1. Or if she succeeds at something, she's 'ambitious'.

And that's a negative?

4. I have noticed that I can ask nicely many times...

But the time he listens is when I get that “shrill” in there. Then I’m a nag. 🤷🏼‍♀️

7. Face it, we can never when with them.

If I hear about a "man cave" one more time I will lose it. The whole fucking world is one giant man cave or a "he-man woman haters club". Climate Change or a meteor will kill us all before the sexes are ever treated equally by all societies.

10. sometimes I wonder about how to

seal up those mancaves. If there is a toilet, beer, pizza, etc along with the tv, they may not notice they've checked in but can never leave.

11. Ha! That is what happened on a Murphy Brown rerun last night.

Jim's wife put a padlock on the door while he was in his workshop (he was on a leave of absence) so she could have an hour of peace since he had been driving her nuts.

8. I've NEVER called a woman "shrill" at any time.

I respect every individual. REGARDLESS.

People that think women are inferior or people of color are somehow less "human" ..
ARE INGNORANT FUCKING IMBECILIC ASSHOLES.
Period.

9. Women may have to show the way.

With so much in play, I sense a real opportunity for women to show what they can do, and have done, to make a difference.

12. It's all just ...

"uppity women thinking they're people" ñ'est-ce pas?

I am so sick of the good old boy's club. When do we get to dig their graves?
