Women hate everything which strips off the tinsel of sentime

Summary

This quote suggests that women dislike anything that exposes the superficiality of romantic emotions because it diminishes their power. It implies that sentimentality serves as a weapon for women, giving them an advantage in relationships or influencing others. By rejecting anything that unveils the facade of sentimental behavior, women retain their ability to control and manipulate situations to their advantage. This explanation acknowledges the perspective portrayed in the quote while leaving room for individual interpretation and discussion.

Well, while you were in the bathroom, I sat down at this picnic table here in Bumblefug, Kentucky, and noticed that someone had carved that GOD HATES FAG, which, aside from being a grammatical nightmare, is absolutely ridiculous.
