When you are ready to voice your opinion, use the Add Argument button to create an argument.
If you would like to address an existing argument, use the Support and Dispute link within that argument to create a new reply.
No one in their right mind would make such an assumption. Everyone is different on an individual basis. We are discussing statistics and generalizing people into groups, for the sake of argument. You need to understand the difference between speaking of people as individuals or groups. I know plenty of black men that are better human beings than many white women I know, but that is my subjective experience. I am here to talk about the big things, like statistics, not my subjective opinions of individuals.
Very impressive. I actually never thought I would hear such rationality coming from you but there it is. Well then, I look forward to any future debates that you will/might create.
There are quite a few Variables in that assumption. However, the individuals would attack(more or less) other parts of the group that they are considered to be a part of if they disagree with each other, no? Just because you classify people together doesnt make them all the same, but those who are similar or the same will group together naturally when given the chance. That is human nature. Therefore, you are allowed to treat those groups formed after the initial movement as similar because they themselves chose to group on their own. They chose to be associated with one another. So yes, you can group them because they eliminate the variables naturally.
if you agree with this then basically you believe that men should be more powerful than women.(seeing as when women were poor they retorted to prostitution instead of a life of crime).
Clarifying rather than disputing because I support the Yes side, but have to dispute this particular point.
There have been women who resorted to a life of crime, and there have been men who resorted to prostitution.
The imbalance, I think, has more to do with supply and demand. While all individuals are different, culture is a factor as well; there is simply a larger supply of males for no-strings-sex than females, and greater demand for no-strings-sex with females than there is with males. A society of a given size can therefore support significantly more female prostitutes than male ones.
I am guy. And if i choose the people that i would fight, it would be the smaller people than the bigger people. Because smaller people in comparision to me are weaker. (not weak thought).
I don't fight people but if i was a bully, i will love to fight weak people because it makes me feel more masculine.
God bestowed masculinity on man. It was a gift from God. And i think that it is masculinity that gives men this "right" to harm others. Masculinity gives men the "right" to do anything in HIS WILL and not others.
That is why most woman do not peform crimes because they are not masculine.
The male population is larger than the female population so yes, males are responsible for more crimes than the females. There is even evidence which proves this. Men are more agressive whilst women try to fullfill the typical female role in many instances. Those women who act in a violent manner are usually the ones who makes up a small portion of the female population that is incarcerated or were arrested because of personal issuses of conflict.
I am trying to see if I can come up with a debate idea that will NOT generate arguments. This has to be it. Not even a dullard would argue that men are not the more criminal of the sexes...surely.
I find it funny that after 3 hours since this post, not one person has denied that men are more criminal than women. Yet, when I posted the same statement about African Americans it caused an uproar. I wonder why that is? Why can people see one point, but not the other? The statistics are there to prove both statements are true, but people accept one statement (Men are more responsible for crime than women) as self-evident whereas they are willing to argue with the statistics concerning black crime. You people baffle me. Could it be that multiculturaist propaganda has successfully brainwashed you into being blind to certain realities?
i agree completely with you, everyone thinks that if you mention race in anything other that how to support them, your some sort of puts on a red neck accent burr drinkin tibakee chewin, cross burnin jew killin redneck! oh and yes, men do commit more crime than women do, deal with it
Directly responsible maybe, but women wreak your head so much that GBH for the next asshole that walks past is seriously relieving. As they say, behind every good man is a women, driving him to deeper depths of insanity.
If you agree with the statement in the debate heading, your argument should be on the other side of the page. This side of the page is for those that disagree. Apparently, you agree, but just want to make excuses and bitch about your failure to charm the female sex. You are actually in agreement with the statement in the topic heading, whine on that side of the page.
I wasn't whining, merely taking the piss. What I was saying, if you had even a modicum of a sense of humor, was that the women are ultimately responsible for a great deal of crime. Being that you know nothing about me, I'd refrain from making harsh judgments about my success with women. I'm happily married with two kids, I would regard that as not lacking in ability to charm women.
I would however assume from your lack of knowledge in what a relationship can do to ones head, that you have very little experience with women whatsoever.
I also falsely assumed from the farcical nature of the debate that you were up for a laugh, and from the tag line that came with it that you could'nt forsee an arguement, yet beligerently started one on grounds of complete ignorance.
Overcompensation. It's completely possible this idea only occurred to you :) Considering your last post revolved around women being raped, and the following post contained a half-naked photo of Miley Cyrus I suspect you're lonely and think you can gain companionship by posting this drivel. Be warned, not every female on the internet is actually a female. Happy hunting.
Apparently, you agree, but just want to make excuses and bitch about your failure to charm the female sex.
Why would girls drive one insane if one spent almost no time with them? Surely if the gentleman you are disputing was single, he would not be irritated by women so often. Conversely, if he is in a relationship with a female, it stands to reason that he will on occasion have disagreements with her. Perhaps one day when you grow up, you will begin to comprehend.
I am curious as to why you mentioned this at all really, as there abounds a plethora of utterances of yours which indicate that you experience difficulty in charming anybody. Employment of puerile language, the display most primitive cognitive functions and the disregard for the opinions of persons whose insight into all matters are far in excess of your own are all your wont.
While I am fully sensible of your perversity and entertain no hope of your learning from this review, I am compelled to possess you of my rapidly souring opinion of you.
Good luck getting a woman to take you seriously when you think you are from the 19th century, dork. I read the silly prose you wrote to zombee and it was hilarious. You're a tool, is that puerile enough for you, you dainty, pompous bitch of a man? Go scrub your knickers and powder your wig or something, 19th century queers shouldn't use the internet. LOL!

Ah yes, I am disrespected because I am intelligent and civilized. Whereas you are the epitome of manliness; intolerant, bigoted and childish. Note the ironic tone which pervades this text.

Zombee is a beautiful and intelligent woman and I could not bear to invade her time with anything less than a faithful and accurate account of my opinion. The true extent and magnitude of which could not be conveyed in terms as primitive as those to which you adhere with remarkable alacrity and profound obstinacy.
You're a tool, is that puerile enough for you, you dainty, pompous bitch of a man?
Mark your own words, you insect. Can you reflect on your ideas and thoughts and actions with pride and without shame? Do you ever replay what you have said and thought and felt and wonder if they would better suit the basest and most vulgar of beasts, rather than this semblance of a human which has thus presented itself so horribly? This horror, twisted and vile, which proclaims itself to be a man? Do you think yourself worthy of the title; Man?
That weak supposal which you cast upon us cannot be repaid with love and kindness. Nay, it shall be and has been reflected and magnified. You are a villain and you have earned the loathing of nigh everybody here. Would that you were stricken from our midst and expelled into the inky black you have constructed to shield yourself from the truth. That truth is mirrored in the sentiments of which I have above possessed you:
You are not a man. You are a ghoul,
Go scrub your knickers and powder your wig or something, 19th century queers shouldn't use the internet.
Ridiculous logic. If everybody from the 19th century was homosexual, we would not be having this dispute. Furthermore I cannot be a homosexual, though I feel no obligation to possess you of those feelings with which I am blessed which would serve also to shatter your baseless accusation.

Hate to break this to you, Little Lord Fartlaroy, but I'm a troll. The demeanor of Mary Poppins is not befitting a proper troll.

Sounds like you need advice on how to interact with women. One of my favorite techniques is sneaking up behind them and clubbing them unconcious. They are easier to drag back to the cave that way.

I prefer "dude". It has a certain groovyness to it.

I am sure you are a real stud-muffin, but how do you keep from boring them to sleep before you disrobe and reveal your impeccable physique?

Women frequently compliment me on my exceptional knowledge and natural authority. Men are drawn to my candor and intelligence.
Unfortunately for you, you must rely on personality traits that are common in order to attract your preferred gender. This means you hardly give a lasting impression to the people who meet you, and so you act out in order to draw some fleeting attention.
I feel very sorry for people like you, but without your type to make up the majority, exceptional people couldn't exist.
Most men behave certain ways to attract the opposite sex. Alot of women prefer bad boys or un savory over nice well mannered wimps. SO i would argue women indirectly are responsible for more crime than men.
you can not claim that a gender is more inclined to crime than the other. There are criminals of both genders, as there are peace speakers of both genders. Martin luthor king,for example, was a guy, and he preached for a world with peace between all races.
Most male crime is in dedication to women, be it the male proving his masculinity or providing for his family, this wouldn't happen without female pressure.
Ah, so the solution is to get rid of women! Personally, I've never actively motivated any guy to prove his masculinity to me by committing a crime. And then there's the case of domestic abuse and rape. Are you saying that the wife of an abusive husband has somehow done something to deserve getting beat up?
Actually there are about the same number of crimes for both, but men's crimes are more serious. Technically there are an equal amount of men and women in prison...
I haven't actually read any statistics but I am just going to shoot my mouth off and say no way in hell! That just isn't true at all in the United States.
