Do GAF girls act like men in threads ?

I got more comfortable being around folks with foul mouths on The Palace 10 years ago (Shinobi, sporsk, blackclouds, nos, nerbo, dr j, dem, sjoshlin) so it sort of became more standard in my vocabulary. I try to avoid a lot of usage here though.

Maybe it helps everyone fit in or something.

We are bad influences.

I like it, that makes us Punk Rock!

Most of the women I know "talk like guys" if that means discussing things like sex and masturbation.

I think somewhere aroun college girls are allowed to like sex, the double standard drops and we can all chill the fuck out.

...this thread confuses.

EDIT: That said, I do assume every girl in every thread is cute. I only know for a fact that one of them is cute, but the rest MUST be. THEY MUST.
The dudes here on gaf are suprisingly good looking so...

Heh, it's probably the first one. I have another 1500 words to do.

But one of the sources for my paper mentioned a rumor that Ernest Hemingway liked to be sodomized by his wives. That was pretty interesting. :lol

I think a bigger issue than some potty-mouth, is how 'everyone' throws around the word rape like it's going out of fashion.

This is a very ugly word with a literal meaning that I'm not so sure many people who use it a lot have really sat back and thought about. I'd like to see it's use in a 'gaming' sense disappear.

(29 year old male with 3 year old daughter by the way if that helps anything).

Why would really girly girls like games so much to register on GAF, wait for account activation which can potentially take years? Especially if they're attention whorey, they'd just find a lowly fan community for a random game and gain attention there since they'll definitely be the only one there.

Happened a couple times on a forum I used to go to.

What the hell? Only manly girls like games? :lol

Edit: And what the hell, OP? Proper girls don't swear?

I don't swear in public and am not a person to use foul language. Always try to give an opinion in an appropriate manner. Sometimes I think 'fuck' but don't say it, I do use 'shit' more and in public though. There is only one person where I do use words like fuck around sometimes, because he says it sometimes and I got used to it, also I don't hold back with him. I use the word 'fuck' to tease him as well XD

That isn't what I'm saying. I'm just saying it's the alternative sort of girls who would go out of their way to spend 6 months+ waiting for an account to be activated on GAF.

They only have impact if you give it impact. You can call me whatever, won't affect me.

So never give a word power.

Maybe I only know very bad women, but things such as cunt are pretty common speech for my female friends. Don't see why girls on GAF would be any different.

a task perfectly normal for the males of the world.

lets face it, no one on this forum is going to be normal.

this is like asking why there aren't many jocks at your bimonthly conferences on the state of the trading card industry.

You've never been to ONTD? 90% of the posters there are girls and they act, respond, and GIF-replying just like anyone on GAF. That means using "son, I am disappoint", "Do not want", and other various online responses we use here.
Click to expand...

Exactly. This might surprise some guys here, but girls are people, too - they're not made out of delicate china or something. WhiteKnight/RiskyChris-GAF seems to be under the weird apprehension that all females are shrinking violets who can't be exposed to the horrors of the world, which apparently includes swearing and words infused with sexual imagery.

'Rape' isn't a name you call someone; it's flippantly using a word that normally, and should, carry a lot of weight.

And surely you can see in a discussion about language that 'I don't care so why should you' has no place...

Funny how the male Gaffers keep posting in this thread in order to stimulate more answers from actual girls.

OH NO THEY DID NOT

Warning: posters are mostly girls and gay guys. So occasionally there are some explicit gay porn gifs/discussions flying around. I thought I'd give advance warning since some men are shrinking violets when it comes to pictures of naked/half-naked men (often used as avatars there).

Not all power is that which you give them. And some people will be affected since they haven't learned that valuable lesson.

So hey, be a douche, that's cool. I find it better to be someone who doesn't go around offending people unless there is something else to be gained from the exercise.

Or do you feel like going into the Transgaf thread and throwing around words like 'trannie', 'it', or 'dickgirl'?

What exactly constitutes posting like a "man"

There are forums I used to go to populated by the vast majority by women and there were plenty of dirty words being strewn about there as well.

You're totally right. I just went up to my mom and said "Cunt."

She got so pissed off but why the fuck should she? It's just a word. Cunt should get the fuck over it.

You act as though people sit glued to their computer waiting anxiously for that activation. I signed up and forgot about the place until I got the e-mail one day.

Who gives a shit about wheter or not they're male or female?

They're gamer so they are non-sexual beings anyway :lol

A few that I know do, yes. But normally they just act like girls. All cute and nice and stuff.

Do you feel the same away about the use of 'Murder' in gaming culture?
