Wow! Your's is an extremely judgmental and condescending point of view.............. ihaveaquestion Jun 7 #38

I took it as kind of satirical - there's a skull on the shelf. Ocelot II Jun 7 #28

If it is satirical, I give her credit. She proved my point. Perhaps she'll add a comment to the video. hlthe2b Jun 7 #29

I give her permission to use whatever background she wants. NBachers Jun 7 #5

With the men, it more like Gaetz wants a Liberace makeover. Crowman2009 Jun 8 #49

How ironic Cirsium Jun 7 #33

Too subtle, maybe? Cirsium Jun 7 #36

While discussing something that seems to be a parody of "feminism" Mossfern Jun 7 #45

Women want to be taken seriously? Cirsium Jun 7 #47

That was very interesting! ShazzieB Jun 7 #37
