Concerning the treatment of female NSers

You fall into the other category... there are "most people" and a "select group of people"... of the two, you belong in a "select group of people"... primarily because we will rage montana soon

alright your guna have to show your tits or gtfo

last few DAYS? woah woah woah.

everything that should be said here is written in the quoted post.

Unfortunately, I don't think this will change much with most NSers. Most of us are still bigheaded, immature, thoughtless kids. That's just how kids are. If we see others posting about women and how they should show tits, then the impressionable NSers will jump on the bandwagon and follow suit. It sucks, but it's the internet.

It's also the fact that:
a)Blue names are rare compared to blue names on this site. If NS had a more active following of pink names then we wouldn't be so reactive.
b) Women's skiing is not up to the level of men's yet. It's ridiculously worse, there's no question about it. I mean, isn't the fact that most decent guys can thrown down harder than the female pros?

Seriously, until the women up their game they won't be respected.

you missed the like, FIVE tattoo threads didnt you?

rly?

i think you meant pink names are rare compared to blue names.

whoops haha

that, plus the CONSTANT "tits" and "kitchen" shit is what Rowen is talking about.  the girl that had the Tattoo thread started like 4 other threads bitching about guys saying her tattoo was fucking stupid (which, it was) and then some of the more, how do you say, cavalier members of the site just ripped her to pieces.

Don't flatter yourself. The only reason you "think" you're singled out is because girls have this incredible ability to make anything and everything, about them. So what if you're called dumb. Get over it. Everyone has been. Don't automatically assume just because you're a girl that guys are targeting you FOR THAT REASON. I would say the person who said it, probably thinks you are actually dumb. If a girl called me dumb I wouldn't take it with any more weight than if a guy did. I would take it based on what I think of that person. And right now, by bitching about your "hardships", I couldn't care less what you think.

If you didn't want the added attention of a pink name you could easily have changed the color. But we all know a girl like you who complains how hard it is to be a woman and still expects all men to bow down to her. There is such a huge double standard it's ridiculous. They want to be treated equally but then go and pull the sexist card. Fucking make up your mind already. Do you want us to treat you like everyone else or not? It's that simple.

Life isn't fair. Get over it. If you can, you'll be a stronger person. What's the alternative? Bitch and moan about it until no one will listen to you? Take things in stride and grow the fuck up.

I'm a girl i just find it all funny. I mean when i'm in the kitchen i make damn good food all you boys are just sad you can't eat it.

here is a good analogy...how often are the phrases "that's so gay" and "wow, what a faggot" used?

i don't see arabian bitching and complaining...i think he handles situations just fine and a lot of the girls in here should grow up if they take this shit personally and to the heart.

What would ns do without you..

i can haz food?

the problem with bitches is that they don't know a compliment when they hear one, in fact they somehow find ways of turning a compliment into sexual harassment. like, a guy says you're hot, no that's not harassment, that's a dude being nice. sexual harassment would be a dude saying you're so ugly he can't believe anybody would fuck you. that's fucking rare. when a chick compliments me, I don't give her the finger and call it sexual harassment. that's just plain rude, and it labels me as a whiny bitch.
you want me to not call you a bitch? don't act like one. trust me, i'm a minority and i've had worse words thrown at me than "nice ass" or "great rack." there are girls who have friends and they call each other sluts like it's a joke, but then some guy comes along and tells them they are lookin good and all of a sudden this guy is a fuckin pig and all he wants is to get into her pants.

this thread has gone on long enough, and when a girl says guys have no idea what it's like to be honked at or whistled at, you can bet most guys don't because women are too busy pointing out every flaw in a dude, waiting for that guy they saw in their Disney movie to walk through the door and take them off to fairy-tale land for a nice cup of tea and a romp in the grass.
as if there weren't enough examples of women calling guys pigs in this thread already to tell us that it goes both fuckin ways so they can shut the fuck up and suck it up the same way we do. you think i look at some woman calling the majority of my gender a bunch of bunch of pigs and take it as a compliment? i don't. fuck you. and i can make a better sandwich than your whiny ass ever could. you suck. my sister thinks you suck too, she's a tomboy, and when a guy compliments her, she takes it as a fucking compliment, and when a guy disses her, she either beats him up or threatens me to do it for her, because she's a girl and she knows she can't take every dude, because she's not some sexist bitch who thinks that she is just as capable of everything as a man. she's capable of a hell of a lot of things, but she can't beat up a lot of guys so she doesn't act like it. i would kickshit any bitch who deserved it, if not for the fact that a guy shitkicking a woman who deserves it equals jail time, even though when a woman shitkicks a guy who deserves it she deserves some sort of fucking award. fuck your sexism, what's sexist is that we let bitches get away with things we would never let some guy get away with. be grateful that your stupid fucking feminist movement went on long enough to allow you to get away with so much bullshit, and shut the fuck up.

thank you to every woman who has ever shitkicked, or got a friend to shitkick a man who deserved it. thank you to every woman who has ever shitkicked a woman who deserved it. thank you to every woman that has stuck up for herself when she needed to. thank you to every woman who embraces her talents regardless of whether they are performed in the kitchen or elsewhere. thank you to every woman that has been complimented on her looks and taken it as a compliment. you're the women that rock.
to the women that haven't done the above, fuck you, you promote sexism and then you bitch about it, you are cancer, i hope you die.

thats cause arabian is the SHIT!

but i do recall a time when some asschump started ripping on him, he just took it, realized how ignorant the douche was, and let it go, didnt complain, all the time this kid was whipping out every gay joke he could come up with, arabian was the bigger man, pun not intended

I'm wondering if that 4.20 tat girl complained to a mod, because normally, mods don't give a shit, they have more important things to worry about, like the political threads and pretty much everything else that occurs in their normal lives outside of NS. This is a website, not life. suck it up because people aren't going to do this in real time.

do you make wicked awesome cookies?  cause i havent had a cookie in a long ass time.

i have a simple way to resolve this issue, no pink names. done. no more bullshit.

She didnt complain, I was getting sick of the endless and insulting tattoo threads and having to delete shit.

There are some of us who are clearly girls without the pink.

Also, this is fucking ridiculous. 5 pages of this bullshit?

YOU MADE THE DECISION TO BE ON THIS WEBSITE! YOU CAN MAKE THE DECISION TO LEAVE!

And what's wrong with that?
Life is about having some fun. If you're politically incorrect once on the internet, thats not such a big deal. If you think that you are mature, loosen up and try not to be.

I switched from pink to blue a few years ago. It got rid of a lot of unwanted attention and dumb comments.

A skier is a skier. In my mind good for a girl doesn't cut it.

I'm the only female on my construction site with 80-100 men. If you hold your ground, and don't give them a reason to be sexist they wont be. I only had one comment in the last 3 months "So sweety, whats for lunch?" I put him in his place in front of all his coworkers, no more issues.

Command respect and you shall get it, nobody wants to hear excuses. If you keep trying new tricks, and fall on occasion it shows you're trying to learn, if that doesn't get respect from your peers something is wrong.

There is no reason why women shouldn't be almost on level with men, this is a GRAVITY sport. Look at the gap between female divers, gymnasts and skaters. Men are throwing quads, women triples. Its relatively close. Skiing should be the same, and there ARE chicks throwing down, lots of unknowns.

As for big mountain, anyone ever see Rachel Burks ski? She's easily on par with a lot of big name pro men. Its a matter of sacking up and trying new things, you will fail, you will fall, it will hurt. Pick yourself up and try it again.

On another note, this site does have a large mid-teen user base. Who actually had their head on right from 12-16 anyways? Take these comments with a grain of salt and try to realize the source its coming from.

/end thread.

Both sides have made their point. Form your own opinions from it but I don't think there is anything else that can be said without sounding like a whiny bitch.

wonderful

You can't form a fucking sentence. A newb chooses to be new when they join the site. Circumstances of birth are things such as race, age, sex, maybe physical/mental handicaps or conditions. Making fun of someone for that is generally considered cruel since the object of the joke, hateful comment or whatever had no say in that characteristic about themself. Nobody chose to be born with a vagina. People like you elected by your own volition to make an incoherent comment on this site.

not highly doubtful, it is so.

When you say stupid shit, constantly I might add, that usually has some negative repercussions on how others view you. I'm not discrediting that there are some dumbshit adolescent boys in here, but regardless if chick or not, you go out of your way to say shit. Deal with the flak if others find it stupid.

K rob, you hit it on the nail. At least in this current mood of mine you sure as hell did.

is saying get back in the workshop and build me a table too far?

Rowen, 100% agree with you. Personally i think NS doesn't ban people easily enough. If someone's being immature and inappropriate NS is a better place without them. As far as I'm concerned the less immature 15 year olds on here the better.

Its about riding a fine line between leaving too many members offended and banning too much of your double pits to chesty commerical audience.

so you're basically saying delete NSG as a whole?

well i havent been banned yet

Are you people fuckin serious?

for as long as I can remember, at least half this site has been nothing but a bunch of 15 year olds calling each other fags, with not so much as a comment on the inappropriate nature of such comments.

But after "the last few days" of sexist comments your going to start banning people?

But who gives a shit about gay people anyway?

As far as sexism goes, when they start competing in ANYTHING PHYSICAL at the same level, then I might consider it crude to assume a girl cant ski just because shes a girl.  This doesn't necessarily justify sexist comments, but a certain degree of contempt for a group of less-able athletes who demand to be treated equal to those more-able, is not entirely out of line.

Its either chivalry or equality,  you don't get both.  So either step up your life-game, or don't be surprised when someone treats you like a homemaker.

i agree and disagree with that comment soo much...

See this is how I see it, but then you have other mods shall not be named who don't think anyone should be permanently banned under any circumstances, so we have to sort of meet somewhere in the middle. Thankfully, the Doug has decreed that bannings shall be meted out for sexism, racism, homophobia and anything of the sort, so those people, at least, are going to end up posting somewhere else.

Rowen, I'm really happy for you, and Imma let you finish, BUT TONYAA HAD ONE OF THE BEST THREADS OF ALL TIME!!

You are the shit.
Thank you for taking all the ideas swirling around in my head that I couldn't really put into words and making them an incredibly good post.  Why won't your karma go above 10?

TLDR
INTERNET ARE SEWIOUS.
SEWIOUS PEOPLE TALK ABOUT SEWIOUS STUFF IN SEWIOUS THWEAD.

They may not be so overt, but  youre going to find much bigger assholes in real life. Think about the internet goons as practice for dealing with the dickholes who actually affect your lives...~

No more sammich jokes stowe. and no more harrassing the young wimminz of this site. What a week for NS.

More importantly - where the fuck have you been?
