Thoughtful and Inspiring Comments from Shellie...
I don't know who Shellie is, but she brought some lively comments to my blog today, and I would like to share them with you all... These comments are in response to my post, The Tax on Females.

Wow. I understand your point about 'women and children' first. If we want equal rights, then we should physically fight off rampaging men with guns too (your first scenario), because we are physically equal. No? Oh.
Yes, we do bear the children. We do take off work in order to care for that offspring the man was 50% responsible for, and that he's not, for some inexplicable reason, not responsible for post-delivery, or hell, post emission. I could do it right now...get knocked up once a year and work sporadically but what the hell kind of sense does that make, you brainless fucking moron?
You treat your mother and female relatives with so little disregard? You sure as hell don't treat the opposite sex with any dignity.
You don't have to treat us with kid gloves to treat us as fucking equals. We pay a special tax, as you put it, because men like you are idiots.
And another thing-more and more companies are letting men take off for paternity leave to raise the kid...
There are such things as bitches. If a man is holding groceries I do not waltz in front of him and steal the damn elevator. We're all fucking people. If she's a bitch, she's a bitch, but it doesn't mean the women of the world should pay a goddamn tax for it. Women are still brutalized all over the world and you are talking about this complete and utter nonsense. I can't believe I'm even commenting on it.

Shellie, I have to say, that was quite a rage-infested rant you just went on. So much so, that I had to read it a few times to even understand what you were trying to say.
Now that I have read it a few times, I would like to ask you extend the same courtesy to me, and perhaps read the post again. You probably read it through very quickly one time, and in a rush to defend women's rights, and to scream and curse, responded too fast and too harsh. In fact, had you been calm and rational, as I was in reading your feelings, you would see that nothing you attempted to cover in your 6 poorly constructed paragraphs even remotely touched on the topic I was trying to discuss.
Now, if you would like to start a discussion on the brutalization of women across the world, or on the pains of child birth and child rearing, or perhaps even a discussion about maternity and paternity leave, I invite you to write up a coherent essay on the matter, and leave it as a comment to this post. I will gladly publish it as a post on the main page in your name.
My post in no way demoralizes or belittles the role of women, it is simply meant to point out a potential rationale for the difference in salary in an equal workplace amongst different genders...
OK, enough of that crap - read the introduction to the blog, you retard(the part about this being a forum meaningless and irrelevant rants for entertainment purposes), and then take a deep breath and don't be too embarassed that you got all worked up about a freakin joke article. Oh, and do you speak like that in front of your father? Because if you did, you know he'd beat the ever-loving crap out of you again, right?
Jesus!
...Women... all emotion, no logic...

This here is my favorite part: "We do take off work in order to care for that offspring the man was 50% responsible for."
Yeah, that's right, the man's 50% responsible for that baby growing inside you. Conviniently, you use that argument when it suits you, and reject it when it doesn't.
For instance, should anyone try and attempt a similar rationale to (reasonbly) require a woman to have the consent of the baby's father (who, even you JUST ADMITTED is 50% responsible) before she cuts it into little pieces and sucks out of her womb, you'll probably go all ape-shit about "Woman's Body! Woman's Body! It's her body, it's her right, it's her decision!" or some such bullshit nonsense.
