    Hmm, I've never heard of that. I've heard more about ASD people tending to be overly literal in their interpretations than interpreting people as being sarcastic.

    Like I said elsewhere -

    Masculinity and femininity - what society prescribes that they are as gender roles - only hold as long as the person strongly identifies themselves as either woman or man - that is, as long as health, wealth and youth allow for such an identification and make it meaningful.

    In poverty, illness, old age these identifications break down, they cannot be maintained and are not meaningful anymore.
    Then, different principles of engagement may set in.

    Ever heard the term 'fish wife'? Look it up on google and we'll have a little chat about whether or not your 'take' on gender roles has any basis in reality.

    Have a look also for the terms WAGs and 'trophy wives'. I'm trying to decide which of the two you are.

    Why don't you describe it to me.

    Reverting to personal insinuations only shows your true quality.

    Look up retard or stunted and decide which of the two you are.

    Gad, you people are pathetic.
    Is this all you want to do with your internet time?
    Do you actually want to think?

    Malakas. You see you did exactly what was expected of you too. That was not to think; but to react.

    Now then:

    'Fish Wife' is a collective term for a certain group of women living and working in Britain the 18th/19th century; literally speaking they were 'sellers of fish' but the term was also applied to any women involved in the fishing industry in Britain. The term 'fish wife' was probably first applied to women working in the main fish market in Bermondsey in London. These women were said to be coarse and somewhat vulgar and smelled quite strongly, of fish! They often found themselves on the outskirts of society and thus were freed of the usual constraints placed their female contemporaries.

    From what I've discovered thus far Fish Wives were a force to be reckoned with. They were fiercly protective of one another; strong of arm and stomach and, let's say, didn't suffer fools gladly; especially if those fools were men. They were bawdy and ribald, smoking and drinking with impunity. Some of them even wore trousers! I suppose because they were so far removed from 'polite society' they were able to live as they wanted pretty much without interference. And live they did by all accounts though by today's standard their lives would be considered very hard.

    So much for your biological imperatives, then Malakas? There are more historical examples like this if you'd like to hear about them. They don't quite fit the mould of female that you like to peddle so much.

    Anyways:

    Nowadays the term fish wife is used to describe someone who is gossipy and shrewish; such an insult (!) to the women who defied the stereotypes so readily imposed upon them. Such was then as is now.

    And so to the simpering WAGs and trophy wives hanging on the arms of their smirking 'alpha' mates. Sadly a sight too regularly seen; a sign of the times.

    The trouble is fellas it's so easy to be drawn into the simpering and the smirking and the sneering and the oh I'm oh so much better than you because (my tits are big, my teeth are white and look at this big dowgie on my arm)...brigade. Ah but then equally easy to become a fish wife (oh so out on the fringes so bawdy so out there)

    And if we are not too careful here on the internet and in our everyday lives all we will become is a parade of cariacatures; fish wives and WAGs lending a sprinkle of salt or a shiny sequin to the cowards standing at our elbows.

    So Malakas. You and your 'queen' what are you? WAG/trophy or fish wife for the scipeddlars?

    For the record I'm a stunted retard. The little runt that was kicked out of the nest.

    You are so simple, sniffy.
    These women, dear girl, were defended by an entire system of law and order.
    Given a less controlled environment their big mouths would soon be silenced.
    Get it?
    Like feminists yelling and screaming and making themselves annoying.
    There's an entire framework of masculine power protecting their ass.

    Have you read anything I've written or are you too dense to have it sink in?

    This forum is a perfect example.
    Idiots run around mouthing off, childen taunt and why?
    Are they brave?
    no, there's an administration and distance protecting them from the consequences of their actions.
    They haven't learned fear because they live in a sheltered environment and they take this as evidence of their quality.

    Deary, that's my position. In a world where certain activities are repressed and forbiden, one is forced to use the only ones available to him.

    and what are you doing now, stupid?
    Is this not your feeble attempt to imply that you are better?

    Lead the way sista!!!
    Start by actually posting an interesting personal opinion.

    Oh little bitch, your options leave me in a swoon.
    I would prefer to be a trophy-wife...how about you?

    And here you are gossiping and trying to prove your value.

    Fish for sale!!!!

    Touche! Feel better now?

    My personal opinion malakas is that you are wrong in your assessment of gender roles. Surely you can glean that from my post. I have read your argument a numberr of times in different forms and on different forumses. Yes I do understand it and there are aspects of it relating to materialism and conformity that I agree with but as we are discussing gender roles here that's what I am responding to.

    Hmm You come across very much as 'do as I say not as I do'.

    The entire system of law and order in Britain in the 18th/19th century did not protect women like the Fish Wives. In fact it didn't protect women at all. The system of law and order in Britain at that time did the opposite it PROTECTED MEN. The fish wives and others like them lived outside the law. They protected themselves with their nasty mouths, their fishy stink and with their very sharp fish knives.


    And if you believe for a moment that the law and the system today protects women you are very, very much mistaken.

    And for the record mark two. I would be one hell of a trophy! People would certainly look if I was on someone's arm.

    I don't think I am better than anyone else but I know I'm as good as. There is a subtle difference between the two.

    A women can be physically tough without being masculine.

    Even young girls. The gymnasts who compete in the Olympics are physically stronger, more flexible and coordinated than most adult males.

    And yet, most of them still retain an essentially feminine aura.

    http://www.abc.net.au/science/news/health/HealthRepublish_892229.htm

    "Lesbian women are double as likely to have an imbalance of sex hormones, researchers have found.

    Lesbians are more than twice as likely as heterosexual women to have a hormonal imbalance that causes infertility, a British study has found, linking for the first time lesbian sexual orientation with hormonal makeup."

    Wow, really? Because I hear the constant reminder at least once a month that men are physcially stronger than women and no woman would beat a man in a boxing match.

    Men are way stronger than women. But to say that no woman could beat any man in a boxing match is a stupid thing to say. It sounds like a strawman a feminist would use to make it seem like the likely original point, which is that men are way stronger, is erroneous. Well, it's not. It's extremely true.

    Who would really think that a professional bodybuilder woman who's trained in Muay Tai kick boxing couldn't beat up a Bill Gates?

    If you pretend to atract women, you must act as a man. For the bad or for the good, you must do it. Its what i see.

    Are you a VERY compreensive man, that listens to women problems? Are you a very sweet person that attend to women desires? Are you sensitive and cry when seeing a very good movie? So, you will get troubles. ITs what i see.

    Women seek for guys with balls. They will tell you "i want a sensitive man" but what they say is due to our society. What they say is not what they want.

    Is that like the "they mean yes when they say "no"" kind of philosophy?
