In all seriousness, I'm far from a volunteer in women' rights or anything, but thanks to the chruch group I work with, I've been to Vietnam and poo poo, to teach unprivileged children to read, to write, and stuff with taking care of livestock. I've seen a poo poo ton of left wingers there, most of us where, but I've never seen a single SJW/weird twitter person doing what they preach.

Derailing and suppression of sexism-related discussion on https://www.rpg.net


We’ve previously had a serious problem with female gamers being made to feel unwelcome on the forum by systematic derailment and suppression of discussions of sexism. As a result we have identified a number of behaviours that we will infract.

These include:

- Threadjacking discussion from the female to the male experience of an issue
- Denying the experiences of female posters
- Demanding to be educated on the subject
- Concern trolling (such as "But I'm concerned discussion of sexism will drown out discussion of the good things about $GAME")
- Questioning the validity of sexism as a phenomena or a topic of discussion at RPGnet
- Demanding that the debate be reframed (e.g. "This debate is too emotional"/"This should only be about solutions, not criticisms" etc.)
- Accusing other posters of looking to be offended
- Accusing male posters of "White-Knighting" or otherwise arguing against sexism solely for the approval of women

I like how one of these moderators is now a moderator here.

Not really. Zoe said that she thought pretending you weren't sleeping with someone else would be a deception, which would remove the validity of consent. It's a legally sound position.

i mean seriously, just wrap your head around this.

iran, the loving nexus of absolute evil as far as gullible westerners are concerned, allows people to be transgender, up to and including the right to marry, officially, after they had sex-reassignment surgery

meanwhile in the kingdom of saudi arabia, an entire class of schoolgirls was left to perish in a fire because all firefighters on the scene were male

Conditional consent is a term like enthusiastic consent that has been kicked around a lot in socially progressive communities. Julien Assange is literally a fugitive hiding from a charge that uses conditional consent being violated = sexual assault right now as an ongoing thing. Obviously there are some flaws with the definition considering how ubiquitous infidelity is, you'd have to arrest half of america if you turned this into a legal thing you actively went after rigorously (though to be fair the same kind of applies for intoxicated=can't consent). It is however her own definition and a definition a lot of people in that community would agree with if it wasn't being used against a woman they support.

not globally (easy poo poo), but the middle east and the US ally and nexus of misogyny in the region, the kingdom of saudi arabia

It's not insane, it's a pretty sensible definition. If someone tells you that they won't have sex with you under certain conditions and you actively lie about those conditions to keep having sex with them then yeah you're kind of violating their consent and they may feel sexually violated upon learning you did that. Yeah I get it causes a legal quagmire (though so does drunk=can't consent to sex, I mean how many of us have raped someone on that definition?), but in terms of thinking someone is a bad person morally for violating those standards it's pretty fair.

e: to reiterate it also has legal precedent in some countries. Like it's not a randomly internet made up thing but there is at least one high profile case where they are trying to charge someone with that exact crime right now.
