This fucking town is like DRINKING KRYSTAL IN THE CLUB WITH BEYONCE.  Only when you snap out of it, you're NOT in the club, and that's NOT Beyonce, you're under an OVERPASS with RU PAUL AND 16 VALIUMED-UP THAI RENTBOYS.

None of you can possibly understand what this is like, so shut up.

I should be compensated for this.

That is all.  You may now return to shouting past each other in one of the many, many patriarchy threads that have been provided for your entertainment.

GURL, DON' BE HATIN' ON RU PAUL!

I'm not.  But it wasn't Beyonce.

Also, I have no idea where my clothes went.  You cannot possibly under...Um.

You're LMNO.  Of COURSE you understand.

Yes, because nobody has acknowledged at any point that anyone but women suffer for any reason but the patriarchy. :|

All snideness aside, you're absolutely right, nobody knows what you go through. For example, I personally found the glimpses of veteranhood you shared in this context fascinating, horrifying, touching, educating, not to mention deeply depressing (if for no other reason then because half my childhood friends have seen combat duty). I'm being dead-serious here.

But the collective experience of women forms a huge and important part of the picture of the human condition today,* a part that you and I have limited access to. I think it's vital to discuss it and for us non-women to educate ourselves about it as much as we can, not at the cost of appreciating other human experiences, but in addition to it. And I don't see why you have a problem with that.

*As does the collective experience of veterans, by the way, and I will drink up whatever you are willing to share, even though I definitely won't enjoy it. And I know you're not only a veteran, and don't mean to pigeonhole you; this is just an aspect of you that I'm picking out as a highly relevant, readily available example.

Suu

I was like, "Wow, that sounds like Providence."

Then I realized it was Tucson, being that the world is Tucson, especially Providence, I may know what you know, but not as much. I probably don't WANT to know. I can't handle too much TruthTM and HolyTM at the same time.

...by everyone's reactions I'm guessing I took this thread in totally the wrong way, huh?

At this point, I have a meeting to go to...But you can simulate a response by googling "GIANT RED BABOON ASS", and then post your arguments accordingly.  It will have the same general effect, as PD has managed to turn an important idea like Feminism into yet another DRUGS AND LIBERTARIAN thing.  Way to go.

Because God fucking forbid we have a bit of fun.  This is SRS BSNSS.  FOR SRS.

Chaser

Did RuPaul have a camera phone? Did one of the ladyboys tag you on fb?

So what are you even worried about, fossil?

What am I worried about?  I expect to be paid for that shit.  This is not North Korea.  No.  This is AMERICA, and I should be paid for passing on my high quality, field-tested STDs.  They're not your little microscopic shit that gets imported from China and can't stand up to antibiotics.  They are the size of GOLF BALLS and are covered in hair and tiny hooks, and blow the ends out of condoms like Goddamn firecrackers.

Richter

No one will ever know what it's like to be aggressively hit on by a tanked guidette at 10PM on Saturday while trying to pick up a fucking pizza.  I just wanted my damn food, and not have to weather her lewd suggestions that I "make it happen" from this spray tanned gucci skinned duckfacer.  It is not my fault that she got booted from all the "nice" restaurants in her excessively imbibed attempts to mate, and thinks that an unshaven bespectacled 30 year old in a warsaw pact coat looks like a reasonable idea.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:
