Hey, buddy, I don't need anyone here to tell me that I'm cute. I could get a six-foot Lubavitcher meshichist to give me a bear hug and a smooch right in the middle of the street. That's all the validation I need.

Here is a randomly generated BaronPhilip post:
I don't see anywhere in the other hand, think of directions in terms of the other hand, are driven to understand the sugya and write a peirush to help us out. How can you put him down like that?" Or: "What do you think they would still darshan that women were also capable of participating in serious learning and serious discussions. They only had to be raised by mothers who themselves are not only misrepresenting what I said but also making it clear that you are disagreeing with this garbage. It's not ludicious at all when the facts that I am doing is an ad hominem insult and irrelevent to the bottom of a certain hashkofoh. The same thing happens with Lubavitch. I must have said 1000 times that I have. This is the typical, convoluted apogetics left-wing MO people today are very nice and caring people. I repeatedly stress that I blamed the phenomenon I encountered on the other thread, someone expressed concern with a position of Rav Aharon Lichtenstein of Gush considers her views beyond the pale of Judaism that needs to be trained properly. And this project has been instructed to say that "nashim daatan kalos" is not going to have their own services with their own krias haTorah with female readers. This is a fanatical black-hat institution. This is not because "I always have to chat with you more to see what your views are. The fact that you do not suffer from having to be opposed to! The irony of it all!
I don't understand why only the frum system seems to produce so many fringe-left people. I repeatedly stress that I am wondering how politico understands the statement of our society is placing psychological block after psyhcological block in front of people who don't like discussing ideas. I never said anything even close to that. I suspect that you see are willing to let a stumbling block remain before these people. Not only is this problem of theirs annoying to many of the Torah that we all can see that others here--both male and female--have the same reason they like tinkering with things from the Conservative Jewish Theological Seminary of America. No more "freely" than your own position.
Let's be civil here. I'd have to put up with the best influences. But, of course, you believe that too many of the reasons women are discouraged from learning gemara in most sectors of the students and rebbeim think that people on a frum discussion site--of which there are so few!--should have to remember that discussions among adult men are generally about judging ideas and almost never about morally judging individuals. If you believe that too many of us, but we all know that the burning of sheitels in Boro Park was offensive to people from India. I suspect that you are going to have been making. I can't imagine that you do not believe that too many of the culture of political correctness dulls the minds and places obstacles before intelligent discussion. I see that the discussion is really about. And that's why I am consciously interested in something other than the pursuit of truth, something I never said anything even close to that. I suspect that you will employ hackneyed political rhetoric to discredit and squelch any discussion of ideas. It seems as if you're offended because my words seemed to learn by absorbing data from their surroundings into abstract, impersonal, "scientific" ideas about human nature, then it inexorably follows that this perception is correct. Although I lay the blame on the head. So too society must strive to train females to be lustful, lacking in empathy, and sometimes even physically violent. But you know what we do? We are aware of these pitfalls and we love the discussion.
All I'm saying is that we have to be able to envision abstract spatial arragements, especially like maps. When men travel, they kind of envision a map in their heads, like a satelite view of the possible strong points and weak points of each sex. And that is going on is that we have to remember that discussions among serious adults are rarely ever about "bashing" this or that person or community. This concerns me, and not swinging from trees in a recent Jewish Week op-ed piece that we have to chat with you more to see what your views on women in this book that she would agree with. Note that only a few years ago saying that Chazal's view about kiddushin (that a man "acquires" a woman) was based on moral backwardsness and a primitive understanding of the culture of political correctness dulls the minds and places obstacles before intelligent discussion. I see you weren't paying any attention whatsoever to what the discussion mistakening thinking that Rav Shteinman is maligned, where Satmars are thought to be freed from such stupidities when they are very annoying. I move in both the frum and the policemen involved were acquited, an assistant rabbi in his synagogue gave a long speech before Mussar one Shabbos about the relative correctness or incorrectness of a certain undesirable trait is more common among females than male.
And I see that others here--both male and female toddlers--even those as young as two years old--behave very differently and according to two specific gender-related patterns when they are in the mud, politico, you should be beneath you is reacting this emotionally and making this personal. None of those general statements speak to the theoretical legal debates. In sharp and stark contrast, girls in our community are unaccustomed to the positions I refer to as apikorsus. In other words, I only "bandy around freely" the term apikorsus because I'm a writer, he once asked me to have been championing on another thread. Yes, of course. But there are so few!--should have to put up with this garbage. It's not just because the political culture of our Sages that "Nashim Da'atan Kalos", a rule that is going on is that you are happy about what is being taught to ask their husband/rabbi if they don't know something; they are in the Torah that we ought to abandon the old rules about avodah zarah because they are in the middle to Bnei Brak to even Satmar on the ground support the contention. The fact that you will employ hackneyed political rhetoric to discredit and squelch any discussion of the time.
Why do you mean you have such a problem with this simple deduction may be because the political culture of their times. Hegel was all the while thinking in terms of the girls in some strictly Orthodox circles. Tell that to little children--both boys and girls--who suffer from the time of childhood: Men are driven to understand everything around them. Women, on the other hand, think of directions in terms of distance and north, south, east, and west. Women, on the thread, in addition to also being offensive, childish, annoying, inappropriate "mommy" behavior. I take issue with views other posters present on this site. Several males AND females have agreed with me that this was apikorsus, a fulfillment of the fully commited Orthodox Jewish community, the vast, vast majority of the Rambam's position. Saying that the next time they are travelling in, all the YU semicha student and acquaintance of mine, Eliyahu Stern, has argued in a civilized community is all about. And I recall some years ago a Gush graduate wrote an article in Hamevaser saying that Yitzchak Avinu might have been just the product of their times.
Despite my constant hammering of this point, I get regularly accused of "sinas chinam" by certain hysterical posters who can't seem to be successful. I've had many brilliant female teachers over the years, including a number of female misunderstanding of male discourse. And that saddens me. I don't mean to single you out, but I've noticed that a lot of frum girls cannot think straight and debate serious issues.
