After reading Tammy's lulzy post on Butch Bakery (the cut is evading me, so you'll have to find it yourselves with this link http://swingandswirl.livejournal.com/133997.html?view=1285741)
I was scrolling through the other comments, and I stumbled across this gem: http://manteas.com/
I am stone-cold serious.
An online tea site especially for men. Because heaven forbid you drank girly tea!
Your delicate sexualities might just snap! and suddenly you might find you hair in ringlets, drinking Lady Grey with your pinky finger sticking out, whilst sitting side-saddle on a pink unicorn under a rainbow, with little faires flitting about to choral music.
There is a serious problem with society if this kind of thing is perceived as okay, just as shoving pink down girls throats from birth is equally damaging. Seperating the sexes into these sect-like constraints just because it has become a societal norm is not okay!
Young children should not be forced into these groupings, they should be free to explore whilst they are unbiased and young. Boys should be free to play with Barbie dolls if they want and not be frowned upon, just like girls should be free to choose whether they want a My Little Pony or a tank with an Action Man in full jungle get-up (God knows I did).
For your amusement, and quite possibly vexation, here is a quote from their site;
I could actually castrate him, just for the sheer nerve of him! And what he's saying doesn't even directly affect me!
It's hilarious!
But on a more serious note; How can we expect people to change their attitudes if this kind of douche is still tooling about on the web, spewing forth his misguided, misogynistic bile?
Sorry for ranting.
( Just as I finished this, I came across this page: http://www.stormfront.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-33485/t-270178.html. I actually feel sick. And disgusted to such a level I need a shower.)

no thanks, @manteas, the men in my life take sugar and sometimes milk, but not homophobic marketing. #nicetrybutno
For the record, I personally think gay dudes are great. They leave more chicks for the rest of us.
Oh my god. I'm choking on my surprised laughter here. The balls!I could actually castrate him, just for the sheer nerve of him! And what he's saying doesn't even directly affect me!
