mick: no one has ever suggested that bitchiness of the kind being discussed here is an ideal female trait that young girls should be induced to admire and model. uwot: Half the leading ladies in the golden age of Hollywood would qualify. I think you've missed my point, though I can't see exactly whe...

The most important point to note is that aggression, even to the level of sociopathy, is held up by many as an ideal male behaviour. As far as I am aware, no one has ever suggested that bitchiness of the kind being discussed here is an ideal female trait that young girls should be induced to admire ...

Oooh—Another stream-of-misogyny thread!

Mick: You have not even named any of these "creatives". I'm wondering why that is ... RC: To protect them from the kind abuse idiots who have never had an original idea in their entire lives like to direct at true creators. Really? I have never heard of a creative innovator who wanted to r...

Of course there have been individual criminals, but compared to the evils foisted on the world by collectives ... ... like the United State...

Dude, just by not saying anything on the subject I am making more sense that you do. And no, I don't think I have a better version than just shutting the fuck up.
