Hi, Angie.
This one really got me:
“I seek publisher for the attached article expressing possible disadvantages of the theory or concept of feminism.”
On top of everything else, does he not realize that you, a female business person, are the publisher? The sheer lunacy of these things is jaw-dropping. Just when I think I’ve seen it all or heard it all, I find out the abyss goes even deeper.
Keep ’em coming.
Regards,
Marsha
