I don"t think anybody has a problem with your posts. If anything, the less "manosphere" commenters like you and Zach are especially important since you guys tend to give more of a "real world" male perspective.

I"ll be the first to admit that some of what I say here, on HUS, may not necessarily be very welcomed, or well received. (the site isn"t exactly intended for male audience)

Funny, Coop, but I"ve found that what I"ve said on HUS is generally well-received by the Queen and the target demographic (young women). It"s the older male regulars, the PC crowd, who seem to have problems with alterative opinions… especially from other men IMO.

You"ve actually challenged some conventional male wisdom, which is admirable. I think the ladies appreciate that kind of thing.

You"re a good kid, and I"m certain you"ll find that special girl one of these days. Maybe sooner than you think. If I did (3 years after college), a former omega-level loser, you will too.

Remember, it isn"t about a Blue Pill or a Red Pill. False Dilemma. There is a Green Pill…

I"ll be the first to admit that some of what I say here, on HUS, may not necessarily be very welcomed, or well received. (the site isn"t exactly intended for male audience) But I do feel that I am generally aligned with the site"s MO, and any hostility, on my part, should be taken as simply uninhibited opinion intend for perspective or discussion.

Because I can.

As I suspected. No actual valid reason. The ability or right to post, in and of themselves, aren"t good reasons to participate. My reasons for posting (rarely) are that I generally support the blog"s stated mission, and appreciate Susan"s knowledge and perspective. Can you honestly say the same?

I see absolutely nothing wrong with the Moderator showing someone the door when he or she is hostile or antagonistic towards THE BLOG AND ITS OWNER. You"ve got a thousand other places to go online. Crying about selective censorship on one site on the internet is always a weak argument.

And I"ve yet to see any compelling evidence that your opinions are representative of most men. They"re way too PC, for one thing. In that sense, you"re like most male regulars around here. But they tend to couch their sexism in polite, clever rhetoric. You might learn a thing or two from them…

Dissent is welcomed as long as it is respectful and polite. You are neither.

I did want to get answers to some questions that I have, but dissent is not tolerated on this forum. It is called "sexism" and discarded. That is why there is very little activity in these forums: no differing opinions.

But I see no prohibition in said rules against speculating about the politics of individual contributors. I wouldn"t call that generalizing at all.

I don"t know how to respond.

As you avoided my first point, which is the crux of the matter, I"ll put a simple, direct question to you: WHAT IS YOUR REASON FOR POSTING @ HUS?

As for your last statement: "...And I thought it was only the left that screamed about their free speech "rights" all the time…" This sounds like a very biased generaliztion to me. I guess you are breaking the rules now too

Certainly those who already know everything could start their own biased blogs?

I"ve noticed that internet anonymity tends to encourage contempt for basic rules and responsiblities.

And I thought it was only the left that screamed about their free speech "rights" all the time...
