66. Alright..


The issue isn't their right to control who is on their land (assuming they own the land); the issue is the means they used against someone who wasn't a threat to them.

How do you KNOW that?


This man Cat was a trespasser. He wasn't physically harming them, and he wasn't stealing their property. Burning down his house and putting a knife to him is simply unjustifiable. The proper response is to notify the police of a trespasser and have a restraining order taken out on Cat.

Have you ever been in a domestic abuse situation? Ever been stalked by a male? Restraining orders do not get followed up,They don't.A restraining order is a joke.

My point about eliminating 50% of the population pertains to the inflammatory title of the article and your thread: "A world without men".
And the title alone is what is causing your reaction,nice hysterics.
Anyways these women lived in their camp without men,most of the time.Men VISITED.



Yes, women have the right to cut themselves off from any contact with men so long as they are on their own property. They have absolutely no right whatsoever to try and cut men out of the wider world.

They were not doing that.The guy Cat was very possibly trespassing. People can buy many many acres.And if these women had acres he would be a trespasser. People can get SHOT for trespassing in certain states in case you haven't figured that out yet.Castle law ins the idea You have right to use deadly force to defend home: That now extends to where ever you are in some states.

It seems to me that you are trying to paint all men as being like Cat. One man out of 3 billion trespasses and thus men are always interfering in women who want to be left alone? Again, just what is your point in posting this article on DU?

My point was to get people to THINK and to not REACT.It was to open up the idea that not all women want or desire men,and they do not wish to do domestic roles,and that is their right.
To get the concept that being different does not have to mean being bad,..One can GET the idea to separate from people that you cannot cope with does not have to be bad either,can be a choice and any choice creates boundaries,and whatever they are ,Boundaries need to be respected.
Rapists are the ultimate disrespect-ors of human boundaries.
And they should be restrained in whatever way that works until they stop invading others boundaries.

You are REACTING,not thinking here.I know you don't like hearing that but that's what I see in your words.
