Related: About this forumRichardson High ‘dating expert’ gets schooled by students

Justin Lookadoo, former juvenile probation officer, has stirred up an audience with such dating advice as girls need to shut up and let boys do more of the talking, or that boys are naturally dangerous and adventurous while girls are soft and gentle.
Im awfully tempted today to thump some administrative noggins up at Richardson High School.
This week, during instructional time, the school hosted a quasi-religious pep rally riddled with Eisenhower-era gender stereotypes masquerading as straight talk for hipster teens.
When people got mad, the school district hedged with a mealy mouth apology to anybody who might have taken offense.
In fairness, the school principal responded to the growing furor late Thursday with an announcement that the speaker will not be invited back.

I've gotta admit, I LOVE these guys. They're great! How often do you run into someone who openly advertises that they are an insufferable asshole? I mean, man that's convenient! Walking down the street and you see one of these clowns, you can say "that, my friends, is a monumental hole of asses!" and not feel bad for judging, because... well, they ARE!

There's individuality, then there's creepiness disguised as individuality.

At least that was written in the comments in the link mentioned in post #2.

I feel for Texan liberals.
