It is true that in some instances, men do abuse women and children. But this is the exception, not the rule. I oppose abuse generally and support laws against abuse. But I certainly do not want to give women the power to abuse men by giving them the vote because women have no instinct to restrain their abuse of men.

"women have no instinct to restrain their abuse of men"
If you could live as a woman for about, oh, forty years, you'd understand exactly why that is.
This isn't the first time this weirdo has come out with this crap so I'm starting to think it must be a Poe, of sorts...
If he is, he's very good at it.
From the same post:
Replying to: "Both men and women are capable of empathy."
fschmidt: "We disagree."
This is all I need to know about the guy. He simply doesn't see women as human beings worthy of basic human rights. There's a psychological diagnosis for that.
I dunno...I've been able to restrain myself from verbally or physically attacking men who decide to be idiots or sexist in public.
If you hate women so much, why not just try homosexuality? You seem to like men a lot better, anyway.
Can we give love-shy a rest? Yes, you could call any unusual political opinion with which you disagree "fundie" if you wanted to, but then you could extend it to anything, the term will be meaningless and FSTDT won't be a funny place to laugh at godly idiots anymore.
"Officer, help! My girlfriend is abusing me!"
"What seems to be the problem?"
"It was horrible...she...she told me what to do! And she even shared her opinions on the state of affairs in the world! What do I do?"
"... ...Grow a pair."
Of course, that's assuming this dude could even get a girlfriend. >>;
Oh God, not another...
So what, we're abusing you because we don't support rape? If you descend into madness and read some of his posts, you see he has "a Mexican wife" and is all proud. I kind of get the feeling he's being used for a green card.
Get fucked fshmidt. By a pineapple.
Seems that thread begins with their discussion of our discussion of their- eer- psychotic posts. It's mildly amusing to read their smug belief that they are somehow the wronged party.
Seems these love shy people either have a form of social anxiety (regrettable), or a world view that makes them incompatible with the opposite gender. In both cases, I would recommend professional help. Staying in a forum where each member reinforces the others is counterproductive. Much like the "pro-anna" websites...
Apparently you haven't noticed that in addition to the fact that women already have the right to vote, the Speaker of the House, the Secretary of State, and numerous other public officials are women.

This site has been geared toward all fundies since it was created. Read the FAQ. We don't just do religious fundies. It isn't just about the godly. Furthermore, the definition of fundamentalist is as follows:
1. (sometimes initial capital letter ) a movement in American Protestantism that arose in the early part of the 20th century in reaction to modernism and that stresses the infallibility of the Bible not only in matters of faith and morals but also as a literal historical record, holding as essential to Christian faith belief in such doctrines as the creation of the world, the virgin birth, physical resurrection, atonement by the sacrificial death of Christ, and the Second Coming. 2. the beliefs held by those in this movement. 3. strict adherence to any set of basic ideas or principles: the fundamentalism of the extreme conservatives.
Pay particular attention to part III of the definition. The love-shy idiots believe in a misogynistic fanaticism based on stereotyping and rigid gender roles. If that's not fundie I don't know what is.
because idiotic close minded misognyist men like you OBLITERATE my instinct to restrain myself from giving you an eye opening slap to the back of your head in hopes of knocking some sense into your small slow developed brains*
*women mature faster than men. its been scientifically proven that 20 years old is the new 40 for women whereas men in their 20's are still akin to teenage boys. In SOME cases, to quote YOU, this is the exception... not the rule. But in your case.. its not. :D
Pookie, I'm not sure you can handle this, so I'll try to break it to you gently, WOMEN CAN VOTE! You try to take my RIGHT to vote away and I just may have to fill your balls with quail shot. I couldn't even read all of this micro-dicked misogynist's post let alone the rest of the thread. He flat out says rape should only be illegal if it is "unprovoked."
Wow, this dude can spout misogynist bile whilst turning economic woes into a consequence of women's sexual liberation. All the world's ills would be solved if every woman picked a man and submitted to him, because then men will be too happy to fuck with the economy or have wars. Wouldn't that be nice?
He's either a Poe or a latent rapist. What a spectrum.
Ah, and from the misandrists to the misogynists in a single swoop. Sexists make me sick.
Guess what, kiddo? We HAVE the vote. We've had it for a long time. And in case you missed it, we're perfectly capable of making intelligent, informed decisions about politics. True, there are some women who vote like morons, but there are just as many men who do the same thing. Hate to burst your bubble, but men and women are not as different as you seem to think.
I thought we already HAD the vote? We've had it since the 1920's. Still, more men are charged with abuse of women and children, than women with abuse of men and children. In Sweden it's something like 100 men for each woman.
"Has no instinct to restraint their abuse of men"? Huh? Women have, on average, a very strong instinct to not abuse men, as men are mostly both larger and stronger than women.
I won't make any "sammiches" for you, bitch. I make sandwiches for my husband, because he does other things for me. We help and support each other. What you give is what you get. As he sounds pleasantly surprised and grateful each and every time I bring him a sandwich, I keep on doing it. You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.
A tip: if you shy away from love, you also shy away from sex. Most people want to combine those two.
"But I certainly do not want to give women the power to abuse men by giving them the vote"
They already do. For decades. So tough titty, fshit.
And frankly, women need some sort of say, to rein in the excesses of certain men in politics. Basically 'You fuck up, we'll ensure you don't have a job in a few years' time'.
I'm a man, and the likes of you are an insult to our gender, fshit.
This internet tough dude can say and spout all the nonsense he wants about how it's all the women's fault that he's not getting laid.
But, in the end, he's not getting laid. He doesn't like the fact that he's not getting laid, so he invents these reasons on why he's not getting laid. Instead of trying to figure out a root problem, or even just give some empathy, he just makes it worse. He wants the love and respect of a woman- just not a woman that believes that she is human.
And, after reading through that thread, I'm wondering where their stats on "growing number of love-shy men" are coming from. I'm on a college campus. I'm a college woman. Most men I know are in some kind of good, happy, stable relationship. I really don't see this growing number of single men. (And let me make this clear, I hang out with the gamers and future scientists of tomorrow)
With few exceptions, namely EmptyInside and Joshua (though there are other moderate posters), love-shy is a circle jerk for vilifying women. Why? Because they have personal issues, but just because they're personal issues doesn't mean women aren't to blame!
I'm slightly disappointed that I haven't gotten a mention in their thread. It would have emphasised the Observer-related lulz a whole bunch.
Anyway, I'm getting de-sensitised to this stuff now. It's the "WTF and move on" situation.
I know fschmidt, how dare we get all uppity in our thinking that we should and can vote on things by our own thinking without your input and consent? It is soooo abusive that we vote and men can't tell us how to vote. The travesty of it all!
*Smacks fschmidt upside the head*
Welcome to the 21st century you jacka**hole. Oh, and seriously, if you didn't think so sexist and treated us like fully functioning and intelligent human beings, you would be suprised on how many women would actually like you.
@Zits
Nice one. Which reminds me:

Early last year I was at Heathrow Airport to see off a friend flying to Japan. Whilst I was there, I saw some of the British Transport Police on duty. All BTP officers at the UK's airports are armed, post-9/11 & 7/7; a couple of years ago their H&K MP5s were upgraded to more powerful semiauto rifles. Seeing a female officer wielding a Steyr AUG (as well as a Glock 17) made me happy from the waist downwards (& other open spaces; and in that order! X3 ). Ye gods, but she was H.O.T.!
Ironically enough, this quote is right below one from a feminist stating she doesn't care about little boys getting "sexually stimulated" by women, since it's not supported by "dominant power structure" and thus not rape.
Coincidence or a sign from higher powers? YOU decide!
"I oppose abuse generally"
Only "generally"? *slowly backs away*
I don't get this "love-shy" thing. I have a "metric fuckton of social awkwardness" too, but I don't go around saying, "MEN SUCK! LET'S RAPE THEM! LET'S DO HORRIBLE THINGS TO THEM! THEY DESERVE IT BECAUSE THEY DON'T LOVE ME!!" It's when I read stuff like this that I realize that I'm not nearly as fucked-up as I think.
You are a massive twat. No wonder you can't get laid. No sane woman would touch you with a 39 1/2 foot pole, and most of the insane ones wouldn't either.
Mind I can't get laid either but that's because I'm painfully shy.
@ #1130463 and Elia: while the idea of a cage match between these two nutjobs sounds funny, there is a very real risk of it degenerating into rage-sex as each one tries to rape the other, and I dare not even try to imagine what manner of unholy abomination such a coupling would spawn...
"It is true that in some instances, men do abuse women and children. But this is the exception, not the rule. I oppose abuse generally and support laws against abuse."
Could it be...someone on Love-shy just said something sane?
"But I certainly do not want to give women the power to abuse men by giving them the vote because women have no instinct to restrain their abuse of men."
...Wait, no, scratch that. You're a fundie loon like all the rest.
I really had my hopes up for this one, too.
P.S. Where does he live that women can't vote?
What the heck? Oh, "love-shy", never mind...
We've had the vote for almost a century, stupid! If women abuse men and children, they get prosecuted, just as if men abuse women and children.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
