    Lol… “I’m speaking” or

    “Look at me!” Or “Pay attention to me!”

    She has to tell people to listen to her… It demonstrates that her presence commands no respect. She can’t just talk, and people listen. No, she is unimportant and interruptable.

      It likely resonates with many women who get spoken over by men a lot. It doesn’t matter if they are in a position of authority, or an expert, or the boss. They have a vagina, you see, so cannot really be in charge.

      I don’t think it’s a great slogan and comes across as rude, rather than collaborative, but I can understand why some like it.

        Haha, I love that all you got is an insult (a poor one), and you’re upvoted for it. It really shows the class of folks around here.

          Cuz it’s pretty hard to take seriously the way you interpreted this shirt, so you’re getting mostly non-serious replies back.

            Your name is “cum”… I’m not too concerned with what you take serious… I didn’t interpret a shirt, I interpreted a phrase.

            I don’t know why I hang out with all you public school kids. It’s honestly probably making me more dumb…

              Did you use public school as a derogatory remark?

                    Oh… Seriously? Public schools aren’t the only places kids go to learn… I know you aren’t that ignorant. You have heard of private schools, right?

      With an open field, who would you vote for president?

      Now given the field has two candidates, who do you think will do a better job between the two? I’m actually curious to hear your answers and why.

      Your comment here indicates you think being able to talk over others is an important part of the job. Why do you see that as an important attribute? Does the President of the most powerful country in the world often need to be the loudest person in the room? Do they need to dominate conversations, preventing other people from talking, to do their job effectively?

        Didn’t even imply that

        In conclusion, you’re trying to argue things I didn’t even say. But I do appreciate how your comment had no ad hominem attacks.

        But yes, I think a powerful person commands respect and can dominate a conversation. Dominating meaning with truth, clarity, intelligence, patience, and persuasiveness. And probably not saying something demeaning, like being talked to like a child, like “I’m talking.”

        Also, don’t immediately think I’m even impling ol trumpster has these qualities because I don’t think he does.

      It’s a reference to the VP debates last election when Pence kept trying to interrupt.

        Weiner

        In the heart of Russia’s cold expanse, Where shadows stretch and moments dance, A whisper grew into a roar, A call for change, a fierce uproar. Weiner

        The Kremlin’s walls, once firm and tall, Felt tremors from the people’s call. No longer would they live in fear, Their voices rising, bold and clear. Weiner

        From Moscow’s streets to far-off plains, The hunger for a shift remains. In unity, they stood as one, Their courage shining like the sun. Weiner

      Please, please just tell me you’re 10 years old. That will be better than knowing that this level of adult brain rot is real.

        Insults suggest you have nothing intelligent to add. Im sure that’s the issue here, but I’d love it if you would try again.

        I don’t know why I try. You obviously drank all the kool-aid, but give it a go.
