My log of times bygone and of those to come
Sexism, Anyone?
I used to be a feminist.
I mean, who wouldn’t like women? 😉
(Unless, O’course they’ve changed the meaning of feminism in the recent years :D)
It can happen, you know?!
I was perusing through Barron’s wordlists, as usual.
And an ordinary day just turned a little suckier as I encountered this –
I quote from Barron’s 23:2 [yeah, That’s wordlist 23, page 2 :P]
Husband(v) – Conserve, Spare, Save.
Husbandry(n) – Frugality, thrift.
I mean, what kind of a sexist denotation is that?!
I deeply resent it.
Husbands do much more than that.
Why not define it as
Husband(v) – Make love, (or even) Watch TV or Play video games all day
(or at least,)
Go out and earn?!
Boy(no pun intended), Just when you think men are finally making progress..
What a bummer!
TL;DR: I used to be a feminist. I no longer am.
Guys are always stingy when it comes to shopping. So it is perfect to the description in Barrons 🙂 Good observation though 🙂 V got to know which wordlist u r studying 🙂
An sms conversation with ‘the feminist’
me: i liked your ‘feminist’ blog.. it indeed is an awkward .. blah blah blah….
The feminist : Comments on the websites will be appreciated
me: i am quite practicing husbandry as far as giving away comments on the websites for blogs are concerned
The feminist: stfu and comment …
THIS is funnier than the blog :D.
And vini, Barron’s 23:2??? Even Manju boy didn’t stoop to such levels 😀
hehe…I agree with ya Vini
Damn…we men spend more than women (when it comes to spending wisely 😀 )
Husband(v) – Conserve, Spare, Save.
Husbandry(n) – Frugality, thrift.
wow, this is a nice entry and I can never forget the meaning now and you know why
