The Wild Ride
The Feminist Returneth.
I just ran into The Feminist, Lawrence's resident crazy feminist, down in Main Hall. Her coterie of anti-violence-against women goons (including Jinx, Sadie, and the ever-droll Meredith) invited me to attend their Tuesday meetings, which, according to Jinx, go something like this:
Feminist: We don't like violence against women.
Other Feminists: Yeah!
Anyways, I really have nothing against having something against violence against women, and I certainly have nothing against attending a pithy little meeting next Tuesday. My hope is that--eventually--I can be part of the Vagina Monologues.
The Feminist, of course, was characteristically humorless, receptive only to the code-words of her own genderlect. I asked for her opinion on intergender soccer teams, and she tried to inform me. That's actually a good approximation of The Feminist -rather than give her opinion, she told me stuff I already knew. Ladybugs and Ginger Snaps failed to trip her trigger.
