Well, it's not all bla bla bla.
As in this case: Most women are not, in my view, angry bitch psychotic academic victimized mini-monsters. The Retriever's Grandma, for instance (image on right from that post).

Well, golly gee! Smack me with a mackeral and call me Edna! Thank God for the science of sociology to inform us of that.
