In fact, it would be most unwise to shoot me, better make sure I drop with the first one, ‘cause you won’t get a second chance…just sayin’. 😉 So you never been in a fight, but if some one shoots you they’d better make it count or they’ll be sorry. Tell me, Mongo, what are you going to do? Sit on them? ---

> [@Bosstrain](#): > > Why don’t you ever take sides at least, am I truly the first to defend him? That’s sad. I guess no one challenges the norm anymore, you all just willingly submit to Hollywood’s influence like mindless drones. Women are not superior as the movies claim them to be, they are, in fact, equal. (yes, Hollywood has everything to do with this discusion, mostly because we wouldn’t be talking about this if it wasn’t for the media) You are truly a fucking idiot. Accidentally crush any mice lately? Nobody has claimed women are superior to men. We’ve been talking about equality all along, fuckbrain. Nice move blaming “Hollywood” for brainwashing us all into believing women shouldn’t be subservient to men, though. We uppity liberals sometimes need to be reminded who controls our thinking for us. ---

I’m curious about **Brazil84** ’s username as well, not because of the numbers, but because the few Brazilian women I know would laugh themselves sick at his ideas. Or does it just again suggest that he wasn’t very invested in his username. ---

> [@Diogenes\_the\_Cynic](#): > > I don’t follow your logic. You don’t seem to be aware of the difference between partnership and subordination. The point is that marriage by its very nature requires each partner to subordinate themselves to the other at least to some extent. So all you are doing is drawing a line and saying “oh no, that’s to much subordination and is objectively wrong!” It’s that last part I have a problem with–you think that where you have drawn the line is the objectively correct place, that your opinion of how things should be done is how they should be done. This carries over to your policy positions–payday loans, for example. ---

> [@Jenaroph](#): > > You’ve got it exactly backwards: An analogous situation would be if people here were saying that **brazil84** ’s view of marriage should be outlawed, which they aren’t. (at least not in this thread; I haven’t read the other one.) People who object to gay marriage are perfectly within their rights to do so, vociferously if they must, but it’s the legal ban on it that is the problem.

> [@Diogenes\_the\_Cynic](#): > > Do you say this about women who live under Shariah law or who “choose” to undergo genital mutilation? The people who “choose” to undergo FGM are rarely, if ever, women, but are instead young girls who “choose” it the same way ten-year-olds choose to go to Church. Also “Shariah Law” and “living under Shariah Law” contrary to popular conception can mean lots of different things from living in a handful of countries where adulterers are executed and women are required to wear the Hijab to countries(including some western ones) where family matters are handled in religious courts to the use of arbitration for family disputes. ---
