Canned responses to patriarchs


1. You’re just expressing emotions. Emotions don’t mean anything to me, so I am free to ignore them.

2. You may have said something, but it has no meaning. Can you say it again, in a way that has meaning?

3. Perhaps there is something wrong with your sexuality if you think that way?

4. You seem to be nuts!

5. No, I still can’t quite grasp what you are getting at or why.

6. Are you trying to say this to fulfill your biological urges or reproductive whims? It seems rather narrow, and I cannot grasp it from my heights.
