Commenting

As you may have noticed the comments on this website have got truly out of hand. I want to set up a space where we can have reasonable discussion, and feminists will feel safe. That wasn't happening.

While it felt a little stupid deleting comments that said things like:

Could, Maia or any of the other lesbians or homosexuals on this blog tell me why normal heterosexual men should give a damn if man hating lesbians are pack raped? None of you give a damn about fathers getting alienated from their children because of the feminazis many of them lesbians in Parliament?
Those sorts of comments are begging for mockery. But I knew if I did that my blog wouldn't be the sort of space where anyone could have a sane conversation (plus I got really bored with deleting).

So I've made a couple of changes, I've disallowed anonymous comments, so you have register with blogger. This is a bit of a pain in the ass, and I've had a lot of valuable commentators who do so anonymously. But I can't get to my blog often enough to delete all the assholes who want to post here anonymously.

The other is that I'm adopting Feministe's comment policy "My Blog, My discretion".
