I think you'll find it's more than that - a great many RTAs are caused by women wearing tight-fitting clothing whilst they perambulate adjacently to the said vehicular traffic. Other women cause accidents by sapping men's vital fluids - and, subsequently, depriving them of the requisite alertness and energy needed to command an automobile. So, in summary, women should not be banned from driving, per se, but discouraged from wearing flattering attire in a built-up area. On this, as on many other points, I am firm.

I think the notion of a compulsory hijab may not be as impractical as it sounds.

Compulsory hijab. Hmm. Now, the decision is between, "make my life that much simpler and more productive" and "keep english class bearable". I'm gonna vote no on this one, Spungo.

Maybe i'll make a thread about that, because having to deal in a learning environment with girls is really weird (i went to an all-boys school). I am not exactly used to having classmates madly in love with me.

Huh? I thought you lived in a certain inner city suburb where the first letter and last letter are the same, and has a reputation for attracting teh gays

Why can't women be simple and fill out a form setting out their intentions for me.

Good idea. Make sure you GPL it, so we can all use it

Of course, if you were to point them towards these forums, that would be a solution, too. Presuming that they take the "show up naked, with beer" advice

I helped my bf with an essay in his first year of university about how women should take over the world because men are violent, and without them the world would be a safer and more peaceful place. Men would be farmed for sperm, and in order for women to make other women feel like they are superior, they would do what the Nazis did to children and train them to hate...lol It was actually really fun to think about!

I, for one, welcome our new sperm-farming, men hating overlords

True I have done it too. I am referring more to the ones that do it down the residential street when your rugrats are out riding their bikes.

I have one of those white kids down the street with a crappy Kia that he has tried to turn into a tuner. I can hear his stereo from a block away. I have actually seen him come around the corner so fast that he ended up on the opposing sidewalk.

And what is it with white kids listening to gangster rap? I guess they like listening to black guys talk about how they kill each other..

/me misses Marvin Gaye
