Am I the only one who thinks race jokes are hilarious? Just because you have a sense of humor about them doesn't make you a racist. People are too damn sensitive.

Every day I see the same thing on this page. I see a feminist asking for rights in a hurtful way perpetuating a stereotype that all males are the problem. I see a misogynist say something hurtful back that starts a fight. I see a republican post something about how they are proud of Scott Walker. I see a democrat reply with something hurtful. I see a republican make an unsolicited attack on pro choice people, and a fight breaks out. It’s not an issue of free speech that we have on this campus, it’s an issue of lacking empathy. Think about how you would feel if someone attacks the things that you hold dearest and understand that you are causing that exact emotion in a fellow human being . Just because they say something hurtful to you, doesn’t mean you should say something mean back. You don’t even need to defend yourself because you don’t owe them anything. Your beliefs are yours, and you don’t need to justify them to anyone. A hostile word is more easily silenced by silence than by another hostile word, and when you have something that you believe to be worth fighting for, the best way to make the other side see your side is by open dialogue, not by personal attacks. Why can’t we have a feminist post a confession saying, “Hey, I’d like to explain why I believe there is substantial evidence that proves women are being oppressed and that they still have not reached equality. If you disagree come have coffee with me and I’ll listen to your side if you listen to my side. Make sure you come with evidence though; cuz I’m packing statistics! :)” I realize that this doesn’t cause instant results like one would hope, but I think the results would be better because it would change how they think when they are behind closed doors. On this campus, I think there are more advocates for the LGBTQ community than those against it, but this just causes opponents to stay silent for fear of public shame which doesn’t solve the problem at all because they will propagate the same stereotypes to their children because they truly believe being gay is wrong. I confess that I grew up a homophobe, but the person who changed my mind wasn’t someone screaming through a microphone. The first gay person that I met changed my mind by just being himself. He created open dialogue with me, and I realized that all of the stereotypes that I had built in my head were lies and now when I have kids, you can bet for damn sure that I’m not going to teach them that being gay is wrong. I’m going to teach them that whatever their sexual orientation, whatever their gender identification, they are normal, because there is nothing more normal than an individual being themselves. You should judge a person as an individual and not as a member of the stereotypes of the group/groups they belong too. I think that these feminist/humanist/anti-feminist rants could be solved by open dialogue. Have a sit down with someone who believes the opposite of you and explain your points without degrading the other person, and if at the end, they still believe different than you, at least you understand where they are coming from too, because most of the things in this world are subjective. My evidence is that I know Christians who aren’t homophobes, I know fraternity men who don’t even drink or have one night stands, I know republicans who are pro-choice and democrats who are pro-life. Every single assumption that you make about someone based on a group that they affiliate with could be wrong because there is multiple facets and beliefs to every organization that could make someone want to become a member of that group. Don’t call me Dolby because I’m not a stereotype.

To the couple studying in towers commons Monday around 4, you two are just too cute!! :) she was wearing a lime green and grey tank and he had orange Beats headphones on!! Seriously you two are just amazingly cute!!!

I have friends who are feminists that I really like. The problem I have with those loud minority type feminists is that they arent ever chlll about anything. I am a really laid back guy and I dont want to be walking on eggshells and getting screamed at ever ten minutes. Stop acting like oppressed victims, you have it better than most women around the world

I think the mix of stress from finals and my period is getting to me. I keep having dreams that I'm a (well endowed) hermaphrodite where I end up having some crazy sex (with 1 or more people male and female) or masturbate in front of a group of people. I know that is totally weird (maybe even a little fucked up) but I actually quite enjoy the dreams.

I fingered my girlfriend at the caf

I know that this isn't a popular opinion on campus but I'm so sick of feminists claiming to be in favor of gender equality when in actuality their actions support an agenda of female supremacy. The very fact that they call themselves feminists instead of a gender neutral term like egalitarian is proof that they don't care about men. The so called "war on women" is nothing compared to the war on men. Misandristic feminist groups are fighting to take away more rights from men but we can't call them out without being called sexist pigs.

I must confess, I need to know who this girl was that I met in the bathroom of 1213 Graham. I walked in and she insisted that men and women should be able to pee in front of eac other and proceeded to do so. We had a conversation will she did her business, then insisted I pull it out and pee while she was still in there. I had never peed in front of a girl and got stage fright, but kept talking to her all the while, you asked me my name and I told you my nickname, but you insisted on knowing my actual name. When I told you and asked for yours, you slipped out of the bathroom and responded, "It's a secret!"
