Here's something you might find interesting.
I don't keep track of who's male or female, because I really don't care. Some are obvious due to usernames, but if the username doesn't explicitly tell me, I assume nothing. I have no idea if you are a man or a woman, I have no idea what your skin color is. To me you are a collection of words on a screen - a thought. If I disagree with that thought, I'll post up and disagree. If you attack, I'll respond in kind.
I think some women might be put off by the responses they get on the internet. In face to face interactions, I treat women differently than men. I was rasied to be a gentleman, and if a woman is rude to me, I just put her in the 'bitch' category, keep my mouth shut and go on with life. But on the internet, if a woman is rude, and I'm not concerned with the sex of the author, they'll get what's coming.

Wow! 14 uses of "I". Why has your real estate agent not copyrighted "I" for you?

What is wrong with the use of the word "I" when you are talking about yourself? What word would you prefer? Or are you pointing out that Vicelord is extremely egocentric? The simple fact is that there are quite a few here that prefer to attack personalities then to discuss issues. It's intellectually lazy.
I would love to have lunch with you any time, of course I would remain the same gentleman I have always been.
I have no intentions of having lunch with VL, and we all know he isn't man enough to anyway. He is an antisemitic As*h*** and nothing will ever change that.
Sorry, I haven't responded to the invite till now, still having some major health problems.
Well i tried SG- I tried to extend an olive branch to the guy- I'd have happily smoked the peace pipe with him but he obviously holds grudges. I was more than willing to bury the hatchet and let his bygones be bygones, but unfortunately he can't let it go. Very petty and immature.
Not that it's a compition or anything, but I think everyone here can see who the better man is.

GUILTY!
Yes, i am..I really wanted to post about Ryans medicare plan and all the republicans that cut thier own throats by voting for it yesterday, but I did'nt have all the facts, and did'nt feel like looking them up, so I decided to just get on this thread and trash some of my nieghbors instead..Honestly, it's much more fun

You know i'm no doctor, and I don't even want to pretend to be one here but i think it would be a lot easier for you to breathe if you pulled your head out of your ass Nymisis..
