I have to admit when I go shopping for toys I feel an awesome wave of depression when I look down the girl's aisle. It's a giant sickly vortex of pink. It's creepy to me, and I feel bad for all the tomboys out there who get that stuff every Christmas and don't know what to do with it. I've never understood why we make a fetish out of turning our daughters into "princesses." It seems like a nice way of saying "look pretty and find the right guy and you'll be entitled to what you want." At least ninjas and pirates and jedis actually do stuff and seem self-reliant. Glad I've got sons. I'd hate to bring up daughters in our culture.
Standing up while urinating may soon be illegal for men in Europe. Male representatives on the Sormland County Council and the Left Party are pushing for “sitting only” public restrooms. Exactly how the self-avowed socialist and feminist political party plans on enforcing the allegedly more sanitary restroom habits of males remains to be seen. Supporters of the law against standing while urinating also believe that male health will be bolstered when urinating while sitting on a toilet so the bladder empties more effectively, according to the Huffington Post. If upright male urination becomes too politically incorrect to tolerate in Western Europe any longer, legal citations may soon begin flying. The Naked Scientists website notes that a similar movement is also brewing in Germany, France and Holland. University of Louisville professor John Gamel believes that seated urination laws will not stop men from behaving in a less than sanitary manner while relieving themselves. According to Gamel’s statements in the Huffington Post, spatter caused during the “shake off” will still occur in Europe because “no man will want to shake” by sticking their hand inside a toilet. Feminists in some portions of Europe have begun carrying sings stating “Drop your trousers and sit” with a logo of a man urinating standing up with a big red “X” over the image. Some women are taking the fight against standing urination so seriously that placards have also been spotted with the wording, “Not another filthy puddle on MY bathroom floor!” to discourage standing while urinating at home. The Left Party is not at a loss for reasons to outlaw standing while urinating in Europe. UPI reports that supporters also believe sitting while urinating will reduce potential prostate issues and bolster the opportunity for a longer sex life.

The local Left Party on the Sormland County Council has advanced a motion that says men on the council should sit, rather than the more common standing, while urinating in the office restrooms, The Local reports. The party claims that seated urination is more hygienic for men as it decreases the likelihood of puddles. Besides being a more efficient way to evacuate the bladder, there are health benefits associated with sitting-while-peeing. The act reduces risk for prostate problems and also helps men achieve a longer, healthier sex life, according to the party. A representative of the Left Party said he hopes to eventually have sitting-only bathrooms. The Left Party’s Viggo Hansen, a substitute member of the county council and the man responsible for the proposal, told Sveriges Television, “We want to give men the option of going into a clean toilet.” Read more: http://dailycaller.com/2012/06/13/s...en-should-urinate-sitting-down/#ixzz2DJPQWsdF
Where is Netanyahu when we need him? We should have had NATO mercenaries stirring up a fake Swedish civil war yesterday.
Now that is very insightful, especially for a guy! (j/k, sort of) It's totally creepy to me and too. Boys are being told to take action with their toys, girls are told to look pretty and be a mommy. Those pageants are even worse! I can't think of a way to little girl more insecure in adult life than having her compete with her "sexy" looks from infancy. It's gross!!!
until you got punished for feeding the lights to your baby brother hoping that when he pooped it would light up for your mom. #don'ttrythisathome
