We should all shut the hell up. Humans are dumb, both men and women. .0001%
are worth a damn and all "rights" movements are relections of humanity's
inability to cope with its own retardation

People should really stop judging feminism. Feminism is what keeps males and females equal! If you say stuff like "Feminism is Cancer!" Then go home and learn your lesson.

Beautifully read by the author, with warmth and humanity. It was shorter than I expected, though. Can't wait to read more by her.
