'merciless nuclear attack against USA'

[Amblève. 4,995]

Fair point. You have to realise though, Kerry, that most on this board haven't even shot a gun before so they are just taking the piss and playing tough. But when sit hits the fans they will cry for mommy. What I've noticed that men are becoming more feminine. With the western YOLO SWAG culture distorting the reality for young people who will never grow up. All about parties, seeming cool without thinking of tomorrow.

This is kinda misogynistic. They're not becoming more feminine but more ignorant and stupid by avoiding to use their brain whenever possible.

I'm not hating on women, I just said MEN are becoming more like women aka feminine. Men should be the providers, protectors of the family but nowadays it is very rare to see a fit person, who would be able to protect women and children. Especially true in the academic circle. I mean if a man is same size as a woman, then something is wrong.

Then you have a wrong point of view when it comes to role models. There is no rule or whatsoever that men have to be the "protectors" or providers. Such things are historical terms. Furthermore, it's just the society that has defined the terms "men" and "women" and their connections, they're nothing natural regarding role models like providers etc. Why does a man have to be the head of the family?! Why not a woman?

You'd think we're heading into a future of total equality...

If you recognized yourself and got offended somehow - sorry, but that's my opinion. Who are you to tell me if I am wrong or not in my views? Trying to twist and turn my words around isn't going to get you anywhere. You can go all softy and talk about equality but fact is that some things are better done by men, some by women. Men earn more money just because they are men, it is the salary gap between genders that dictates that. In theory men should be stronger than women and that is what I was trying to point out - men are becoming more girly, vain (those tight jeans that make one impotent, different accessories, cosmetics, lack of readiness to take responsibility). Common logic says that men and women can't be equal in every front. But Amels, you know what? Stick with your theory of 'becoming stupid and ignorant' and lets leave it like that.

Edit: The initial post was meant to BluesChick, who appreciated the comment. So why are you trying to cause havoc by intervening? This is a topic for a possible nuclear attack not a place to spread hippy talk about everyone and everything being equal.

I agree to a certain extent. Lately I've been obsessed with masculinity. I want to be like Ernest Hemmingway and other manly men.

A lot is to do with biology, people forget we are animals too. Don't forget a lot of animals, mammals in particular are patriarchal.

No, I was not offended in the least. There has been a trend in which some young men are becoming more effeminate and becoming more "soft". The "metrosexual" males are an example of this. Personally, I do not find that type of man attractive at all.

I think gender equality must be left as a debate for another time and thread.

I will say that not taking responsibility is more a characteristic of immaturity than either gender.

So back on topic, China has pledged to help resolve the issue with NK. So hopefully this is a positive step. The day we are worried the NK will do something is on the 15th, Kim Jong Un's birthday.

There's nothing masculine about writing novels.

Please don't use that word. It's one of the most unfortunate words in English. It makes me cringe whenever I see or hear the word.

This thread went from nuclear talk, to the most painfully awkward exchange I've ever seen on my 25+ years of reading internet forums(between shon and bushman), to an old guy citing current youth culture as leading to the emasculation of men.

This might literally be the best thread in internet history

You and me both! That is why it is in quotations. There is nothing sexy about a man in skinny jeans (no girl wants it to be that obvious she may possibly out weighs you). Not to mention that he has no muscle or anything else which has had the life squeezed out of it by the skinny jeans!! Plus, guys are meant to have body hair... Waxing should only be used in extreme circumstances by a guy ( like if he has hair on his back or a veritable carpet on his chest! I suppose some women find it sexy, but most do not.)

Yes, it has taken a few twists and turns and it has most definitely been derailed!!

Btw, I don't think UltraShine is as old as you seem to think... If you are referring to me well, then I am neither young nor old and most definitely NOT a guy! LOL

Poor KIM

Dunno if anyone just watched the news with the undercover report (risky job!) from inside North Korea but what a creepy place, obsessed only with war and fighting it seems. Starving their own people etc. No animals in the farms, no patients in hospitals, no goods in shops, no electricity in electrical plants. They are completely cut off from the world, it's a report i'll probably never forget. What a weird place with really weird, soulesss people. They should be blown off the world map, what is the point in the country? Their ppl are treated like dogs, digging for food and washing clothes in icey streams n shit. I actually cannot believe what i just saw.

WOW, WOW, WOW!

I am the disgraceful one???? WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE!!!

You are saying that a country with 24 million people should be blown off the map (because of one totalitarian dictator who does shit). Yet, the first page of the Boston Attack is disgraceful and shameless?

DOUBLE STANDARDS AT ITS FINEST!

[Ollie 4,400]

Their the ones starting this shit. They are obsessed with war, their people are treated like absolute shit. Tell me the point of their country?

What is the point of a country? It is where you were fucking born, it is the place you grow up and the only piece of land you will always feel 100% at home.

I get what you are saying, they have a terrible life style (not life, because that is different). But saying it should be blown out of the map because you disagree with it is ridiculously souless. They are people too you know? Above all, they have no blame because of where they were born.

This is one of the worst posts I have ever read. We should be trying to find a peaceful solutuion and not asking for a country to get blown up!

[Ollie 4,400]

I don't care anymore what ppl think of my posts because what i'm seeing is a fucked up place and i don't think i've ever known a more fucked up place in my life. Ok maybe saying they should get blown off the map is harsh to their actual normal people because it's not their fault but their dictator leader and their fucked up army and all the people doing what they're doing to that country are psychotic and i feel so sorry for anyone who lives there. Ok i'll take back the part saying their country should get blown up but that's only because not all of their people deserve to die so i apologise for that but if anyone has seen what i saw on the news (our news) you would understand my anger right now. I cannot believe what their people are doing to their citizens and their country.

They should be rescued rather than fucking blown off. Where's the fucking United Nations now? Where's the so called Human Right Organizations? If the Report you've watched is even a little bit correct, then these so called organizations should fucking die with shame.
