Nov 2013

about a story I read online. It wasn't intended as some sort of deep, introspective thread about supposedly sexist language that has managed to offend nobody but you so far. If you're interested, there is a companion site to this one where you can go and trash the men too.

Sounds like a source of employment for lawyers. nt bemildred Nov 2013 #1
I thought about that too. NaturalHigh Nov 2013 #2
Yes, but I expect enough money could help your case. bemildred Nov 2013 #3
True. NaturalHigh Nov 2013 #4

Actually you have to prove damages tina tron Nov 2013 #59

It's easier for these women to get P.O. at the other woman than to get P.O. at their spouse. nt raccoon Nov 2013 #53

Kinda rough justice, I guess. But how about the man? CTyankee Nov 2013 #7
The article mentions that there's a companion site targeting men who cheat or petronius Nov 2013 #24
I read the story, but I haven't actually checked out either site yet. NaturalHigh Nov 2013 #25
I was just guessing that it was ad-supported. Maybe eHarmony will petronius Nov 2013 #27
Now that would be ironic. NaturalHigh Nov 2013 #58
