I'm in the mood I have sometimes where I find misogynists amusingly failboat rather than ENRAGING. So that's nice. Because I found this guy.
It's good that our high-school kids are getting the right kind of information from their elders, it really is.
Girls aren't equal, I guess. We have to smile all the time and guys can scowl their little hearts out because they are the privileged sex. although, NOTE that he says smile when "you walk into a room". So I guess maybe it's okay to frown once you've made that first "ooh, isn't she pretty" impression. Guys, if you come into a room scowling, never fear! People will just think it's because you've got big manly thoughts going on in your head.
Also, I found this kind of funny:
"The comment regarding Equal being a package to pick up at Starbucks was paraphrased from a comedian's routine, Elniski said."
And I guess that makes it okay? Um, it might be just me, but I find guys who spend their entire routine talking about how dammit, women are just so darn annoying because they don't understand his manly needs to ignore her and other manly messy man things, well, I find those comedians just as offensive as if they'd come out and ranted about 'those damn Orientals'. Or some such thing. So tell me how the fact that you quoted some sexist comedian rather than making it up yourself makes the comment more appropriate? Nevermind, I guess we'll give him a chance to explain what he really meant.
"Elniski said the message was that men and women should be friendly and approachable in dealing with others."
Actually...I seem to remember that the message was that WOMEN should be friendly and approachable. Maybe you should be more specific.
Then he went to the Pride Parade and offended people there.
"Elniski said on the weekend he's not insensitive to the gay community, adding that he has a cousin who is gay."
Oh, all right, then. And that explains the first one too. after all, his mum's a woman. He couldn't possibly be sexist.
