The kinds of justification used for the nerd rage by anti-feminist Whovians are particularly precious, since they tend to fall along the following lines:

I try to frame it by saying that it upsets me exactly because we need a group like PETA, but one that's a hell of a lot more sane. Most of their core issues with how domesticated animals are treated I think are perfectly legitimate, and this is coming from an unapologetic carnivore here.

Even the good people don't necessarily get rewarded, and the bad ones certainly don't always get punished. For example, all of Edward's dickish relatives in Sense & Sensibility end off smug, happy and rich. It always bugged me when I read it as a kid (and now, too).

That's rather a false dichotomy, don't you think? Why can't a person be grateful for what is good about her situation while also seeking to recognize and change what is bad?

I was under the impression that the public's pubic grooming habits were already turned towards a "less is more" before Sex and the City. Carrie and Co. may have talked about stuff of TV we didn't see used to see women talking about on TV, but they didn't pioneer those conversations. Jokes about Brazilian waxes only…

I was touched when he refers to the women he has never gotten to know because they didn't fit his specifications. I know many women struggle with this every day. Our message, our worth, our contribution is hidden behind other people's external expectations. trying to prove yourself every day and overcome the exterior…

Because PETA is to animal rights what the Westboro Baptist Church is to the teachings of Jesus.

I'm going to start this, read away if you want.

God, fuck PETA so hard. I get that pragmatism is a thing when it comes to no-kill shelters, but PETA doesn't even fucking try and never did. This stupid fucking philosophy of "no animal should be a pet" can go to hell.

Its too big of a money making scheme now. ingrad is rolling in dough and isn't going to let her cash cow get taken away now. 7 million dollars from killing animals and objectifying women.

Thank you. It is absolutely beyond belief that roughly 90% of the animals brought to PETA's "shelter" (which isn't one - they don't have the facilities to house the animals they take in) are all beyond hope. They have admitted that they kill adoptable animals. While today they may have a clean and presentable room for…

PeTA kills the animals they take in almost immediately with little opportunity or effort to adopt them out. There have been reports of bags full of dead puppies and kittens being dumped by PeTA into garbage bins of businesses, perfectly adoptable animals killed for no reason aside from the mantra "animals shouldn't be…

Have a PDF of data released under Virginia's sunshine laws.

PETA is an organization without ethics.

I think that reading up on this man would be important. PETA is not a friend to domesticated animals. For real, that's not their bag. And they completely slight the people working in the no-kill community who are long time shelter folks. http://www.nathanwinograd.com/?tag=no-kill-a… He makes some great points.

Their version of suffering may differ from yours, however. They don't believe that animals should be pets at all, so to them euthanasia is nearly always the preferable option to adoption. They euthanize 80-90% of their adoptable animals. That's aside from the ones that are suffering some injury or disease that might…

Cool! A new list of things I can feel bad about not having done!

If Walker really believes that this is essential to women's health, he would have signed that bill in daylight, in front of a room full of women.
