Let's start with AJ. She clearly needs Gender Equity Training.

I would laugh if that was from Cena or Cesaro. Coming from a girl who couldn't even squat the bar? Seems a bit silly.

I'm playing, but curious as to how you honestly view something like this...and how you would view it if someone like the rock tweeted it.

She's got a really big ass and short legs. I bet she would surprise you at what she could squat. Of course, she probably does 45 degree squats, but whatever. Squats are dumb anyway. Hey, let me destroy my knees!

I think it's awful that anyone perpetuates the notion that being female is a sign of weakness.

I don't think that's a dodge at all.  That is the issue with AJ's Tweet.  Now I do believe if the Rock said the same thing the outrage (among some, not necessarily TH) would be much bigger.

For me, I don't really care about any of this as I have no issue with the Rock's comedy or AJ's Tweet.  If you are someone who has an issue with this type of thing though I think you have to take issue with both.

I have no issue with anything, but I was curious if people were going to be intellectually honest

I thought by saying, "I think it's awful that anyone perpetuates the notion that being female is a sign of weakness." that he wasn't dodging the question.  That seems intellectually honest to me.  Now I disagree with his perspective, but this doesn't strike me as hypocritical.

I agree.
 
I am curious, though... TH, do you not think that an average woman is physically weaker than the average male of her same bodyweight?
 
You'd have to go by raw bodyweight, though, really, because if you had a 155 pound woman with 6% bodyfat, she got that way by taking, you guessed it, testosterone.

Stroud's vagina flowed like the Euphrates. Some girl wrote a super cunty guest column on The Wrestling Blog, if I recall correctly.

I think it's dangerous for AJ to tweet from the kitchen, she may burn dinner.

I was bullied extensively by the commoners in my class who couldn't tie their shoes at 3 years of age. They would approach me and say, "Hey, do you want to come to a party this weekend?" and I would say, "Do you realize that you are on a rock, hurtling through space? And that most of the surface is covered with water? So you will either meander around your meaningless existence until you die here on the land, or you'll end up in the water, where you will be drowned, then consumed by creatures, until eventually you are fish feces on the bottom of the ocean's floor. If not, you'll be worm feces. Either way, this life always ends up as shit."

TH is cool and all, but I do think it's hypocritical when people (not just TH) are crying OUTRAGE if you were to say something like that to a woman but are quiet if a woman does the same thing to a man.

Here's one example that TH himself wrote. 

http://wallsofjerichoholic.blogspot.com/2013/01/instant-feedback-oh-rocky-why-do-you.html

It was also discussed in last week's RAW thread, but more of that discussion centered around Stroud's comments than anything TH said.  He did discuss the segment to some degree with Zandrax and others including myself.
