Education

so recently i wrote a paper for a mr. kevin smith. it was for english 50, i figured sure easy, whatever. as it turns out the teacher is a liberal idiot and i had to show just how dumb some "professors" are (sometimes).


if you cant read it it says i should "use gender-neutral language" instead of the word mankind.
later in the paper - which is on animal testing - she tries to tell me to avoid the word "execution".



"do you really want to use this word? why not just say 'research' or 'experimentation'?".

It was a sad day when I realized that at least half of everything I'm learning is bullshit

is 'womankind' even a word? and I think it's more sexist anyway; would 'itkind' be more appealing? XD
btw added you to my friends list on my blog :P

Animals used in tests are not bred for the purpose of execution. They are bred for research.
There are places where animals are bred for execution. There are places where "hunters" can go to shoot an animal that has been kept in a cage and is only released so you can shoot it. Dick Cheney likes these places.
If you go to such a place in Africa, not only can you kill a caged lion, they will even drug it for you so you can safely approach it first.
