I'd imagine catcher would be the easiest thing to play?

Never need to throw outside the diamond.

The diamond is pretty big, and if you don't have a strong arm the other team will steal bases on you all day. And...

2nd base would be the ideal location for a nimble player that doesn't have much limitation on physique. Typical ground balls will be thrown to first or lobbed to the short-stop at second. As long as they can be quick to catch a stolen base, a line drive, a ground ball, and throw it among the diamond, anyone could handle it.

...if you are playing a position (not pitching), you have to be able to hit to some extent.

I don't know about NFL kickers. We haven't even had a female kicker make a college team. A knuckleballer is plausible. Beyond that the woman would need freakish physical ability and/or skill to be a viable player with men in something like soccer or any other sport really.

we had a couple girls on our football team in 8-10th grade. they were pretty good. and well developed, so it was a lot of fun watching their tits bounce all over during practice.

Thing is, American league has the designated hitter which in most cases is the pitcher's spot in the batting order.

I'm certain I get what you're saying, but you didnt word it properly?

DH always replaces the pitcher in the AL batting lineup (I dont believe I've ever heard of an AL team letting their pitcher bat and replacing a fielder in the lineup), but he is not subjected to the typical 9 spot for pitchers (rarely teams will put a pitcher at 8)

Anita doxing her critics on twitter.

[Tarage]

Do as I say not as I do.

[Kohan]

Considering that all she says amounts to "hurr durr I can be as negative and empty-headed as possible and idiots who won't think for themselves say I'm stellar," I wouldn't even call this contradictory. Is she doing something she shouldn't? Yes. Is it justified in her mind? Yes. Not surprising.

I was arguing about feminism and video games the other day, and someone brought up one of her blogs as a defense that games hate women. I tried to explain that anita wasn't a credible source...I wasn't believed.

Basically, I found anita's target audience.

[Not Kuno]

She's doxing people? I hope she goes to prison.

Games without female main characters: Misogyny! These games don't have female protags!

Wait what? Publishing someone's name and IP address is doxing them? Get the fuck out.

Doxing (spelling variant Doxxing) is an abbreviation of document tracing, the Internet-based practice of researching and publishing personally identifiable information about an individual.The methods employed in pursuit of this information range from searching publicly available databases and social media websites like Facebook, to hacking, and social engineering. It is closely related to cyber-vigilantism, hacktivism, and cyber-bullying

Name, email and external IP address. What more do you really need?

http://www.iplocation.net/
http://www.whitepages.com/
https://pipl.com/

or motherfucking Google.com

If they are using a throwaway email, not their real name, and pivoting to boxes in different states that have no direct link to them then yeah sure.

[Correction]

Doxing means putting in the legwork to find someone outside of their internet presence. Here is the form Captain Fedora used to call her a cunt:

Oh no Anita Sarkeesian is teh haxxer posting personally identifiable informationz!

I repeat, get the fuck out.

She is posting the names and IP's of people who disagree with her openly on twitter for her 88k followers to see. This is slightly different than if I were to post someones IP here on bg. Even if it's not technically doxing, it's very shitty.

Well the 'name' of the example provided is "W.G"

He goes further than 'disagreeing' with her

“You are a lying whore and you know you’re lying about everything but then again, all feminists lie.”

“You’re such a gredy cunt…”

“You show your true colors and what a disgusting pig of a human being you are.”

“I am grateful for everything you’ve done since now feminists look even more pathetic”

“See you soon m’lady.”

“You’re a cunt. A manipulative, faux-intellectual cunt. And if you think I’m attacking you because I’m sexist, lol, sorry no. It’s because willful ignorance and maliciousness should never be tolerated.”

The goal is naming and shaming this behavior, and doesn't go nearly as far as, say, Hello There Racists or Predditor. Oh noes, someone knows that "W.G" and "Peter McGuire" are shitlords online. Don't worry I'll be sure to do the 'naughty naughty' finger wag at her for not having a privacy policy on her web page if I meet her in person.

[Not Kuno]

Someone popular online is receiving hate? Better stop the presses. I still stand by my statement that if you have a huge following and you post names/IPs of dissenting opinions/hate you are a massive shithead. There is no arguing out of this one. The only exception I'd make to this would be threats of violence and the like, and that should still only go to the police.

[Correction]

I agree that privacy is important.

What these guys have done is post information to a webform, and then finding out that doing so has a way of not staying private.

But hey we here at BlueGartr Forums take privacy very very seriously.

As someone who obviously has no problem whatsoever identifying as a feminist, and who is forever outraged at how awful Anita's work is, I concede that you did.
