Oh yeah, I totally reported it. My doctor is one of the top guys in the City and he was HORRIFIED.

I had a hysterectomy a bunch of years ago, and the night nurse was SO MEAN to me, I couldn't believe it. I was in pain and I asked her when I was allowed more meds and she said "every four hours". And I asked when that would be and she told me to "look a the clock". WTF? I had to point out that (a) I was asleep…
Baked Oatmeal is a very nice make-on-Sunday and grab-n-go all week breakfast:
IHOP. Chicken fried steak with a side of pancakes. And a milkshake, because, hey, if you are gonna spend the rest of the day lying on the couch groaning and hoping your heart doesn't explode, you might as well go all the way.
Mashed potatoes! Substitute milk/cream/butter for a tub of 2% Greek. Awesome.
I made pumpkin cheesecake with the Greek Yogurt/Creamcheese combo stuff and it was FAN.TAS.TIC. I used the bars, not the whipped spread. Seriously, better than with straight cream cheese. It had a light tangy thing going on that was unbelievably delicious.
I got to sit next to an adorable 8 year old flying alone once! We chatted the entire flight; at the end, I was tempted to kidnap her and bring her home with me. I loved that kid.
I've done that! I was on a super bumpy flight and started freaking out and GRABBED my seatmate's arm and held on tight. Dude was very very nice about it and chatted about easy stuff in a very soothing voice through the whole thing. I think he was kinda chuffed, actually.
I'm with you on the window seat. If you sit in the aisle, everyone who walks by TOUCHES YOU! Gack! I'll happily trade for another window, but no way to middle or aisle.
Sometimes I wear sexy outfits when I go out with my boyfriend. It is a signal to him that there's a very good chance he's gettin' lucky. HOWEVER, it does not mean that I want to have sex with every single man who sees me. I don't understand why this seems to be such a difficult concept for people to get.
I used to get harassed all the time, and then I turned about 32. Then, I became invisible to white men and only got harassed by black and latino guys. Now that I'm pushing 50, I get smiled at and get very respectful comments ("have a nice day!", "I love your hair!") but never the gross hissing thing, no one tells…
Ha! I did explain that in the olden days, if you wanted to know who was calling you, you had to ANSWER THE PHONE.
I had a friend who refused to convert to Windows from DOS. Called it the "Disco Interface"
I remember how exciting it was when they invented answering machines and call waiting.
My niece got one. I told her that she should have saved her money and effort and gotten a hairbrush and glued it to a brick.
Um, in your scenario, the problem is that "men treat women like dirt" by raping, assaulting or killing them. "Women treat men like dirt" by not wanting to have sex with some dude who thinks he is entitled to sex with anyone he decides he wants.
You could also consider making yourself more attractive - women are not as visual as men and often date men who are not conventionally good looking (even ones who aren't rich).
Times have changed and words have changed.
Oh, FFS .... yes, there are people who are grossly sexist who may or may not be liberals. HOWEVER, liberals consider these people to be random wack jobs. They are not television hosts, they are not congressmen or political leaders and they don't have high salaried radio jobs. They are random wack jobs and are…
From his manifesto, it seems to me that he had no understanding at all about how relationships work or how people get dates. It sounds like he thought that he just had to be decent looking and dressed nicely, and then go out in public where hot blonde girls would see him, find him attractive and walk over to him and…
