From ThinkProgress
As I listen to the debate today and earlier debate on this bill, I cant help but think of a title of a book, Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus. And its a book about the fact that men sort of think one way in their own brain, in their own world. And women think another way in their own brain and in their own world. And it really talks about the way that men and women can do a better job at communicating. Because if you listen to the debate today, in my mind a mans mind I hear two fundamental issues. From the other side of the aisle, I hear the conversation being about: free. This is free, we need to take it, and its free. And we need to do it now. And thats the fundamental message that my brain receives. Now, my brain, being a mans brain, sort of thinks differently, because I say, well, its not if its free, is it really free? Because I say, in my brain, theres a cost to this.

(113,496 posts)3. so, let me see if I have this correct. republicans all have "man brains" and democrats all have
"women's brains", which are clearly useless when it comes to any sort of rational thinking? what the **** is wrong with these people??
this woman-hating jerk is a member of the state human rights commission. what a joke.

Whether he's doing it consciously or not, this has been a pervasive meme with the Republicowns for quite some time.
(PS- to whoever does the coding for the spell checker; 'Republiclowns' is spelled correctly- please add it to the lexicon)
