This is not to excuse men for their scurrilous behavior; it is to awaken women their equal responsibility in dispute and confrontation.

I am popular with certain people, but I'm still blocked out of the establishment. I hate that incestuous world. It makes me sick. It's impossible for anything truly original to get done. Thinking is not allowed. It's all PC. It is so horrible because it is a fossilized, parasitic version of Sixties philosophy.
