    Brock University stamps out ‘prohibited’ Halloween costumes

    Prohibition is going to far...how are you going to know who the assholes are if you prevent them from wearing insulting costumes?! T There are so many good costumes out there that are hilarious, like my friends, one went out as a dill pickle the other went out as a female deer doe so together...

    Recruiting Posters, Slogans and Commercials [Merged]

    So I came across a few posters in the recruitment office in my hometown targeting women to join the army.  I thought the posters were tasteful and showed a good side of what the CF was trying to do. This article describes how they are trying to increase the number of women in the military from...

    Desexualized clothing instructions fail for gender specific directions

    A few of you have mentioned that the military is known to lag behind.  I am hoping that the military will be setting the precedent in a few years.  When human rights are upheld, seriously, and with respect, that's all that is needed to rise above.  Like the four major components of being...

    Desexualized clothing instructions fail for gender specific directions

    This absolutely falls short of what is expected of military personnel.  By pointing out specific items and then associating them to a gender breeds a false logic to young cadets.  Mainly that the sexes are different and should be treated differently.  Except that isn't what the military aims to...

    The 5 Most Exciting (And Gross) Realities Of Life In A Tank

    I like the stories, tanks, I'm curious what all these different maps are.  [lol:

    Any women beginning training?

    Hey mkil, thanks for that info.  I guess my biggest thing is, sometimes there are things nobody likes, that's fair, then there are things that are wrong, and crappy things seems to occur to the whistleblower, whether it's a man or a woman who says something. So change occurs, but the...

    The Canadian Peacekeeping Myth (Merged Topics)

    So what I mean is very literal.  Killing is not ever necessary, you never HAVE to take someone's life.  However taking someone's life to save others and/or your own life is a different story.  So in many faiths it is 100% against that religion to ever kill someone, even if it means you must...

    Advice for women on BMQ and other courses [MERGED]

    Thank you, though the last 3 paragraphs were unbearingly personal, your first paragraph does answer my question and acknowledge my point.  Acknowledging that women do face harassment in all careers is what I was trying to get across in my comments, except people responded thinking that I...

    Electoral Reform (Senate, Commons, & Gov Gen)

    What a great point! Now just cause I'm still super new to this topic.  The main reason I know the Greens want equal voting is because 12%(ish) of voters go for them, translating to parliament, they could have 3000% the amount of seats.  So is there another way of making voting more fair but...

    Advice for women on BMQ and other courses [MERGED]

    I'm really not, I actually had a legitimate question, but it got lost in this calamity.  I think it got started when my thread got blended with a bunch of others, and now it seems like many of us should be in a reality TV show together.

    Advice for women on BMQ and other courses [MERGED]

    Calling people out on being condescending isn't an insult.  I did call someone a ding dong...but they did imply I was a ding dong first.  So that was simply being fair-handed. When has mansplaining become a feminist term? I'm not a feminist! I will therefore stop using this term, forth-with, sir!

    The Canadian Peacekeeping Myth (Merged Topics)

    Your first point is mute, once you call small children "little shits" and it's okay to murder them As for your second point I agree, what I meant by other forces is exactly as you stated, so thank you for clarifying that, on my behalf and for others.

    The Canadian Peacekeeping Myth (Merged Topics)

    Western society has run marathons after WWII, that is becoming an archaic example.  So I won't feed into that example, because Africa has also made significant economic and societal progress in the last 10 years, never mind 70.  Tribe loyalty is present in minor ways, but nationality takes...

    Advice for women on BMQ and other courses [MERGED]

    This was literally my first question on this whole website, and it was for women.  My question got moved by the moderator. Now I have to deal with men who don't understand that women have legitimate concerns that can't be answered by a link that I have already looked into!  If you don't...

    Advice for women on BMQ and other courses [MERGED]

    I am not looking to see if I'm going to be treated poorly.  I already know that I will.  It's a fact of life for most women.  What I want to know is do the men who act in this way get called out for it, and more especially by other men.  Or is it expected that the woman must stand up for herself...

    The Canadian Peacekeeping Myth (Merged Topics)

    That is literally the best article to highlight the potential of peacekeeping missions, and also it's major issues that can be worked on.  By empowering those mission groups to be autonomous in their decisions would have probably saved these people...however that is also how certain military...
