> And then there are the women (or should it be something else? How do they pluralize 'womyn', anyway?) who get extremely insulted and huffy if a man happens to, say, hold a door open for them. I encountered THAT particular issue during a discussion in my humanities class last semester. One girl went off about how it was condescending, implied weakness, etc.

And then there are those times when you just want to hit someone because some guy opened the door and let it slam in your face. THAT, to me, is more insulting and condescending than a supposed "implied weakness."

Mi"yes, that has happened to me"a
