Childhood Raped - Again

[Norgy]

Okay, why do people need to over-analyse The Wind In The Willows?

It was, along with Astrid Lindgren's "The Brothers Lionheart" my fave bedtime story.

You know, I blame you gays for this. For over-analysing everything.

THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS IS A NICE STORY FOR CHILDREN!

You know, if I learned anything in the 2.5 semesters of German literature at uni it was that you can read anything into a story if you like and can argue the point.

Our example was Goethe's Werther and we read interpretations ranging from National Socialist to Communist to Structuralist to Existentialist and a couple others.

So yeah, you can interpret anything any way you like, and anyone can rape anything in that way.

That reminds me, I need to buy another bag of those.

Well, gays are at fault for everything that has gone wrong in society.  However, I think the proliferation and meaninglessness of post-secondary education might have something to do with it.  People get education and training in disecting the great works of the past.  Then they get a job as a cashier at Wal-Mart.  They turn their recently-acquired skills on what's around them.

Actually, I for one gonna agree and say that you are probably right in "blaming" gays for this.

After all, deconstruction is what gays and lesbians excel at. This is for a couple of reasons:

1. GLBT people are both insiders and outsiders, and thus have a good understanding of popular culture but at the same time have a penchant for viewing things differently, due to being outside the mainstream, as it were.

2. The most popular "themes" in deconstruction are gender, sexuality and patriarchy - three topics that interest gays and lesbians a lot.

So yeah, we are out to rape your childhood and then prove you are secretly gay for liking Spiderman.

I am a weirdo, I never liked superhero stuff.

what if I read Powergirl and Red Sonja?

edit: oh, right. I am objectifying women and thus reinforcing patriarchy.

what if I read Powergirl and Red Sonja?

Then you're transgender.

your answer is better as it's gay friendlier.

marti may be pleased to know that Toronto is so gay friendly that many homosexuals have become heterosexuals in order to maintain their cherished outsider status and deconstructuralist credentials.

Soon, they'll make Winnie The Pooh gay. Not the Disney one, he IS gay, but the old A.A. Milne one.



Say, Tigger, how about some anal?

This is quite the case with those getting a degree in a language. Pretty much useless unless you are going into teaching, really.

Speaking of Astrid Lindgren, wasn't she a dyke?

Lots of writers are. William Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde, all feminist writers...
