Seeing Hooker was never going to take the offensive, Lee pulled two more Divisions, those of South Carolinian RH Anderson and Georgian Lafayette McLaws from in front of Hooker and led them himself against Sedgwick in conjunction with Jubal Early. It was to be a day of frustration for Lee, as he could not prod McLaws forward and get the 3 division attack going. Sedgwick withdrew over Banks’ Ford when he lost Marye’s Heights to Early.(Early had a great battle.)
This was the cue for Hooker to call the campaign over and he withdrew over US Ford on the 5th. Casualties were high for the four day battle: 13000 for Lee and 17000 for Hooker. Lee’s proportion was too high, considering he only had 60000 to start with.
Lee and the South had bettered an army twice the size of their own and given Virginia breathing space. Lee’s next move, as it had been in 62, after a victory, was to move North.
Gettysburg awaited.
Jackson would never again be Lee’s “right arm”’ as he passed away on the 10th from complications from his amputation.
His last words were: let us cross over the river and rest in the shade of the trees.
Is internatioal woman's day sexist?

Well?
Is Intertnational women’s day a good idea? Or stupid and sexist?
-
Why would it be sexist?

Given the political topics that you bring up on this board Garg, I have a new recomendation for your signature:
“Y’all don’t know what it’s like, being male middle-class and white.”
-
LMAO!
-
What does this have to do with being middle class? or white?
If your comment was in regards to how I am MALE, I could obviously agree with you… but it doesn’t?
Perhaps for you two we could create an international low IQ day? ;)
Whatever happens, I hope no one else catches Heppsititus.
-
Why would it be sexist?Â
It’s sexist because it isn’t international EQUALITY day.
It’s all about promoting one sex, perhaps at the expense of another.

Pret near every day on the roads around here….

Garg, I can’t wait til Mother’s day comes around. I look forward to that pointless thread when it does.
How is it you manage to get out of bed in the morning when so many innocuous things threaten you to the core?

:-D Exactly!

Garg, you’re going about the whole getting people to take the red pill thing the wrong way. However…
International Women’s Day is a perfect example of feminist irony. The irony which they are unable to see.
Here is another stunning example.

Very interesting article Frimmel.
It is important to read the footnotes however.
In this and the previous article on the Ryerson matter, I conflated Ryerson Student Union (RSU) with Ryerson University, which are two separate entities. The efforts to censor the discussion of men’s issues emanate solely from RSU and not Ryerson University.

That is a correction. It does not negate the fact that women in charge of a student group with not inconsequential authority passed a rule denying misandry because women don’t have a voice. If that isn’t irony on a base level, I really wasted my time in literature class. Women are the majority of students at Ryerson and in college and university overall.

Ironic indeed. Let’s hope it’s an immature attitude but I fear it is not.

That statistic has been true for awhile. It depends of course on the program wg. Sadly computer science has not changed much. I recently took a few 4th year courses at Brock, machine learning and a specific 4th year comp sci math course. 3 girls between the two courses where the class size was 20 and 25 students. So 42 males versus 3 females. Comp Sci is atypical of classroom makeups by gender, I was seriously thinking of taking a woman’s study course just to get female exposure. The girlfriend did not see the merit in that!

Women’s day is discriminatory against men. If they are going to have it they should also have “Men’s day”, but that would leave out the transgener people so they would need a “transgender day”, or they could just have a single “International Person’s Day” for all of us to share. Either way, it should be PAID HOLIDAY :-)

There actually is a “mens” day, except that no one celebrates it… there’s no media… and it doesn’t get rammed down everyone’s throat.

Are you really interested in celebrating a day by having men rammed down your throat Garg?
I must have had you pegged wrong this whole time…

I would say I am a bit worried that somebody is pegging Garg, but Trudeau had it right when he said to “Stay out of peoples bedrooms”. Each to their own!

If gay people have pride week, then us straight white guys should have our own week too. Call it “Shame Week”.

I’ve got it.
White History YEAR!
