“Margaret Atwood writes that when she asked a male friend why men felt threatened by women, he replied that, ‘They are afraid women will laugh at them.’ When she asked a group of women why women felt threatened by men, they said, ‘We’re afraid of being killed.’”

Sadly, his comments seemed more tame and sane than these men’s do.

But they’re just trolls right? *eye roll*

Secondly, and a bit belatedly, Kate, I know what you mean about Huey having his heart in the right place and his mouth in the wrong one. I have a friend, sweet as can be, who sometimes says the most stupid things, and I have to try to convince people who don’t know her that no, really, she’s a sweet girl, and her heart’s in the right place, she’s just… not good at expressing it all the time.

Thirdly, to Melissa… you are a wonderful woman. Just the fact that you’ve apparently not gone running away from the internet, never again to post an opinion ANYWHERE… I know I’d be in tears. I would be curled up, sobbing, in tears, and terrified to ever say ANYTHING where someone might disagree with me. Thank you for being strong.

Sometimes I really really hate humans. Right now, I’m hating those humans, the ones who said those things, and every other human who’s ever said anything like it. GRAAAAWR.

Not the horrific prison rape thing, but how ’bout someone follows them around and flicks them in the temple every rude and unfactual(?) comment? Not much, but it’s still somewhat satisfying. And potentially useful! They’re discouraged from making the comment, AND they get someone to talk it out with. The treatment continues for a month, and if there’s no change, they get punched and then left alone. Or somesuch. I dunno.

And I too am a fat cunt who’s already been raped, so the trolls ain’t got nothing on me.
