It's bullsh-t and way more women seem to be into it but it's not like men can feel that superior considering how 90% of conspiracy theory heads seem to be male. Does point to a difference though, one is focused on the personal/social, while conspiracy stuff is about the wider world/society.

anewme wrote: » Ehhhhhh just to be straight about this, so there are no misunderstandings. Your original post states that women fall for what you call this this “guff” but men are more “practical”. You are inferring that women are stupid but men won’t fall for guff. Don’t act all surprised or offended when people take you up at being labeled stupid. People registering just to make posts replying belittling women should show you the level of misogyny that exists on these message boards. But maybe your own crystal ball is blurred when asked to look at that.

Make up your mind :rolleyes: If you're offended by me saying that women that visit psychics are stupid and gullible then, chances are, you're one of them and it applies to you. I have no doubt that many women reading this thread agree with what I said and aren't offended as it doesn't apply to them.
gormdubhgorm wrote: » Please re-read my post and look up 'confirmation bias...' I clearly said predominately women. I posed the questions as to why it could be so? It is as simple as that. If you spend all your time looking for rows on the internet you will get an ulcer. Male or female can get those you know. Stop attacking the poster and look at the issue at hand. As for controlling others -I am not a mod I cannot control what other people say or do not say. If you just want to attack posters..... And not look at question I posed as to why it is predominately women that use tarot etc. Then maybe this thread is not suited to you? No point in getting worked up over nothing? Would the old you have done this?
anewme wrote: » Just so there is no ambiguity- I have no doubt that every woman reading this thread objects to your use of the term ““Bint” to describe a woman. It is a derogatory term for a woman, similar to the “n” word, used by crass and classless people and really says a lot about the person using it.
anewme wrote: » In fairness, you really need to think about your question. You are asking a mostly male audience why women use tarot cards. And then sitting back at a sneering condescending audience. Maybe this thread is not in the right place. If you want women’s opinions - The ladies lounge? It’s odd you are asking a question about women (to men) and then believing the men’s answers, not the women’s. And as for personal smartass comments, not relevant, shows your train of thought though.

gormdubhgorm wrote: » Again please get back on track and stop attacking posters with whatver personal issues you may have going on in your life there are other threads for that. In order to help you get back on track: anewme: Do you 1) Think women predominately use tarot cards? 2) If not why not? 3) What sort of demographic do you think uses tarot card services and why? All people are free to answer this question that I posed in the main thread. But you seem intent on creating a storm where there is none and you actually seem to be creating an argument so you can argue with yourself. Those are simple questions I posed please, please be the good you whether that is the old one or the new one. They are simple questions.
