Love it. And it's totally not even the fact that he's dressing as a woman or is even there. The narration of course is the clincher.

Ridiculous world we live in.

Yup. Women earn something like $.70 to the dollar compared to men. It's horrible. What's worse is that in the 1990s, we earned $.73 to the dollar compared to men. That means our salaries are LESS than it was 20 years ago!

So the fight for women's rights 100 years ago was just for the right to work, and now it's for the right for equal pay.

And to say that it's because we have babies is bullshit. Society needs to adjust itself so that men take a greater role in child rearing. There are more and more single mothers these days and that's because men are taking a smaller role in the family.

I say, pay women more, men stay home and BE FATHERS, everything will work out in the end. :)
