Reading comprehension

Is not the big thing among bigots. See, I wrote this post about who’s angry, about Guy White and his complete ignorance on the study he referred to, his ignorane on evo psych, on biology, on sociology etc etc. He did not even allow a pingback to his post.

Woman wants breast reduction – men across the world weep
