Do you like your polls

A: with a nice blend of 70's misogyny?
B: include phrases that suggest you own women?
C: are probably going to be laughed off as a joke

Night Witch10 May 2017 4:55 a.m. PST

It is a serious question. I'm a middle aged woman and I'm genuinely curious. I am surprised at the reactions so far.

Likui00610 May 2017 5:13 a.m. PST

Tan!

This reminds me of the time years ago when my wife told me she preferred tidy-whites to boxers. I almost divorced her because I had a hard time explaining that that suggested she was trying to own me and that it indicated she had a terrible view of men.

I like my wife's to match mine

What a dumb poll. Tmp surpasses itself.

This thread is like a big beautiful onion comprised of irony. You peel back one layer of irony only to reveal another.

Since the OP is a woman, it is almost funny that in fear of possible misogyny, actual misogyny has occurred whereby one of the few women on this forum was shouted down?

Or the irony of decrying men as thinking they own women by stating a color preference for stockings by declaring that they have the right to speak for women (or that they need to step in to defend them…against a woman)?

It's like a advanced class in preconceptions. Bravo.

You noticed that, eh?

alien BLOODY HELL surfer10 May 2017 6:57 a.m. PST

what a great idea for a poll as TMP and wargaming as a whole doesn't already have a tarnished image / view people take of wargamers

Joes Shop Supporting Member of TMP10 May 2017 8:00 a.m. PST

TG: +1.

cavcrazy10 May 2017 8:25 a.m. PST

All of the above…..as it pertains to women.

RittervonBek10 May 2017 8:28 a.m. PST

I was once asked a similar question by a female acquaintance who got annoyed by my reply: who cares about the wrapping paper?

Moonraker Miniatures10 May 2017 8:51 a.m. PST

I thought it was going to be a tutorial on how to paint them in 28mm.

My women miniatures typically have armor plating on their legs, a few have military uniforms.

That's what this is about right?

StCrispin10 May 2017 9:52 a.m. PST

Black, white, and tan in that order. The only female miniature i currently have painted is joan of arc though, who is well armoured. And was burned alive for dressing like a man.

Patrick Sexton Supporting Member of TMP10 May 2017 10:16 a.m. PST

All of the above.

Weasel10 May 2017 11:39 a.m. PST

A single poster mentioning misogyny out of more than 30 is hardly "shouting down".

Personal logo StoneMtnMinis Supporting Member of TMP10 May 2017 11:43 a.m. PST

Actually, whatever color SWMBO chooses to wear. grin

awalesII10 May 2017 12:16 p.m. PST

Depends entirely on what is being worn, the event being attended, and the attitudes and comfort of the lady. I'm just happy they show up :)

Oberlindes Sol LIC Supporting Member of TMP10 May 2017 12:21 p.m. PST

Most of my female miniatures are in power armor or a utility uniform with long pants. I also have a few medieval-looking figures in long dresses or robes.

I have a few Star Trek OS looking figures that I haven't painted yet, and I'll try to remember this discussion when I get to them.

Other – Black Pants. They're the easiest paint. Especially with black shoes and flat black bases.

Well, since the OP is a woman and the question was asked sincerely, my preference is for black opaque tights. I wouldn't make it a demand, though. Just my preference.

Personal logo DWilliams Supporting Member of TMP10 May 2017 6:19 p.m. PST

B: tan, beige, suntan, etc. all look terrific, especially on a lovely lady like this one …

Saxondog10 May 2017 11:00 p.m. PST

A, B, C, D, or E? Hmmmm……. my answer…. YES

E. Whatever works best with whatever else she has chosen to wear.
