It seems like there's a lot of that here. Maybe most of it is to do with biterness. Aspie guys holding a grudge against the female population, we've all been there. Maybe its cause a lot of aspie females can be over sensetive, if you say one bad word about any woman you're a "misogynist". A bit like some members can label you a bigot etc if you have a different opinion to the norm. I'm not sure having a women's forum, while there isn't a men's one, helps. I think it'd create a lot of tension if things were the other way round. Its a shame people have to go to war with each other here, considering its meant to be a support site.

I generally steer clear of the war of the sexes. It's pointless and just hurts feelings on both sides.

We're all human, and at the core want pretty much the same things.

People have to remember that when bitching about the "perfect NT's" too.

it's pretty dismissive to decide that you don't have much time for feminists. we are individuals who even disagree with each other, so it's not like there is a unified feminist agenda. it's kinda like saying you don't have time for australians or something - it's too diverse and broad of a group to simply disregard.

There seems to be a common misconception that feminism is a homogenous movement

Well said.

It's funny when women get upset with me for telling them to stop being sexist. I've even had a few say women are incapable of being sexist. I was just like "Uh... what?" and walked away.

Stupidity is too easy to poke fun at sometimes.

:lol: No joke, I have met a woman who claimed that only females are pure Human beings, as initially we all start as female, and that males are 'unclean and unnecessary in the modern world'

That's some twisted logic there. lmao

I told her to get her ovaries out of a twist. That probably didn't help her attitude towards men! :lol:

Probably not. I would have pointed out that women have penis' too and that boys only start out physically LOOKING female. The sperm already has male DNA in it before it gets to the egg.

I hate when people ignore all the facts except the one that supports them.
