Sewing circles? Funnily enough I know a lot of women who would call themselves feminists and they are in a quilting group. They get together and sew their quilts and exchange quilting knowledge and more besides I would presume. Nothing wrong with men doing men's things and women doing women's things and both doing combined things. People get so worked up over nothing these days.
 

Who said sewing is women’s work? Operating a sewing machine has long been a core skill of the para riggers, those are the guys that pack and repair the parachutes.

Make friends with a rigger and they will whip you up all sorts of customized belts, webbing etc etc heavy duty sewing machines come in handy.

Check out this old video at the 1.10 mark.

 

Very clever when you think about it. Who else is going to take absolute care to make sure their parachute is in tip top condition. Well done.

In the Australian army the "Para riggers" are a specialist group that Pack and repair chutes as their main job, However about once a month they get assigned a random chute from the ones they packed that month and have to jump, Its a good quality control program haha.
 
I feel so lucky that I have totally lost interest in females. Just too much drama.

Unholy cow!!!

I am still trying to work out, whether or not, this Hailey creature is actually serious, or saying such things fascetiously, in the expectation of making some sort of counterpoint to such extreme views.
 



Boys Will Be Boys: Clementine Ford on how men are harmed by toxic masculinity

Thursday 27 September 2018 6:00am

About a month ago there was a popular thread on Reddit: 'Straight guys ... what's the most intimate moment you had with another guy?'

The question attracted over 12,000 comments, and the the answers ranged from stories of looking after a drunk flatmate by feeding him crackers in the bath, to lying in bed with a dying friend and saying you love them.

When self-described "angry feminist" and "notorious boner killer" Clementine Ford found this thread, she was both moved and saddened, she told Hack.

"One of the things I thought was very sad about it was ... some men are so held back by this idea of how men are supposed to behave with each other it takes a friend dying for them to lay in bed hold them and tell them how much they love them," she said.

Those are things women can do all the time because we're not subject to the same vigorous sort of policing of our heterosexual masculinity.

... 'Not all masculinity is toxic'
Whether or not it does lead to convictions, Clementine says the revelations of #MeToo have already helped reveal the way the patriarchy can distort men.

It has forced men to consider the effects of toxic masculinity on themselves.

"One of the things that people make the mistake of when they hear a phrase like toxic masculinity is thinking that all masculinity is toxic, which isn't true," she said.

"What they're saying is it's certain aspects of prescribed masculinity and the excuses made for masculinity that become toxic.

"The idea that boys can't help themselves when they're presented with a drunk woman is an excuse that's made to mitigate sexual assault. That's a form of toxic masculinity - taking aspects of masculinity and applying toxic ideals to it.

"I think it's toxic the idea that somehow men should reserve their platonic intimacy from each other in this country.

"I think removing toxic ideas around that and enabling men to actually connect with each other in really intimate platonic ways is a huge step forward."

Why ? Did you read the story ? Or is simply that any combination of the ABC and Clementine Ford creates a runaway nuclear reaction on ASF ?

That would be sad.

Joe has been discussing the level of general forum chat drowning out stock chat. Secondly, you make a post by a generally accepted misandrist and possibly Sociopath Clementine "have you killed any Men today" Ford which is going to inflame a reaction.

I did...and once again Clementine hijacked someone else's social media experiment to parade herself as the megaphone and oracle of virtue. How could a women ever understand the complexity of a male brain.

Yeah that got a lot of airplay. There have always been women (and men) who strategically position themselves to be the victims of some breach in protocol so they can peacock. The woman in this instance pantomimed a call to some authority, but conveniently forgot to push the call button, preferring to have an indignant conversation with her delusional self.
