Conversation in IRC:

This guy is talking about his sister, and here's a sliver of the conversation:

[thisguy] we were never close, she is almost 10 years older than me
[thisguy] Technically i am the head of the family being the eldest male
[serene] says who? which century is this in?
[thisguy] Not just time but certain 'artifacts' came my way merely because of my gender
[serene] forgive me for saying that's stupid
[serene] whenever someone tells me feminism is irrelevant, I'll think of you.

just remember, you can't really be a much of a dyke if you still like men!
