An influential, impassioned, and highly intelligent bitcoiner is working to bring the light of reason to all things concerning child abuse. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMNj_r5bccUwZY7RCZnS2e5-vjaA7wSNw

But this doesn't play into the scam that ElectricMucus, NotLambChop, et al is trying to play on unsuspecting newb enthusiasts to get their coins. If you were wondering, that's why they won't mention him. Possibly they were victims of child abuse themselves and it has unfortunately promoted a deep sense of schadenfreude as we can see. I feel bad for you poor chaps, don't take it out on bitcoin.

Rhonda Rousey is one of the biggest stars and draws of the show. She beautiful, intelligent, and tough as fucking nails. A good role model for empowering women IMO.



And yet the toughest guy in any town with a population over 5,000 could beat her to a pulp. It's like being the midget who's best as basketball.

IMHO, a woman who can cook is more sexy. Why only value women who are good at men's stuff? It's really hard to be a good mom and a good wife, judging the the divorce rates and the character of this last generation of teenagers. We should appreciate the one's who do that job well and maybe that would incentivise the rest to try harder and quit wasting time trying to be badasses or things they probably don't have aptitude for and probably wouldn't enjoy as much.

I'll bet Rhonda can cook too. I'd marry her in a heartbeat and I KNOW she could still beat your firefighting redneck ass any day. Cheesy

Seriously though, I don't think you understand sports or MMA very well when you make those statements. Rhonda was an Olympic medalist judoka... and highly decorated world gold medalist. She is an athlete of high caliber and is now a complete MMA fighter who would knock the absolute fuck out of most tough guys in every city if they weren't near her skill level and training like a beast. Even male MMA fighters of her weight category would have a slim chance unless they were also of her caliber athlete.  

Big local tough guys with little training do horribly against much smaller UFC fighters as you can see here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9JpeKKBScA

So why would it be any different for her?

She is exceptional though and many women do like to cook, iron, be soft and feminine, and suck a boner like there's no tomorrow. I really like that in a woman as well. Cheesy

Well she certainly can't act. Did you see expendables III?  I don't fight women. I fight fire. If you're being attacked by ninjas, call Rhonda. If your house is burning down, call me.

I believe that it is not a coincidence that there are so few women who are "into" bitcoin.  Grin

bitcoin or computer science or engineering or any of the stuff that separates us from primitive subsistence-level savages.

When the first computer science courses opened in Brazil, women were often more that half of the students, and the brightest students were often women.  Over the years the proportion has dropped to the same level as in electrical and civil engineering, that is 5--10% or maybe less.

We had endless debates about why women don't apply to computer science anymore, with no conclusions.  It is not because computer science is "difficult". It is actually one of the professions where even dumb people can succeed.  There are plenty of women in medicine, chemistry, mathematics -- where you really need a functioning brain to work.  I taught intro computing to chemical engineering freshmen last semester, and to my surprise the class was again half women, and again some of the best students were women.

It must be some subtle thing in the popular image of the computer professional.  Perhaps the idea that he is an antisocial nerd who hardly leaves his mom's basement --- a way of life which may appeal to many adolescent men, but not to adolescent women.

Quote
women [ ... ] living in houses they didn't build, talking on phones they didn't invent, typing on computers they didn't program, driving cars they didn't design, going to stores they don't manage to spend money they didn't earn.

And you still think that men are more intelligent than women?  Cheesy

You can't even divide it up between genders like that, and I think BJA is a little off base there. We all have a relatively wide range of biological individuality (Except for maybe the Winkelvii Smiley )  Women tend toward different types of intelligence and other qualities than men as a group for whatever reason and we seem better off as a network for it. Women seem to tend toward social, emotional, and creative intelligence and men tend toward logical, rational, and physical intelligence but those are only tendencies and, again, wide ranges can be expected in any population.  Intelligence is a tough quantitative analysis to make and the tools are still crude at best.

It is an often repeated myth to say that all bitcoiners are men, white, etc. etc.  It's a pretty diverse group but of course the bell curve does lean heavily to the white male geek stereotype to the delight of naysayers who use that as some sort of racist, sexist argument against bitcoin tech. I reject that thinking and think some people should just get a life and go do something productive instead.  

  Case in point, it was only a small, hardcore group of men who were the initial enthusiasts for the Ultimate Fighting Championship. They were so hardcore, they would go train and fight for next to nothing in pay, fans would travel for miles to see the shows, etc.  UFC almost was shut down and experienced many times when either regulatory bodies or (John McCain) politiciansa called for bans.  There were less women in support of it than there is for bitcoin and most opposed it as violence.  Cooler heads prevailed though and now we are at a point of mass adoption where Rhonda Rousey is one of the biggest stars and draws of the show. She beautiful, intelligent, and tough as fucking nails. A good role model for empowering women IMO.








UFC is the fastest growing sport in the world now and that type of event only happened in Brazil a little over 20 years ago when I first found out about it and started watching and training MMA.  Bitcoin shows many of the same developments as the UFC in its early adoption on the way to mainstreaming.

I know you are likely busy Jorge but didn't get any comment yet. I enjoy reading your posts and you do have some insights worth more than a cursory glance. Could you see the parallels between the adoption of the UFC to mainstream and the mass adoption of our favorite "coin"? Maybe you have been looking at this thing more from a computer science aspect and missing out on the social phenomena?

I believe what you are trying to say in your knuckle-dragging way is that men are bigger than women. This is true, physically men will tend to be bigger than woman. That being said, I'd bet on Rousey to snap the nearest limb of any "toughest guy at the barbecue" you can find.

As for the rest of that, ummm you do realize that women are individuals, right? That some of them will be good at some things, and enjoy some things, and those things will be different for each woman, right? Oh who am I kidding? Of course you don't! You think of women as programs (which makes you an enormous dork, btw).

I suspect a woman (women?) you really cared about realized how brain-dead you are and dumped your ass for it broke your heart, and you've been judging all women as a result of it ever since.

I agree.  Is this garbage what we want the newbies who just watched that CNN special to read when they hit bitcointalk and look at active threads?

I understand that there's a fine line between trolling and a completely valid bearish perspective.  So it is not right to moderate on-topic bearish posts.  But the trash I'm reading today is not the image we want to present to new bitcoiners.  Letting it stay here is a bad idea if you care about Bitcoin, even if you care but happen to be short today.

So I'm here posting on this thread to ask other bitcoiners to en-masse ask the moderators to start monitoring this thread until the off-topic trolling -- in fact all the off topic posting -- goes somewhere else.  

Please reply to this post if you agree!!!   Drown out the garbage posts with replies so the trolls see how little we appreciate their off-topic "contributions".

And also start clicking the "report to moderator" link on off-topic posts to this thread.

thanks,
theZerg
It's the communistic approach: declare something to be a common property and then control it, for the common good.  Grin
Capitalistic approach would be creating your own thread, with your own rules, and making it more popular that this one. Sure, it's a bit harder to do.  Grin

Right.



I reported several child porn references to the mods by clicking report and by msg. Result : nothing whatsoever.

Yeah it is a fine line between free speech and censorship. But this is a bitcoin forum. Am I the only person who thinks NLC posting from an alt called 'childpronz' is grounds for being removed from the forum? This place is plumbing new lows.

Didn't watch the movie, I have little patience for Hollywood shit. I wouldn't call you for a fire though, I'm a long ways from you. Cheesy

P.S. Who would someone in your area call if they were attacked by ninjas while the house was on fire? Not you?
