I'm still waiting for some of these to come from the women. (Granted, I don't know who is who, I have a couple of guesses whose female, but thats about it.)
Come on, I know there are some that make men look bad. We fart in public for one thing. Women, well according to them they don't fart, but they are atleast more polite about it.
Yes fine, Hermy, all women are out to get all you big strapping men. We despise you all and plan to rule the world soon. Shesh

I don't see the point in trying to make men "look bad". Despite intentions, I think these sorts of threads often fall very short of either humor or insight, and just create more misunderstandings.
Yep, that's why I haven't offered any suggestions.
Yeah, but it seems like you only originally posted when you saw something that might be construed as a negative generality about men. I know later you made that comment about not all women loving shoes, but that wasn't evident in your first post at all.
Sorry if I'm not making much sense, but it seems like that sort of behavior is just as divisive.
Every day I wake up thinking it's the 21st Century, and every day I come to TrekBBS and am reminded that it's still the 1950s.

I'm continually baffled by this aspect of this board. Why is it so prevalent here??![]()

Because half the guys here don't know any girls in real life and are just basing it on what they see on TV.
Thank you. That's the answer I was going for.![]()

Of course it was. You and JW are making a generalisation in an attempt to criticise people who make generalisations. Why do either of you post here if you have such a low opinion of other posters ?
Entertainment.

There's a word for that. Begins with a 't' and ends with "rolling".
Generalising about a bunch of people who's attitudes you have spent quite a long time observing is not the same as generalising about entire genders.
Posting here for entertainment is trolling?
What, am I supposed to be posting here for work?

Not to defend some of the ideas in this thread, but who says they haven't been observing the opposite sex ?
What the whole of it?
Everybody is different, I know countless people that entirely buck the stereotypes that are being attributed to them en masse here which leads me to agree that those who think these stereotypes really do apply are simply lacking in experience. That's a logical conclusion.
Stereotyping 51% of the worlds population is quite different to observing a small group of people who reveal FAR too much personal info here and then commenting on what you see limited to that small group of people. Not even comparable.
I'm bewildered at the battle-of-the-sexes turn this forum has suddenly taken too.*Bangs head on desk*
What the hell, is this stereotype day on the BBS?
