		<description>for knowing shit about what it means to be a woman you sure make a lot of presumptions that you do. 

please, if you have a valid argument at all (which seems unlikely) you completely destroy it by using the term &quot;women&quot; carelessly and loosely in blanket, generalized statements. you are absolutely no better than any person who claims that &quot;men are assholes.&quot; 

completely hypocritical. you can&#039;t be upset about &quot;women&quot; stereotyping men if you are going to return the favor with offensive bullshit about women&#039;s lack of independence just because you&#039;ve met a few who valued a committed relationship.

i say all this as a woman who dislikes men who pay for me and open my doors. i have equality and i have fucking worked for it. i didn&#039;t ask for any handouts. stop expressing your own insecurity in hatred for an entire gender composed of individuals and valid beliefs and personal values. in fact, if YOU sir, are an asshole, then it is simply because you fail to RESPECT your fellow human beings. it has nothing to do with having sex with you.</description>

		<description>The best kind of writing comes from thinking on the page, not in your head, and you do a fantastic job of putting your HONEST thoughts into writing. On the contrary you shouldn&#039;t apologize for your writing any more than you should apologize for your thoughts. They are YOURS. Own them.  You&#039;re a great writer!</description>

		<description>[...] Your Parents Love You Again When I moved out my parents saw right through the whole freedom and maturity thing. I wanted to drink without being asked if I planned on driving somewhere in the next century. I wanted to wake up in the morning and smoke pot while watching Sports Center. I wanted to fornicate loudly without being walked in on and utterly emasculated. [...]</description>

		<description>Don&#039;t ever apologize for your story telling. You will never please all the people all of the time. You have touched so many lives in a wonderfully, positive way.</description>
