Hundreds of thousands of women will be sexually assaulted or raped this year.

Millions of women will be physically assaulted in domestic settings. Women will on average get paid less than men. Be slut shamed as their male counterparts are referred to as studs. Deal with demeaning cat-calls and gender specific insults. Forced to live as less than equal under religious rule. Be without equal representation.

The list goes on.

And you want me to listen to your pet peeve over an individual feminist you have a problem with?

Great job kicking ass on that one over the weekend, DU. I really mean that. Very few fell for the ignorant bullshit.
