Now we have entered the realm of nit-picking. I'm all done here.

At the risk of the further derailment of the thread, you can think the way you do, and I will think the way I do. And I will continue to think that you have been brainwashed by radical feminist agendas that are bent on making men complete and utter quaking pansies, to be direct.


Those words, I do not think they mean what you think they mean.

Both Marxism and socialism relate to economics and class, not gender, so I fail to see how they're at all related to what I've been saying in this topic. Frankly, it looks like, at this point, you were just stringing together random words that you see as insults.


I know of what I posted, and I know what I said has truth. Your so-called "enlightened" view has its very roots in radical feminism, whose own U.S. roots are from leftist and socialist student groups/movements from the 1960s. As ideologies Marxism and radical feminism have generally opposed one another. BUT, much like the Marxist struggle between classes, radical feminism describes a long struggle between "women" and "men". Futhermore, radical feminism has had a close, although sometimes hostile, relationship with Marxism since its origins. Both Marxists and radical feminists seek a total and radical change in social relations and consider themselves to be on the political left.

What you've been "educated" with is a de-classification and breaking down of the genders so that we no longer are certain as to what is 'male' and what is 'female', thereby not only weaking one's own confidence in one's gender and sexual orientation, but also enabling the eventual breakdown of family and society as a whole.

I know politically correct compost when I see it. I was in college in the early 1990's in California when it was strewn far and wide.

AceAttorney, there you go again defending your opinion and trying to convince us of our wrongdoing. It's not going to happen, so just give it up already. Afterall we're guys. We have to get hit over the heads with sledgehammers to get certain things. :)

The defense was so long that I didn't have time to read it. This is a new century. You need sound bites.

Steel Magnolias is right up there with Little Woman. Makes my skin crawl.

The only good part of Steel Magnolias is when Tom Skerritt is trying to scare the birds out of the trees. That was guy stuff.

On topic: the latest addition to my favourites list:

The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep. Sometimes, I just take a bit of a gamble on seeing a film. I'm very unsure on whether or not I'll like the film, but I see it anyway. Last Friday, I took a chance and saw this film. The way the trailers had looked, I thought it could be extremely good or extremely bad, with little potential for a middle ground. Fortunately, it turned out to be brilliant.

Some films just matter, beyond mere notions of entertainment and fluctuating cultural perceptions. This is one of those films. It shows universal truths in a way that is at once fantastic yet grounded, sad yet uplifting. The acting, scenery, music, special effects - all great in and of themselves - merge seamlessly into an intricate whole.

One reviewer (sadly their name escapes me) made an apt comment about the film: "The finest film of its kind since E.T."

Oh, and let's face it - Crusoe is awesome.
