RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017

The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.

If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.

To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.

I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.

I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.

I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.

I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.

Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.

Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

RationalWiki is a pretty dickish site in itself, but I think it describes AmazingAtheist pretty well, given that he actually ran a few scams as well.

I might watch some AA just for the f of it.

I think this post (lol tumblr) explains it pretty well:

Eh, sort of the same. I really don't like the term "feminism" anymore given that it's practically been shat on a lot.

why i dislike feminism

As many of us here have come to understand, women are NOT the equals of men and even if they had the same intellectual capacity as men (which is doubtful given the PC orientation and restrictions of modern research) the emotional nature of their brains leave them prone to logical fallacies and bouts of irrational and insane behavior.

As it has been said since time immemorial in some form or another "bitches be cray cray". Females have evolved differently than males not merely physically but mentally and in such a way that I believe is at odds with civilized society.

Traditional Patriarchal Societies have always shown themselves to be far more stable, sane, prosperous and happy than the barbarity and decadence of Matriarchal or Egalitarian Societies. Attempts to treat women as equals or reason with them through the use of logic and rational persuasion *alone* have always been at best fruitless, at worst confounding and unsettling both for the mind of the individual engaged in debate and for the stability of civilized society.

The affects of feminism and sexual egalitarianism on civilized society have been disastrous. Therefore I believe it is necessary for the sanity of men, the security of women, the well being of children, the integrity of the family unit and the order of civilized society that women are disciplined by men. I believe that the affects of sexual egalitarianism and feminism have been so destructive as to warrant women's exemption from civil rights in most forms.

Higher emotional intelligence is at the same time, a good thing. You make it to be a completely negative thing. Take note that empathy regardless is a very important skill to have. This probably helps explain why there are more male psychopaths, murderers, etc, because of less emotional intelligence among men (though it's important to remember that both rational thought and emotion can be built well over time). Using some reductio ad absurdum admittedly, a society completely dominated by rational thought over emotion could devolve badly itself.

Not to say emotion is better than rational thought. Being overemotional is very annoying to say the least....

I'm not sure whether "evolved" is the accurate term here as is "been taught". Though naturally women are more emotionally intelligent than men, it's important to note that even in 2014 the macho man stereotype is alive and well. I think surroundings, gender roles, social norms, etc have more to do with "bitches be cray cray" stereotype than actual evolution.

This is a huge statement. You're saying that, historically, a traditional patriarchal society is inherently the most stable because men think more rationally. However, as I say, this is a huge statement. There's no way to approve or disprove it, really, given that many other factors can destroy or aid a society. I can't disprove or prove this statement, simply because this is one hell of a statement. I'll leave it at that.

Why do you say that? I'm not sure how to interpret this, but it seems you're coming from a moral standpoint.

1. You want a return to the old "the woman stays at home" type of society, but remember you can only keep a population suppressed for so long. Women were speaking up about in the 1950s, and women in Saudi Arabia and Iran are fighting for their rights. Those countries have their host of problems, but for different reasons, and I won't get into that.

2. What specifically do you think has made society "disastrous" anyway? The collapse of the patriarch-dominated society? If so, that's not much of a loss given that history has shown us that society can, has, and will evolve in unexpected directions.

Just my 2 cents.

RE: why i dislike feminism

Men and women are shit. #AgenderAsexualMasterRace

Hello, traveler.

This is an ancient account I have not used in a long time. My views have changed much in the intervening months and years.

Nonetheless, I refuse to clean it up. Pretending that I've held my current views since the beginning of time is what we in the industry call a lie. Asking people to do so contributes to moralistic self-loathing. "See, those people have nothing damning! I do! I'm truly vile!"

Because you can never be a good person with a single blemish on the moral record, I thought that simply entertaining some thoughts made me irredeemable. Though I don't care for his writing style, William Faulkner presents a good counterexample. He went from being a typical Southern racist to supporting the civil rights movement. These days we'd yell at him for that, probably.

People are allowed to change their views.

Nevertheless, this period of my life has informed some of how I am today. In good ways and bad ways. To purge it would be to do a disservice to history. Perhaps it will not make anyone sympathetic, but it may help someone understand.

If, after reading all this, you still decide to use the post above as evidence that I am evil today, ask yourself if you have never disagreed with the moral code you now follow. In all likelihood you did, at some point. If some questions are verboten, and the answer is "how dare you ask that," don't expect your ideological opponents to ever change their minds.

Rational wiki... not very rational.

TAA is a mixed bag, some of it shit, some of it gold, but more gold than shit. I guess kinda like rational wiki, though I think rational wiki has more shit than gold.

RE: why i dislike feminism

Women have evolved differently. Saying otherwise would be ignoring science.

In the past it was typically the man's role to hunt for food and protect their tribes and what not. A woman took care of the children, made clothes, gathered berries and such.
So of course we evolved differently!! Men are better able to handle physical activities, it's true. Perhaps they do have more a bit more logical intelligence. I mean you can't exactly go bumbling in front of a giant fucking mammoth and not expect to be crushed. That shit takes problem solving!
Did you know that women see more colors than men? This is because we gathered foods from the land. Seeing the subtle difference in color was important for survival. Women were probably left back at the tribe to watch the children. We talked to the other women, we took care of the children. So we got a more emotional brain out of this? Big whoop.

But does this really mean we shouldn't treat everyone as equals? We're all humans, and if a woman wants to take on more of a "man's role" who the hell are you stop her?

Also humans are wildly adaptable and malleable. Most of these biological differences can be mitigated with different upbringings. Generally it is the physical aspects that are incredibly difficult to change more so than the mental aspects. Also everyone is different too.
