Radical feminism is as intolerant and as full of hate as radical Islam, but the former has taken over our university campuses and insinuated itself into politics, law, and the media, while the latter remains a widely-condemned fringe movement.

Descartes and de Montaigne argued about which was more important: knowledge or experience. But, to put it very simply, you can't have such an argument without first defining 'important': important for what or whom, and in what circumstances?

Even so, it's better perhaps to consider which is the more useful. Seems to me that both knowledge and experience are pretty useless without something which is more important than anything, and that is understanding..

I'm a mans man, I prefer the company of men, I like men and men like me. I hate women and women hate me.

The only reason I'm not gay is because I could never f*ck a man.

I could never f*ck something that I respect.

It's impossible for men to win, because if women do something better than men it's just evidence of their innate superiority, but if men outperform women, that's proof of discrimination and retrograde patriarchy or toxic masculinity.

The worst thing you can do to a person with an invisible illness is make them feel like they have to prove how sick they are!

We envy cows their placidity, but it would be no use asking them the secret of their happiness for they would have forgotten the question before they could give the answer.

About 45% of marriages end in divorce. If you were told that 45% of the time parachutes did not open, would you go skydiving? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/artic ... LLOYD.html
