but that's not how it worksIf women want female referees for women’s sports, I see no issue with men wanting male referees for men’s sports.
The way you've put it, it sounds like you don't have issue with men wanting male referees for men's sports ONLY if women want female referees for women sports, otherwise you'll not agree to men wanting male referees in men's sports
Please correct me if I've interpreted this wrong, but at the moment that's how it sounds to me. And it's not cool. What would be cool (and normal) is for everyone to have their own preferences, irrespective of what others think, or want. Of course, as long as their preferences don't harm, or impede on everyone else's preferences, freedoms, rights, etc...
And what I said in that BHW post that got me cautioned was simply my opinion, I didn't force anyone to agree with me, or threatened to take measures against others who don't think like me, or who don't like what I like.
I merely stated that "I didn't watch the game because there was a female referee in that game and I didn't like it". That's all I said, and it triggered the mod who warned me
I've watched women's sports too... well, football mostly since that's the sport that I used to care about the most. I did watch a lot of women football some 15-20 years ago, and I did enjoy it. I think I've watched women football for 5-6 years straight before I finally gave up and moved to something else. And even back then, I found it fascinating to watch female referees in a woman's game, I've never had any issues with that. But back then people were still more normal and understanding than today. Today's society is infested by a lot of things, ideologies and the AI being the 2 most prevalent and nefarious ones from what I'm seeing...I’m a woman and I sometimes watch women’s sports.
oh yeah, I'd not want this eitherI’ve got the same opinion as you, but with male referees in women’s sports
again, it doesn't matter what others think. It only matters that it's your opinion and you should be free to share it without getting cautioned or punished if you don't agree with others. That's what I'm taking offense in (freedom of speech I guess is what I'm trying to get at...)It’s literally the same thing and everyone I speak to agrees with me on this. Nobody thinks it’s sexist, they just say “yeah that makes sense”.
100%! That's what I was trying to say too, but I got lost into too many words cause English is not my main language and I'm a bit tired too at the moment, so I couldn't find the wordsBut at the very least if you post the opinion on a forum it’s nice to be able to discuss it with others even if they don’t agree with you.
But yeah, that's the point I tried to make...
yep! That's precisely why I got triggeredFor a mod to come in and tell you what you should think instead of letting you discuss it sounds more like a police state than a discussion board.
But it's not the mod, the guy / gal is just doing their job. It's the forum owner (Diamond Damien) that should be held accountable for implementing woke ToS. And if he's not directly responsible for this (which I have a feeling that he's not) then it's his financers that should be held accountable for these dehumanizing rules... But since those weasels stay hidden in the shadows (like most reptilians do)... I guess I had no one to discuss this with, so I had to leave
