Give me a fucking break. --skymutt You search DailyKos for evidence of hostitlity to women and you come up with that thread?

I was always told that, in English at least, one should only use the passive voice when the person doing the deed was unimportant to the story. lawbitch, exactly.

I posted about some knob hauling off and killing people at a shopping mall. It's---such a shock, I know----a guy. Some stray woman hasn't yet been blamed for this rampage of privilegosity, but give it time. Meanwhile, I've already a previously-noted "But I just want to learn about feminism!" dude pop up with the ever popular, "But women do it, too!" Sorry, don't have time. They all think they're special, that they're the first person to say this shit. That's privilege right there. So, no, not too impressed with taking back the blog. Some of us trying doing that every damned day and get called humorless for it. Too busy to kiss ass, I guess. Argh. Pheeno, you’re at my blog again, aren’t you?

I keep thinking one day I'm going to run into some asshat like Kos in real life who will say the wrong thing, on the wrong day, in a quiet, dark little place where no one will hear him cry when my mind bursts and transfers the hatred and pain I have internalized to my throbbing biceps and to my clenched fist. I keep thinking and then I can't do anything else because they don't come out and say those things to my face alone, anywhere on any day. It is always anonymous, on a blog, in a respond to my editorial for the paper, or under their breath behind my back. I can't see them but I know potentially every man I look at his him, every male face I ponder; their smiles and their friendliness, their cheery helpfulness, or the way they quietly ignore me. But I am eluded when I am ready and pounced when I am least expecting it and have nothing but the thin air and the burning rage left as result to flail at. That in and of itself is malicious.
