His/her/its initial reply was a complete non sequitur. There was nothing to be sarcastic about. It's just some dipshit being a dipshit, and we don't need that around here.
Edit ban applied to the Fay Fay handle.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Wait, you can do that now?
Might want to fix your entry on Know The Staff, chum.
See you in the discussion pages.Sorry, I forgot to modify it. FE's still working on the page locking tool.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"I think Fay Fay was sarcastically naming tropes that were once strongly upheld in real life. I.e., said non sequitors were the cited reasons for punishments for infidelity in the past. Not necessarily voicing his own opinions.
edit: ...Said the troper THREE YEARS LATER.
Edited by 50.142.151.209I find the "Both men and women categorize partners along these lines" bit really unnecessary and offensive, this is supposed to be about tropes in fiction, adding on an unsourced "Fact is, if you're a whore no one will ever love you IRL" is a bit... gratuitous and well offensive.
I'm reverting this:
Just because the punishments for sleeping around were different, doesn't mean that people didn't want to sleep around or keep their partners from doing so. What do you think those punishments were for? (See All Women Are Lustful.)
