Since this whole MRA thing started I, like mantis before me and like a moth to a flame, was browsing a few MRA sites for ammunition and revulsion.

I am no also getting mail order bride ads on my mobile. My PC is untainted.

In any case, the main determining factor in whether googleads gives you mail order brides, is whether you've visited an MRA website.

How do I know this? Because I look up a bunch of legal but largely unpleasant websites at times, often lead there by reddit but occasionally out of genuine interest (war videos etc. including quite a large number of recent ISIS ones, so you can imagine what they involve).

But it wasn't until I went to a few MRA websites, that googleads decided I was in need of a mail order bride. Death porn = fine. MRA = needs a mail order bride.

Just let that sink in.

FWIW I am in favour of mail order brides as a concept if the two adults treat eachother well (meaning they aren't your toy, fellas, they are a human being like everyone else) and the relationship is healthy. It also leads us closer to my goal of a unified human skin colour and appearance. Nice and brownish with a few light features would be ideal.

Liam Neeson is a 6'4" former amateur boxing champion of Ulster. I am pretty sure he could account for a 60kg woman (Rousey's fighting weight).
I can tell you that he definitely couldn't beat Rousey...

The link says that he is a senior Ulster boxing champion. I can't find any more information on that. Such as when he won a championship as a senior.

As far as I can tell, he started boxing at 9, and won a youth championship.

Anyway, so you think that Liam Neeson, a 62 year old man, who boxed as a teen, and possibly won a championship in a youth division in a province in Ireland...
Could beat Ronda Rousey, an in her prime, 27 year old, Olympic medalist for Judo, and currently undefeated Mixed Martial arts fighter... Holding a current world championship. And is talked about as one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world.

Liam would beat Ronda?

That's what you're saying?


You're wrong. And you have no idea what you're talking about.
And that's me being polite to you.

You literally laugh at the idea of women defending themselves and characterize an attempt at self defense as doing nothing but giving women a false sense of security.

Eh? no i didn't.

I said basic self defence for women is useless in preventing rape/domestic violence. Maybe you should actually read my posts before hitting reply.
This is not only infantilising but objectifying.

Objectifying now? Haha.

Respectfully I disagree.

Whilst I can't knock the froth off a capuccino, I've boxed a bit. PS' point about size and weight is spot on, it makes a world of difference, and its why more and more weight divisions have been created for combat sports. There is nothing hard about bashing someone, anyone, that much smaller than you. Its just physics, the biomechanics involved, the reach, strength etc.

My pa was 67 when he knocked out a (at the time) current golden gloves champ in his prime in a pub fight over some money.

My grandfather got in the first punch and had about 6 inches height on the bloke. My grandfather was no former Ulster champion.

But gender doesn't actually come into it.

How many fights has Rhonda Rousey won against men bigger and heavier than her?

Half the blokes in this forum could beat Rhonda, and that is purely a factor of sexual dimorphism.

Sorry that you find the biology of our species so offensive. It's not really my fault thought.

More utter s**t from the plonker.

These assertions are baseless, you might as well say that the average man can outrun the fastest woman in the world over 100m due to sexual dimorphism, despite the fact that very few people can run 100m sub 12 seconds.

Again, I am sorry that Biology fact doesn't align with PC ideals, but a young woman is only just comparable to a man > 48 years old in terms of athletic ability.

Welcome to the facts of life.

And this is purely in a contest of speed vs age. In martial sports where you are competing vs another person, weight is a hugely more important factor..

Who is the better boxer, Manny Paciauo or Mike Tyson? I don't claim to know, because I am not an expert on boxing. But I know who would win in a fight. Mike Tyson, easily. That is biological and physical reality. Sorry.

What the... ? You're saying the majority of men have been abused by their partners.

Really.

Got proof?
You realise that there are statistics in places where a heavy argument or creating fear can count as dv.
