One for the ladies

I'm glad there are at least a few voices of reason on this thread! heh

To those who implied that women are always emotional and men are logical... Um, from my perspective, that's not the case at all. The people I know who are gung-ho about the wars, passionately hate Ron Paul, and can't debate these topics in even a remotely civil, calm way are.... Yep, men. In fact, I can think of lots of guys who are emotional when it comes to politics and other controversial topics.

So yeah, I agree with whoever it was that said that BOTH genders are emotional, and both can be logical.

As for me, I'm an INTP. So I'm a thinker, but I think I had a good balance between thinker and feeler. But what I think is very important is intuition. An intuitive person is not going to vote for a crook, because he's handsome or just because of the (D) or (R) by their name.

You're right. The people that passionately hate Ron Paul ARE men for the most part. I never really thought about it.

Here's an idea, fellas: let's listen to what women have to say when we're talking to them, instead of telling them what we think they'd like to hear.

That's a wonderful idea! So on that note, Women do they have to say about spreading Ron Paul's message? What do you remember that changed your mind?

 

[Narmical]

This thread is retarded.

Men and women both appeal to the emotion, how a candidate makes you feel. Humans, especially men, like to think of themselves as logical, rational creatures, but we're not. Hell, Paul's whole philosophy has to do with emotion more than cold, hard facts. Austrian economics is based on theory:



People make decisions based on how we feel about things. Go read The Social Animal by David Brooks or watch this interview and shut the hell up.

And Narmical (that's me) argues that mainstream economics can never design a scientific experiment. Looking at gathered economic data about a country or the world at best can get you to a hypothesis. You cannot conduct an experiment on a country, you just cant control the variables. You want actual scientific experiments that test economics, try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavioral_economics

Also fun fact, Math is not scientific, does that make it bad? Math is built up from first principals with many of them being just assumptions. Even worse the foundation of "Normal" geometry is based on the assumption that for a given line there is one and only one line parallel to it. (Euclid's Parallel Postulate). Mathematicians have actually proved that this assumption is unproveable!

Sounds a lot like Praxiology don't it?

Newt is 68(will be 69 by the election) and an overweight walking heart attack. If Rons health/age is brought up Newts should be aswell.

Newt sounded out of breath during some of his answers a few debates ago.

Look at how much the presidency aged Obama in three years. I don't know if Newt could survive a term.

Ron Paul was and still is a stud!

But it has nothing to do with why I'm voting for him

Poor guy has good reason to be out of breath.
Thinking up lies quickly takes a lot of energy.

Newt is not attractive at all, in any way, to any woman I know.

What girl isn't attracted to this?

 

[JimInNY]

Every being with a penis automatically understand logical arguments about economics and government?

I resemble that remark.

Wanna draw in the female voters?? Someone needs to make an awesome video, with video clips of those soldiers surprising their kids in random places by showing up from active duty. pictures and video clips... I'm fairly certain no matter how any woman feels about the war, or soldiers these clips bring tears to their eyes. Add in quotes from RP about bringing the troops home/ending the wars. Make it viral... voila, female vote achieved.

very smart.

I am INFP but easily fit INTP as well. I just wanted to agree, if a person is in tune with his/her intuition then Paul is the only choice. That's part of what gets me watching women vote for Newt (or others but especially Newt). I know this needs its own thread in OT but to think of so many who are cut off from that part of themselves boggles my mind. Talk about a fuzzy channel and it's really no wonder they were booing the golden rule and killing. I was mad at first but as I thought about it I found it to be profoundly sad.

The way men override their seemingly genetic gravitation to BIG FAKE BOOBS & LIPO-SUCTIONED THIGHS & COLLAGEN'ED LIPS & REVEALING CLOTHES, instead using logic to pursue & partner with women who have plain faces, chubby bodies, modest wardrobes, fine minds & stellar characters?

Yes exactly.
