    Redo 2nd grade English. Even my 8yo daughter can understand his post. Then again I’m pretty sure she’s smarter than 99percent of the conservatives. It’s a fact that those people lack critical thinking skills. It’s nature.

    He never said he would reject a female member from joining this website

    You came up with that on your own - in your head - because assumption is how you reason

    Assumption is the lowest level of reasoning

    With you being an adult male with the same political views as the average high school girl, I expect nothing more

    he said he preferred if there were very few women on the board, to which I responded what does a woman have to do with having a proper trading discussion.

    and then he made some comment about me saying there should be more women in trading.

    So where was the assumption on my side? I can see where it was on your side.

    Right here

    He didn’t say he would reject them, only that he would prefer to not have them on this website

    Prefer to not have is the same as rejecting when he doesn’t have the power to actually kick some one out. But I will accept this interpretation.

    It doesn’t change my response:
    why would the gender have anything to do with anything on an online trading forum?
    Why is he bringing up some straw man about the liberals wanting higher numbers of women traders?

    so what’s the answer to my original response?

    I don't need an English degree to interpret what is meant when someone states they prefer women not to be a part of Elitetrader.com is the exact same as rejecting women considering he also tagged it with a political agenda in other messages in this thread.
    • It's also the same as saying that women have no place in discussing trading / investing topics at a forum in which a majority of the members are men.
    It's that southern mentality that women expression is a threat to the traditions they grew up with in the south. I can see these dicks a mile away via my experience living in Kentucky and stationed at military bases in the south along with the fact I grew up in a military family that spent a lot of time in the south.

    These are men that are threaten by another group of people that's not going to take their shit when these men feel like bringing in the off-topic discussions in the trading threads.

  7. What I meant was the mainstream media. I was replying to the video.

    You know the video is a joke on 1950’s thinking and 1950’s era educational videos, right?

    You still haven’t answered my questions.

    for now, it seems that you all are either triggered because of your insecurities as men or as financial traders and you play identity politics to compensate for that insecurity.

    But maybe I’m wrong. I haven’t heard a rational response to my questions.

  9. I didn't say that someone made a statement about the lack of female traders. I said that female members will likely make that a topic at some point.

    Again, you created a strawman argument. Your male-feminist, libtard bullshit might work with others but it's not gonna work here. I have nothing more to say to you.

    You are saying a hypothetical someone will hypothetically say something and you are refuting that hypothetical persons hypothetical statement. That is LITERALLY the definition of a straw man argument.

    Again my open arguments in this whole thread is
    1. Where is the proof that men are better traders than women (a claim made by many posters)?
    2. Why would you not want women on here talking about trading?

    It’s pretty easy to answer #2: it’s your opinion, so you should be able to justify it.
    It should be easy to answer #1: it’s nature after all.

    So far your emotional fragility and your lack of logical arguments shows that you are the proverbial woman that most of the posters are railing against.
