In response to Adrienne's feminism rant...The best way to fight the patriarchy is to come over here and do my laundry. Then you'll hafta make out with me because the laundry gets me hot. You might think that motherhood is difficult, and I'll agree, but I have done you and your vagina-having cohorts one better: I rescued the President from ninjas in

Your friend Adrienne is one angry angry person.
wow.
I'm half tempted to write a response myself, but I'm busy making brownies for Toby at the moment. (Take that, angry feminist!)

When can I expect you over for the laundry and the making out? I'll light some candles and put on a latin mambo record if you want to be classy about it. And you'll be pleased to note that I'm no longer infected.

Although judgemental and observant aren't quite the same thing in my mind.
Serene... right.
If you were serene would you have replied to a comment that was not really directed at you, and in such an angry manner? Probably not. Oh well.

Do you believe that you "know" someone well enough to make an observation about them through two LJ posts? That's laughable.
Jeremy and I are going bowling now. Goodbye.

I don't need to "know" anything about you to make an observation. I wasn't being mean or anything, I merely said that you seemed very angry. And you keep proving me right.
Have fun with the bowling- I hope you lighten up a bit.
ps- What's with the insane laughter up there? I forgot to ask earlier... Is Toby an amusing thing? hm.

There's the context. If you think anyone ought to lighten up about sexual assault and domestic violence, that's your business. I know and respect a lot of married women and feminists. You're not in a "married" category unless you choose to be. I haven't stereotyped you.
Nuance is a major lacking of this medium. My apologies. I received a lot of feedback on that post that was misguided only by my not disclosing its true context and writing in a general way (see link above).
Above all, this has definitely exhausted itself for me. Being Jeremy's cousin, I'm sure you are nice person, however strange (though I'm not sure how many of those odd genes were left after Jeremy). Toby and I enjoyed a brief theatre acquaintance.
Goodnight. Be well.
