I voted for Obama after all. He isn't FDR, yet, I can only hope he develops and shows the qualities of a strong leader at some point, instead of Compromiser in Chief, to get us out of the deep hole dug by the last administration.
I think women are trying to take over if you ask me. They are not satisfied with just equality. The feminists are using regular women as sheilds for their campaigns of hatred for men.
I agree, shut up already. You hve a job that pays 10 times more than mine and i'm a guy. I am so tired of rich women complaining about having nothing while I, a man have to sit here and watch them jobless.
which is another example of women HAVING to use beauty to progress considerably in a career which surely again shows how sexist society is? I think people should progress because they are good at what they do not because they are "pretty" or a spesific gender. Feminists campain for EQUALITY not DOMINANCE - well, the real ones do :) please don't shoot me down guys its just a comment I'm interested to know other's opinions too :)
