I think you’ve just neatly encapsulated the GOP approach to law making, the rest of the worldis out of order.

I think cute is pushing it a bit but I don’t think I find the original thing creepy the fact that he didn’t tell her for years :-/

For a while there I was worried by the level of political discourse in the states, glad to see eveyone’s now behaving like grown ups

Depressingly I don’t find that story even slightly surprising in fact I think it would be tough to find a woman who doesn’t have a similar story. It’s odd because these guys can’t actually be happy like that and the women they’re driving nuts certainly aren’t.

I’m sorry that happened to you, I think it happen to a depressing number of us hell I’ve done it to myself.

Seriously? What a collection of people randomly got together and went I know we’ll assassinate all the police? These people really are living on an entirely different planet.

You know the worst bit, I honestly think a lot of women believe they’re obligated to fuck guys like that. Guys are encouraged to be superficial assholes but if a woman chooses a guy based on physical attraction she’s a superficial bitch. It’s our responsibility to give’nice’ guys a chance!

Because the universe has taught them that they’re entitled to any woman they want and many women have been taught that if they worry about looks they’re shallow sub standard people.

That’s the one, thanks!

Oh I don’t think anyone sensible would disagree with that. We are more than a bit prone to making each others lives difficult. Personally I think it stems from a certain insecurity not uncommon in social groups who’ve been historically marginalised.

It does indeed, none of us win do we.

We really need to balance those leasons out a bit more.

? Sorry it’s a little late here and my brain has clearly packed up for the evening, run that one by me again.

Here’s hoping!

That’s a depressing post that makes a lot of good points. How can there be people who can’t see the massive damage a patriarchal system does?

Well even in the broad category of stupid facebook posts that’s pretty stupid!

I’m off to do some reading thank you! You I know it’s a cliche but patriachy does screw over everyone doesn’t it.

I wonder why? Do you think it’s that men are taught to squish their feelings down and therefore explode in a more horrible way obviously only a tiny percentage of men.

Doesn’t the constitution specifically say it doesn’t matter? You’re not allowed a religious test for elected office or words to that effect?

I love guys who are convinced women age worse, they always look 20 years older than they are because obviously they don’t have to take any care of themelves 20 year olds will just come running.
