From the forum arch-nemesis thread:


Anyways, drj: I think I remember him arguing with Memphis in one of the "woman's Atlas" threads, so him.


You can tell that we get along spectacularly.

Although, despite my overall feelings about him, I love this sig:

Liberal white men are often surprised to find that voting for Obama does not necessarily mean you aren't racist and being pro-choice and supporting Hillary Clinton does not necessarily mean you aren't misogynist.

While I certainly don't claim to fully understand what it's like to be a woman or an ethnic minority I at least understand that it's a problem

Being a woman/minority is a problemHuh That's very rude! You trolling us?  

You know full well what he meant, and you're deliberately misinterpreting this quote.

Once again I ask where was Gustaf and his white knighting after those Sandra Fluke threads? Funnily some of his least favorite posters (including opebo and Lief) were calling out the misogyny then.

Well, I would exactly call what opebo was doing "calling out the misogyny":

I have to admit, it was one of the funnier parts of that overall nauseating thread.

I have no idea what he means. There are aspects of being a woman that I'm sure are challenging just as there are aspects of being a man that pose difficulty. To be frank, I'm not enamored with the idea of getting shipped off to war. That doesn't make being a man a problem. Nor is being a women or Hispanic or whatever some giant cross to bear. And it is extremely insulting to suggest that it is. But I think it tells you a lot about his mindset. I'm sure Gus would not appreciate being told that being Swedish is a problem. I would certainly never make that claim.

It's beyond obvious that he meant it's a problem in that it puts you at an inherent disadvantage in society compared to being a white male in a comparable position.
