Yes, I would sell my baby for 3 trillion dollars. I have not ever been pregnant, and I hope to never be. Therefore, my view on parental love/bond is void. The op said "your significant other" because the OP is male. It's a simple mistake, not an insult against women.
No I am not an immature teenage male. I'm a twenty year old female.


Anyone offering that amount of money is most likely not going to abuse/sodomize/kill your baby. You can do that for free in any country, so why pay?

This is OFF-TOPIC STOP TAKING IT SO SERIOUSLY

If you won't stand up for what you believe in, no one else will.


Like dead baby jokes, racist jokes, and sexist jokes? If they're supposed to be offensive, they stop being funny.
Seriously, grow a sense of humor. I hang out with people (including women) who don't mind being insulted as long as it is all for shits and giggles.

I haven't read all of this, but as ive seen its turned into a battle of the sexes. But i can tell the op doesn't have Children. My parents love me, and wouldent give me up for any amount of money. A real parent who had the resources to take care of their child would keep them.

I know Taurucis, and as a girl being part of a small majority of a majorly male dominated game/ forum, she has to stick up for herself. Most people don't know each other irl here, so you wouldn't show sh*t about them, and whether your stereotypes and prejudices here are true.

To be honest, women have suffered more throughout history. About 2000 years ago, women were seen as "second-class" citizens and were thought of as worthless except for reproduction. In the medieval times, women were forbidden to do much of anything except become nuns or marry, and there were huge amounts of stupid restrictions and laws that made life hell for them. Women have to suffer bleeding every month, and they're the ones who go through childbirth, and child-rearing for the most part.

I believe in perfect equality between men and women.

If you don't take things seriously, no one will take you seriously. People will see you as a joke if everything you say is a joke.

That doesn't make them a lesser sex. Blacks were also put through an even harder time but that doesn't make them a lesser race. Yes women got it crappy with having to deal with periods and child birth BUT that doesn't make them a superior sex either. One sex can not survive without the other.

Really? Because many of your post look EXTREMELY femminist. Seems like you see women as the more superior sex.


(BTW People Women and Men are differnet GENDERS/SEX, NOT RACE!)

No. My point is that women are stronger in a sense, they have to endure more than men do, and they have endured more than men have.

Shes not being feminist, shes trying to stand up for her gender in a male dominated forum, against an anti feminist op. "Your significant other just had a baby..." Sure, selling a baby without the mothers consent- the person who you knocked up, the person who carried around another human body for 9 months, and who went through a painful labor. The op knows nothing about love, marriage, or sex, obviously.

Also:"...adopt you or put another one in the oven for 9 months You have no attachment to the baby, you haven't spent anytime with it." Something who you created out of your own dna would be a close enough attachment right? How bout watching your wife grow for 9 months knowing soon you would have a little one running around the house. I rest my case.

Have you read some of her post? If you go back and read them they do look extremely femminist.

No offense but while you women suffer so do us men. We don't like seeing the lady we love in pain, it eats us up inside because we know their is nothing we can do. Also the women can and usually do get so mad due to the pain that they begin to blame the pain on us. (Talking about when they are pregnant) We sit there with the woman while she is giving birth through all the labor pains and even hold their hands while they damn near break it. We get to run around being your personal servant for 4 months or however long you become swollen for. We make plenty of sacrifices for you women. No we don't have to deal with the physical pain that you women do but the emotional ups and downs we deal with are fairly severe.

Geez, she is not being a feminist.... She is just defending her views and standing up in a generally male dominated online game forum...

It's a thread on a forum, stop treating it so seriously...

No one who has had a child will want to sell theirs. It's a part of you and I don't think I could ever give mine away, be it for a dollar or 3 trillion in the OP's post. I fully agree with Shakti, and if you think otherwise, please never have a child.

All pwnd is doing is offering counterpoints to what Taurucis is saying.

I love when people say things like gtfo and shoo on a forum, where they can't do a single thing about it should the person decide to stay.

Both sides are taking this thread too seriously. I do believe the original question of this thread was "Would you sell your baby for $3 trillion", not "Are women inferior, equal, or superior to men?"

I smell a lock in the near future.

Women make sacrifices for men as well. Which is why the two genders are equal, one is not better than the other. Both should respect and serve the other as needed.

GUD ONE!

Seriously I do believe it was myself and others who told her to chill first. She was taking it extrememly seriously. Now this is a debate. I am not attacking her or anyone else. Simply rebuking what she is saying, kind of like a rebuttle. If you notice she was the one talking about taking things seriously. "If you take life too seriously you will never get out alive" (cookie to whoever names where that quote is from ). So instead of ganging up on people that are trying to actually have a debate and making sense I would say start aiming shots at people who are sticking to flat up flames.

Yes that would of been my point in that. You had already offered up the downsides of being a women, I shared the mens side to show that the 2 genders are equal. I am glad to see we see eye-to-eye on that point.

That is why I said IF. Plus it's a paraphrase from a quote from somewhere else. (Again cookie to who gets it!)

If that is really what you believe, you're doing a bad job showing it. The impression that you've given to some (myself and pwnd being a couple) is that you hate men and think we should bow down before the female gender.

And by the way, I completely agree with what I just quoted. It should be a give and take relationship, that's the way God intended it to be.
