How does one come to a conclusion that inequality is good is beyond me

I'll believe anything I think I've seen sufficient proof for, and start to disbelieve anything I've believed before if I feel the idea in question has been sufficiently discredited. What denomination is that?

No need to thank me, cypherdoc. I feel privileged to be part of Bitcoin and help out where I can.
I strongly believe this will finally bring a huge and positive social change to our society where people aren't enemies and strangers to each other anymore.

But please look into how to open/forward port 8333 so you don't have to start Bitcoin client with -addnode= switch.
It will help other people to avoid this same problem

All moa said was:
Quote
Females will catch on to bitcoin after it becomes a reliable measure of male desirability .... in an average female population sense that is ... generally they follow the crowd, not lead and seek comfort and security in peer re-enforcement of their choices

Which in my opinion and experience is a very accurate observation. So when RobertFawcett tried to tell him/her it's not, I disagreed.
Women are physically weeker and not technically-minded. They make allies with men so they can "survive" - that's a simple social contract. They've been doing it for centuries and will be doing far into the future. This is how we evolved. Why is it so difficult to accept ourselves for who we are?

Sorry, I don't participate in mass delusions

Like cypherdoc mentioned you need to let your client listen on port 8333.
As a quick fix try closing your client, open up terminal and run
Code:
bitcoin -addnode=69.164.218.197 -addnode=64.22.103.150 -addnode=173.242.112.53 -addnode=178.79.147.99 -addnode=184.106.111.41 -addnode=91.85.220.84 -addnode=173.224.125.222 -addnode=86.5.50.90 -addnode=178.255.199.86

If you feel the need to appeal to people who are out of touch with reality, be my guest. I have my opinion and I expressed it.
Bitcoin is not a "product", we don't need to "promote" it and I am not from a marketing department!
Bitcoin is a tool. If people find it useful, they will use it. I don't believe in artificially persuading people, men or women, that they "need" something.

Paypal is inherently sexist. I have never heard a woman call another woman a "pal."

I think more laws would help. We need one, so gay people feel accepted, black people can feel "colored" and women can feel like men. Oh, the beauty of legislation and political correctness  Grin

Wait, if it's in the client, I just checked the box, but still no connections so far...

Restart the client and give it some time
371  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is men's toy on: May 29, 2011, 06:06:30 PM
I'm afraid, I'll have to give up at this point

I don't care about the sandwich jokes, but this kind of stuff you're saying isn't a joke. It seems more likely to me that females will catch on to Bitcoin when they realize it can be used to buy things they want, using is as a measure of male desirability doesn't even make sense. I really hope you are not in this game to increase your desirability among females, if you are you, have a few things to learn.

If you don't see this, RobertFawcett, I'm afraid it's you who has few things to learn. You may be different, and it was not an attack - just a mere observation

I should mention that anybody who just wishes to use bitcoin client on one computer at a time on a home network, should first try enabling "Map port using UPnP" which is in "Settings"->"Options". If you're in luck and your router supports UPnP, you won't need to add nodes/do port forporwarding manually.
