  1. What can feminism do for men?

    A loooong way to go apparently, but at least Target is doing the equal pay for women thing now, even right before they had to! http://blogs.hrhero.com/hrnews/2014/04/08/new-executive-actions-target-equal-pay-for-women/
  2. Vitamin B-12 Shots?

    I'm not going to answer questions which would encourage someone to take something they likely don't need, and which could cause problems without first getting a blood test.
  3. Vitamin B-12 Shots?

    I was b12 deficient in a major way. No other reason to take the shots.
  4. Vitamin B-12 Shots?

    Used to have them monthly. Only needed if you are severely severely low in b12, otherwise just take the pills.
  5. This guy sounds enlightened to me.

    As I understand it, experiences such as this simply mean that one has just *really* started on the path .
  6. Feature request? :)

    I have no idea if this is possible or not, but to be able to "follow" a particular poster, and be notified when they post, would be awesome . Oh sure I know I could just look at their profile once per week or something, but since there are a few members I enjoy the posts of, this might take quite awhile... also would be nice to see the notifications in real time.
  7. Hermetic and Occult - Change?

    Where would I post about Vodoun now?
  8. What can feminism do for men?

    I think this song sums up a lot of what is wrong with society. Please listen to the end of the song.
  9. What can feminism do for men?

    Covers bullying sufficiently too.
  10. What can feminism do for men?

    It is! We covered that sort of thing in women's mysteries, it was very empowering.
  11. What can feminism do for men?

    The more rape culture is endorsed, the more I'm going to post information about the above video .
  12. What can feminism do for men?

  13. Feature request? :)

    "name withheld by request" ROFL
  14. Feature request? :)

    I see this one went over like a lead balloon LOL I was sort of thinking it would be like I get a notification everytime Michael Saso posts on facebook, because his posts are amazingly awesome... ya'll are paranoid . (that is completely joking btw)
  15. This guy sounds enlightened to me.

    Deities still cultivate right?
  16. This guy sounds enlightened to me.

    Because while the experience doesn't stay, you never for a moment forget it . What has been seen can't be unseen.
  17. Hermetic and Occult - Change?

    OK I changed my mind, I definitely like this idea . I also think religions would fit better under the "other" category than the western traditions one; only a few religions are western, and only bits of them are esoteric .
  18. Hermetic and Occult - Change?

    I most definitely like the idea of having "esoteric" in the name, as that most definitely does narrow the focus to what (imo) it has intended to be and has been (mostly) thus far...
  19. What can feminism do for men?

    Unfortunately I have seen just as nasty political plays happen with volunteer positions of various sorts . It is a (perceived) "power" thing.
  20. Worked out really well for areas devastated by earthquakes, shown in this documentary. I just sort of skipped through to the halfway point, but from then on it is good anyways . http://www.offgridquest.com/400
  21. Building self sustainable housing

    Yeah well this guy BUILT a self sustainable island! ...... using recycled plastic bottles! http://www.offgridworld.com/man-builds-floating-tropical-island-paradise-on-150000-recycled-plastic-bottles/ i don't know about everyone else, but the homeless folks here take care of all the plastic bottles, none to be found anywhere. If I were to buy 150,000 of them off the recycle plant, that would cost $15000... guess I'd have to save up for my island.
  22. What can feminism do for men?

    Yeah, Margarette Thatcher isn't a good example for a matriarchal run society lol. Some tribes have done really well with it however. Most people, no matter the gender, change with power, it is unfortunate. The funny thing about my meetup group is that it is currently all guys and me; as I have (by far) the most experience amongst the current group, it is very likely that they wish to not piss me off (fortunately for them that is hard to do usually). The one guy though, I know him well enough to know he really does think that way about women...
  23. What can feminism do for men?

    I don't normally react to PMs like that, I'm just being cranky today I think. The PM wasn't in any way putting down women btw, in case anyone is curious.
  24. Hermetic and Occult - Change?

    How is hermetic about religion? Major religions tend to have done their best to stamp out such practices.... To me personally that would be even more ludicrous as putting it under Daoism. Of course there is christian mysticism and muslim magic, but those are entirely different topics and categories than religion.
