Is barbelith sexist?

Dear barbelith readers,
I would just like to draw your attention to the fact that I am the sixth highest poster on this board putting me directly under flyboy and slightly ahead of Keggers in the race for supremity.

Now considering my position I feel that I have been neither lauded nor hated enough. Especially considering my consistent and profound love of Roxette, exemplified by the many photos of Marie and Per that I have graced you with and my execution of the rot Operation Mindfuck plan that worked beautifully.

I have one question, do you not love or hate me because I am a woman?

Lord Morgue

What's wrong with being sexy?

Oh.
Never mind.

Triplets

02:51 / 19.08.05

I'm pretty sure your as loved as any other bloke on the board. Could it be you're just not as interesting as the other top posters?

Tryphena Absent

02:56 / 19.08.05

Well I considered that but then I remembered that I was brilliant.

Triplets

I think you need to be more gay or more acerbic. That seems to be the most valuable commodity on Barbelith.

So, you need to be really shitty to everyone else whilst warping every thread so it's about your own sexuality.

Nina.

NINA.

You need to become... Craig.

Watch out, Nina. Im at #274 and rising.

I had no idea that page existed.

Why don't you just latch onto any post you can find any little thing wrong with, whether the poster intended it or not, blow it out of proportion and rant about it for a while?

Jack Denfeld

I don't know. Some of the high posters are kinda "late shift" inflated.

But on a somewhat related note, does anyone know if it hurts to get kicked in the vagina? I'm sure it hurts, like at least like getting kicked in the leg or shoulder might hurt. But does it super hurt? Like getting kicked in the testicles? This guy X and girl Y were wondering about this, and X kicked Y in the vagina and she fell down and said it hurt, but I always wondered if it hurt like nuts or thigh.

But anyway, I think most people like you just fine Nina. Several members have privately posted about giving you kisses, and I would gladly buy you ice cream if we ever met.

jeez, if its not one thing its the other.

broads. whattya gunna do?

(feel better?)

Having fallen on the jungle gym in that general vicinity, I can assure you, Denfeld, that it hurts like fuck- far, far more than it hurts when one gets hit in the thigh. I have never gotten jabbed in the high ball though, so I can't tell you how that compares.

Getting punched in the breast hurts like fuck too.

Oh, and Nina, it's not because you don't have a dick, it's because you're not enough of one. You need a few ongoing feuds, I reckon. I'll whine about how you persecute me if you need a springboard.

Jack Denfeld

05:30 / 19.08.05

I've never had a feud and the people seem to love me. I have been a little "look at me" and "hey I'm your king!" in the past though, so that may help.

Jack Denfeld

05:34 / 19.08.05

Getting punched in the breast hurts like fuck too.
I've always wondered about that too. Like when someone accidently gets hit or elbowed in the tit they're always really fast to grab themselves and get a wince on their face usually followed with "you hit my boob asshole". But I was never sure if it was like a cover up the girl part and chastise the person for touching the girly part, or an actual that fucking hurts dickhead, try not to hit me thing.

But now I know, and knowing is half the battle!

(Getting hit in the jugs really fucking hurts. Depends on the time of the month how much it hurts: Like, if you get hit midcycle you'll be all Ow, but if you get hit on the runup to Aunt Flo's visit you'll crawl around on the floor whimpering for half an hour, before going after the assailant at a run and ripping hir fucking lungs out through hir spinal cord.)

Nina, everyone hates you because you're a stupidhead and a GURL. Sorry, but that's just the way it is.

Bear in mind also that women frequently have higher pain thresholds than men, so we may seem like we're experiencing less pain, but in reality we're just harder than you deficient bastards.

Sax

06:04 / 19.08.05

I'm not sure I believe that you actually are a woman, Nina. Can we have some signed testimonies, please.

Jack Denfeld

06:07 / 19.08.05

I'm not sure I believe that you actually are a woman, Nina. Can we have some signed testicles, please.

Benny the Ball

Sally sally sally, do keep up. The pain threashhold thing is a myth, it's just that men are better at expressing it than you dames are. Unless you are a superior ginger, ginger women will one day rule the earth...

Jake, Colossus of Clout

06:22 / 19.08.05

I thought Sally was a (former) Ginger Ninja?

That's some hardass business, there.

I fear Sally.

Mazarine

06:52 / 19.08.05

I was indeed once the ginger ninja, but conceded the title to Gingerbop. CCOAL stands for another Scarygoround reference, namely "Custom Car of All Ladies."

And yes. Ginger to boot. And really Benny, "dames?" You're going to have to grow a bit of chest hair before that fedora sits right, sport.

Jake, Colossus of Clout

07:02 / 19.08.05

Benny is so '30's.

You were silly to give up the "ginger ninja" moniker, Sally.

Sally Dammerung, Ginger Ninja.

No offense to the C.C.O.A.L., but that just demanded, no, REQUIRED, respect.

Mazarine

07:08 / 19.08.05

Perhaps, however, Gingerbop is the original gangsta, and I must respect that.

Benny the Ball

07:22 / 19.08.05

Sally and Gingerbop in a tag team, you really could rule the world you know. What's wrong with Dame's? Jeez, you Twists are all the same...

Axolotl

07:29 / 19.08.05

Benny, these broads are crazy.
And Nina, if you want to be lauded and/or hated more you should start feuds with people, leap into other peoples' feuds, and possibly conduct a grandiose scheme to seize control of Barbelith and rule with an iron fist. Any of these should get results.

Benny the Ball

07:34 / 19.08.05

Nina, I think it's probably because you're a no-good 2002 newbie.

ONLY NICE THINGS

07:41 / 19.08.05

Besides, from our "own petard" department, nobody really gives a shit about Keggers either. Maybe only the top 5 count...

Lord Morgue

07:49 / 19.08.05

What we need is a hermaphrodite with all the optional extras, who can really compare a boot to pinky with a boot to percy. My wife, who always aims low herself, often asks for a play-by-play of my subjective experience as I lie writhing on the floor, cupping my "precious". I always say, it's like getting the wind knocked out of you by a punch to the belly, plus a touch of being poked in the eyes. I imagine the female experience to be a bit like being kicked dead in the arsehole with winklepickers without being given enough warning for a defensive CLENCH.

ONLY NICE THINGS

07:54 / 19.08.05

On the plus side, furries can presumably retract their sensitive parts into their bodies, like kangaroos.

Loomis

07:58 / 19.08.05

There are people on that list who haven't been around the board for ages who still have double the posts I have.

I guess it's because I only post when I have something important to say.

Ahem.

Jack Vincennes

08:40 / 19.08.05

Loomis, I tend to put that down to the fact that everyone else doubleposts more than I do.

Actually Nina we care about you quite a lot, we just don't always like to talk about it. I think you're on the right tack with this whinging thing, though, that's always a good way of making people love or hate you. It would be better if you posted more about how you like Roxette but you aren't sure whether or not you should ask them out though.

Cat Chant

09:10 / 19.08.05

Nina's a girl???

Loomis

09:24 / 19.08.05

As usual, Deva has to try and force Nina into a boy/girl binary definition of gender. No wonder ze's confused.

Benny the Ball

09:30 / 19.08.05

You people have genders?!?

Sax

09:33 / 19.08.05

And geese.

Loomis

09:44 / 19.08.05

I hear what's good for the gays is good for a gander.

Mazarine

09:45 / 19.08.05

And with genders revealed, dozens of Barbelith slash fanfics suddenly find themselves het. Thus we must cringe and recoil.

illmatic

11:20 / 19.08.05

I had no idea ...

Personally, I am appalled that we allow girls on Barbelith at all. I thought this supposed to be about the creation of a elite squad of theoretical savvy homosexual warrior monks to fight the revolution? That's what I signed up for, anyway, and now you all just want to talk about hairspray and My Little Pony...

Tch.
