Fleshlight (T-H-L) has an article too! Genderdesk, doing the research on sex toy colors so you don't have too.A fleshlight, for those who even want to know, is a sort of male dildo. It comes in a variety of shapes, including anal, and costs about $80. The color choices are Caucasian, Caucasian, or Caucasian.
Looks like that dingbat couldn't even research the product properly. African American porn actress Misty_Stone (T-H-L) according to her Wikipeida Bio has her very own fleshlight model. I'm sure you can find the product if you wish, but it definitely has a light mocha color. The Fleshlight company should ask gender desk to correct the record. They might even throw in a few free samples.

Fleshlights? What are you, casuals? Tenga egg or bust, filthy non wapanese.

Re: Peanut Gallery Objection about Wikipediocracy
She has a point, in that the thread in question is an absolute disgrace and should be deleted - or, at minimum, hidden from public view.
Nevertheless, I'm not sure I would agree that misogyny is the direct motivating force behind the disgraceful posting activity in question. It has become a basic precept among #Gamergate supporters that Mr. Bernstein's behavior (on WP and elsewhere) is "beyond the pale" and completely at odds with, well, just about everything humanity stands for. I've found that any attempt to argue against this ludicrous precept is either treated as an absurdity or simply ignored, as if the person suggesting it (often myself) is some sort of idiot. So really, why bother? The #Gamergate people have essentially forced us into a position where we only have three options in terms of thread/content management: accept them, contain them, or just ban them all outright, categorically. Options 1 and 3 go against our basic principles, so Option 2 is almost like a default, and we just hope these fellas will occasionally make a cogent point elsewhere that will justify their presence in some way. Overall, the site is still fairly healthy; this is just what forums do, simply because there's no superior fourth option.
Ultimately it's more of a stain than a cancer, or at least that's how I prefer to look at it.

I moved that crapulent topic to the 'Wikimedians Too Embarrassing..." subforum.

I think it best that we all try harder to ignore this particular individual and her obsession with this website. You're not doing anyone any favors by giving her vacuous rantings broader distribution by talking about them.

Actually, I found the blog to be quite nice. The sort of thing I wish was possible to accommodate here, but I think right now the "other side" has yet more political sway.
Keep reaching for that rainbow.

See here: List of countries and dependencies by population (T-H-L)
The United States (just the fifty states and the District of Columbia) make up 4.42% of the world's population. Including Puerto Rico and other dependencies, the United States would make up approximately 4.5% of the world's population.

To be fair, the signage on the B-W Parkway is probably good enough to prevent even Wikipedians from making the roughly 65-mile eastward detour, assuming they're coming from Philadelphia.LynnWysong wrote:The arrow points to Annapolis, rather than DC?

Soft shells are in season, so if that's your thing Greg, a detour might be in order. I personally go for the (albeit pricey) #1 males. She crab soup is a great starter.
