I don't get it at all.

Hiding racism, sexism, homophobia and religious intolerance under the rug so we won't offend anyone has NEVER worked. My dad was going on and on about Susan B. Anthony the other day, praising her courage in the face of so much opposition and hatred.

He is the first feminist I knew! He was telling me about a book he gave my daughter: 1001 Facts about Women's History, I think was the title. He has always encouraged my mom, my neices, my daughter and my sister and I to be strong women.

We're all in this together. Rape is everyone's problem. With the statistics what they are, if a man knows six women, he knows a rape victim.

If you love your country, you want to see it healed from these crimes. Yet we're always being told to just "shut up" and I'm fed up to the point I'm posting about it now.

They've opened Pandora's Box now by completely disgusting me and pissing me off!
