yesterday. It's entirely a GD topic. The Lounge didn't erupt over whether "National Tell a Girl She’s Beautiful Day" was misogynistic.

GD did.

For my part, I'd much rather be told that I have a gigantic medulla oblongata or talliwacker or bank account than be told I'm beautiful. If I had a big brain, dick or roll...I'd be well on my way to happy. I mean look at Jon Hamm...the guy's okay in the looks (like a 4-6) department but he's rich, smart and hung; women lust after Jon Hamm.

Bieber's beautiful...nobody lusts after Justin Beiber.

I seriously doubt the carpet I'm about to shampoo cares much what I look like.

Can't people just say things like

"Hello. I am model # 352. I am seeking data on the location of the nearest oil station. May I please be allowed to speak with you and take part of your intellect so that I may find my way"

See, if we all just lost being individuals and liking those of the opposite sex (or same) and kept our mouths shut we wouldn't offend the delicate sensibilities of others. I hate that I put women into shame and make them feel like I am a rapist stalking them if I say they look nice or help them change a tire. I have learned to treat women different than others now because I see how our patriarchy has made them weaker than others.

Someday though, I pray, we can all compliment each other and it won't be so damned complex.

Barely awake, stumbling through my first cup of coffee, knowing I've got important things to do today but not remembering what, and BAM! - someone posts a nice helpful list...
