   On THIS ng, one can't assume fair and clear judgment concerning the   
   issue facing men and women.

   That isn't true.  What generality did I offer?  I just asked a   
   sarcastic question.

   What if you're wearing a speedo with you package all showing through.   
   Could a gay man consider that provocative?  It's the same thing if a   
   woman has half her breast out of a scanty top of a bikini.  Body parts   
   are being displayed for semi viewing.  Muscles are being show off.   
   Curves are being shown off.

   SEF was the original posters who is a loudly proclaimed and proud   
   misogynist.  He doesn't make any excuses or apologies for hated ALL   
   women and viewing ALL women as evil.  Yet, somehow in his grotesque   
   evil world, we men are just poor victims of this overwhelming evil   
   that covers half the earth.
