Re: Fourteen Percent of Men Wear Nail Polish?

For the most part, I'll wear rather subtle shades like robin's-egg blue or a lilac colour. Occasionally I'll do my right middle finger in brilliant green and the left one in bright red (starboard and port), which has resulted in some interesting conversations indeed as folks learn something they did...

Re: Skirt Wearing by Women Increasing?

So a question comes to mind. If over the course of that century a few men were experimenting with MIS, at what point would a substantial number of women consider a romantic relationship with such men? Some time around 3165. In other words, we're not going to see it, nor will our great-grandchildren...

Re: men in skirts t shirt idea

This is important in keeping are mental health. Even if are slogan T-shirts doesn't persuade others to join MIS, it helps in keeping are own peace of mind and that is crucial. The best way to do that isn't with slogans plastered on a t-shirt or a sticker, but simply standing up, raising high the mi...

Re: men in skirts t shirt idea

I see Brad's activism as important (not sure who Chip is) - and I think social media is where the war must be fought. I'm simply saying that a lone t-shirt with a quirky message might be nice individually - I don't see it having broad social impact. Bluntly, aside from cesspits like Farcebook and T...

Re: men in skirts t shirt idea

You can't control how other people perceive you anyway. It doesn't matter. Precisely. However, some of us dwell in 3rd World holes where just looking different can potentially get you disappeared to some worse 3rd World hole -- thus some of us have just reverted to "protective colouration"...

Re: Sizing

This is a common gripe amongst women as well. As my late ex- put it, "It's down to trial by fitting room."

By the time one gets done with "vanity sizing" and the entirely uncontrolled Asian "sizing" one never knows what one will get.

Re: I don't want to be labeled

Apologies Carl, I did not mean to imply you did, I was( possibly being a hypocrite, sorry BM) refering to men as a section of society, past and present. No offence taken -- and certainly none offered. The main point is that as we tend to look askance at the seedier end of civilisation we wind up ov...

Re: I don't want to be labeled

We have had a recent case where a male, convicted of sexual offences against cis women, turned round and claimed to be a trans woman which is why he was in 'female spaces' and that he should go to a female prison. The answer here is, "No. What we have is a predator that needs to be confined an...

Re: I don't want to be labeled

My thoughts exactly Carl. Trouble is people actually fall for it. That's why it's such a useful tool -- and precisely why it's deployed -- It works ! And its usage is almost universal which is why critical thinkers need to be carefully aware of when they're being manipulated. Here's a good example:...

Re: I don't want to be labeled

Why anyone would undergo transition only to attack women in changing rooms is beyond belief. The quick answer is that nobody actually does this. This is a good example of what's called a canard in rhetoric; it's used as a distractor -- a red herring -- to get the audience to stop thinking about the...

Re: Dressed for Music

I agree that the image is a nice fantasy, but that's one of the problems that "A.I." has -- it's not grounded in things like anatomy and physics, I am more that a bit worried that we're getting to a point where our "suspension of disbelief" is reaching a point where it's no longe...

Re: Dressed for Music

Legless. The image is A.I. generated.

I don't think the white keys are "broken" but rather tucked into the folds. They're also on the inside of the dress, leaving the astute wondering "Where are her legs?"

Re: Did we get hacked?

Well, I've got some analysis done and have changed the maximum session-length from a day to three hours. I also note a vast number of sessions from "wowrack.com" and from "Alibaba Cloud" -- which tends to be in agreement with my initial (and possibly hasty) judgment. I seem to re...

Re: Did we get hacked?

800 users online at once is unimaginable for me, so it's likely down to a DDOS of some sort. So, that's a simple load problem. I'm not sure how we can defend against it, either. I need to give this some thought -- which is difficult now because of the pain I'm in.
