Girlies?!?! Lol

I think I think it has become an issue because there has been a rebranding of feminism by the right. Instead of being a movement towards equality of the sexes, they focus on the weirder fringier elements, and lump all feminists into that pile. Much like how the left lumped all trump voters into...

Good rule of thumb, actually

Are you saying that conservatives don't abuse alcohol or pot?!?! Are you saying all liberals do?!?! Way to generalise, man

Where did you learn that? My kids went to school around the world as we were on postings, and I can say that the calibre of teacher was high, and the support of families for their children's education was awe inspiring.

And yet it wasn't designed to be a business. It was designed to serve the people. Soviet has nothing to do with it.

I know I don't pay that. 2.5k-3k sounds closer to the mark
