Who says feminists don't have a sense of humor?
Over at the NOW store, a shirt with the enticing lead-in of "similar to one worn by Christina Aguilera," (available in sizes Chlamydia, Herpes, Syphilis and Xtra Syphilis) bears the slogan "A man of quality is not threatened by a woman for equality."
It's labeled as "humor."
Laugh, man-pigs, laugh!

Posted by: tfhr at March 9, 2006 11:43 PMYou must have seen a typo. "SMALL" is normally listed as "BITTER."
Posted by: Donnah at March 9, 2006 11:53 PMOh Brother!!
The only humor involved is that they take themselves and their blather so seriously.
"Feminism is the radical notion that women are people."
Really? Does that include all females regardless of age? If so, how can NOW ride the abortion on demand bandwagon, including partial birth? Isn't that then killing women and therefore people? Or is that OK as long as those people have not demonstrated the proper left/progressive outlook?
I don't really care which way you want it, but you can't have it both ways - pick one.
Dear NOW: I have a news flash for you - you are not the profound thinkers, and _certainly_ not the edgy radicals you think you are. You are angry windbags with NO backbone.
If NOW really was the radical bunch they want everyone (includung themselves) to think they are, they would be spreading the message that women are people in Tehran and Riyadh where it really would be revolutionary. You see, if you want to be a revolutionary, you need to peddle your doctrine where it really _is_ revolutionary, and not the acceptd norm.
But, that would be dangerous, wouldn't it? After all, look how pisseed they get over a cartoon. These people are ultimate "limousine liberals" - Talk lots of trash and take no real risk. Only attack people that will tolerate you. As the bumper sticker noted: "More people are against fur than leather because its easier to attack rich women than motorcycle gangs." How true. The "radicals" are willing to throw red paint on some woman's mink on 5th Avenue, but you never see those people show up at Stugis with a bucket of Dutch Boy, do you? Same crap from NOW (and many of the same people involved, no doubt).
Get a life.

So true.

Jay Leno, Letterman, et al are out of business as soon as these hit the streets.

Is good Kepitalist-style humor, da, Comrade?
Posted by: Mark from Monroe at March 14, 2006 02:37 PMDon't know why the trackback kept pinging.
Posted by: Scott at March 15, 2006 08:37 AMTrackback pings are weird.
You did TB the wrong post though. That doesn't anybody much good, so I've removed them.
