I'm quite a lot like the OP in the sense that I have a dark sense of humour. I also never get offended by anything and I do cringe at how sensitive some people/morons are nowadays. Watching company's and people apologising because they upset a 1% minority makes me sick. Ricky Gervais nailed this topic by saying
'just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right'

The fact that you said 1% minority means understand. You have passed the test.

Notwithstanding the atrocious spelling and grammar I'll try and give my thoughts on this.
The gender issue is a difficult one but I agree that letting children decide which gender they want to be is especially dangerous as children don't have the mental capacity to understand this and those who insist on having irreversible physical changes to their bodies (only a small percentage I know) cannot fully appreciate the magnitude of this. There's also an undisputed correlation between mental issues / autism and gender dysfunction but pointing this out in today's society makes you a bigot or someone who apparently lacks any compassion, which is nonsense.
Feminism in principle is a nobel cause but today's modern third wave feminism has become rotten and toxic beyond belief. This constant insistence that women are paid less than men for the same job (they aren't) is at best a terrible misinterpretation of statistics and at worst a pernicious lie. The feminists' accusations of manliness an being 'toxic' and insistence that we live in a tyrannical patriarchy are not only untrue but dangerous. It's a terrible notion to force on men and to try to indoctrinate young girls with. The latest example of this manifesting in that reprehensible Gillette advert.

I think this comment represents some of the issues today with people understanding feminism.
Firstly, a small correction is that that third wave feminism began in the 90s ended almost 10 years ago. From 2012 we are onto fourth wave feminism.
Secondly, two crucial areas of third wave and fourth is intersectionality, individualism and diversity. This was a reaction to second wave feminism failure to include much representation in regards to other marginalised groups. This included LGBT and people of colour.
Diversity and individualism actually mean that there is far more tolerance and freedom in the movement in how people can define themselves. This would be what separates the views of a third wave feminist and a second wave. For example, a second wave Fem would view the Burka as a symbol of oppression, a third wave feminist would view it as religious and cultural freedom.
So ironically it is very disingenuous to say third wave feminism accuse "manliness as being toxic". The crucial part of the movement is diversity and individualism!
You are conflating a mixture of different kinds of movements together, like fourth wave, radical feminists and third wave. Radical feminists, who have strong views on masculinity have existed since the 60s, and was much larger through the second wave.
On a side note - I really wish that people did not research these topics through reactionaries! There is a real issue today with figures misrepresenting these topics cynically, so that more people begin to lean economically right-wing.

A dark sense of humour is great, I share it. The problem is when it's just a bad tempered rant, and not funny.
The likes of Frankie Boyle go to dark places, but make you laugh, and go after any and all subjects.
What we're seeing in modern times is people targeting specific groups, in terms of sexism, homophobia, racism, and skipping the actual humour part. And then pass it off as 'banter'.
Then we have the likes of Craig Curren, on this thread bemoaning peoples choices to be vegan, live in this country if they're foreign (goodbye most prem footballers btw) or whatever, whilst at the same time whinging that he's not allowed to whinge.
At least I think that was the gist, you appear barely literate to be honest.
Bottom line, if you want to be dark for the sake of a joke, I have no problem with that. If you want to just be sexist/racist/homophobic or in any other way intolerant, frankly I just don't like you.
The OP has summed the Spurs and Arsenal boards up quite well. 👍
