I think this BLATENT sexism speaks to many levels of the society and I for one could get behind the charge! Think of all the sisters suffering in this napkin headed organization! I'm tired of the suffering! Lets all work together to END THE SUFFRAGE OF WOMEN WORLDWIDE WITHIN THE NEXT YEAR!
End the suffrage of woman in 07!
