(57,751 posts)and the post was hidden. You didn't explain it as anything other than what it was, and given your affection for guns, why do you think anyone should take it as anything other than on face value? You might have described it, but you chose to post it. That kind of thing leaves an impression.
Apparently you think posting articles is a great contribution to the cause of equal rights. If everything you post is a reflection of your inner values, why doesn't that apply to the anti-abortion, pro-gun propaganda?
I responded to the rest of your points in your locked GD thread. Apparently all you care about is people responding to your OPs. There are several threads at the moment that are about rape and domestic violence, and you haven't shown the slightest interest in them.
How wonderful you support women's rights in far off lands. When I see you do so in the US where they actually has some impact or your life and where you can actually affect change, I'll be more impressed. Quitting misrepresenting the doors bullshit would be a small thing you could do, but you're too heavily invested in a fiction you and others have created. When you invent stories to try to trivialize women's issues, how can I possibly see you as an ally?
The dongles issue is about EEOC law and threats of death and rape against a woman, which you show how little you care about by trivializing. If only Adria Richards had bared her breasts rather than Tweeting, she might be worthy of continuing to live on this planet. The right to be safe from violence and work in a non-discriminatory atmosphere is really basic. No one who can't support that is any ally of mine, particularly when he spends much of his time arguing for gun proliferation.
