"The earth is a woman and climate is never supposed to change!!!!!!!!!!"

Have you ever met a woman who didn't change? have moods? become irrational? emotional? had only 4 seasons in a year?

When were bikinis invented? gals must have been freezing when wearing them way back in the ice ages.

well in this case I can agree... Woman + Pissed off = Higher body Temperature. Which multiplied by the population of women on the planet, means higher atmospheric Temperature...

Solution... send them all to anger management seminars... THAT would cool the planet El’Pronto!!

‘That and the rights of women are very connected. So the people who want to suppress women, also want to pretend there is no climate crisis.

‘So if you suppress women, you suppress also some very strong voices about the climate crisis.’

So says a fantasy writer who wrote a silly book that was then used as a feminist tool and anti-Christian smear.

Would love to hear her answer to what caused the last ice age to end; or even what caused it in the first place.

Which side in the battle of the sexes is always complaining about the room being too cold? We're just turning up the world's thermostat for you, honey.

Well, you are not an attractive woman, with a very unfortunate hairdo.

Therefore your claims cannot be substantiated...

Those pushing the “Green New Deal” don’t want the public to see the racial “reparations” included within it; if “the environment” is all they can get some young whites to care about, then they’ll tack on race/gender reparations on as well - and silence any opposition to them.

It is amazing how the left has strayed increasingly into “white people problems” while normals are focused on earning a living/paying their bills.

She may be right, and there may be a connection.

It is the NEED to be “believed” in both of these crazy “movements”.

Henny Penny clucking that the sky is falling! It’s so old that fables are written.

That Blasey-Ford broad set the “women’s” movement back decades, since we were being expected to “believe” a blithering lunatic solely because she was a woman.

Women in general are not like the climate crisis; however, feminists are similar to tornadoes.

Atwood illustrates how people invent their reality as they live in the fantasy world of the Unicorn Farm. For them Unicorn poop is the elixir of life.

I don’t know. I don’t see the afterlife tab there and I’m pretty sure the UK isn’t it although I will conceded maybe purgatory. :)

If women are so afraid of globull warming, why are they always complaining about being too cold and demanding that the heat of the office or house be turned higher?
