    I decided to see if that was real.....it was indeedy.....it gets worse.......

    "Buehner alleged that girls shouldn’t participate in Girl Scout sales because they might then think it is acceptable to be “a woman who is going to compete with men in the marketplace,” when they should train their daughters on how to become “a woman who will be a helpmeet to a man so he can compete in the marketplace.” -

    Eating cookies leads to food babies. I thought they'd be totally ok with that.

    Was wondering that myself, a part of me has given up on trying to understand words from religious articles, stuff like the illustrious council of the constipated assumption of the god emperor just made no sense.

    Genesis 2:18 it says, "And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an helpmeet for him."

    Its the Word of God, so don't argue with it. Yep, women were basically created to be the personal assistants of men, using an auld spare bit of rib.

    Looks like a typo to me.

    About time god published a revised and corrected edition, really ;) and should consider another series of personal appearances to promote it, it's been a long long time.

    It's an antiquated spelling of "helpmate". Though I think the biblical spelling it unintentionally accurate, implying as it does, that the woman's there just to help her fellah with his meat.(*)





    (*) if you know what I mean...

    Maybe I should've had one of those christian marriages after all!

    Last wednesday, the last Wednesday in November, was the US festival of Thanksgiving. Here's the New Yorker's take on it:

    This gave me a laugh. Apparently because I'm educated I don't know how to be a proper wife and mother.

    Excellent. I was about to go and look that up. :D

    So long as they are not made of gems, gold or silver. Or shaped like other gods.
