This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

of course not, you're just being silly now. Local mullahs pass on the words and teachings of the Grand Mullah Tawakalna. Am I not as a river to my people?

they occasionally pass on news events that are deemed relevant and important for the people to hear, like what I'm having for dinner, stuff like that.

you'd think we Tawakalnistanis were some sort of medieval primitives or something? *Ban* speaking indeed. Even women are allowed to speak, in their husbands' houses of course, and in a respectful manner.

just look at the funkeh hot fashions on Wolstantonabad's swinging "Khan-a-Bey Street" where all the hip groovy set hang out..

I assume this is all meant to be a joke, like that other one about pimpmobiles.

And, of course, you all will say that my expression of dislike of these pictures are typically feminist nonesense. But the point I am trying to make, futilely it seems, is that making jokes about things like this where women clearly are being made to be
something less than human is degrading to women.

No matter how funny you think you are being.

Generally gender is not an issue. Our user names do not say if we are male or female. I am a 50+ year old man. With a passion for computer games..

AELK. not all guys agree with the way women are dipicted in the picture, but in this world, it does happen. No getting away from it.

It is true that there are places in this world where women are made to be second class citizens. Just as it is true that there are parts of this world where true slavery still exists.

Why not make jokes about owning slaves then?

i have a slave, she doesnt need much, just constant ingredients for cooking and her copy of "which mop" each month.

Post Sat Sep 04, 2004 6:55 pm

Oh very witty. A female slave at that? How typical.

Since you are actually posting more than once in this thread AELK, I would just like to say that I take umbrage at your constant generalisations. As Final has stated, not all those of the male gender are "chauvinistic male oppressors", or whatever you believe. I defy you to find one instance in which I have defamed or devalued women on this forum. Well, I could go on ad nauseam , but I think it's best if I leave it at that.

Note: Sorry if I end up getting this thread locked, but it had to be said.

AELK
If you know of someone who has been hurt , I am truly sorry. Just don't let a few opinions be taken for all. I my self see all as equals, because of religious reasons. But, I don't let other views get me down or upset as I realize that there are many difference in this life and on TLR. It's one of the reasons I like it here, to see those differences and the people with them. It does not mean I always agree, but it does mean I am trying to see both sides of the coin.

Aelk, stop getting annoyed, they'll just make more fun of you. Noone in this board support that kind of treatment to women or support slavery - they just do to tease you. Hell they do it with Locutus coz he's gay, Arcon's inability to get a girlfriend, and my affection for boiled raccoon poo (this one is true, I swear ) the only difference is the rest of us just take it and just jab back - in the same playful way of course. You once proclaimed yourself to be a feminist and they make fun of that. It's nothing personal although it seems that way.

Now play nice - us mods hate it when we have to interrupt our paper-rock-scissor competition

Arcon's inability to get a girlfriend
who've you been talking to? there all lies i tells ya, it'll never hold up in a court o'law

@AELK: that was comedy gold though

Post Sun Sep 05, 2004 1:54 am

in Tawakalnistan girlfriends are provided for all eligible males who require one. but not on Fridays.

where is AELK from? why don't you post in the "post your pic" thread, then we can tell if you're a honey or not. You don't have to wear a burkah, I won't be offended Why don't you tell us something about dinsoaurs too?

FF nothing wrong with sexual slavery thank you very much. The whole scene is very very deep.

Most slaves in this catagory are willing but lets not dive into that.

INteresting
@ALEK, just remember, you are doing exactly what these guys are doing when you generalise that all guys do it.
Yes the guys can be a$$es, but they are also a lot of fun and they can be very much fun, but just like you get angry about the way they talk about woman, they will get angry at your extreme feminism. By constantly insulting them you will just make it bad here for yourself and that will be no good, since TLR is the most fun Forums on the web. Just chill out a bit, please. If you still have probs, please mail me, my mail addy is in my profile.
@the guys, back of ok, just like you guys will defend guys, I will defend a fellow girl, even tho I dont agree with her. so please, be nice
