Mmmm, I'm not impressed with the language. A thinking man doesn't need such statements from a thinking woman. Rather saddeing. Should thinking men wear similar T-shirts and say ".. so f*** you!"? I'm certain the answer would be no. Maybe I have joined the wrong group :-(
To the right of the picture, you'll find a link labeled "Flag as offensive." Clicking that should be sufficient, rather than leaving comments criticizing someone else's language like some sort of Internet hall monitor. Frankly, I'm not offended by the language of the caption as much as I am by the obscenely bulging tendons in the woman's neck. ::grin::
Where can I find what he actually said? He actually swore or said f*** you? Also, what is this feminist stuff about? Surely men and women differ in fundamental ways. Women have periods, some have PMS and get cranky or/and get pains, they bear children, they have to get rid of hair in all kinds of places that men do not, they tend to have weaker muscles, they tend to get emotional rather than logical, they take days off work for some virus which is always 'going around' .... and yet they are equal? I'd be grateful if you could explain this concept to me. Who exactly is a feminist? What does it actually mean in words ordinary people can understand? Does it suggest that they much prefer the company of women, and a man is a sort of afterthought? Someone to do 'stuff' around the house', someone onto whom a feminist can vent her wrath and frustration? Yes .... please explain what a feminist is.
That comment "So f-you" has left a big lable on the internet saying Dr. so & so said So F-you. I'm not impressed. Do you know if it can be removed and how? Yes the bulging tendons and skin of the neck quickly tells men that a woman is not exactly as young as she thinks her make-up makes her look.
I'm writing to you as I don't know if you're some person who monitors what is said or not. I'm just unimpressed with that 'gaping' comment on Google.
Sorry, I am not an employee of Vox or SixApart. I was just trying to be helpful by pointing out the correct way to flag something that offended you. The only person who can delete your comments from this post is the blog owner, which is CupCate. You could message her from the link under the profile picture at the top left. Perhaps if you asked her really nicely, she would delete them. Otherwise, I'm sure that anyone who clicks the search engine links will realize the context of your statement by reading your comment. Anyone except "PureMedic," that is.
You may be totally taken aback and even 'shocked' by what I'm about to say, viz.: Those people who know me would say I'm the very last person to be called a 'weirdo' or 'crazy' or any other synonyms. When I'm greeted with politeness and even the most basic of good manners, I am the friendliest man people are likely to encounter. It's sad that you have made yourself judge, jury and executioner.
If I'm treated with disrespect and other nasty adjectives then I speak my mind vociferously. So far, nobody has 'yanked my chain', but I find letters that are defamatory/libellous, and that is not kind. You posted personal messages for the whole world to see, and that is unkind to say the least. You're quick to judge and spend your time on gossip; have you nothing better to do? I'm really saddened by your remarks as they convey the current trend for absence of the most basic good manners. The newspaper article is, as always (regarding medical matters), misleading, apart from where it says I'm a doctor. In USA terms one could say I have a double major - in medicine and pharmacology. I have not been erased from the medical register permanently; only for a maximum of eighteen months (from 31st August 2007), pending reviews every six months. I had made no secret of dependency, as that alone is not sufficient reason for permanent erasure from the list of doctors practising in the UK. It's a very long and convoluted story/situation and I have never attempted to mislead the UK medical authorities in any way whatsoever. Being temporarily suspended does not mean that I suddenly lost my medical knowledge. The suspension is an interim measure for a fact-finding mission to assess my personality after being absent from medicine in the UK for quite some time. I would therefore thank you for not jumping to conclusions abruptly, without knowing all the facts. Having said that, there are too many facts and mitigating circumstances to explain everything precisely. All I ask is that I be given the benefit of the doubt, as it would be too complex to write everything down.
There really is no need to block my posts as, if I am the recipient of good manners, I respond in the same way, There is really no need for nasty comments as they are not positively constructed and imply an irrascible personality.
Finally, I'm from the UK and have been told that I'm not entirely certain how Vox works. I thought it was a place to blog and speak with like-minded people; but, apparently, this is not the way Vox is run. I would be grateful for an explanation, but I think you may have blocked me.
My apologies for typos; I hope you and others will change your opinion of me, as I am truly not the sort of man (i.e. weirdo) which I have been portrayed to be.
Kind wishes,
Janusz Rogowski
P.S. My apologies if I have hurt you and any other member of vox.
I apologise for hurting you in what was a personal trial of behaviour towards 'nastiness'. I didn't think people would be so offended. I offer my most sincere apology and ask if you will accept it. Please feel free to comment further.
I wanted to see how people reacted towards seemingly nasty and nonsensical behaviour. I have noticed a distinct lowering of 'morals/ethics' in the world at present. I wanted to see whether adverse comments had some/any effect on the present adult generation. The mere fact that my nonsense was noted is somewhat reassuring. I had almost lost faith in people accepting what is wholesome and what is over the top. I gave up in July, but returned now (December 31st 2007) to find comments.
I particularly dislike other, often young, people, playing ... is it iPods or some other hardware(?) music in the confined space of, say, a bus to the city. The invariably rap music is distorted, with hissing high frequencies and only moderate bass 'effect'. The problem is that many, usually young .. teenage people have little concept that they may be forcing people to listen to their music, and heaven forbid should anyone complain as they would literally be putting their lives at risk!
I'd be grateful if you removed the: Dr Janusz Rogowski says "so fuck you" comment on Google. It's not any impediment to my career, but I'm asking you nicely and you're entitled to your feminist stance. Let's be adults about this hmmm?
On the contrary, I am strongly in favour of good manners but have noticed a descending trend in this area of human thinking. Bad manners are something which annoy me and I am actually a very polite person .. possibly to your disbelief.
I've been on holiday for the last week and came back to all this.
Dr Janusz Rogowski, thanks for all three of your harassing emails.
Whatever happens when
you Google you name has nothing to do with me. The
title of this photo has ALWAYS been "So Fuck You!" as in "This IS what
a feminist looks like, SO FUCK YOU!" I never said "Dr.Janusz Rogowski said 'So fuck you'."
Clearly, you don't understand how the internet works, and you clearly don't get that I'm not in charge of Google.
Maybe
you should have been smart enough not to use your professional name on
a social networking site, and to NOT use your professional name when
commenting on a public photograph entitled "So fuck you!".
That's your own stupidity, and your own doing. Not mine.

It was included in the group because it was in my post:

I'm sorry if you're not impressed by "my language", or if you think that a "thinking woman" can't say Fuck. I think that is sad.
Hello Paxman,

Hello,
I made a typo: the word is spelled 'label'.

You erase any doubt of your weirdness, stupidity, and plain old bad manners every time you post.
I apologise for hurting you in what was a personal trial of behaviour towards 'nastiness'. I didn't think people would be so offended. I offer my most sincere apology and ask if you will accept it. Please feel free to comment further.

But now you have. And I've quoted it! Heehee!! Let the Googling begin!!
