"lionhearted is not a troll. What he is saying it is actually resonated with what I think/do also."
A troll is as troll does. And this isn't about whether the two of you share some weird notion of "quality" in women. If you do, take it off line. This sexist claptrap doesn't belong on HN.
"I prefer taller women, and I prefer women who are built strong with good musculature, athletes, and girls with wider hips and shoulders."
Does anybody care a damn what someone's sexual preferences are like?
This is borderline locker room conversation - discussion of "long thin athletic" women, sexual history paraded as "education" for other readers, challenges to other people to compare their sexual lives with his (e.g:- "if you want to talk about relative social lives, sex lives, and dating lives, I'm happy to go there . We could compare and contrast, if you like, how your politically correct pseudo-chivalry is working vs. my slightly more gritty candidness")
Gritty candidness my foot! This sounds like juvenile frat boy crap to me.
It doesn't matter whether you have the same tastes.
I just happen to think such crudity should be kept off HN. If I am in the minority, so be it. Nothing prevents the lot of you from forming a private mailing list and exchanging vapid theories of "quality women".
Or are you saying your sexual fantasies and theories are of "intellectual interest to hackers"?
- FooBarWidget 17y agoI am more disturbed by your accusation of the (grand)parent being sexist than by the contents of their posts. You kinda sound like someone who would accuse people of being "sexist" because they use the word "mankind" instead of "humankind".
- camccann 17y agoFun fact: Did you know that the word "man" was originally sex-neutral? The generic term was co-opted for the specifically male sense centuries ago and the original masculine term mostly disappeared. So, fight sexism by using "man" in the gender neutral sense! Reclaim the language! (If you're wondering, the old terms were something like wer and wyf, prefixed to the generic "man". The latter obviously relates to "wife" and the compound wyfman shifted into the modern "woman". The compound werman disappeared, while the prefix remains only in terms like "werewolf", which is thus literally "man-wolf" in the distinctly masculine sense.)
