Well news agencies need to show stupid **** , just as much as stupid **** wants to be on the news, so in reality she could face problems from her boss on not doing her job, regardless if she is in her right or not - you know how bosses can be.
Anyway that was just a dumb comment, I never expected a ********* to erupt over it or to get a million thumbs, whatthehell, funnyjunk?

elcreepo (12/23/2015) [-] If she's the HOST, however, she won't get in trouble.
And this is an interview, not a guy yelling insults about women from atop a rooftower. The news doesn't need to report on the guy's attitude towards women, nobody cares.
And most first world news agencies would side with her on not allowing him to be an ass to her, without resorting to calling him such. But I can see your point too as being possible.

Tits=manners, gtfo=conversation is over.

draylon (12/23/2015) [-] Except by saying what she does; how she does, she is proving she has no respect left for him either.
All it is, is her basically saying " **** You." In a more "acceptable" words.
By the end they do have mutual respect for each other, even if that mutual level is 0.

draylon (12/23/2015) [-] In my mind at least; People don't change because you ask, nor suddenly respect you if you ask. Especiially when it comes to religious beliefs (which is where i assume his opinion comes from
so the first of the 2 option is literally just words that are said to be said, only used as a defense or to gain sympathy.
Which leaves only the 2nd as the real meaning.
You can tell she is visibly upset (understandable), and also has that, "I'm done with this." look. Which leads me to believe that she wouldn't really be interested in the conversation even in the event of spontaneous respect.
At least, that is how I see it.
(Not Going to Happen) or X
is the same as X so i take that as the intended meaning.

ohemgeezus ONLINE (12/23/2015) [-] Just because it's improbable that he would show her respect, and maybe even apologize, doesn't mean it's impossible. She may have had an annoyed look on her face, but that's only because she was annoyed. If she really wanted to end it, she would have, likely by saying, "well thank you for your time, bye bye".

draylon (12/23/2015) [-] Except that if she said that, she would just stay angry, being a normal person she would want to vent. By saying what she did, she is also venting, because it also carries the meaning of, "As you are, you aren't worthy of MY time."
All i see here is a normal woman, lashing back after an insult.

draylon (12/23/2015) [-] Aside from the people purely hopping on to bash my comments with generic criticism or commentaries in order to get thumbs.
I did respond to the guy who actually seemed to want to actually have a discussion. I held a conversation and expressed my thoughts. The only thing that i can see that I didnt Acknowledge is The fact that yes, there is a very tiny possibility something bizarre can happen and he might "gain respect" towards her. But as I said, I View it as a tiny tiny near impossible chance.
In fact I view this "conversation" with you as most likely nothing more than an attempt to gain thumbs and a response from me to get new posts, seeing as you have done nothing but insult me and made generic comments.
Anyone else want to jump on the bandwagon for some free thumbs?
Unless You actually have something constructive to add, I wont be responding.

lathyrusvii (12/23/2015) [-] Yeah, sure, let me hop on this train.
You said 'in my mind at least,' which speaks only to yourself, and not what actually might happen. You're precluding reality from happening by stating that your perception takes precedence.
So the first of the two options actually is a fairly valid thing, despite what you think. People who assert that they are to be respected as equals generally get that respect, deserved or not. Asides, though, speaking an ultimatum isn't asking.
The second argument, that her face held a look of 'I'm done with this,' which led you to believe that she wouldn't really be interested in the conversation in the event of mutual respect, is... what? She showed, clearly, that she wasn't kidding about her stance. At that point, she was done with the conversation, unless he complied and stopped ******** about.
Your initial argument that she was kindly saying ' **** you' isn't valid either. It was one of the two options she presented, but like ohemgeezus >>#33 was saying, it was a choice. Which is... what an ultimatum is.
Not understanding that point is why alarubra got thumbs for >>#65. It seems that people do actually understand your thought process, but see it as flawed.
Anyway, that's my two cents. Read or disregard; I had fun, either way.

theattackmaster (12/27/2015) [-] you're not in much of a position to talk there my friend, considering you added nothing to our conversation about subjectiveness, and reading through this, any rational thinking human could easily deduce that he was right, and that you were wrong, but hey, I guess understanding basic concepts isn't for everyone.

iamthetoaster (12/23/2015) [-] that man's own opinions may not change on the spot, but if he still goes through the act of choosing to be respectfull and choosing to /show/ respect during the interview, that still counts for something.

anon (12/23/2015) [-]
That's not inferring that in the slightest. If she truly didn't have any respect for him, she would've done something absolutely petty like drive some zany insult after cutting the interview, which she didn't. She demanded a level platform for discussion, and when he didn't provide the effort for one, she simply "walked away" as best as she could as a televised anchor.

anon (12/23/2015) [-]
Are you serious, are you saying that asking to see tits is the same as asking the human you are having a conversation with tp respect you? I really don't get why you get thumbed up so much. Asking to be respected is not the same as asking to see the other person's body part, she didn't ask him to show her his abs, or ass or any other sexualized body part. And men wants to be respected as well, as they should. If a man were interviewing a feminazi who kept insulting him, he wouldn't say tits or gtfo, he would (and should) tell her that she should stop insulting him or the interview is over. It's about respect, and not about women who have no power over the internet.

nice exact copy of the top comment on the imgur post m8, also no one gets the context here.
"He wasn't referring to her being a woman and he was upset she was trying to direct the interview and started rambling. He was just mad that she was "controlling" the interview and simply started to rant about it and was cut off." - comments from imgur

first: people should watch the clip instead of judging immediately. we dont know from this short clip what he was going to say "a woman who..." she could have done something bad or whatever, so lets be fair and listen to both sides first.
second, after watching the clip... he's a cunt and she was right.

No, I was thinking of hijabs. But >>#120 explained it well, differing standards of modesty.
#120 to #109
-
Gandalfthewhite (12/23/2015) [-] The general idea is that it preserved your modesty. So some cover their hair completely while others use it like an old lady scarf. Modesty is kind of up to your opinion hence why some cover everything but their eyes

anon (12/23/2015) [-]
The origins of the hijab are the same as the headscarves in Catholicism and Judaism, namely back in ye olde times people were dirty ***** with lice and fleas and **** . Women didn't want to catch them and people didn't want them to spread. So women had to wear a headscarf in crowds, ie when praying with a bunch of other people, to stop the spread.
Then people started taking baths and lice and fleas became very rare, but some ******** thought "Tradition needs to stay! It's important!" and so came up with other excuses for women to wear it. It's completely outdated health and safety ******** , with no bases in any actual religion, but dumb ***** keep screaming about how they need it.

you are a woman who... what? a woman whose known to lie or exaggerate the truth to huge extents? if that's the case then she's just being a cunt. If he was pointing out her past grievances that's totally fair game for him not to respect her. If he was just going to say something like 'you are a woman who think's she's as smart a man' however then yeah **** him.
Sorry OP but from the information shown I don't think we can decide whether we want more women like this or not.

schneidend (12/23/2015) [-] The guy literally says it's "beneath me to be interviewed by you." Unless he was going to say something like "you are a woman who is a serial killer" or "you are a woman who molests little boys," he's probably not about to say something that actually means she's beneath him.
#55 to #54

amuzen (12/23/2015) [-]
I guess because I didn't see one. All I got from this post was people commending her for her zinger but it's a ****** zinger because the entire thing runs off not letting him finish his sentence and letting people interpret what he was saying by the middle of his sentence taken out of context.

amuzen (12/23/2015) [-]
That's entirely possible and if that was the case then she should've let him finish then said that same thing and it would've been very powerful. As it stands she interrupted him mid sentence so there's no real way to tell whether he was going to make a good point or not though. Really it could've had NOTHING to do her being a woman at all and the 'your a woman who...' could've been leading into something a lot more personal than that.
For example he could've been saying 'your a woman who takes what people say out context to launch cheap attacks that appeal to ignorant masses' and we wouldn't know.

Ruspanic (12/23/2015) [-] First of all, "it is beneath me to be interviewed by you" is a ****** and arrogant thing to say to anyone, so that automatically implies he's an asshole.
Secondly, he actually was the asshole in this, if you watch the source video or look up who he is.
Basically, the reporter cut him off as he was going into a long historical spiel and told him to focus on the present because they only had a limited amount of time, and he immediately got all offended and went off on her. She was being perfectly respectful - much more respectful than the guy deserved, considering he's an Islamist scholar who supported the 9/11 attacks and is associated with several terrorist groups.

So, I stumbled back upon this. Figured I'd see how my comment (#52) was taken.
I was simply meaning to point out, that the content provided, does not give a fully rounded image of the situation and is just an emotional jerk off. Not unlike most journalism nowadays.
My point, was apparently missed. I'll try to be more clear in the future.
