I'm not saying their claims aren't true, I'm just saying that they haven't presented any arguments or data in the article.
Edit: Haha, I didn't realize my original comment was flagged. I guess I was wrong to call it "bullshit", I should have called it "propaganda". But probably even that would be to "politically incorrect" (or "inconvenient") to be acceptable here...
- untog 11y agoThat's the beauty of hyperlinks - linking to relevant content without having to repeat it.
- untog 11y agoAnd RE: the edit I just noticed that you made, you appear to have confused "propaganda" and "politically incorrect" with "factually correct". A claim was made and backed up with data-driven scientific study and you still aren't able to perceive it as anything other than propaganda? I feel sorry for you.
- tomp 11y agoWhy don't you comment on petra's post then?
- untog 11y agoIt's a reasonable post that makes points I, frankly, am not qualified to judge, so I will not try to. Your post stated that the author had provided no argument nor data, when it did exactly that. I am able to judge the existence or non-existence of text, so I replied.
- pavel_lishin 11y agoYou also called their claims bullshit, without doing any research or bothering to present any arguments yourself.
- tomp 11y agoNo, "bullshit" was meant only for the way those claims were presented in the article. I didn't really see how they were relevant to the rest of the content (and to the title). It seemed like somebody thought "Oh, we could slip some feminist propaganda in here!"
- pavel_lishin 11y agoSeems pretty relevant to the article; it explains why innovation in the field of menstruation has been so slow. It's pretty relevant background.
