Actually, it's a smart dig at lawyers traders and other wankers...
[Read the article: The latest in fake-girlfriend technology]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]This is just a punky artist kid sly calling the millionaire manhattan-ites a bunch of wankers. Which they usually are.
He should release a FEMINIST OUTRAGE version, though, in which the girl is more realistic. Kiss her sweetly on the cheek, she bitches about your laundry and dishes. Curl up in a fetal position, she whines that you're never in the mood and don't find her attractive anymore. But smack her on the ass and tell her you're dying to take her to Rio but you want to buy her some new outfits first -- and suddenly she's rearing to go!

In Britain, Rape Cases Seldom Result in a Conviction Video
By Mary Jordan
Washington Post Foreign Service
Thursday, May 29, 2008; Page A01
LONDON -- After Linda Davies reported to police that her 15-year-old daughter had been raped, it took three months -- plus two dozen phone calls and a threat of legal action -- before police questioned the suspect, a 28-year-old neighbor.
"I gave police his name, address, mobile phone number, car registration -- everything but his passport," said Davies, 44, a strong-minded mother of two daughters. "I was basically begging them. He lived five minutes away from us."
The suspect was finally arrested but acquitted at a trial in which the judge told the jury that he was "in a way a man of good character" because his previous criminal convictions, for possession of stolen goods and marijuana, did not involve violence.

So that's the real Ugh. But no sexy videos -- or pedophile pics -- for your viewers...
P.S. "Lars and the Real Girl" -- watch and learn. It isn't ALWAYS about you, ladies.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Looks like that girl was more interested in her half of the condo profits than her half of the marriage.
"Oh, my God, it was so easy," she says, exhaling loudly. "I realized, I can get out of this, and he can get out of this, and we can get on with our lives." They sold the condo and split the profits, and that was that. She felt bad about hurting his feelings, but she never doubted her decision. I raise an eyebrow. "Never," she repeats.
I've always maintained you cannot ignore the profit incentive of divorce. This is one powerful way that feminism undermines family, by rewarding those who walk away. It's just like the CEO's golden parachute for underperformance. And then there is Sex and the City -- the ultimate support group for female users. But ultimately, the problem is that American women are like children. They can't commit to a job for two years, let alone a man, and they are more concerned about their shoes and matching bridal gowns than who they marry.
After graduating from college, Andi jetted off to culinary school in Paris, then switched to journalism, where she climbed the ranks, moving from one semi-glamorous job to the next — all the while hooking up, dating, dumping, and moving on. She's a perfectly modern gal, a gorgeous mess of neuroses and contradictions — the kind who never pictured herself married by 27, divorced by 28, and remarried with two toddlers at 35.
Pity that fool and his heartbreak when she walks off with their twins. These women will create a new generation of broken souls in their children.
For some, a starter husband is like a starter home — a semi-commitment where you're willing to do some of the surface work, like painting the walls, but not the heavy lifting, like gutting the whole foundation; he's just not a long-term investment. Others compare a starter husband to a first job, where you learn some skills and polish your resume before going after the position you really want.
You go, girl!

Recounts the story of a woman who was just not into her husband anymore, so she dumped in and took the kid. This is exactly what you'd get with a "Madam President" like Billary.

The problem with Cougars
[Read the article: Older women: Sexy or scary?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Can someone please explain to me why, when middle-aged guys pick up girls who could be their daughter's age, they are high-fived and congratulated for, you know, following some essential evolutionary drive toward procreation, whereas women who do the same thing get slapped with a cutesy feline nickname that implies both a feral instinct for the hunt and a possible fondness for wearing tacky animal print clothing?
This is bullshit. There are no high fives. What usually happens is that women like you cluck and squawk about how the girl is young enough to be his daughter. At the same time you are leering at the young men in the room...
But the biology is obvious: older men are wealthier, more powerful, better providers. Younger women are healthier nurturers. Since the woman still bears the children, and the man usually pays for them, this makes more sense than the opposite configuration.
When the 25 yo guy hooks up with the 35 yo woman you are looking at fertility drugs or procedures to make her pregnant, a high likely-hood of twins, and a lot more birth defects. In fact, at age 40, the woman's kid is as likely to have birth defects as one born to first cousins.
But why let biology get in the way of a feminist dystopia? 40ish is the new 21! You ought to have a boy toy (or two) around for when the batteries run low on the better-than-a-man-erator.
You go, girl!

[Read more letters about this article: Here]This woman gives credence to every guy who ever said, "She wanted it." And she discredits every feminist who blames men for exploitation. She is a one-woman self-exploitation show.
