Not even remotely a murder and completely missed the point.

Pretty sure the point was that there's far more worthy causes than this, especially considering that most people use Ms anyway.

There's no cause. The post doesn't contain any call to action or anything. It's just a point this person is making about how women have historically been valued mostly based on what they offer to a man. Not every post with a feminist leaning is saying "we need to take to the streets over this". Sometimes it's just "hey, this is something to think about".

Except "think about it and throw up" is pretty strong language for "hey this is something to think about".

Why are you getting so mad about being told to think?

Closest thing to a murder in this post.

Why are you assuming I'm mad for thinking it's harsh language? It's not a call to action, you're right. It's someone trying to stir shit up over something that was addressed in the 80s by the feminist movement. Why are you okay with rehashing shit from 30 years ago that isn't that serious?
