Marines Answer to Gun Control

Women are only good for one thing…

And half the time they’re not even good at that.

Brian, did you get sand in your vagina? That must be uncomfortable.

:wink:

I’m obviously alone on this, so I might as well depart the thread. But before I go, I’d like to make one point.

As has been noted, the story related here is MADE UP. It’s fictional. All of you who gloat over this woman who makes a “cheap shot,” and then gets burned for it, aren’t taking into account that this woman DOES NOT EXIST.

Your laughter isn’t in the defense of any principle against its cheapest detractors–you all know that this verbal exchange never occured–but more about an arrogant woman in the story who gets what’s coming to her. Isn’t that right? The joke only works because she is a woman.

I don’t mean any offense here to all of you, or to any individual poster. The tendency to find this story funny is in our nature as men, and I’m constantly fighting back my own strain of misogyny, often with not very good results. I hope I can work it out sooner rather than later because it’s likely that I will one day raise a daughter.

Anyway, I’m just offering an alternative way of looking at it. Maybe there doesn’t have to be as much alienation and coarseness and mutual objectification between the sexes as it appears from watching the exhibitionist loons on “Blind Date” or the photos at Abu Gharib.

“50,000 people per year are either killed or injured due to automobile accidents. Anyone want to ban cars?”

Wow, can’t argue with that flawless logic.
