American Thinker: Extolling the Female Tongue
2006-12-17
Although this is primarily a fun piece (Warning: Werdsmith at Werk) there are serious ramifications to the underlying truth... The PCism that prevails, that underpins the social points he lampoons, are deadly. Social suicide is in progress and it's fucking time for both sides to back the fuck off and let Wymyns be Wymyns and Myns be Myns. It's Nature's Way. Okay, I'm done. As you were. Lol. Enjoy.
A long time ago I read a short online piece about how women could get their men to put the toilet seat down. Inherent in it was the idea that this was an example of menÂ’s lack of consideration and that the task at hand was one of disciplining these bad boys. I donÂ’t know, my attitude is that if women can leave a toilet seat down, men can leave it up.

Of course, this is just a silly, pebble-in-the-shoe issue, but I see it as a metaphor for a modern phenomenon: The casting of womenÂ’s characteristic behaviors as the norm and menÂ’s as dysfunctional deviations.

This is strikingly obvious with the topic of “communication.” Man has long known that women were the more loquacious sex, and you’ve probably heard of studies to this effect. A recent book states that women have about 20,000 “communication events” (I love these terms the psycho-babblers conjure up) a day, versus about 7,000 for men. But this is nothing new; who didn’t know a bevy of garrulous girls in school?

#8  The world's shortest fairy tale;
A man asked a woman to marry him.
She said 'No.'
He lived happily ever after.

#7  PS: Someone should set up Ms. Irmler with Gene Simmons. They could French each other from across the room.

#6  Nothing makes you leave the toilet lid down faster than living with a wolf hybrid who thinks that toilet water is Dom fucking Perignon.

The casting of womenÂ’s characteristic behaviors as the norm and menÂ’s as dysfunctional deviations.

Somewhere along the path to universal suffrage women became a new "minority". It should be no surprise then that all things white and male should be subjected to the wrong-at-all-times self-loathing rule.

As to the less is more bullshit. Didn't we all hear this little addage about the superior aspects of Japanese culture and management style? Are we supposed to live in shoebox houses and be forcibly packed into our subway cars like sardines? Didn't we eat Japan's bento box for a midnight snack over a decade ago?

White man's burden is rapidly becoming white male's burden.

#5  "Men" who give in to the "always put the toilet seat down" directive, really should be sitting down to take aleak, also...

#4  My wife and I made an agreement even before marriage. It's really a no brainer.

#2  Down, before you flush. Particles of water (and whatever is in the water..ahem) are ejected into the air during a flush....think about it

Everyone puts the lid down when finished. It's simply right on all accounts.
