  • Yes, you’re right. I am a woman, and I own that fact very well. It would seem both of us let emotions take its course. Such is the trait of a man to look that over 😉

    No. I didn't get emotional one bit, except to find the responses from most of the women, and some of the guys who eat too much soy, to be humorous. I, also, enjoyed calling out your fallacies. It's half-way decent brain exercise.

    Shed yourself of that feminist mindset that there is equality in faults (and abilities) of woman and man in every act.

    Listen, Man, I don’t want to argue anymore. I was making a joke. I can’t say that everything you say is wrong, but I do strongly disagree with your view on corporal punishments/wives. I think men, and women are equal in abilities. We all have faults though, and you can’t get around that.

    Also, I am sorry for comparing you to an abuser. I don’t know you in real life, and I’m sure you would agree that violent attacks on women are disgusting.

    If you spent as much time to attending to your homemaker duties, rather than monitoring this thread and commenting with your illogical, emotionally-driven conjectures, maybe you'd have a little more contentment and, perhaps, some bliss in your life.

    Well as it happens my husband, and kids are sick this week. So since they are all sleeping I get to enjoy some time in between checking on them. Today my two toddlers slept on me while we sat on the sofa because all they wanted was cuddles. So thanks I’m doing just fine ;)

    I just caught this now, but I mean UNEQUAL. *UNEQUAL*. I don’t want any more confusion 😃

    The "believewomen" slogan promotes the absurd idea that one ought to accept any accusation of assault that a woman makes against a man because women would not lie about that.  Therefore things like due process and evidence are unnecessary.  This is clearly wrong and foolish.

    Posting this as a response to VW3 implies that you think there is no reason to believe her claims.  Obviously, we would not automatically assume she is truthful merely because she is a woman.  However, my personally policy is to start from the assumption that my fellow posters on this forum are telling the truth until I have reason to believe otherwise.  I have never seen anything posted by her that rang false or led me to doubt her honesty.  Also, her story about having more time than usual to post today matches her posting history.

    She tried to make peace and apologized.  It is unfortunate that you were not more gracious in your response.  Your basically correct position would be more effective if you attended to such matters.

  • Quid:

    I have five children, homeschooled. My wife runs the house, manages the finances, cares for the children and runs a business from home. Kids age from nearly two years old to nearly twelve years old. 
    Despite all this she still has plenty of time to post here, frequently, and well. As can be seen from her posts here, despite all of the other things going on, she is quite attentive to her spiritual well being also, as well as that of myself and our children. 

    That post about being more attentive to homemaking is making assumptions and is degrading and belittling. It is that kind of thing that I have asked for the cessation of.

    I am wondering what this means or rather the origins of it. Can you explain please, Quid.

    I posted this question before I saw Jane's comment. But I still would like your answer, please, Quid.

  • Nadir, I believe this hashtag started with the confirmation hearings for Brett Kavanaugh for the US Supreme Court, with Ms. Ford bringing her accusations public.

    Wrong context and therefore offensive. You should be banned for bringing nothing but sour grapes to the table. 
    Don’t you have anything better to do than troll Catholic forums?

    There is a short Wikipedia article on the expression: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Believe_women
    It says that the slogan existed before the Kavanaugh incident but became more widespread at that time.

    It’s an unfair situation, but without doubt to many men would be wrongly convicted.
