The most degrading thing I have to do any more is change the occasional poopy diaper, and that's hardly ruining my life. The rest of the distasteful stuff (scrubbing toilets, pulling weeds, getting up early in the morning) is contracted out (or in, in the case of the getting up part).

I thought she might be speaking hyperbolically.

On the other hand, she noted that the ideas had been espoused by a professor in law school, and the ideas she espoused are fairly wdiely held in the Critical Legal Studies movement. The most notorious adherents are Andrea Dworkin and Catherine McKinnon.

I was wondering if she was a Crit. It's not a school I give a lot of credence to, but I do have some curiosity about how they reach the some of the conclusions they do.

And why are you attacking me this way? I'll have you know that a lot of people think I'm not totally unintelligent. You're being way too harsh dude especially since we don't know each other. Many investment bankers and revenue agents value my opinion and intellect.

I just think you're a mean bitch. Besides, you said nothing at ll about my neatly trimmed hair.
