@Procrastinatron

I love that name by the way. Procrastination is my middle name!

As a female I of course deplore sexism in any form, but I do feel that a lot of it is perceived sexism and I can't be doing with anyone who takes political correctness to the extreme. Of course it exists and women need to fight against what can still be a man's world... but I truly believe that for the most part, men get it. Well I say get it... they are probably even more confused as to what is and isn't acceptable to think and say than ever before.

My son asked me the other day why women say that men don't understand them. He's 10. God knows where he's heard it, but it was a very amusing question and one that is difficult to respond to a young boy. I told him that essentially men and women work on very different emotions and while neither is wrong or right, that difference can be very confusing to guys because women are often driven by their emotions and men are often more logical in their approach.

I also told him that women find men just as hard to understand because they assume that guys don't get them because they don't care enough and that this isn't necessarily the case. We're just very different creatures. People are people, sometimes men are crap and sometimes women are crap, don't ever listen to "All women are/all men are..." He said, "Oh I understand." The poor kid lives with just me and his raging hormonal 14 year old sister, haha.

Interesting about Swedish women in your experience. Sounds like Assange is hiding out for very good reason. Wonder what that was all about, eh?

I'm used to people just getting incredibly angry at me whenever I take a position that is in some way in opposition to some facet of feminism, so thanks for not doing that.

And yeah, it's possible that I'm taking it way too literally. It just feels like I've heard this stuff so many times, and it always makes me sad. I mean, I'm Swedish, and here in Sweden, radical feminism is essentially ubiquitous. A bit less than half of all the female teachers I've ever had have been so aggressively feminist that they've made their ideology part of their curriculum no matter what their subject has been, and have passed off doctrinal truths as scientific fact.

And... it wears down on you. Not the stuff about equality or treating women like people because all of that stuff is just FANTASTIC. Rather, it's all the stuff people either won't talk about, or will attribute to some insane radfem groups they'll claim are so small that they almost can't be said to exist at all. In other words, it's all the stuff people usually don't want to admit is there.

The reason you didn't know these things is because your thought-leaders intentionally hide information from you

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_Sweden:

Immigrants were five times more likely to commit sex crimes.[3] A report by the Sweden Democrats published September 2010 and compiled from 114 of 253 court rulings from around the country, stated that 48% of convicted rapists in Sweden in 2009 were born abroad.

May 29, 2013:
Sixth night of violence in Sweden
"In Linköping, central southern Sweden, police responded to 120 incidents as cars, caravans and two schools were set alight. At one point a blazing truck was rolled into a building, which caught fire."

The police are useless:
But while the Stockholm riots keep spreading and intensifying, Swedish police have adopted a tactic of non-interference. ”Our ambition is really to do as little as possible,” Stockholm Chief of Police Mats Löfving explained to the Swedish newspaper Expressen on Tuesday.

”We go to the crime scenes, but when we get there we stand and wait,” elaborated Lars Byström, the media relations officer of the Stockholm Police Department. ”If we see a burning car, we let it burn if there is no risk of the fire spreading to other cars or buildings nearby. By doing so we minimize the risk of having rocks thrown at us.”

Ive watched 20 mins so far, and I have no problem.

However I'm Swedish and used to watch slow, factual, documentaries with a non-mainstream type of setup.

So I wouldn't be surprised if your brain has been washed too much with the bleach that is insta-super-news a'la Fox/CNN/Etc format of information feed.

I'm just posting to see what other people think, but:
Does something about Democracy Now rub anyone else the wrong way? They report on everything that's generally in my realm of caring, they interview people that, while I can't verify who they say they are, seem to touch on the meaningful subjects from a level of authority, but every Democracy Now clip I've ever seen on the sift just... I don't know if I've upvoted a single one, but I can't explain why at all. It's just this feeling I get from their videos, and I was curious if anyone else had that impression.
I know it's irrational, but that's why I'm trying to find out the cause.
