You mean like me, honor?
For party bard? Maybe. Which college you thinking?
Has it ever occurred to you that women have stopped showing up for general discussions here because of the sexism they invariably encounter?

I give Jersey Girl a lot of credit for trying to fight this. Insinuating there is something wrong with her for showing up to do that is really tone-deaf.

You haven't changed a bit. :D

But yes, the horrible sexism. Atlanticmike and Binger deserve capital punishment.
So you think that male posters should call me a bitch?

No. It's obvious they don't have any balls in real life, a real man never insults a woman like that.

I am sorry you are being treated that way.

But just ignore them, they are real life dumb and dumber.

It's not the first time Marcus blames sexism for the fact that there are more men than women here.

I don't think it has to do with sexism, but maybe I am wrong.

That's because you aren't aware of how many female posters there used to be here, Dt.

Hugh Nibley claimed he bumped into Adolf Hitler, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Gertrude Stein, and the Grand Duke Vladimir Romanoff. Dishonesty is baked into Mormonism.

If you got your high school yearbook signed in the 1960's, sooner or later someone would write:

Have a bitchin' summer!

It meant cool, as in, that's a bitchin' shirt. It was a unisex adjective. Not to be confused with bitching, which we all know means complaining, and is also unisex.

Very versatile word.
