!

@imported_tajmahal you swore you'd do better to be a better person!

Did you read it? You should read this one by my favorite scientists.
https://judithcurry.com/2017/12/10/girls-rules/

"The #MeToo movement is spawning considerable reflection in academia. Here are some reflections and advice from a senior female scientist (moi) who came up through the academic system during the bad old days of the 1970’s and 1980’s, and who has mentored many young female scientists as they navigate the professional world of academia.


The problems in academia have been articulated in a recent op-ed published in Science by Robin Bell and Lora Koenig: Harassment in Science is Real. Also an article published in the Chronicle of Higher Education." ................

It's a good article.

You lie boy, on the 4th page post #81 of the Moore thread I stated the charges rang true and I wouldn't support Moore and that he should drop out. So go screw yourself you lying sack of garbage.
