If you collect alimony, you're a moneygrubbing whore.
Okay, so

bad_service about her father-in-law passing away and his girlfriend of five years, claiming to be the man's wife, cremating him within 24 hours without consulting his family/next of kin or having any legal paperwork of any kind. Distressed because she and other family members did not get a chance to pay their respects and receive closure, she calls this bad service on the part of the funeral home.

Cue.... alimony wank!

Yes, that's right. Forget the possibly irresponsible/unethical funeral home and the possibly shady circumstances, it's all about them moneygrubbin' hos because alimony is charity and true feminists would have none of it.

Some lone voices of reason pipe up, nobly excusing

cbpiz due to her distressed state while at the same time patiently disagreeing with her, but no, alimony is for the weak.

Uh-huh.

The wank is dying down, as the OP seems to realize this isn't the time/place, but was it ever vociferous.

	I'm not sure which is more annoying -- "Sure, I want respect and equal rights and all, but I'm not a feminist" or "I'm a feminist but I think women are all helpless money-grubbing whores who need men to take care of them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Considering I've seen people call themselves feminist and argue "I'm a feminist but I think women are all helpless money-grubbing whores who need men to take care of them," "Men should all be neutered and women should rule the world because we're far superior" and everything in between, I've become much less annoyed by the "Sure, I want respect and equal rights and all, but I'm not a feminist" people, cuz God knows what they've heard feminism is.

	Actually, I'm starting to want to introduce the "Men should be neutered" folks to Nebris just to watch their brains break. "Well...er....he IS advocating my position, but...he's....completely barking mad. NOW what?" (Reply to this)(Parent)
