If there's one thing I hate, it's a double-standard. Especially a double-standard steeped in sexism and stereotypes.

If it makes you feel at all better? Some of us do go to hell in the end.

Wasn't aware that rape was one of your sins, Digger.

Was referring to pinching arses without permission. But I know quite a few rapists that went as well.

Would you like a list of my sins? The things I'm allowed to do and not allowed to do?

Would that help?

That's your business, I'm sure.

OOC: Posting long "reply" to this at my journal. Then again... Piper has excellent ears *wink*...

(It really does not take much to set Piper off, and then he goes on a tangent and blows it WAY out of proportion. Yes, he makes some good points but... damn... Piper! *LOL* But he wouldn't be the righteous social activist we love if he didn't occasionally turn into Ranty McRantypants XD )

Hey, I LOVE this rant! I just need time to get a good response up! I plan to counter this guilt trip with an unintentional one on her part. It might even induce another Piper rant about the unfairness of cultural expectation... after all, she's quite *alien*, how fair is it to expect her to be totally *human*?

(Ah but there's the thing: He's not ranting about her alien side; he's ranting about the two-sidedness of Earth cultures -- he's picked up that she's been on Earth for a considerable length of time, much more than nine years, and has picked up Earth's cultural expectations.)
