Read this: http://www.livejournal.com/users/karnythia/416490.html -- in which the government informs us, among other things, that no one likes a smart girl.

Seethe.

Take my poll. (Btw, LJ polls drive me crazy, because I want to do a lot of "if, then, skip to" etc., but I can't. So these things aren't just unscientific, but sloppy. But doing it made me feel better. I apologize if I left out the answer you wanted, I try really hard to be inclusive in these things, but live and learn, also, hi, at work and distracted.).

*grumble* I didn't follow instructions. Completed the poll and made my post without reading the link.

What morons. In the last three decades the definitions of families, relationships, marriage and gender roles have (properly!) blurred so drastically that it's pure idiocy to try and shove such narrow-mindedness down children's throats and treat it as gospel. What happens when they find out the real world isn't as black and white as they were led to believe? Why teach such ridiculous meanings of right or wrong when they no longer apply to modern society? Why encourage intolerance? Why encourage mindless gender roles? (Woman is smart, but should remain demure and helpless to make man feel strong and accomplished.) If a guy's ego is so fragile that he can't deal with a woman offering him helpful advice, then he shouldn't be procreating.

Of course, encouraging abstinence instead of education is a fool's errand to begin with, so I guess I shouldn't expect otherwise. Fuckwits.
