Why do I feel like I am being ganged up on here? Are you boys trying to
hurt my little girl feelings? Damn, a girl has to be tough on this list.
Good thing I got past the "sensitive, be nice to me 'cause I'm a girl"
meme stage. But I admit, being a woman in a "man's world" does have its
benefits. Sure, a woman's feelings can be hurt, but a woman can
methodically disarm the male ego and right when he is most
vulnerable, go in for the kill. Nothing personal
Reed, that last sentence is in honor of Tim. He's ruthless.
