Quote (The whole truth @ June 03 2012,05:33)
So, a woman ALLEGES that a guy in an elevator asked her if she'd like to come to his room for coffee. PZ Meyers and a lot of other people made a GIGANTIC stink about it, and are still making a stink, for how long now??

I don't think that what I said is an exaggeration, a distortion, or dishonest at all. If anything it's an understatement of the way that many people think and have acted (and are still acting).

Maybe what amazes me the most is that you and some other women don't understand how making such a GIGANTIC stink (or any stink at all, and especially very publicly on the internet) about a NON-incident (in every sense of the word) reinforces the perception that women are helpless, fragile, inferior weaklings who are unable to take care of themselves and need to be protected from men even talking to them.

Yeah, you've come a long way baby. Not.

I'd just like to say a couple of words on this subject on behalf of all the lurkers and quasi-lurkers here.

Grow up.
