Agreed.....I’m in Soviet Seattle, the city which includes the University of Washington, the first Uni to offer degree programs in ‘womens’ studies’.
If a newspaper were to print something like that around here, the building would be burned to the ground and the author lynched and his head stuck on a pike at the entrance to a dyke bar.
There are at least a few other big UK papers which occasionally stray off the Leftist reservation ;-)
Why don’t you and an unshaven friend go into a dyke bar and order a couple of beers based on being thirsty? I and a friend walked into a Hell’s Angel’s bar and ordered a few beers. When those guys found out we were Active Duty we had nachos and a few pool games to go with the beers.
Wow..I'm in Seattle too, and attended the University of Washington AND actually took an introductory Women's Studies course there (I went through an embarrassing leftist "phase" in my late high school/early college years). I once sheepishly expressed my reservations about the anti-male tone of the materials...my grade in the class magically plummeted, seemingly irrespective of the classwork I turned in.
But that mindset truly is pervasive around here regionally, women of all age groups and occupations are convinced that sexism is everywhere around them...yet those same women are blind to the anti-male sexism that defines their very character.
