So you're blaming... people who were saying "we want to talk about this differently" RATHER than the people at Radio Live who point-blank *refused* to talk about it differently?
That's it. I am apparently through the fucking looking-glass in this thread now.

Rape, like most issues can be a multi-faceted affair.
Oh, DO go on. I'm all ears.

Oh, is THAT what he's trying to do? It's such a weird, ineffective sort of zinger that I couldn't work it out. Still, go on with your bad self, Chuck. Maybe at some point we'll have a moment of clarity where we think "we got TOLD!" when reading your posts. Stranger things have happened.

No, I'm saying that because it's so dated it's fairly difficult for non-native speakers to work out what it means. I'm not really even sure *I* know what it means. It's the kind of word you see in Agatha Christie novels.
I'm not quite sure what your point is either - or if you even have one, beyond being weirdly niggly - but I don't consider trout or cow acceptable descriptions of women in public life.

And further to Simon's point, if you were surprised by the woman-loathing expressed a few pages back: don't be. Those guys are resentfully there on the internet all the time, waiting to pounce on women speaking.

The number of women (and some men) on Twitter saying "that thread. I just can't" or variants thereof is pretty telling. If you don't want voices to be silenced this isn't exactly a perfect way to go about it.

Ohhhhh. He’s an MRA. You don’t usually see them out of their natural habitat.
ETA Although it is... interesting... that he chose this thread to spew into.

Heh. You go Full Asshole pretty quickly, don't you? Where can you even go from there?
