If that is so sing Derry down Derry, its evident very our tastes are one, Away we’ll go and merrily marry, nor tardily tarry ‘til day is done!
Tell her your hero is Tarl Cabot, and then give her a Gor novel to read.
I believe this to be the best advice you’re going to get here. Perhaps she and two or three of her “sisters” would be willing to demonstrate for you exactly how unnecessary men can be. Then you can jump in and demonstrate how useful we really are. You know, by painting the house, mowing the lawn, that sort of thing.
What the fuck is she doing out of the kitchen?
So she dislikes the current government and thinks current policies undercut the progress made in the sixties and seventies. Whoop-de-friggin’-do. I think you guys are reading a little too much into this.
Oh, no! A female feline has intruded into our Guy Thread!! :eek:
Man the barricades!!
Look down! Look down!
They’re wearing skimpy tops!
Look down! Look down!
“Dude, I see her socks!”
Sorry, Les Mis hit me…
The best answer to feminism is “Why don’t you get me a beer, alright toots?”
Quite frankly I’m disappointed with my patriarchal hegemony it hasn’t done all that much good in keeping women down.
Hell they couldn’t even keep women from posting in this thread. I guess they don’t make patriarchal hegemonies like they used to.
Funny one of my best friend talks in terms like that (she’s a anarchist punk) but I think even she wouldn’t put that in her first email to someone even if that person believed in things like that.
The last time I tried that line, I got, “Beer now, no lovin’ tonight.”
Worlds are colliding!
The best answer to this is “Oh yeah, baby, I’m all about females. Can’t get enough of 'em. Wanna come over and clean my apartment? Afterwards we’ll talk about my bedroom policies. You’ve got big tits, right?”
Dames!
Where’d a skirt like HER learn them 10 dollar words, anyhoo?
quote:
… I think that the current government, and its imposition of its own extremely conservative views has contributed to increasing disempowerment of women, and it makes me really angry.
Oh, sweetie, don’t worry your pretty little head about it!
I agree with Coldfire. It’s a test. Maybe she’s a political whack job, but she could also be a canny babe screening out people who lacks brains or backbone.
I suggest sending her a message along these lines:
"Well, I don’t know what you mean by feminist. I’m not part of the government. I’m a pretty fair-minded guy and I firmly believe in the equality and empoerment of all humans, women or men, black or white. I’d love to discuss politics with you if you’re open to a good discussion.
But in the meantime, why don’t we break the ice with a few jokes? I’ve got one: How many feminists does it take to screw in a light bulb?"
If she comes back with the right punchline you’ve got a winner.
Umm… what is the right punchline?
Answer: “That’s not funny!”
Forward her a few Bukowski jokes.
He asked it wrong…the joke goes, “Why does it take 4 feminists to screw in a lightbulb?”
IT JUST DOES, GODDAMMIT!!!
Forward her a few Charles Bukowski quotes.
Feminists don’t screw in lightbulbs, they screw in…unh…ah…
Damn, I forget.
First you let em put shoes on and leave the kitchen, then they start using the big words. Man, for the days when a good sock in the mouth would put an end to this backtalk.
I gotta go, I can feel glares from my girlfriend.
