@jmd I understand that you are furious facing the reality of definitions of sexism and it apllies to your behavior ! I only post the dictionnaries definition. You can deny ... it wont change the reality. In a way it is good that you are ashamed to realize that this behavior is sexist.
Apparently for people like the pretended "coach", no arguments but opinions to discredit not the opinions, but the persons classified through his fantasms as mad, fool, etc ... ! It is totally absurd ! If you read your tricentenary rituals (instead of chattering about gay baker or bigottery totally irrelevant of the subject) you should read that FM is UNIVERSAL ! And that FM are ONE PEOPLE on the surface of the earth, sharing SAME RULES. Your categorisations have nothing to do with freemasonery but your social, political life.
I know that for some of you, pride and arrogance have replaced our masonic texts.
On this forum I expect to exchange with freemasons who found their opinions on the masonic rituals, not on their religious beliefs or sexual practices or self-opinion..
Apprently, you deny right to some masons to express their opinions about women in freemasonery (the subject) and especially to the ones who practice Freemasonery with women and who normally know the REAL situation ... Is'it silly ?
Apparently, you defend your right to militate for your sexism and deny the right to express opposite opinions ?
OK ! it is easy to insult, as you do ... Proof of weakness.
You ave to consider A FACT : Sexism is mandatory in the lodges accepting to obey your organisations, women-men are not mandatory in non-sexist masonery.
So, dont play the "victims", please !
