December 21, 2011 7:08 pm @flapjaxx: We can thank the "feminoids"(or feminists, if you prefer) for the anti-male sentiment in todays western culture (IMO).

December 19, 2011 12:32 pm @KenOchalek: For the record I'm not "pro-creepy", I'm just a "realist". "I stand by my first comment. A comics fan is a comics fan, regardless of gender/appearance." I agree. "Whether you’re socially awkward or not, just try to treat everyone with respect. Even if you think they don’t deserve it. Hell, ESPECIALLY if you think they don’t deserve it." ... and agree. @Nerd_Raaage "You know, labeling someone, or their post, as “pro-creepy” isn’t really being respectful." I agree. That's my fastest post ever. :)

December 18, 2011 8:14 pm @KenOchalek: Really, being stared at "is pretty damned creepy", that's kinda funny, because in order to detect a stare, one would have to focus in on the person staring (doesn't that constitute a stare). If someone wasn't expecting to be stared at, would they be actively scanning a crowd looking to make eye contact with a "starer". You assume an awful lot in your monologue "...the starer refuses to interact in a socially acceptable manner." Are you talking about an individual that you are familiar with (are you familiar with the intentions of "starers", lol)?. "I’m kind of surprised I have to explain that point.", I am too, it wasn't necessary. "And you’re right — when you put yourself out there, you can’t control how others react." I acknoweldege your agreement. ;) "And maybe it IS naive on the part of the provocateur, but naïveté does not grant anyone a license to behave badly." Let's assume that someone who is not fully developed socially, emotionaly or sexually might be unable to accuratley gauge his or her(I know that women and men are both just as guilty when it comes to staring) own behaviour. It's obvious that some people are better at controling thier natural instincts than others are. Should we vilify those people, or be tolerant of them? "And I’m sorry, but I’m not answering your question." I respect that. One alternative for a woman that doens't like the attention she's recieving due to her wardrobe choice...try a burqa and niqab combo. LOL. ;)

December 17, 2011 1:54 pm @MisterShaw I agree with you. I just looked at the article, and found it kinda funny. I'm getting a little over-weight myself, and I wouldn't subject myself or anyone with good eyesight to me in tights. LOL. Man, too many people on this site are over-sensitive "internet alarmists". ;)

December 17, 2011 1:40 pm I meant...live in a society made up of many individuals...

December 17, 2011 1:38 pm @KenOchalek, How does being stared at make someone a victim? Dressing in a provocative manner (imo), is done to provoke or attract attention. Being that we like in a society made up of many individuals, the provocateur doesn't get to choose who's attention is drawn to them, to asume that they can is somewhat imature and unwise. I'd like to pose a question to you. If humans were born without eyes, how would women dress? "it does NOT follow that ALL women who dress in those styles are looking for that attention". Sounds a bit naive on her part, and easily remedied (if she has any common sense).

December 6, 2011 3:12 pm @Blargo I think being retired in comics has as much longevity as a "dead" character. It's not always that long before either resurfaces, IMO.

December 6, 2011 1:16 pm I haven't enjoyed any Marvel event half as much as I enjoyed Civil War. I agree, bring back some outside talent (Millar would be cool) to write the next Marvel event. With so many "architects" working in the "House of Ideas" these days, I don't think it's safe to live in. :)

December 6, 2011 1:10 pm I don't know how it work either, but I can imagine how it might taste (or in this case, read) ;)
