heh. I just remembered something I heard somewhere...This is directed to boys. "A man is the king of his castle. A king is a ruler. A ruler is twelve inches. Still think you're a man?" heh. I live for things like that.
A friend of mine once asked, if a man says something with no women around, is he still wrong? heh. I thought it was funny. I laughed. Does that mean I am a bad feminist?
Ahh boys, they think they know everything about women, and can say anything about women. Not all boys are a-holes. A lot of things that contribute to what boys say to girls are on tv. A lot of guys think they just need us for one thing. There is one thing I hate that boys do and that is that they try to rule over us. We all girls should know that guys are stronger than us, and thats about it. If boys ever say something sexists to us then that probably means their cowards. Like that old saying guys have two heads but only think with one head. Guys must be confused with their head up there. Its even more mess't up that they have a five letter word which people call a female dog. This is for girls that have been called that, guys are like that too, and they have no right to say something like that, its like calling there mother's that. Guys wouldn't like it if we talked about how small there you know what is so they shouldn't call us names, not just saying guys are the only ones who make sexists comments but come on guys, if you have any balls you wouldn't say mean things (like I just said), to girls!!
wow sweety you no nothign about me i''ve been in. from being kicked out of my school becyase of sarcasm, i think YOU are one of those people should i wouldn't be talking if i were you
hey narrow i have but 1 simple question? what gender gave birth to you? cause i'll bet it was a women so u r saying that all women should have been born men? well then we know that hmm yep 2 people would have been born adam and whoever else god made a guy.
Look, girls, if you hadn't been born as the inferior sex in the first place, guys wouldn't be bashing, taunting, or making fun of you.
Try to see things from their perspective; if you had been born male, everything would be OK, but noooo, you had to have it your own way and be born female, didn't you?
In response to EgyptianQueen69's quote: "Behind every great man, there's a woman"...how is that supposed to be a compliment? It is just saying that in front of every great woman there's going to be a man. The quote you cited is discouraging and tells one that in front of every woman there is going to be a great man. How does that work in favor of women everywhere?
That's in one of the Women's Literature teacher's classroom. She is one of the coolest, smartest persons I've ever met, and although I'm not really into the Bible, I love that line.
I suppose it depends to some extent in the spirit in which they're said, Joey, but jokes like that are sick. They aren't even jokes because they're not funny.
I've heard the ones about small feet before, blah blah blah whatever, but joking about domestic abuse is taking it way too far. I don't like it when people are overly politically correct either, but that's really sick.
When people tell jokes like that they're the ones that come off looking bad. Any girl I know would run a mile from a guy who made those kind of comments.
Unfortunately redjill, "respect" is politically correct.
People are so quick to say "Oh, please don't say that. You might offend them."
They were jokes. They made [some] people laugh. Get over it.
Sure, some "humor" is in bad taste when directed at a particular group of people, but geez, you can't go around expecting people to not say anything because it will "offend" them.
One more reason why society has become so degraded: everything that offends some group is funny. "Ah, it's just a joke... can't you take a joke? Why aren't you laughing??" );(
It's not political correctness. It's called respect.
