That's a very optimistic view of the military. And when I say "very optimistic", I mean "can I have some of those 'shrooms?"

"Words you learned long before you had to go to school."

...and possible words he failed to learn during toilet training. No only means no when the person saying no has the power to enforce it.

Spoken like a man with a wide experience in <strike>rape</strike> roofies.

<i>Men who join the military are responding to widespread, innate male urges—the urge to break things and kill people, for example.</i>

1. I was in the military for a few years. (I'm not sure if Mr. Derpy was, but I'd doubt it since he was a Brit during Vietnam). As it happened, I joined the Chair Force specifically to <i>avoid</i> breaking things and killing people, despite feeling that I owed some duty to the US of A.

2. So, I'm not entirely sure those are "innate" male urges. On the other hand, reading this does make me want to break John Derbyshire's nose, so he may have something of a point.

He strikes me as someone who has heard about vaginas but have never actually seen one.

Um...am not sure what I said to get comment deleted, was just expressing my outrage at MRA douchebags?

ETA: Almost seemed like it might be an automated filter as comment was deleted AS I posted it? Not complaining, just confused and worried I accidentally broke a rule or something :P
