there are very few HoF names in them, and the HoF people are not saying any of the things that "those who refuse to get it" attribute to feminists.

There was a single thread from you, which put forth the position that needed to be put forth: this depiction was not consensual, and was a depiction of rape, and should not be glorified.

The rest of them were all threads of jackasses running around with their hair on fire saying that people were trying to control consensual sex acts.

I have said it before and I will say it again: I believe that they truly "don't get it." Partly as Scootaloo says, because they're too fucking dumb, but also because there seem to be many of them who have mommy issues and use the feminists on this board as stand-ins for the mean mommy in their head. I think that is where all the censorship nonsense comes from when there is no actual censorship, and where all these made up statements from feminists about consensual sex come from that were never said by any feminist here! It is why they seem to believe that we have magic and evil powers to stop their actions or thoughts from afar.

Mommy issues.
