Satire, right?

Nope. Women have it tough, men have it easy. Take 207.

I quit Burger King when they made sodomy burgers. A new one opened nearby, so I tried it a couple of times and it was poorly run from day one. Now, they’re back into politics and the ban is escalated to permaban.

so now, Burger King is going liberal on us?

Or bending over backwards, to prove they are down with the struggle, they are part of the sisterhood, all that stuff?

I just want a burger, not a lecture about social/economic inequality delivered from the leftist point of view.

This probably means they’re about to go bankrupt and this is a last ditch effort to drag in some customers.

I am not sure if it is trendy but I have heard women call each other the b-word recently and not meant in a confrontational way. A synonym for friend.

Sort of like the N word for blacks.

Remember that black comedian who called Obama “my nigger” at a public White House event? That was ok.

Black rappers freely use that vile word in their lyrics, and that’s ok.

If burger king took a portion of its whoppers and rebranded and repackaged them as Whoppers for women selling them as a separate product, its not going to magically be free to do so. Thats the same reason ‘women’s products’ are more expensive.

I have known women, who buy men’s blue jeans. They say they fit better. Who am I to take issue with that? I don’t know if men’s jeans are cheaper than women’s jeans.

Scratch another one off my list. If I want to support a chick I will go to Chick-Fil-A.

So it’s ok now for chic-fil-a to publicly support heterosexual marriage as the only true marriage.

there’s even a pink tax on condiments. My other half goes for fastfood, half the bag is extra condiments. I go, and I’m lucky to get ONE pack of ketchup for two orders of fries.
