Well since we’ve now devolved into value statements on this thread I’d say it represents a segment of the culture who in all likliehood have an easier time of it having a relationship over a computer or iPhone screen as compared to the real social interaction deal - at least on a quality level built around mutual respect. In other words, at the very least these guys ain’t getting laid without money or a blow up doll being involved.

ET has some great archives of old posts from 10 years ago that I enjoy going through more than the current threads/posts. So thank you for sponsoring that!
Woman are different to men, some ways better some worse, much fewer traders but the 1s that do are generally better than men from experience.
ET is a melting pot. It is a meeting place for trades from all over the world. These traders come from all sorts of backgrounds, experiences, age, level of education, and intelligence. Some of them are master traders that have been trading for decades, others are beginners. However, they all have one thing in common and that is the love of trading.
We all come here to learn from each other, share experiences and have fun. It is ok to crack a joke and tease one another; In other words, all of us do not have to adhere to the same hypocrite mentality!
Therefore, if you cannot take a joke, and live and let live, then you know what to do with that thing!

I totally agree with you and if I may add that women are physically more powerful than men, because they are the only species on the plant that can bleed for a week and do not die!
Now that is a fact!
lol
A study of estrus would agree with you. It is what makes the world go round. A lot of clarity in the behavior between men and women can come from understanding heat cycles and tumescence.
There are exceptions, but generally males respond to females.
edit: In general, women can withstand more pain. Simply because they are more practiced at it. For women, emotional pain is as real as physical pain. It can be argued that men feel emotional pain as well. Men do but not to the extent that you have lived your entire life as a second-class citizen not based on merit but because the dominant culture has promoted it.
In physiology, women can experience more pleasure. Simply because they have way more nerve endings in the organ that differentiates during gestation.
Any man who has not explored these issues is un-aware of the extent of their born into privilege. These men gaslight women simply because they think that women are f*cked up men.

This entirely kindly intentioned thread confounded me a little: I didn't know how (or even whether) it was appropriate to reply.
Many thanks to the posters of the kind comments above.
Regarding all the unkind comments (by no means limited to this thread), although I don't usually dignify such nonsense with any response at all, I will this time: it's beyond ridiculous that a small handful of people very repeatedly accuse me, in thread after thread after thread, of being NoDoji, a TopStepTrader employee, one of the daughters of Al Brooks, Al Brooks himself, or even a man called "Alex".
It's pure trolling - and ironic, too: anonymous internet personas themselves, so repeatedly alleging (or just stating, as if it were simply factual) that I'm deliberately deceiving people here about my identity.
It's relentless, it's unwarranted, it's untruthful, it's entirely unprovoked, and it's downright malicious, too: these comments are designed solely to impugn my integrity in public. Clearly they serve no other purpose at all. That's just plain nasty.
I've done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to deserve, to invite or to justify these endless accusations of deception.
There's no reason, by any normal standards of decency, why anyone should continue indefinitely to tolerate such persistent, unprovoked malice.
Having Asperger's syndrome myself, I'm admittedly really bad at trying to envisage other people's potential reactions, but I imagine (and am assured by many people here) that almost everyone would eventually feel exactly the same way, when so continually falsely accused of lying and deceiving people, wouldn't they?
Together with the moderators' express refusal to do anything about this so-persistent, malicious trolling - which would be so easy to remedy - the whole thing, naturally enough, alienates me from posting here.
It's not just about me, obviously (which is why it was worth mentioning at all, for once): there's a much broader, much more significant issue here. At a time when both trading and trading-forum participation generally are seeing such an increase, this forum clearly has a serious member retention problem. No surprise there: it's glaringly obvious which very small group of persistently hostile members the moderation policies choose to retain and protect, at the expense of inexorably losing a far larger turnover of other contributors. That's how ET is run, and clearly there's nothing that I or any other individual member can do about it but choose to stop posting here - as, indeed, so many do.
The forum is knowingly harbouring and protecting malicious trolls while effectively driving away their victims.
In my opinion that's a real problem, and apparently it's one that nobody's willing even to try to deal with.

I propose the trolls go there. They will feel themselves very good in their natural habitat.
