Menstruator, and other words that rhyme with ‘hate her’
if you wish to be inclusive
please amend your language usage
‘woman’ has now been disabled
this is how you shall be labelled:
ovulator, menstruator, gestator, incubator
procreator, lactator, child-curator, care-taker
homemaker, meal-maker, vacuum-cleaner-operator
titillator, conciliator, erotic-roleplay-stimulator
if a woman should resist
any title from this list
please ensure her full compliance
here is how to squash defiance:
moderate, invalidate, ensure that you re-educate her
irritate her, frustrate her, make sure you exasperate her
do berate her, denigrate her, obviously you castigate her
deprecate her, do deflate her, tell her you depreciate her
dominate, humiliate, and certainly manipulate her
subjugate, domesticate, and if you can, you abnegate her
penetrate her, impregnate her, all her life administrate her
regulate, incarcerate, and you shall incapacitate her
violate her, desecrate her, let your actions devastate her
decorate her, mutilate her, crush her and debilitate her
obviate, excoriate, and with your words eviscerate her
decimate, intimidate, until you can subordinate her
designate her, emulate her, mimic her and obfuscate her
appropriate, adulterate, mock and then impersonate her
exterminate, obliterate, and finally annihilate her
disintegrate, evaporate, replace and then eradicate her
just negate her
just negate her
just negate her
hate her

Makes as about much sense as the original. :)
Just another fine(?) example of what is going on in society and how we are taught to view one-half of our species. The article was later pulled, but the important question is how did it even get through the editorial process in the first place?

And of course, *you* wouldn’t participate in such a god-awful post, but clearly others would. Need to make a difference? Talk to the people you know who would comment on an article like this and explain exactly how incredibly misogynistic it is.
Easier said than done, but other than converting one dude at a time, I don’t see how we can affect change in our society.
The Concierto de Aranjuez was inspired by the gardens at Palacio Real de Aranjuez, the spring resort palace and gardens built by Philip II in the last half of the 16th century and rebuilt in the middle of the 18th century by Ferdinand VI. The work attempts to transport the listener to another place and time through the evocation of the sounds of nature.
According to the composer, the first movement is “animated by a rhythmic spirit and vigour without either of the two themes… interrupting its relentless pace”; the second movement “represents a dialogue between guitar and solo instruments (cor anglais, bassoon, oboe, horn etc.)”; and the last movement “recalls a courtly dance in which the combination of double and triple time maintains a taut tempo right to the closing bar.” He described the concerto itself as capturing “the fragrance of magnolias, the singing of birds, and the gushing of fountains” in the gardens of Aranjuez.
Rodrigo and his wife Victoria stayed silent for many years about the inspiration for the second movement, and thus the popular belief grew that it was inspired by the bombing of Guernica in 1937. In her autobiography, Victoria eventually declared that it was both an evocation of the happy days of their honeymoon and a response to Rodrigo’s devastation at the miscarriage of their first pregnancy.[1] It was composed in 1939 in Paris.
Rodrigo dedicated the Concierto de Aranjuez to Regino Sainz de la Maza.
Rodrigo, nearly blind since age three, was a pianist.[2] He did not play the guitar, yet he still managed to capture and project the role of the guitar in Spanish music.[3]
Need some food for thought? Have a spot in your book pile? Grab one of these titles and see what men think should be off-limits for women and the public to read.
