defining feminism - (it kept going)

I hear what you're saying (about preferring to hang out with "those who take things, including themselves, and ESPECIALLY "serious" subjects, lightly."), but... I do wonder whether or not you'd feel differently if you were a "woman" yourself (or if you were perceived as female). It is rather difficult to laugh off abuse... and sometimes outwardly laughing at abusive things allows them to continue (even if you do laugh inwardly).

You say that you are stuck with measuring people by their intelligence and sense of humor. So... basically you're saying that you measure people with how similar to you they are? Is it that they have no sense of humor, or that they don't find the same things funny as you do?

I don't think that Feminists have no sense of humor... however... I think they're DAMN bitter, and refuse to take any further abuse with a smile.

You might call them "raw nerves".
