Re: Who the hell do you think you are?!
OK. You're done now. I'm stopping this scrap. You can have it elsewhere.

"reverse mysogyny"
Well, that's an interesting reading of it. I think the women are more or less equally fallible and there's no suggestion that Homer is somehow in thrall to matriarchy, but if that's how you see it, I'll look forward to your paper on the matter.
And you mean 'misandry'. Sounds like it might be a handy word for you to incorporate into your vocabulary. You're welcome.
Why would you think I automatically know about shoes, Jake?
You can get platform stilettos. The platform bit is at the front. The stiletto bit is at the back. I know this not because I'm a girl and obsessed with shoes but because I have sufficient awareness of the world, and of shoes, to figure this out. And also Google told me.
I was going to post a link here but I didn't want y'all to get too het up.
I'm letting this through so I don't have to deal with any whinings about rejection, but for fucksakes stop using the ridiculous non-word 'sheeple'. It gives me a twitch. You're articulate enough to be able to put your point without resorting to that. I think it might be the nadir of language at present - it makes the misuse of 'random' sound like poetry.
Please stop, then. Thanks.
I don't have a source to hand (wait a few minutes and I'm sure others will chuck some in your direction - I'd look but I've got 400 of you little sods to moderate at this point), but it's pretty common knowledge that girls outperform boys throughout school, at least. Isn't it? It has been for years. It's always cited around exam time. It's not exactly controversial, as you apparently think it is - although they haven't figured out why this is the case.
Don't be daft. It's OK to give a shit about these things inbetween giving a shit about all the others. You can't rank everything in order of ultimate importance.
It's very glib to suggest animal issues get more attention than human ones - people just come out with that when they want to wring their hands over how no one cares about what they should. Except that they do. Just not everything all at once. If you did that you couldn't get out of bed for angst.
You figured it out on some level, didn't you? If you express an opinion, that's one thing, but making rash declarations of what should happen to people is another. See?
Beer always good. The rest of you - I'm not getting into a discussion about this and if you try and post anything limit-testing, I will zap you till you can't sit down.
Believe what you like, post what you like, it's not always going to get through. Refer to the comment guidelines. There's more than one moderator and we use our own discretion. It's not complicated. Sorry if you feel it's unfair on occasion. Wording is crucial and we are bound by UK libel law... and I'm not gonna lose my job over someone who thinks they're an expert making some wild accusation, so I'm careful, y'know?
I am pleased it's Friday. Two whole days with one less worry.
Oh honestly, you lot are the *limit*.
'Blogging'? Just because it's on the internet doesn't make it a blog, you know.
If it makes any difference to any of you, I wrote the headline and sub-head. Also, I have never seen Bill in a compromising situation with an iPhone. In case you've forgotten - we have a pop at everyone. Just not at the same time.
