Why do feminists flock to "trolling questions" just to tell the question asker how he is trolling?

but avoid hard on topic questions that fit perfectly into the gender and women studies question, either by not answering, by answering with a question, by dismissing the premise of the question, or by calling it a trolling question, when it is the polar opposite of a trolling question ?

Update:

Yes butterfly, the trolling questions you mentioned, which you spent a great deal of effort on answering.

    Feminists (especially on GWS) are narcissists. They are more concerned with the power they feel they have through feminism, than any actual issues. They don't get any such feeling from reasoning on an issue, only through insulting people.

    Why do feminist flock to troll questions....?

    I don't know. Maybe for the same reason anti-feminist answer redundant feminist troll questions. To blow off some steam. Personally I think that's a waste of time but whatever.

    Why do feminist avoid hard topic questions?

    a. They've already been asked.

    b. They are "amen corner" echo chamber questions designed to give an anti-feminist ba for the best written shout of amen to the presupposition. That's not to say that there aren't feminist who do that too. Neither group can be required to answer questions that they have no chance of being rewarded for with ba simply because it doesn't agree with the questioner's politics.

    c. On some rare occasions noone has an answer. Again this happens with both camps anti and fem.

    edit- I'll probably wind up erasing this because I doubt its a sufficient amen. But I thought I'd extend you the courtesy of a feminist answering your question.

    I see countless definitions of a troll. people who reason concern and then bypass away, those with countless money owed, and now people who record abuse or thumbs down. The buttons are there for a reason. in case you destroy the regulations and get caught, who in truth is the troll. And why do those human beings think of its against the regulation to desire issues achieved the final way, which by making use of the way, i did no longer MAKE UP THE YAHOO words OF provider in case you have a concern with my remark. Who could admit to being a troll.?

    I'll answer difficult questions if I think I have any relevant experience with the topic questioned.

    I don't mind responding to troll questions, too, though... because 1. some innocent dears out there don't realize trolling when they see it, both male or female, and 2. it's an easy 2 points

    What hard topic questions? You mean the ones like "Why do feminists hate Bayonetta" or maybe one like "Have you ever heard a feminists admit she is wrong," or another like "Would you date a 19 year old feminists or a 90 year old real women." Shall I continue? The time you people on this forum get a logical nonbiased discussion. One that talks about the real problems and how we can improve society and make a better living for both sexes then call me. Because this thing is loaded with troll questions that's why this is my favorite forum. I go here to get a good laugh everyday. Some people just love to hear themselves talk. Yet nothing of meaning ever comes out its just all gibberish. I want to see a "hard on topic question" so please point me in the direction of one.

    Source(s): LMAO as i typed this, especially when you said hard on topic questions.

    That's what I have wondered too -- I almost never answer troll question (except for that gentleman from NJ, but that's because I know his question will be deleted after I get my 2 points), but I almost ALWAYS see the regular Feminist crowd getting on to troll questions like "WHOSE SUPEERIOR MEN ARE WOMEN? XD" and correcting his grammar/typos while congratulating each other for their perceived 'mastery" of the English language. It's so predictable, it's even hilarious!

    I agree. I thought I was the only one who noticed this. Many good questions I expect to see the "usual suspects" and they are no shows. Then the really stupid troll questions, I thought none of the regulars are going to waste their superior intellect on. I'm always surprised to see them answering in droves with something supposedly "witty" to say.
