I don't necessarily agree with your characterisation of what you deem usually shaming language..... But that's subjective so fair enough. Women are not a minority so I strike that comment after 'and you see' |

I will catch up on Sunday probably. It could take weeks for the jury to decide although I imagine it will more likely be days. Due to long weekend in US, could have a decision on Tuesday. Yesterday they sorted the jury instructions and any motions. Today each side has two hours for closing arguments....starting 2pm UK time...... They can use any evidence that is already submitted as part of their closing arguments... Johnny is going first then Amber. Not sure who is doing Johnny's, I know Ben Chew did opening so I imagine he will do closing. Last edited by ThomasC; 27-05-2022 at 08:45 AM. |

I see it all the time as well when people talk about girls at school, that girls are "bitchy" but boys are laid back and never act like that, if they have an argument they sort it with their fist raawr and are best friends again the next day. That's such a lie and one everyone believes for some reason. I have a son and a daughter both of them have had similar issues in their friend groups growing up. The difference is in the way people react to hearing about those problems, if a girl in a girl friendship group does something sneaky or bullying towards another girl in that group people say stuff like "That's girls for you" "Girls are so bitchy in school" where as if a similar thing happened in a boy friendship group the individual boy is blamed as being a bad apple or else he's like a girl.

Disagree and such sweeping generalisation. How about that person is a bully, he's trying to fit in, she's trying to fit in,jealousy, peer pressure, hormones etc. As for the example you quoted that I used, that's your opinion of what it would feel like for a man being called that. It's like you expect special treatment |

Also, how am I using sweeping generalisations when I'm talking about my own experiences

Your second part, because you're applying your own experiences to then imply that most would feel that same way or view that (your words, 'people'), that's just girls for you and men are bad apples or else he's a girl. I don't doubt that some would say those things, but it's not a true reflection of reality as a whole. It's sweeping for those reasons. How about take the sex out of it and call it for what it is? Rather than having this male and female divide which often doesn't need to be there......calling it rather bullying, age related behaviour, hormones, peer pressure etc which is all very prevelant in school environments regardless of sex. Let's deal with equality and diversity on that level. Last edited by ThomasC; 27-05-2022 at 09:20 AM. |

Is that really the crux of the issue, then? You don't believe that women can face oppression - or at least not the same kind of oppression - based on being women, because they are not a literal minority by-the-numbers?

I gave an example a few pages back quoting religion which would not be specific to one woman, but women as a whole. Clear misogony based on beliefs. You tried to use women as a minority when comparing what minority groups face hence my comment. Last edited by ThomasC; 27-05-2022 at 09:30 AM. |

I think we’re off in endless circles again because there’s a fundamental disagreement about the term misogyny itself that makes the rest of the discussion possible… with ThomasC believing it only applies to a broadly held belief system about women in general and not agreeing that a targeted attack on one woman based on gendered traits is indicative of underlying misogyny. Not to beat a dead horse but I just don’t really know where to go when someone sees phrases like “fish market” and disagrees that it’s misogyny. I found the other part of the text that makes me certain he’s talking about her being a “low value female” (Incel talk) in those texts;
“I met ****ing sublime little Russian here … Which makes me realize the time I blew on that 50 cent stripper.” A sublime little Russian? He talks about a women he even (apparently) likes as though he’s just bought a puppy. Or maybe a nice car. His thoughts are clearly on show and they’re gross and misogynistic… I’ve nowhere to go with this discussion when people can read these messages and say “nah, not misogyny” |

Yes I disagree that it is misogny, again, do I really need to explain my reasoning for this again? I am not denying it is deragatory and disgusting, but I don't know how you you get calling it misogony for reasons I have put forward numerous times. I really don't need to quote the definition of misogny I have asked for evidence in this thread to prove it is not an isolated incident because that would then form a basis for misogny, I have yet to see any other evidence other than derogatory comments towards one woman, namely Amber Heard.

No I'm not saying that. Special treatment, like I said before, you referenced and overlooked how a man should feel about being called a bitch....so what, women can get offended call someone a mysoginst freely and without evidence, but men should just get over it because it's not that bad being called that? It's all very subjective. B) Incorrect. I said that I didn't doubt those things were and are said, but that it's not a true reflection as a whole. They're stereotypes that men use fists and women are bitchy. I gave examples to the contrary as to how it could be viewed without involving preconceived traits of a particular sex C) your point must have gone over my head then because it seemed like you were backing up the view that particular sexes are viewed in a certain light, I take it to try and prove the point of misogny? |

Text Johnny Depp admitted to sending, explaining he was very angry. Notice OUTGOING The two text Johnny Depp denied sending, notice INCOMING The amount of crookered evidence that Amber Heard's lawyers have presented is ridiculous......the amount of evidence Johnny depps lawyers have presented destroys so much of Amber Heard's credibility. She didn't have much to start with. Look at the evidence. Evidence, evidence, evidence. The pictures, the audio, the video recordings..... |

B) - Why don't you think it's a true reflection as a whole? What are you basing that on. I told you why I think it's the case (having had children of both sexes who have been the whole way through the school system and hearing it a lot/also seeing it said A LOT online when the topic of male and female children come up. C) - I agree with your idea of what it should be like, people should be viewed as individuals with individual personalities. I don't however agree that this is what happens in a lot of cases (school children being my example) I wasn't making that up to suit an agenda if that's what you're saying here?

Basically Thomas if you're actually denying that sexism in attitudes towards how male children and how female children behave in friendship groups etc even exist then there's zero point in us having anymore conversation about it

This morning closing arguments.
Then it goes to the jury. We could have a verdict as soon as today. Or it could take days.

B) basing it on a lot of issues that are prevelant in schools Bullying being huge, peer pressure being huge, social learning theory being huge, yes it is said and they're stereotypes, but I feel there's a lot more to it and someone's sex has a lot less to do with it. C) we start talking about sexism then, don't we? Stereotypes. Going back to the whole misogny which is what this boils down to, is not really relevant most of the time to a school setting unless teenagers being teenagers have an innate hatred towards women. Yes there will be some. No I don't tihkbyou were making anything up. We've really gone off track here. |

I thought we were on about misogny. Sexism and misogny differ. Misogny is a hatred towards women. Sexism can lead to misogny.... For example, women should not wear boys clothes That could be an opinion and would be sexism, but it doesn't mean that person hates women. |

There's a reason (a very good reason) that the Heard team filed a motion to have the juror's names kept confidential for 12 months following the end of the trial. |
