I bought that book, btw.

You're an idiot. Move on.

I'm going with allegedly.

I read somewhere that "syphilis" is a great word because of that but I googled it and can't find the original reference!

Hey, thanks. I wasn't sure if it would be worth reading after seeing only this excerpt.

I'd def say it's worse than manipulation (although that's certainly part of it, it seems). People who are critical thinkers/feminists/generally nice people do not aggressively respond to your inquiry with ridicule:

Maybe this is too low end since you want something nice but I'm always surprised by the selection at Fredrick's of Hollywood (don't laugh) but I can't shop there b/c a lot of it has no support but I've looked a lot and have thought some was nice.
