hitting the fan

Because I am such a nice person, I do not want to pick up the nearest sledgehammer and use it on the next misogynist I come across.

Oh no, not me.

Keep telling yourself that. I do.

Some of them you can eventually command respect from, and some of them its a losing battle because you can never win a battle of wits with an unarmed person. It's like trying to explain something to a child who keeps saying "I know you are but what am I?". All you'll do is wear yourself down and make yourself unprepared for the battles you could win if you only had energy left.

BTW, were you thinking of "Bad Reputation" when you wrote "Oh no, not me"? Because I immediately got Joan Jett in my head!

Go for it! I support you! Then again, I am a radical feminist...

Would you have a sledgehammer that I could borrow, then? :D
