May not. I heard a story this morning on the radio that seemed unbelievable about a woman who was on a toilet for two years. The radio DJs speculated as to which news sources would pick it up and bet on <a href="http://cnn.com">CNN </a> being one of them. <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/03/13/woman.in.bathroom.ap/index.html">The whole article can be found here</a>.</p>
<p>Her boyfriend would take care of her while she stayed there due to a phobia. When she finally was moved the toilet was surgically removed. There are better ways in life to get on the front page of <a href="http://www.cnn.com">CNN</a>.</p>
<p>It baffles me that after even a few hours the boyfriend would not have sought help but in his own words he is quoted as saying &#8220;She is an adult; she made her own decision,&#8221; said her boyfriend, Kory McFarren. &#8220;I should have gotten help for her sooner; I admit that. But after a while, you kind of get used to it.&#8221;</p>
<p>When things are bad in life there&#8217;s always worse&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anyone that knows me is aware of the fact that I&#8217;m very outspoken against this whole &#8220;feminist movement&#8221; crap.  I&#8217;ve reiterated time and time again that women have gotten all uppity and ruined a perfectly good thing.</p>
<p>Now, don&#8217;t get me wrong; there are some good things that came out of feminism.  We&#8217;re not treated like weak, incapable morons (although, this has it&#8217;s downsides).  Men began to look at us as human beings for once (which didn&#8217;t last long due to the fact that we stopped acting like human beings and started acting like cock-hungry beasts.).  Just to list a couple.</p>
<p>I guess the thing that baffles me the most is: why on Earth would anyone <i>fight</i> for the right to <i>work</i>?  Do you know what I would do and who I would kill to be a housewife?  </p>
<p>Now men look at us as equals.  &#8220;Well if she <i>can</i> work then she <i>should</i> work.  It completely goes against the little phrase I&#8217;ve lived my entire life by:  &#8220;If you keep people&#8217;s expectations of you low, then people won&#8217;t expect much of you.&#8221;</p>
<p>Maybe I&#8217;m just one lazy son-of-a-bitch, but I&#8217;m actually pretty upset that a group of women would think it&#8217;s okay to speak for all of us.  If I lived during the 50s and 60s I would have been FURIOUS!  And I may have choked a bitch or two.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s just my opinion though and I&#8217;m sure some people will be pretty angry about this post.  But if you&#8217;re not and you&#8217;re looking for a housewife: let me know.</p>
