A Portland-based Ducati dealer MotoCorsa did a photo shoot with a lovely lady named Kylie and a Ducati 1199 Panigale, we passed on running the photos. Then something interesting happened: MotoCorsa did a follow-up photo shoot, this time with men from around the shop, recreating the shots from the photo shoot with Kylie. Perhaps not the most flattering photos we’ve ever seen, it is however a delicious role-reversal, not to mention showing some good humor from the gentlemen involved.

here are some of the pictures.

I respect women, but I think they should be home with the family, doing house chores, online schooling, watching T.V, reading a magazine, taking care of the kid, and let the man go work (as traditionally is).. This is how me and my wife do it.

And this is what keeps families together and functional. I have first-hand experience of what happens when the wife thinks she should be in control, and the ensuing power-struggle is never a good thing for a little kid, especially if there's cussing and yelling (maybe even hitting) involved.

Conservatism doesn't necessarily mean "racism" or bigotry, I know many conservatives whom are not racist or bias, but yet they don't support homosexuality and feminism.

This is what makes America unique, you can find this good things.


Are you really from Svalbard ? or Mainland Norway? I would expect you to be from Sweden, which is more feminist?

conservatism literally means abiding the old structures, policies, ideas.(like slavery)
but w/e live and let live is my policy but apparently it's not yours. According to you I belong in the kitchen.
therefore, fuck off.

Missy, you overate thinks pretty hard! :) That's maybe the reason why you created this thread about this "Topic Number 123443215 only feminists care". :)

The constitution is just a piece of paper. Like all constitutions. There has to be a power behind it who protects the constitution. This is not the case in America.
Ending of slavery? :lol: Nobody cared for the Africans! Lincoln was the greatest liar in American history, his only luck was to get shot! He didn't care for any African, he just wanted to conquer the South. He had no right to do this. But the South was too rich and the Wall Street didn't like this. THAT'S why the Slaves had to be released! Killing South Americans, killing Indians, victimize thousands of his own troops and let the now free but work less Africans starve to death.

What a great revolution!

Why get like that : 0 ?? I never said you did, it's anyone's choice to do so! including yourself..

Its just that in my opinion, female and male have their own unique duties. Naturally guys have been the leaders and stronger ones, and females the more social ones.

There are things my wife will do, that I could never do the same way, do you see what I mean ? :/ nothing personal ok

I heard anyone from any country can pretty much go there without having to have Norwegian residential permit. Is pretty much a free zone with very low taxes,

What a great revolution! You are actually somewhat right about Lincoln, the main reason for him issuing the Proclamation was so that Britain wouldn't enter the war on the side of the South.

That's not true. Iceland had a constitution 1874.

And maybe you read a book first before you talk about history. Way more useful than criticise "sexist" problems that just exist for you.

America's constitution was the first to outline specific limitations of government and the rights of citizens in great detail. Like she said, not comparable.

And never the less, it's just a piece of paper. Like today.

this is sexist towards men because it implies we can't appreciate the bike for its performance and we only think about sex, which is not true.

Just because you can't afford to drive a good car you don't need to blame men for everything. Women like you give women like us bad reputation.
