So, Margaret Mitchell, Pearl Buck, Charlotte Bronte, Jane Austen, Eudora Welty, Daphne du Maurier, etc., etc. are oh, just average writers that could never match anything written by male writers?!?! Come on, you know better! I don't condone feminist bi---es, but can't condone your sad generalization either! Try again!

When my son was in HS I looked through his American history textbook. They listed women I've never heard of. When I read the details of these women they invented things that were so minor I realized it was to fulfill a quota:
"Gertrude McIntyre invented the ceramic pot handle so women wouldn't burn their hands."

You tell her to not forget or she's going back. She'll remember next time.

Did you graduate high school?!?! Have you heard of 'Gone with the Wind?' Guess who wrote it. Have you heard of 'Little Women?' A woman wrote it. Sounds like you didn't pay attention in class.

We've got 2 Chinese girls. They are both 2nd generation youngsters. Zach impressed the other one last week with my accent detection skills.
Me: "You're from the north but not New England or Mid West. What is it?"
Her: "Pennsylvania.
Me: "That's it, but not Philadelphia."
Her: "Scranton."

Why can't women write? It's because females cannot send and receive messages accurately. The information gets filtered through the female brain and becomes incoherent.


She's an idiot and so are you.

I feel the above is pretty concise and coherent.

Now go frick yourself,

A Woman

JK Rowling is the most overrated author in world history. The fact that she seems to regard herself as serious fiction makes it even worse.

Zach v conservativewifeymom!
Two of my favorite posters.
Zach living kryptonite to anything PC.
conservativewifeymom always keeping it real and never surrenders.

Well guys as an heterosexual male that's not dead yet, I will have to publicly side with conservativewifeymom. Come on guys she's conservative, she's a wife with playful overtones, and she's a mom.

But Zach, wink wink, nod nod.
