Eve,

As I reached inward to summon the appropriate amount of righteous indignation to respond to the male bashing part of this piece, I was repeatedly interrupted by my own out-loud laughter. Finally my wife chimed in with, “Share with the class” and urged me to read several portions aloud to her.

Of course, I am one of the few males who never succumbed to the primal male urges of base humor … (ok maybe once or twice 🤷🏻‍♂️But thankfully never in the presence of a woman)

I will watch the Pam doc now for sure. A woman close to me who has worked with Pamela closely for several years reports that she is "more beautiful inside than out", her words.

And I gained newfound respect for Amy when I read that she consciously channelled Ronnie Spector in her act, so cool… and funny.

Anyway thanks for the piece, I think I need to upgrade to paid now.

Best,

Cyril (where’s Methodius?)

You are such a brilliant writer. Thank you.

This read made my day. The strength and intelligence of young, female leaders gives this middle-aged woman hope for future generations.

Great piece. My sense of humor is my saving grace. Without it I’d surely disappear. The world seems so chaotic and demoralizing now. Like the pot got stirred and all the sediment got brought to the surface, and now it lives there, prominently displayed as being in charge. Righteously in charge. It’s sediment that forgot to settle back down but thinks otherwise. It’s the likes of MTG and the other cronies who are sediment gone wacky. I fear for us who are “others.”Thanks for being an advocate for women, for people doing their best to not mess up, for Jews. 💕

Funny .. I know several woman named Eve . Never once did the where is Adam thing enter my mind . Men who are insecure tend to be wise ass when the first meet a woman - nature

Adam is playing with his trouser snake. Unwashed...Sad. Lily James played Pamela Anderson in "Pam and Tommy". Before that she played the typist for Sir Winston L. S. Churchill , The Duke of London, in " The Finest Hour". Corbyn and Williamson consider Winston Churchill to be an illegitimate son of "a Rotschild" and his mother, Lady Jenny, a "New York Jewess".

"We punished [Amy] for what made her great." Who is "we"? You really know how to insult your readers.
