The burning front page question of the day from my nemesis:

WHY ARE TODAY'S WOMEN SO ANGRY?

Why indeed? Personally, I think our collective rage is almost certainly due to the fact that we are rabid feminist spinsters who have been forced by a liberal society into jobs which go against our very nature and which we secretly hate and which stop us from marrying men who will look after us, and in whose service we can satisfy ourselves by cooking complex meals for dinner parties where the men discuss the gold standard and golf, and we talk about curtains and babies, AS NATURE INTENDED.

It's probably hormones...

The BBC (well actually the police but it's on the BBC website) are predicting a 'summer of rage'. I'm rather looking forward to it myself.

Maybe women are angry because the Daily Mail is always telling them that they're either fat cows or anorexic bitches, that if they don't have children they're deficient, that if they do have children and stay off work to care for them they're lazy and if they have kids and go to work they're bad parents AND bad employees... that they're automatically shitter at everything than men, that their bodies are not their own yet it's their responsibilities to keep said bodies up to the same standard as airbrushed, nipped and tucked millionaires, that if their husband/partner cheats on them it is automatically their own fault and that they are generally the scum of the earth for having the temerity to have been born without a dingaling.

Or maybe we're all on the blob.

I’m angry because Richmond and Ealing Broadway stations claim not to be Tube stations. Join me!
I’m going to shut myself off from the DM article for my own sanity.

Oh no, I did go and read it – I am attempting to ignore it.

Today's women are angry because today's society is largely composed of fuckwits, perverts and freaks who persist in ringing all the bells on the bus several times per second.

This woman-of-today is angry because I made the mistake of looking at coffeecatholic.blogspot.com. Honestly, even the Daily Mail would call this woman a right wing reactionary (and she would probably call them liberal propaganda).

You mean she dared venture an opinion? In public? How very unladylike and uncivilised of her.
