January/February LD Debate resolved

Right so since my opponent forfeited I will just extend some points then give voters. ==Extensions== Extend my Framework because he doesn't provide his own framework nor does he rebut mine. The Value for this round is Justice. The Value Criterion is to reduce oppression. Whoever better reduces oppression wins the round. Now extend my Clarke 1 card which states In male fantasy, women are always powerless to defend themselves from hurt and humiliation. Worse, they enjoy them. Treatment that would drive the average self-respecting man to desperate violence makes these fantasy-women tremble, breathe heavily, and moan with desire: abuse and embarrassment are their secret needs. The "womanliness" invented by pornographers is a deep masochism, which renders women as powerless to defend self and others as the sweetness-and-light female patience and martyrdom of Christian romanticism. It's but a short step from the ladylike and therefore ineffectual face-slaps of Nice Girls to the "hot and steamy surrender" in the dominant male's brawny embrace. This argument functions in 2 ways. 1 it shows the oppressive view of women by society because women are seen as "weak and masochistic" by society. 2 my opponent bites directly into this in his response to my 1st contention where he states "In fact, society treats females as being more feminie and as such actually focuses more attention on the wrongdoings that have happened to females." This view of women is oppressive and will end when we affirm. Now extend Clarke 2 which states There are several ways to prevent crimes from happening. One is education and reason, and our effort to bring up children to be good adults. Then comes elementary preparedness and awareness on the part of the innocent. Then there is active resistance and self-defence when a crime is attempted; lastly, there is the establishment of consequences for the perpetrator. Every time a man molests his daughter and still keeps his place in the family and community--every time a man sexually harasses a female employee and still keeps his job or his business reputation--every time a rapist or femicide gets a token sentence--there is a terrible lack of consequence for the commission of a crime. This clearly shows there is a lack of consequence for a crime due to these "alternatives" failing. The only way to eradicate this view is through affirming. Now Clarke 5 is already extended but re-extend it. Clarke 5 says If women become more violent, will the world be a more violent place? Perhaps, but it's not a simple equation of addition. We will have to subtract any violence that women prevent. So we will have to subtract a large number of rapes and daily humiliations suffered by women who today cannot or will not defend themselves. We might have to subtract six or seven murders that would have been committed by a latter-day Zodiac Killer, except that his first intended victim killed him instead. It's not as if we were suggesting that women introduce violence into the Garden of Eden. The war is already on. Women and children are steadily losing it. This argument clearly shows how we decrease violence as a result of women defending themselves violently which links directly back into the V.C of Reducing oppression. We are allowing the abused to liberate themselves from harmful wrongdoers. Now for the BIG ONE. This extension says it all. Extend Clarke 4, Clarke 4 is going to be the BIGGEST voter in this round it says. If women defended themselves violently, the amount of damage they were willing to do to would-be assailants would be the measure of their seriousness about the limits beyond which they would not be pushed. If more women killed husbands and boyfriends who abused them or their children, there would be less abuse. A large number of women refusing to be pushed any further would erode, however slowly, the myth of the masochistic female which threatens all our lives. This card clearly shows how when women defend themselves violently they would erode the myth of them being weak and masochistic. This card abolishes the oppression of how society views women as well as how my opponents statement views women. ==Voters== 1. The first major voter is the Frame Work debate, which I have won. 2. The second major voter is the turn coming out of the NR. The turn shows how my opponent recognizes the oppression created by society. 3. The third major voter is Clarke 1 which only further shows how oppressive society is to females. 4. The fourth major voter is Clarke 5, which shows how we WILL reduce oppression when we affirm because the total net violence will decrease. 5. The MAJOR reason to vote pro is Clarke 4 which talks about the oppression on the highest level. The oppression of societies view of women. Clarke 4 shows how through affirming we reduce this overall amount of oppression which links directly into the Frame Work of Reducing Oppression. For these reasons I urge an Affirmative vote. Thanks to MasterKage so much for the GREAT debate round I look forward to another debate round with you ^.^ and thanks to the voters reading this and voting. Means a lot. :D
