    Oh, you are JUST a man.

    So glad you get it.

    I am as entitled as a woman AND THE MOTHER OF A DAUGHTER to my opinion about the ojectification of women as you, as JUST a man, are entitled to your opinion about the ojectification of black people.

    However, I can see why you are a bit upset. You perhaps thought that as a man that you should get to play wrangler to the the opinions of all the fillies.

    I don't herd so well.
