I think you're right about everything you said, but you have to admit, literally every thread she gets involved in turns into something like this. I've also noticed a change in her tone over the past month or so. A lot more personal attacks, a lot of inappropriate stuff said to STR8UP
No, Mike, not literally every thread I contribute to turns into this. The more controversial threads that I contribute to that DO turn into this, do so because I am the target. The female. SO even when other GUYS are saying the same thing I am saying, all the focus is on ME.
As far as STR8UP goes, I think I will indeed ignore him for awhile, since he seems like a lost cause. And it is too easy... But I actually HOPE for the best for him. Until then I will let Latinoman reality check him. Now you can call HIM out! But you won't.

She called jophil a bitter old man on a different thread on here earlier tonight. What the hell has that guy ever done or said to her?
I was joking. Hence the wink. See,
. That means playful banter. Even though he is a bitter old man.
See! There, I winked again. I am "innocently flirting".

I know I'm one of the posters she likes (or I've gotten that impression), and I usually tend to be on her side with stuff like this, but she is even kind of starting to wear on me. Usually from the first post she makes on a thread, I can predict where it's going to go. She'll prod ketostix or STR8UP (depending on which has posted), but she'll do so in a thinly-veiled and suggestive manner.
They almost always reply to one of MY posts with some off the wall comment. And then yes, I may actually respond back! And I might even be rude back. Shocker there! To sit here and say I start all that says a lot, namely that you aren't paying attention.

One of them will respond and tell her she's generalizing or being overly protective of women, then she'll respond and bring up something one of them has said in a past thread.
I am and always have been for NOT generalizing. My MAIN point is almost always that you CANNOT generalize so widely, and so negatively. Well you can... but like I just said it leads to ignorance and contempt. A generalization sounds something like this: "ALL women" or "MOST women", and most of my statements are in contradiction to that kind of viewpoint.
I don't often bring up what someone said in a past thread, but why the hell wouldn't I, if it illustrated my point exactly? And I know I am not the only one who does that.

I also kind of wonder what kind of a life you're living outside of SoSuave if you're letting things get to you to the point that you're searching through another poster's post history to quote past posts, only to prove some ridiculous point that likely has no relevance to what is actually being discussed.
I didn't have to go far, it illustrated my point exactly, and it had
everything to do with the discussion at hand. It was a direct response to the post I quoted!
Your cool, mike, but don't take it as an iqqi likes you and iqqi hates most others. I just don't disagree with a lot that you say, and I don't see you making too many negative generalizations about women.
My argument is always against misogynist, untrue generalizations. And if ppl want to jump in and start getting personal with me as a reaction, well I tend to divert most of those comments anyways.
Every once in awhile I will defend myself. Like here and now.
The real problem isn't that iqqi has an opinion or that iqqi responds to flames, it is that some men on this forum can NOT take a differing viewpoint or counter argument from a woman.
I will probably get "attacked" for the last statement. But I am not the only one saying that either.
Anyone else? This thread was retarded to start with and a repeated @ss theme lately, so I don't feel to bad if THIS is the thread where I don't let slide every personal comment against me.
