so, I'm reading this book of short stories by Anne McCaffrey that I've read several times, I've had the book for years. And I come across this
"[random conflict] doesn't affect your cooking" Too much a woman not to be pleased by even an brother's praise, Damia relaxed.
I thought "wow, that's kind of sexist, but maybe I'm reading into it" Then came this:
How could she have blundered around so, looking for a mind that was superior to hers, completely overlooking the fact that a woman's most important function in life begins with physical domination?
WTFF??? I'm almost as amazed by the fact that I never noticed it until now as I am by the ridiculous sexism. I mean, I know the book was published in 1977 but come on!!!
for comic fans
Please face the tiger.
yuck, sj. I hope you get some relief soon.
Vortex, is that in Get of(f) the Unicorn?
Hil, can you start forwarding him links to articles that you think he should read so that he gets that you're reading them?
I'm not really sure how to phrase stuff like that. Also, I'm pretty sure that he doesn't read my emails, at least not unless they're about something that he's also working on at the moment.
even if he doesn't read the0 , you'll have a record
Hil, I think with this guy, you just have to play the game his way. When he makes a complaint, isntead of thinking about how you are already doing whjat he is asking for (since he is clearly not seeing it), say something like "How would you like me to share my article reading with you? I can send you links to relevant work."
Yet again, Scrappy is wise.
