407. You know, you are probably right
Anyone who mistakes that condescending garbage as "historical analysis" or anything close probably isn't up for the job. Tbere was nothing in his post that reflected the historical reality in any way.

NOR was I attacking him on the basis of his gender, but the basis of his errors AND the condescension he hid so well from you by cloaking it in terms that apparently made him sound to you like he knows what he's talking about. Let me assure you, he does not.

I'm also surprised -- and disgusted -- that you didn't pick up on what women have had to endure since time immemorial: yet another man telling us what to do, what to think, how to behave about OUR issues, our lives, our own thoughts and our own movement. BUTT THE FUCK OUT is my attitude. If you find that offensive - that we're sick and tired of having men butt in and order us around (and esp. if you can't even recognize instances where that's what's happening), then yes, you're not right for the job.
