All I can say is "Rock Chalk Jayhawk!"

"Surely you must realize that by sending your daughters to an Ivy league school, you will be immersing them in everything that is the antithesis of Christianity. "

Very true. And, if parents of girls want nice, young men for their daughters, there are parents of nice, young men who want nice, young women for their sons. That street goes both ways.

Ya know, I am convinced that the word SKANK was coined with these types in mind.

The trouble is, SKANKHOOD is being sold to our children everywhere, starting at younger and younger ages. I really don't want to send my kids to a college where a SKANK writes this stuff in the college newspaper. College administrators have lost their ability and will to discern.

Another headline from the University Daily Kansan--really, no joking!

Viagra's to aid building's erection

Quite often, especially with liberal State colleges and universities, this can be loosely translated with just one word:

Whore.

My thoughts, exactly. I wouldn't touch this whore with a 10-foot pole, much less get intimate with her (Which is pretty much the same thing as touching her with a 10-foot pole. LOL!).

KU's J-School is way overrated, much like Columbia. The one thing that they do well there is prepare people well who will get into the advertising business. Otherwise, the typical things associated with journalism such as investigtive reporting and such are a joke. One is not taught to get the facts and present them to the audience, but rather they are taught to "make a difference", which usually involves pushing some a liberal agenda.

[Don Myers]

Ugggg.....sure.......well.......yeah.....alright.....ok...I'm speechless.

College administrators have lost their ability and will to discern.

Unless of course, they're skanks, too.

I'm not being facetious. I have witnessed these types smear & denigrate feminine ladies.
I believe it spawned from the 'women's liberation movement'. And I believe these types have a genuine animosity, as well as envy, towards the true ladies out there.

You're right. True ladies are a threat to them, because it reminds them of everything good and wholesome and wonderful about womanhood - and about everything they aren't and have given up.

[Temple Owl]

Please excuse my ignorance, but I never heard the word SKANK. Are you allowed to defined it on a family-oriented thread?

[Temple Owl]

Be certain that all your buddies approve too, because they will also want to light that "firecracker."

"I was owning and operating my vagina long before I knew what I was doing with it," she says.

Honey, it isn't industrial equipment. It's only accidental that you can drive a Mac truck through it...

[ArrogantBustard]

I took a chance on dictionary.com and came up with an actual definition of Skank.

AB

[Temple Owl]

Thank you. It is a very good definition.

[yendu bwam]

I think it was jla who brought this word up - and it is highly appropriate. A skank - someone who is slimily sexual, uses her body repeatedly and indiscriminately like a sexual rag - and usually carries a few choice sexual diseases.

[xsmommy]

hey, i believe her.....

[Marysecretary]

Looks like daddy got her started with his Playboy mags. It's a generational thing! The apple didn't fall too far from the tree. Too bad. I wonder what daddy says about this?

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

SKANK: Madonna without the money.

It's only been 10 years since I graduated from college (majoring in journalism). Because of my course, I wrote a lot for the college newspaper...but there is NO WAY our Dean would have allowed anything of that ilk to be published. We were more interested in political/current affairs, lifestyle features, and other issues. Of course, all of us are now working in the industry professionally. I can't see too many real life newsroom editors being too impressed with 'filth' in a portfolio.
