    Yes, of course, it's called having an opinion based on personal experience, and it's what we all do on a discussion site FFS.

    It's only people who think their personal experience is some sort of absolute truth and go making up numbers to back up their opinion who are being dishonest.

    Unlike you, I've done no such thing.

    Sorry that's utter rubbish and down right dishonest.

    99% is a well known figure of speech it's not meant to be taken literally - perhaps that's the first time you've encountered that I dunno. It's fine to have an opinion but you try and pick at the form rather than the substance when you inevitably back yourself into a corner.

    It's perfectly reasonable to say women should be allowed (as should men) to decide if they want to share their home with the opposite sex but don't try and dress it up in some moral high ground - it's discrimination plain and simple.

    As for all the rape nonsense I have to admit that has got my back up. Perfectly reasonable parts of that debate are constantly shouted down and cheapened. Not every man is a rapist in waiting just waiting for the right time to pounce.

    Perhaps you missed where I explained that I wasn't saying that at all.
    Yep, must have missed that. I'd ask you to enlighten me, but to be honest I'm not entirely sure what the **** you're talking about at this stage. In my estimation you haven't made a single cogent point.

    Well misandry, much like misogyny, doesn't tend to run on logic and coherency.
