theoretically practical
today begins a new step in the life of the clerk - practical legal training courses.
as opposed to their title these are lectures about the theory of practice rather than actually practicing so the name is deceptive. i endured a bout with a feminist who is not down with the species of the opposite sex - this is counterproductive no?
she propounds ideas of equality and then follows it with a little men bashing - apparently acceptable to be sexist from a female to male perspective but objectify woman and she'll varnish her kitchen floor with your balls...
i read a sweet little article, well more of a how to be the perfect 1955 wife, step by step guide in housewives weekly, and thought, hell that aint half bad... if i worked all day, damn right i expect my dinner lovingly prepared by the home sitter to be warm and on the table as i would be famished on my return from the making of our livelihood. the home maker better not trouble me with the frivolities of the broken washer dryer when i enter and should rather usher me with kind words and warm or cold drinks. the children (not gonna happen they are too bugging) would be playing out of earshot and if within my ears range, quietly.... and if it was cold there should be a roasty fire warming my toes - splendid where'd i sign up this sounds great - ooops sorry was i missing the point? this is somehow bad and the poor woman. what else should she be doing with her day if she isn't out working?
hard core feminism bores me. the willy nilly application of constitutional rights so that anything you say is amis, becomes unconstitutional behaviour, also boring. the point of rushing through this section of work and peeking at the domestic violence act which seemed to be the only practical part of the whole lesson, pointless.
what i gathered from my one and only exposure to gender law: women should be able to do everything that men can and more, men should be oppressed cos its their turn having done it for so long, domestic violence is not a defence if you kill the son of a bitch that has been body slamming you for the last 15 years and believing that this lecture will in anyway supplement the mammoth amount of notes that now definitely need to be read - futile!
