5. Unless you have access to their school records (and I wouldn't admit that if I were you)

we can't know if they are as smart as their mom. We also can't know if they are as clever or as athletic or as kind.

ERGO: the poster commented on their looks. If they were male children the same comparison to their father would have been made. Would you have jumped on that with both feet or does male attractiveness lack the same feminists stigma?

But GUESS WHAT? We get it. That's why we are at DU. Because we understand these things are important. That women should be judged beyond surface qualities. So could you please just stop with the Hall-Monitor Puritanism for one freakin' second?

God, it is just so freaking tiresome.
