Worker ants are STERILE females, kinda like this ghastly feminazi professor and her lesbian pals.

Boney, stringy hair, bug-eyed, probably hair armpits and legs. The woman looks exactly as I would have pictured her. ... Skeletor's kid sister? ... Worker ants are STERILE females, kinda like this ghastly feminazi professor and her lesbian pals.

Did you ever stop to think that, based on his/her/its appearance and attitude, you might be, as my lawyer friends like to say, assuming facts not in evidence!

I think it’s absurd when I read some story to one of my grandkids about animals that in real life are predators discovering the error of their ways and making friends with their prey. I tell them in real life that the predator was created to eat meat and would starve to death eating grass and it would upset the balance in life that God created.

Apparently, someone learned a new term (anthropomorphized) and decided to over-inflate their self-importance by attempting to employ said word such as to demean human beings while placing species from the insect world upon some pedestal.

Frankly, the only way I was able to assign gender was that the individual in question was referred to as Ms.

“Parents who read their kids stories about happy, human-like animals like Franklin the Turtle or Arthur at bedtime are exposing their kids to racism, materialism, homophobia and patriarchal norms, ....”

according to academics Nora Timmerman and Julia Ostertag

Don't laugh, you're paying for it.

And I know these two are Canadian, but if you don't think there are tens of thousands of American Timmerman's and Ostertag's, who will be directly influencing primary and secondary school curriculi, being supported by your grandchildren's credit cards...well, there are.

This is pretty doctrinaire stuff in Lit departments. Scan the latest DAI if you ever need a motive for suicide.

She probably does have a bigger *CENSORED* than her male co-academics.

Darn! I’d probably better cancel my plans to roll out my new Cletis the Fluffy Redneck He-man White Panther Cub series.

Nora Timmerman (PH.D...Piled Higher and Deeper) looks like a composite of every homely feminazi, womens libber and academic know-it-all I've ever seen.

She's just the type you want to get hold of your kiddies.....plus to give out tons of her marxist psychology drivel to infest the minds of your kids' little skulls full of mush.

She's involved in some kind of commune living movement somewhere on or around the home grounds of the left-wing University of British Columbia where she studies and teaches.

She and her "partner" Michael are the parents of two little offspringers around kindergarten age.

Heaven protect our little ones from goofy dames like Ms. Timmerman who's taken it upon herself to instruct us how to raise our children....while I'll bet her own unfortunate love children grow up to be serial shooters.

nuclear families and gender stereotypes

Yeah, things Biblically defined as "good" - of COURSE a leftist/Humanist would take the opposite view.

Just bake some gun-shaped pastries...and send them to her kids so they can bring them to school, get expelled and have the offenses entered on their records permanently.

That actually just might be true ...
