Who's Tired of Pink? Posted January 11, 2008 | 11:45 AM (EST)
I am so tired of pink men bombing brown children and rationalizing it as fighting terrorism. I am so tired of pink men telling women (of all colors) what to do with their wombs--which connect with their brains--in case you forgot. I am so tired of pink men telling us we should stay in Iraq for generations. I am so tired of pink men buying bombs and cheating schools. I am so tired of pink men having wives who stand behind them and nod sagely on television. I am so tired of pink men expecting that someone--a brown, black, yellow or white woman--will trail behind them changing light bulbs, taking out garbage, washing laundry, keeping food in the house, taking care of kids of all ages, of parents of all ages. I am so tired of pink men whose wives double or triple the family income thinking they can spend it without doing a damn thing at home. I am so tired of pink men spouting nonsense on TV. I am so tired of pink men arguing, blathering, bloviating, predicting the future--usually wrongly--and telling women to shut up. I am so sick of hearing that another pink man has dropped his children out a window, off a bridge or killed his pregnant wife or killed his unpregnant wife because he was infatuated with another pregnant woman. I am so sick of pink men making war and talking about peace. I am so sick of pink men appointing their mediocre cronies to judgeships, to political advisors, to cushy jobs, to columns in the paper, to multimillion-dollar posts as CEOS or actors (while the actresses make less) or producers or writers or newsreaders or talk show bloviators or supposedly sage counselors at law. I am so tired of pink men.

Don't tell me about women who kill. I know there are some--but fewer. So let's just remember our mothers--who bore us, protected us against our fathers and grandfathers and all the pink or brown men who wanted to rape us or kill us or starve us because we were girls.
I am not stupid. I know all generalizations are false. I know there are bad mothers, bad women, bad sisters, bad aunts, and bad females of every stripe. But I have seen enough men in high office to last a lifetime.
Let's give women a chance!
She’s ugly.
Nasty. Hideous.
The sort of ugly that doesn’t really come from phisical appearances, but shines through all externalities to reveal the angry, small-souled, bitter, psychopathic, ankle-biting, carpet-chewing, bilious, vitriolic dried-up husk of what once was human, but is now just a screeching harpy.
She’s a perfect advocate for the Hillary! campaign.
Louisiana gave a woman a chance. Governor Blanco, remember?
Along came one crisis, and she broke down to the point where thousands were in danger because of her dithering and inaction.
So... do people really want more of *that*? I think not.
And, don’t forget she cried!!!! We got what we deserved with that idiot.

It's interesting contrasting Jong's two sentences above. She champions abortion which has killed more brown children than any other single cause in the last 100+ years and rationalizes it as a choice.
It is truly the mark of every great writer ‘in litany mode’
to begin every sentence with ‘I am so tired of——’
This is racism, and should properly be regarded with contempt.
Wheaten men? WTF?
I thought Jong was dead. Alzheimers perhaps?
You might remind your boss that his paycheck is covered by your Christian, heterosexual, white, family-oriented butt.
Two rules in any office....Don't make the computer techs mad, and give the sales guys what they want.
Have you considered looking for a new position? :-)
That was actually the first thing that popped into my head, but then things took a Star Trek twist.
As I recall, it was brown men bombing white men, women and children on 9-11.
My guess is that when it breaks, they're the ones that come fix it, as well. And, she likely makes exceptions for them ("They're one of the *good* ones!).
I suspect Mizz Jong is one of those who think Bush/Cheney/Rove & Co. steered the planes into the WTC with remote controls and then finished the job with controlled detonations. I'd bet the farm on it, in fact.
Well, sometimes we just have to go where our whimsical imaginations take us. :-)
EJ is damaged and has issues. She was raised by a mother who hated motherhood and I’m thinking her father wasn’t so hot either.
With that being said, because her lens of life is so skewed, her writing is equally funky-— and by going 180o from most of what she says, you’ll find the truth.
The guy who dropped his kids off the bridge is Vietnamese.
Time to take away the right to vote of women, if this is what women are coming to.
Erica Jong is NUTS!!!
You forgot a major “BARF ALERT” on this one! ;-)
As for me, I’m tired of Erica Jong, and I’ve barely read a word she’s written. At times I wonder if giving women education and suffrage was really such a good idea after all. lol
If you are in San Francisco, you are the ONLY two STRAIGHT CHRISTIAN Married men in the whole CITY, not just in your little company!!! Your boss just wonders how the ONLY two such men ended up working for HIM!!
Not just Blanco is incompetent, but Jennifer Granholm of Michigan has made a HUGE mess there too!
