    My point, was that NJPaint's comparison was nonsense. That the comparison of the two different situations is stupid. Yes, the tests were biased and unfair and that's what makes them different from the tests Rooster was talkinga bout. In fact it was the implicit unfairness of the tests that were administered to blacks that invalidates NJPaint's point.
    I disagree. The studies Rooster mentions may be just as invalid, even though they use updated technology. Who were the test subjects, and how was the test conducted? It's entirely possible that the phenomena of women being more emotional than men is tied to a particular type of stimuli, or to a socio-cultural group. In any case, I don't think it's a universal truth. I know some pretty stone-cold logical women, and some very emotional men. Most men have strong emotions, though we are socialised not to show them.

    Anyway, since NJPaint isn't stepping in to defend/support his own position, I'm going to shut up now.

      Yeah, and I know a kid bown to black parents that has lighter skin then me. Does that mean whites are darker then blacks? Of course not, when dealing with any sizable population we can only deal in generalities.

      And I don't know that every test is perfectly unbiased. However, I do know that both sides of the issue are conducting their own tests which provides a reasonable basis for comparison. the feminists will say one thing, the other side (what do you call them I wonder?) will say the opposite and the truth is in there somewhere. The same cannot be said for NJPaint's errnoeous example which you so incorrectly defend.
      Or better yet, why don't you kill yourself. No, really, die. Drop dead, don't leave a note, in fact burn your house while your little ego is stuck in a bench vice so that you'll also incenerate yourslef and everything you own with it. Because that's all you're worth. You're not even wirh thte time it'll take for the house to burn down, so just kill yourself. You're a waste of space. You are nothing, you always will be nothing. Don't leave a note, you're not worth the ink. - Tyger

          Frankly, yes, it would be.

            Ah the good news is the trial is in Colorado so LA wouldn't be missed. Wait, the entire porn industry would be wiped out.
