Personally I think Marcia is right in her statement about men having no right to say anything to her about abortion since THEY can never have one. I feel the same way about slavery. What right do my slaves have to speak to me as a white slave owner about if I should own them when they can never know what it is like to be a white slave owner?? What's that you say? There's a moral question here that is 'above' the mere fact of being white or black? Tish tosh. I have several friends, some of the black who feel as I do. What's next? Someone will say a Judge has a right to pass judgement on a murderer having never killed a person himself! How can he ever know what it was like for the murderer? Smacks of imposing values, doesn't it? Maybe even (gasp) RELIGIOUS values! Look, under the bed! It's , it's Jerry Falwell! (Wish I had this line to use on my Mom when I was a kid! "But Mom, you don't know what it's like to be a growing boy!") OR MAYBE EVEN A WOMAN (one of those 'funny' kind we see around lately) WILL TRY TO TELL A MAN ABOUT - RAPE!!!! Wouldn't that be a gas! Marcia, next time your SO cranks about your PMS tell him to piss off, eh? Lov ya Keep thinkin' Ken Arndt

What about BLACK slave owners? I mean, after all, we'll never know what it's like to be a black slave owner. Would any of the darker skinned net users like to make me an offer for Ken? How 'bout the lighter skinned ones? Albinos? Oh never mind. >OR MAYBE EVEN A WOMAN (one of those 'funny' kind we see around lately) WILL >TRY TO TELL A MAN ABOUT - RAPE!!!! Wouldn't that be a gas! I'm sure you've read all about it in those magazines you buy downtown. >Keep thinkin' If the entire net-community staged a "think-in", it could not possibly compensate for the mental void you represent. >Ken "rectal/cranial inversion" Arndt -- Charles Forsythe CSDF@MIT-VAX "You are a stupid fool." -Wang Zeep "I'm not a fool!" -The Hated One
