Why I'm an asshole

Ok so I just read over some of my posts and they all seem to be about how shitty women are. They are not. I am silly and overly dramatic in my proclamations. I am a terrifically flawed being, and I want very much to not come off as someone who hates women. I do not. I think they are great like sunshine and lollipops.

Anoucha Brown Sanders and Why She Got What She Deserved

Anoucha Brown Sanders was almost certainly not sexually harassed. Her basic claim is that she was routinely referred to as a bitch. Mind you there is no evidence that this was how she was exclusively referred to, but rather that she was at times referred to in this manner. If this is true so the fuck what? I work in a high pressure environment. People get frustrated, and sometimes personal insults are exchanged (particularly if you're an unpleasant person). A week ago my boss threatened to slit my throat. I didn't think of this as him attempting to kill me. Our environment is fast paced and people say stupid shit. Her claim that Isiah propositioned her seems ludicrous as he's isiah thomas and she's massively unattractive. Girls get over on this shit all the time, but you can't say shit, or you're a chauvinist. In a sports environment masculinity rules. There is no way around this. She knew she was working for a sports team a certain amount of more limited decorum while unfortunate is certainly not sexual harassment. Shit damn you women folk sure do abuse a history of repression don't you? I mean she may have been harassed, but just because she's a woman, and they're men doesn't make it sexual. The case came down to Isiah's word vs hers of course she wins. This is actually true in rape cases also. A women's word bizarrely carries more weight than a man's. I hate this.
