[QUOTE=jasong;444419]Okay, back to random thoughts. :)

What's the most pro-woman invention? And don't say bra, because feminists will probably track you down and kill you at that point. (I'd be hesitant to talk about anything a man would encourage them to do, although...)

I may be breaking my own parenthetical rule, but maybe The Pill, the one that prevents pregnancy? Because not only does it prevent pregnancy, it prevents periods. And if you do decide to be about men, you don't need to worry about broken condoms. But I have also heard The Pill can cause medical problems, though I forget what they are.[/QUOTE]

Edit: STDs, I temporarily forgot about STDs. I wouldn't normally, but I only worry about women having STDs since the only way I'd get it from a man is by becoming a homo or an intravenous drug addict.

Can you hear them? The blood-thirsty lesbians that will stalk you? And even if they don't stalk you, they shall harass the hell out of you if they simultaneously catch wind of your post and your physical location.

Oh, wow...I just remembered...My name is on these forums somewhere. It's just a matter of time...Maybe if I beg, they'll let me write my will...

Not much time left...My skin crawls...

Okay, maybe that's a bit extreme. I guess if I can be sane and write the stuff I do on the internet, that means the liberal crazies are sane in real life too.

Edit: In the distance I hear singing: "It's a small world after all...It's a small world after all...It's a small, small world..."

AFAIK, it doesn't prevent periods.

It does. From the decent [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_cycle_combined_hormonal_contraceptive"]Wikipedia article[/URL]:"Although it was evident that the pill could be used to suppress menstruation for arbitrary lengths of time, the original regimen was designed to produce withdrawal bleeding every four weeks to mimic the menstrual cycle."

Cool. So it is used to "simulate" periods? Presumably without the nasty side effects?

[QUOTE=axn;444434]Cool. So it is used to "simulate" periods? Presumably without the nasty side effects?[/QUOTE]Reminds me of the old joke: what's the difference between BSE and PMS?

[spoiler]One is mad cow disease and the other is a serious agricultaral problem. [/spoiler]

[QUOTE=xilman;444477]Reminds me of the old joke: what's the difference between BSE and PMS?[/QUOTE]

I would rephrase that joke:

Q: What the difference between a PMS woman and a post-PMS woman?

A: The former will argue with you on occasion, they both will work with you.

(My immediate apology to all women who read that. But let's please be honest: you're not easy to work with.)

I don't. I just figured I'd play up the psychotic right-wing Republican stereotype.
