Uppity women post here.
Without uppity women we would still be living in caves.

It takes uppity women do get things done.

7. "Without uppity women we would still be living in caves.".
It's true. Why would men explore, invent, go to war, hunt and form governments?

To get their wives to stop nagging them about it. ;-)

8. I love sexist jokes.
I *really* do. 'Nagging wives,' I can :rofl: a whole day long just thinking about it, while we ball-wearers have to invent wars, unjust governments and kill wildlife. Really. You win. Really ... Great post.

9. As much as I love "women are better then men" posts.
:rofl:

I love posts that imply women are primarily the reason for this or that, as much as I love post where men claim the same thing. It's marvelous.

Unless they're just cracking wise. Then I crack right back.

:rofl:

12. Ahh, the reverse trick. ;) Funky.
Classy. You post something sexist, I take you up on it, you end up blaming me for being humorless, 'cause it's all in good fun since we have balls, right. Go hunt, declare war, run governments and stuff and come home to nagging wives.

You missed a 'have,' too.

Edited on Thu Jul-22-10 05:46 PM by lunatica
If women weren't uppity we'd still be back in the days when we didn't have the vote, were considered property and were expected to shut up and have babies and find our fulfillment in serving our husbands children.

20. Uppity women ruined the Wild West.
It used to be a great place where men could be men and fight, hunt, kill, get drunk and not bother bathing. Then women started moving in and they wrecked it all by wanting law and order, schools, well kept yards, paved streets and sanitation.

I was married to one. Most of my female friends would be considered uppity women.
Thank the gods for uppity women.

I can be a peacemaker when I want to be, but I don't consider it wise to treat me as if I can be rolled over.

Can't survive these days, or any "days" in history without being an uppity woman.
