Mo Dowd demands that people like her stop telling the story she loves to tell about single women
Sometimes, when I joke about how weddings are a big deal because they constitute a woman’s inclusion into the human race after being sponsored in by a man, I think to myself, “Amanda, perhaps you’re engaging in hyperbole. For while it’s creepy that so many people obsess over weddings and…
Shorter Dowd: Who I want to do should dicate the leader of the free world
I didn’t see this yesterday, and for which I feel a mixture of regret and gladness that I had one day more on earth without knowing that Maureen Dowd prefers to masturbate while thinking of douchebagy frat boy types over the sexy nerds. Not that I judge her preference, of…
