I was a whole lot more interested in seeing you actually defend your points than being any kind of "troll", but I guess you're far better at being hysterical instead.

Hysterical? Oh yeah, you're not trolling, that's not a typically gendered accusation.

Oh, the male tears


Sounds like the female was actually the one in tears after seeing the mortal-threat of several texts asking for a simple explanation. :roll:


Here's a lesson in basic etiquette.

If someone has changed their mind about meeting you, and you wish for an explanation:

Step 1. Send text asking what happened.
Step 2. Wait for a reply while not sending any more texts.
Step 3. If a reply is not forthcoming, move the f**k on.


I know that. I was just pointing out that the chick was the one supposedly crying for the police to save her over a few non-threatening texts, not the OP.

If you can offer a better alternative, be my guest. Otherwise, keep on being full of s**t.

Shau, you're one of the first misogynists I ever engaged in conversation with on this forum and it went no where because you see it as a competition for you to prove some point about men or women and it's just pointless and I honestly don't see why I need to defend my point that harassment is not a means of teaching women a lesson.

Like any decent human being is going to agree that harassment isn't something people are meant to learn a lesson from. Like, don't you dare cancel a date or ignore a man, or he'll harass you, lesson learned. That's misogyny, and the fact that you can't tell it from anything else tells ME that there is NO POINT in engaging in conversation with you.

So drop it, and drop all references to any part of my body, ever.

And how do you know she didn't feel threatened by the texts/that they were "non-threatening" ?

Edit: Adding to your questions, not questioning you

The OP claimed what he wrote wasn't an implied "threat" of any kind unless he was lying. But, I suppose he could've sent her his avatar photo with that creepy looking smile in it beforehand. lol

The "cry misogyny" card doesn't work on anyone with half a brain. You got nothing, and you're not doing women any favors here. There has certainly been abundant amounts of misogyny on this forum before, and being a bit twitchy about it is understandable, but the "omg he criticized a woman, he must be a misogynist!" attitude from so many women is not doing a damn thing to make the situation any better. You're contributing to the problem.

Who the hell even said that? Certainly not me. My point was that comment came out of nowhere.

If you have no intention of actually going on a date/meetup/whatever with a guy, then say no. It's not complicated. If you change your mind, say so and move on.

Ask once, and if she doesn't answer? Drop her like it's hot. Ask again and you're being just a big a dick as the chick that flakes on you.


~sigh~ This is why humanity pisses me off. This is my take on what happened:

*Shau criticizes women that flake on guys.*

*Meems gets pisssed and calls Shau a misogynist.*

*Shau calls Meems on her BS.*

*Meems freaks out and yells about more misogyny.*

Real warriors get their powers from drinking whoop arse in a can, which is also made from tears plus a little black widow venom and the blossoms of the lotus plant.

I really don't think it's OK to mock his picture, regardless of his actions. That's cruel and unnecessary. :(

When I state "Drop her immediately unless she had a good reason to flake...which isn't actually flaking at all..." and then I'm suddenly accused of encouraging people to harass women for cancelling a date...I'm pretty sure I ought to eject too. It was entertaining at first, now I'm just bored and irritated.

The OP may not have felt like he was threatening or harassing her. But if she feels like she is being threatened or harassed, then under most laws that's reasonable for police.
