Highlight:

It's cute how some people act so aggrieved that they can't post in HoF. (HOF THREAD) [View all] redqueen Jun 2014 OP

Surely you dont mean misogynists are annoyed that they cant bust randys1 Jun 2014 #1

it's shitty how many people are opposed to the idea of safe zones PeaceNikki Jun 2014 #2

The ignorance paraded here lately on the issue of free speech in general is fucking shocking. redqueen Jun 2014 #3

They have no problem with their own safe haven groups BainsBane Jun 2014 #14

You chicks just don't understand how hard it is to be a white male!! jeff47 Jun 2014 #4

I'm sorry, but I need to leave. This is literally killing my sides. AAO Jun 2014 #44

Ooooohkay. Buh bye now thanks for stopping by. redqueen Jun 2014 #52

Link? redqueen Jun 2014 #7

It was a long time ago, intheflow Jun 2014 #21

Well that wasn't in HoF then. HoF didn't exist back then. redqueen Jun 2014 #27

i was thinking the same. i had other issues on my plate and i KNOW you were not all over it. lol. nt seabeyond Jun 2014 #28

LOL! redqueen Jun 2014 #30

ah ha. that is funny. nt seabeyond Jun 2014 #34

Yes, someone else pointed this out to me downthread. intheflow Jun 2014 #29

Oh honey, no apology necessary. redqueen Jun 2014 #31

The mistake is understandable. The misinformation and slams about HoF are so frequent, I am sure Squinch Jun 2014 #36

At least you acknowledged the mistake BainsBane Jun 2014 #45

Egads! intheflow Jun 2014 #62

Yeah jollyreaper2112 Jun 2014 #8

intheflow was talking about something specific. your post is only about vague accusations and seabeyond Jun 2014 #10

The incident was early in my DU life. intheflow Jun 2014 #19

different group. different people. thank you for letting us know how long ago it was. seabeyond Jun 2014 #20

You know, you're one of the people I like elsewhere on DU. intheflow Jun 2014 #23

and more... good to hear intheflow. i have always enjoyed your posts. seabeyond Jun 2014 #24

I don't think HoF was created until 2012 on DU3. There was the Feminist group in existence before seaglass Jun 2014 #22

Ah, maybe it was another group! intheflow Jun 2014 #26

This group didn't exist then BainsBane Jun 2014 #40

Yeah... I'm so fucking sick of the 'man-hater' canard. redqueen Jun 2014 #55

Some people *really* need to get over their obsession with this group. redqueen Jun 2014 #67

Why read a group they consider so offensive? BainsBane Jun 2014 #75
