I've been saying this forever. It seems to be such a foreign concept, that I started to realize that <a href="http://www.molvray.com/acid-test/2005/08/are-women-human/" rel="nofollow">women must not be human</a> -- in most men's mind's that is. It's a sad statement that when I went to look for the author of this great screed, I was shocked to see it was someone named "David." The thing I find hardest to take is the attitude of progressives. The troglodytes and the Taliban are bad, but when your friends don't understand why it's a problem that half the human race doesn't count, then I start to despair. (To be absolutely precise, more than half the human race.) This post is a breath of fresh air. I know it sounds stupid, but I don't know how else to put it in words: THANK YOU.
