“Effectively” being the key word in your post. That was not what she said or meant.
This line is particular is utter bullcrap: “…years of our culture like raising like men to want to not be like women and using language like ‘sissy’ and ‘you throw like a girl’ that demean women.”
Actually, it’s not if you break it down and think about it.
What do we mean when we say, “Don’t be a sissy” or “You throw like a girl”? It means one’s effort, or performance is subpar or otherwise not acceptable. The implication in that is being like a girl is subpar or unacceptable.
But really, it’s not ‘being like a girl’ we dislike, it’s subpar effort and performance, so why not say that? Do we appreciate people for giving their best effort and maximizing their potential? Gender shouldn’t even be a factor in that.
Also LOL at the hysteria over Limbaugh.
Yes, that was the very definition of hysteria…
If you enjoy listening to him, more power to you. I have better things to do than sit around eating boogers from under the table.
