==Sense of Humor==
I find it ironic that this article states that feminists do not have a sense of humor. A lot of my fellow conservatives have no sense of humor whatsoever (which is why the 1/2 hour news hour was a welcome attempt, even if it didn't quite hit the mark). Anyway, this statement is not cited, and sounds like someone's opinion. I would like to remove it, as this is an encyclopedia. The rest of the article was spot on, especially the part about "altering language" to assert their viewpoint (At my college, many female student wanted the "ombudsman" to be called an "ombudsperson", despite the fact that Ombudsman is a Swedish word which has nothing to do with men.)--[[User:APeters|APeters]] 13:34, 6 September 2009 (EDT)

:Please take a look around, beyond the predictably liberal college culture. Type in "feminists" "no sense of humor" in a Yahoo! search and see nearly 30,000 websites pulled up noting this style.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 14:27, 6 September 2009 (EDT)

== Title ==
Depsite the fact this article is pathetic (I'm no fan of feminists but really..)I think it Feminist Style sounds awkward. Perhaps 'Characteristics' is a better title.

== Sexual harassment ==

Please, please, please tell me that the "think sexual harassment is a bad thing" is a vandal strike, or something. Are you telling me there's people out there who believe sexual harassment is a good thing? And that feminists are the only ones who believe it's bad?[[User:Raggs|Raggs]] 07:12, 15 April 2008 (EDT)

Metal Gear Solid

2009-09-05T20:38:24Z

APeters:

'''Metal Gear Solid''' is the first in a long line of Playstation based stealth action games. The Games deal primarily with conspiracy theories involving nuclear weapons, genetic engineering, artificial intelligence, and censorship. With the exception of Metal Gear Solid 3 every game is played mostly through the eyes of the character [[Solid Snake]].

In each installment Snake would have to sneak into a place occupied with either terrorist or communist and rescue important government or military officials then destroy a [[Metal Gear]] and defeat super human bosses.

== Conservative Themes ==
The Games all contain heavy messages about the dangers of cloning, even though the main character is himself a clone.

In Metal Gear Solid 4 the entire world adopts a weapons system that allows only the military to use guns. The system is eventually taken over by terrorist and the entire world is put in danger of terrorist by [[gun control]].

The main villain of Metal Gear Solid 3 is a [[bisexual]] [[Russian]] [[communist]] who tortures people for fun and ended up nuking his own people to further his own goals.

Every super natural character is evil or misguided.

The character Vamp is a [[bisexual]] terrorist who killed several of the good characters in the series. Vamp also has many super natural powers though they are all explained through nano machines.

Even though Solid Snake is a good character and has to defeat evil he still shows [[compassion]] for his fallen enemies even going as far as granting them their final wishes.

The Communist Russians create a nuclear weapon during the Cold War the breaks many treaties and ethics and plan to use it to end the Cold War but are stopped by Big Boss.

The secretive villain throughout all the Metal Gear Solid games is actually a former British soldier who decides to control the world through [[censorship]].

Some of the villains go through [[redemption]] before their deaths.

Snake refuses sex and his sexual urges several times throughout the series.

Former Mercenary and terrorist [[Grey Fox]] is [[resurrected | resurrection]] through science to be used to fight more but instead decides to give his life to save Solid Snake.

Despite being stronger then some of the men in game none of the women are actually lesbians and are all completely [[heterosexual]].

Pong

APeters:

'''Pong''' is the second commercial [[video game]], the first being "Tennis for Two." It was designed by Atari Inc. and released on November 29, 1972. The name is derived from the action of imitating ping-pong.

Pong has entered popular culture as a term connoting something that in its heyday was quite popular, but with time has become outmoded. The game is still popular with Atari purists, and the original consoles and equipment often sell for hundreds of dollars on eBay, and other sites.

{{stub}}In the Medieval poem, [[Beowulf]], '''Unferth''' is the son of [[Ecglaf]] who slew his brother. Unferth gave Beowulf an unreliable sword, though it is debatable whether it an intentional attempt to put Beowulf in danger, or he unknowingly gave Beowulf the defective sword out of good intention.

In [[China | Chinese]] politics, a '''mass campaign''' refers to a [[propaganda]] campaign directed by the [[Chinese Communist Party]] to galvanize the population in support of a new policy. A historical example of a mass campaign is the 1956 [[Hundred Flowers Movement]].

Should we mention the symbolic cannibalism that is sometimes found in religions ("This is by body, this is my blood")? --[[User:Pibu|Pibu]] 20:36, 11 December 2007 (EST)

: No, because this not cannibalism.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 20:48, 11 December 2007 (EST)

::Goodness, gracious. I think it was [[Robert Heinlein]] who called it symbolic cannibalism. Such a waste of a fertile mind: he "wore his imagination like a private suit of clothes" and influenced a generation, but he was stridently anti-religious. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 19:07, 4 November 2008 (EST)

:::He was not so much anti-religious as he was anti-organized religion. There are several characters in his books that are sympathetic to religion. In one (I will fear no evil) the main character explains that even if another character, who is a preacher, is dead wrong about their believes the joy, comfort and propose they bring to others lives is still a great goodness. Sorry Heinlein is my favor other so I have to defend him when I can :) --[[User:WillB|WillB]] 12:51, 9 November 2008 (EST)

What about Catholicism? I'm not very well versed in the ritual, but I think they believe when the priest blesses the food, it literally becomes the body of Christ through Transubstantiation. --[[User:APeters|APeters]] 11:23, 4 September 2009 (EDT)
