Got so mad today.  So SO mad.  At guy friends (educated professionals) I lost some respect for bc casual misogyny.  They were talking about how tiger woods and other big athletes chase other women even if they have wives, and excused it, like 'we don't know how hard it is to always be tempted and no one ever say no to you' (like really?  there are powerful men who aren't womanizers, we just don't talk about the fact that they aren't womanizers; pick some fucking worthy role models).  They further elaborated that man, if they were with a 6, but 9s and 10s were throwing themselves at you, so hard to resist.  PUKE.  Like fucking PUKE.  Don't know if I'm more disgusted by the fact that grown intelligent men think it's perfectly fine to rank women's worth based on their appearance (I'm not assuming that they are ranking someone as a '9' or '10' by their brains here), or by the fact that they think grown men are brainless slaves to their dicks, therefore they hold themselves to low standards.  It's casual idiocy like this (women's worth = appearance, men can't help themselves boo hoo) that lead high-ranking professional men in whatever industry to make discriminatory observations that become status quo.  Take Michael Eisner's comment recently about how there are no 'attractive and funny' female comedians.  What the fuck does attractive have to do with it, Mr Gatekeeper of the industry?  Have you not seen the ass cracks for faces on male comedians throughout history?
Moms, if you're raising your sons to think like the above, you fail at Momming.  FAIL.  I judge you.
