Making Fun of Rapists

Big words confuse them.  They think ‘No’ means ‘Yes’. They have no sense of direction.  They confuse running away with running toward.     They have a questionable understanding of basic biology.  They think they need sexual intercourse.  (Like, what, if they can’t stick their dick into some woman’s vagina, they’ll die?  Wouldn’t that be nice.) …

Ugly, Fat, Hairy Feminists

The reason most feminists are ugly, fat, and hairy is that most feminists are old.  That is, over forty.
