Actually it makes tons of sense. It is degrading towards womyn. Only men can be president. Is this what we teach society today? That only a man is smart enough or capable enough to run or become president? Joke our not many people find it offensive. I joke all the time but when a joke goes to far making fun of someone’s sex, religion, race, ethnic group or etc. that’s when the joke goes too far. A lot of those things are funny but some are stupid and are very sexiest and degrading. Yes I can turn my head but if I don't then people will continue to make "jokes" about sex, race and other things. If you don't stand up and show them whats right than nothing will ever change.

No you wrote advantages of being a man is you can become president. Womyn also can be president and many womyn may find it offensive. I don't bash everyones post you can't make a change without changing a few.

Well in the past 250 years almost we have not had a women president....so it would have to be a contry that is ready for one, and I dont think this country is ready

This country is very much ready of a womyn president. How can you say that we've fought for womyn rights for a reason. And when writing this "joke" it assumed only a man is capiable to be president but I know womyn who would be a lot better.

i think the sense he was talkin about is like grammar and such. u kno and spelling. the kind where women is spelled w/an e. oh my gracious, i really do have a hard time understanding what ur tryin to say sometimes bc u leave out the puntuaction. sometimes i abbreviate, but if u wanna kno what i'm tryin to say, just ask me.
u-you, ur-your, ppl-people, kno-know, and so on and so forth

The spelling of womyn rather than women is due to femynist consent and I repsect that so that is the main reason I spell it with an y rather than an e or an a.

If you personally came up to me a said the joke I might of laughed. But I'm speaking for femynist groups many womyn may find this a bit sexiest others may not. The spelling of womyn is due to the growing number of femynist groups who ask for it to be spelled this way. I respect that and therefore I spell it the way I do.

You're right no one is perfect. As long as I live I will try not to offend people due to they’re race, sex, ethnic group, or religion, and many other things people may find offensive. I have addressed previous post I explained why I spell womyn the particular way I do. I have no clue how life really is? I think for the age I have an idea about life. I've never lived an easy life. No it's not because I did not get some $10 t-shirt I wanted at the mall. I grew up with a very rough and un-easy life so please don't tell me I have no idea about life when you have no idea who I am past this forum. I never strive for attention. I post my opinions and if you can't accept me for that maybe you have some growing up to do. I have hardly put anyone down when posting my opinion yes I may offend but it's never direct.
