  1. Maybe if you “gals” would whine about the perils of womanhood and how evil Bush is you might be able to win the “hairy beaver” award.
    The femi-nazi movement is SOOO 1926. These gal-qaeda members are just bitter about their lot in life (poor, untalented, mean, nasty and ugly) and would rather whine about it and blame it on some mythical prejudice that hasn’t existed for several decades, than get off their asses and get on with life.
    Anyways, great retort Kate and Kathy. I’m sure it pisses these razor impaired bitches off to no end that ladies such as yourselves do more to advance women’s status in the world than they can ever dream of.

  2. they were hoping for purely the birkenstock sect that walk around in wooly socks held up by backcombing their legs. straight hair parted in the middle , macrame skirts , braided pits , kind of a unkept Margaret Atwood look. or the underside of Margaret Trudeau at club 54, without the sheer dress.

  3. You know what your problem is Kate? You are not a victim; neither do you pretend to be a victim, pose as a victim or ask for some sort of compensation for your non-existent victimhood. All THEY ask for is that you demean yourself by making the tacit inference that all females are inferior by virtue of the fact they have been victimized by males and THEY will not only elevate and celebrate you as a PROGRESSIVE feminist they will blackmail the government into flying you around the globe to drink lattƩs with other worthy feminists. Or, you can belligerently go on being your superior self and continue to screw up the feminist victimhood industry. Whatever works for you works for us.

  4. That was the best, most concise exchange I have seen in a while. Usually I ignore writers that swear but somehow your response seemed entirely appropriate. Progressive feminists annoy me. They are the whiniest and most self-righteous beasts around.

  5. “Those blogs that are devoted to gender equality, write about women’s issues, or write from a feminist perspective are eligible for this category.”
    *jaw dropped*
    Man! (Oh, sorry, “Woman!) There’s a recipe for a nationally recognized, hugely popular weblog…not.
    Doesn’t the CBC already cover that?
    The fact that an award is being proposed for this category should be embarrassment enough; “We can’t make it in the real world…”

  6. Looking for a definition of a feminist, I came across this one at http://www.feminist.com:
    What is Feminism?
    “[Feminists are] just women who don’t want to be treated like shit.”
    It seems that Kate qualifies easily according to this definition by her response to Admin @ November 3, 2008 at 9:13 pm.

  7. Kate you are like a John McCain. Knocking them out with one punch. Best delivery of a short, matter of fact statement that could not be took any other way except the way it was delivered.

  8. I disagree with Raphael Alexander’s opinion of Kathy Shaidle, but I think he pegged it pretty well in the comments.
    The admin’s comments illustrate perfectly the very narrow and modern-liberal definition of “authentic feminism.” Kate isn’t modern-liberal, so she doesn’t qualify.

  9. Ha!!
    Great response Kate.
    And Kathie? You really need to learn to stop bottling it all up inside….. šŸ˜‰

  10. It is for the Best Feminist Blog, not Best Female or Best Feminine, big diff. if you ask me.
    I noted who the nominator was to, Dino. is likely blinded.

  11. Kate…best response to nitwits I’ve seen in awhile. You just know you scare the hell out of them when they jump in so fast to belittle you and SDA. But I think they should rename it”Best Socialist with Hairy Legs and Thinks She has a blog somebody reads”.

  12. So Kate parries with:
    “Dear admin;
    You can go f*ck yourself very much, please.”
    Succinct, again. But, middle-prairie polite…
    I suspect that must be a bit like “Minnesota-Nice” šŸ˜‰

  13. I posted in support of you, but it seems they removed it before you saved the page.
    I guess if they want to win, they have to fix the vote (Acorn, anyone)?

  14. “…Kate would make a great wife.

    …come to think of it, so would my wife.

    Great save Tomax7. you could be a Lady Byng Trophy contender

  15. Bad attitude, all of you. To win this award one must write about gender equality. Actually achieving it in the real world in fair competition is not only insufficient, it’s downright counterproductive.
    Besides which, the award is only open to progressives. Conservatives need not apply, as they are part of the oppressive patriarchial militaristic capitalistic western-centric hegemony.

  16. This thread could get NSFW real fast which is a pitty in a way because there are a lot of us SDAers that can share the off coloured joke without crying to the HRC.
    btw, I trim my moustache for a reason…

  17. Jim….so sorry to tell you this,but Sandy doesn’t have a hope in hell of winning this “award” you nominated her for. After browsing her blog,I found her to be a thoughtful,educated,open to ANY and ALL opinions,considerate woman. That right there disqualifies her from the “feminist” award. Also she uses the dreaded “c” word,AND dares compare modern feminism to neo-Maxism! Nice try though.(I did however bookmark her..hehe)

  18. “Cal, note how similar your description sounds to an APB for the Manson Family”
    And also note how so many leftists thought the Manson murders were cool, and furthermore note how expressing admiration for them is in no way a barrier to acceptance in progressive circles.

  19. …Tex, notice the time stamp, took me two minutes to repost.
    Not that it took two minutes to post, but for me to rush back to the machine in case the wife reads it…

    If you want to see GIANT HAIRY BEAVERS, aka Castoroides Ohioensis, part of the group of LARGE Dead Animals, I recommend the above link.
    I hear John McCain is also a fan of LARGE Dead Animals, like Castoroides “OHIO”enis, as all the GIANT BEAVERS are pulling for him.
    Now if you get that gnawing feeling, try taking your wife out on a date.

  21. Isn’t the definition of a feminist someone who thinks that any woman who (like Kate or Palin) actually lives a strong, professional, independent life is a sellout?

  22. Just a thought on the braided pit hair… Is that something they do on their own or do they have to have someone help them? I can imagine that a “feminist” could probably do a one-handed braid but how in the hell do they get the little elastics on the ends?

  23. I’m tempted to join in the pussy-oriented talk, but I’ll exercise self-discipline and save it for private email…
    Anyway, this post reminded me- the nominations for the 2008 Weblog Awards are open now.
    http://2008.weblogawards.org/
    We’ll see what happens then. Will I be a finalist again in “Best Canadian Blog”???

  24. Yes, I think those women have issues. It’s proper and fitting for them to study them.
    Here’s one such women’s issue to study: “Why is that no man can stand me for more than 1/2 hour, and how do I gang up with other women (wo-persons?) to rationalize it and mask my anger?”.
    The grapes of the males were probably sour, anyway.

  25. “Competeing with the boys”
    The big hairy beavers are the angriest lot at the Gay Parade.
    Just make your way down there during the parade and ogle the topless hotties and these gigantic ugly bulls try their confused version of the 100 mile menacing prefight staredown thingy.
    It’s absolutely hilarious and somewhat disconcerting that they can be so angry at their own celebration.

  26. Let’s see how long my contribution stay up at that site. IN case it disappears, here’s what I submitted. I’m sure “Admin-Girl” will take care of it quickly.

    Frankly, the ā€œladiesā€ who find great pleasure in slagging women like Kate and Kathy because they dare to think for themselves regardless of what others’ think cannot hold a match to either one of them.
    I’ve read these so-called ā€œprogressiveā€ blogs before, and frankly, the arguments presented are about as complex as a one layered onion. No wonder they make as much impact as the sound of one hand clapping.
    If you want impact….go visit SDA or 5 Feet…that’s what GOOD writing looks like. Not the whine-fest one is liable to read here. Sheesh!!!..

  27. It is pretty funny, true enough.
    The thread calls for nominations. Illiterate posters try to vote, posting redundant re-nominations ad nauseam. This clutter gets deleted, with clear explanations for why it is unhelpful. Paranoia and rightwing victimology takes over: we’re persecuted/censored/PC-ified by eeeeevil feminists!
    Meanwhile, literate posters lacking this sense of paranoia seem to have had no problem figuring out how the process works…

  28. I nominated warren kinsella.
