Wow so apparently a female columnist at The Guardian, of all papers, thinks that women should support Michelle Bachmann purely because she is a woman and we need more female representation.
Never mind the fact that she thinks women should all do what their husbands tell them to do, even studying tax law despite hating it because her husband told her to, as "she had to be faithful to what God was calling her to do through her husband".
Incidentally I wonder what else he tells her God has said to do; "Oh honey I know you don't feel like pleasing little Ronnie Reagan tonight but God told me to tell you to get busy or yet another Arab Country might go all Islamy".
I wonder what would happen if she was elected to the highest office in the USA and suddenly it was crunch time. Her finger poised over the button (giving her husband's little Georgie Back-Bush a break), trying to decide whether it's time to blow Canada up once and for all. When suddenly she skips off to boot up a Skype conversation with Mr Michelle to ask him what he thinks from his Jacuzzi that he told her to buy for him.
He would answer with "Well Stephen Harper seems pretty gay to me, and Pro-Canadian which is clearly Anti-American, let's cure him baby" then go back to rubbing baby oil into his caddy's pecs.
To suggest we should support a woman who thinks that public education is creating a child holocaust and that slavery meant a better nuclear family for black children is right up there with suggesting Gary Glitter as the next president of the PTA because their diversity is lacking a Glam Rocker.
So Angela Cummine (Cummine seriously.... as in hey Michelle the Lord won't like it if I'm not Cummine), you can take your pseudo-feminist stance and shove it where your tampon doesn't shine. Though no actually that's a very nice place, a warm inviting fun place saved especially for a nice partner who asks to go there. So instead you can throw it in a sewer where it belongs.
It is insulting to my feminist sensibilities to abdicate reason in the face of statistics. Yes I would like more female representation obviously, but I'm not going to vote in Myra Hindley as Minister for Children just because the ladies loos are underused.
I will instead tell my niece as often as possible that she is very clever and can do whatever she wants, despite what any man tells her to do.
(Excepting maybe her Daddy til she's about 18.)
No he isn't a closet case at all, as Steve Gray has pointed out!

Hi Penny,
Love your work.
And your rant. So ... right.
If you're on google plus there's a tone argument going on about real names that you might find relevant (mostly some good links in the post
https://plus.google.com/113460946096069722041/posts/TcvXfnwcdDk)
Also, any chance we'll see you posting on The Hand Mirror or The Lady Garden? I'm sure you'd slot right in to the porn Tuesdays at TLG :)
OOhhh I don't know anything about all of that, am looking at The Lady Garden now. What's porn tuesdays???
Porn Tuesdays is Emma posting about porn, usually porn that she finds interesting. I saw your cabaret post and thought "crosspost!". So I'm emailing Emma about it and hopefully you lot can get together.
(sorry, burlesque, I know what I meant)
Also, if you put "porn tuesday" into the lady garden's search box you will get a list of posts with that name. There doesn't seem to be another way to find them.
I suspect you'll get Emma trying to contact you, it might be worth dropping her an email (listed on their about page) if you're interested.
