More on Koko the Gorilla: Third Woman Sues
posted by Matt on 08:12 PM February 26th, 2005
News I would laugh but it's so pathetic I can't. A third woman is suing Koko's caretakers over their request that she expose her breasts to the gorilla. Bear in mind, ALL the particpants here in this flap are female. [First post on MANN about this topic is here.]

Eventually though, I am sure someone will find a man to sue.

Perhaps these women looked like gorillas to Koko, assuming they were feminists ;)

Joke by a comedian:

Comedian: She was very ugly.
Audience: How ugly was she?
Comedian: She was so ugly, she had a job in the cake shop - they used to push her face in the dough to make gorilla biscuits.

After Rodney Rude, Australian comedian.

Someone needs to take the gorilla to Mardi Gras. Teach her how to throw beads, and no one will even know she's a gorilla. I think I see a TV movie in this.

Koko is actually remarkably sensitive and intelligent, and has mastered a vocabulary of over 1,000 words in sign language.

When she saw that old bag's rack, Koko covered her eyes, shrieked and signed "Stop! I don't want to see them! I'm going blind!"

"I would rather rip my nose off with a can opener."

"I'd rather jump off the Sears Tower, head first, onto a thumb tack."

"I'd rather play, naked twister, with every one of the golden girls."

Let's assume it's true that Koko can say "Show me your tits" in sign language. Then somebody must have taught her. So why in hell would anybody want to teach a gorilla to say that? Unless you are a perverted lesbian who likes to have sex with female monkeys.

I am glad to see that a woman, Francine Patterson is getting sued for sexual harassment in the workplace. It is not out of spite that I say this.

I am glad to see this because if more women supervisors and employers were subjected to these law suits then something would be done to stop them.

Just as if more women were obligated to pay child support then more equitable laws would be passed in that area.

All in all, it is good to read about a female getting sued for sexual harassment.

What goes around comes around. Let's keep on giving it a little push. A lot of men are fed up with the double standards of gender feminist law.

I hope they all get sued eventually. It would only be justice.

Koko is not politically correct.

She asks for what she wants. I'm sure from her gorilla perspective that she can't understand why these crazy humans continually wear these cloth masks. I would bet that in gorilla culture a good deal of bonding and closeness is related to seeing the others body. How strange we must seem. How honest and refreshing for her to ask to see the participants bodies.

What an honor it would be to disrobe for Koko and meet her request. BFD. Take off your shirt. BFD. What's so oppressive about taking off your shirt? If Koko could understand this law suit I am sure she would be laughing her ass off at our stupidity.

The only thing I can see that might be underhanded would be if the interpreter is not telling the truth. My guess is that they are telling the truth. It is our feminist culture that is the biggest joke.

Exactly Tom

Koko also has a fascination with all infants, being a female without one. Should her keen interest in seeing, smelling, or god frobid touching an infant be considered child abuse?

We live in a culture likely to say yes...or more specifically a culture scared to death to say NO!!!!

DEEP THOUGHTS TO PONDER:

# Which would seem more odd, a city full of naked people, or every non human animal you see dressed up in fashionable clothes? Hmmm?

I went to the Academy Awards in Hollywood tonight and was in the crowd on the corner of Highland and Hollywood Blvd. I was only there to protest and "p _ _ _" people off. I couldn't help noticing that clevage was in great abundance. You didn't even need sign language or beads.

It would have been a great night for Koko. It was the kind of place where she could have stood alongside the freaky people and blended right in - just another primate in the crowd.

"Did you take a sign to the Awards? What did it say?"

It was very "anti" the mainstream politics of the Hollywood crowd, but not directly relevant to men's rights so I don't want to violate the spirit of nonpartisanship at mensactivism.

I did have a beautiful moment where I refuted a few died in the wool California gender feminist for several minutes, using facts, figures, and sources, after they heckled us (they think they're so oppresed), all within earshot of the captive audience on our street corner. Mensactivism and NCFMLA have trained me well. Mouths were open. I really took heart at one point, when a lady in our group said, "American people are the most privileged people in the world." Probably the best part was when the feminist talked back to me and got buried in my refutation of the fallacy and lunacy of her ideology. I don't hide my men's rights activism, when I participate in other groups as was evident today. If they can't deal with that, then they're a part of the problem and not a part of the solution. I'm very fortunate that I have so many good things I can productively spend my time on.

After the event we went to a restaurant in Hollywood for dinner, and I actually shared with some in my group that there are over 700 taxpayer funded women's studies programs on college campuses in America running 10's of thousands of classes, all preaching a hatred of men, etc. It was very well received. We talked about getting together again. I found a lot of common ground for men's rights issues in that group.
 
Lastly, I think you can find the info you asked about if you goto FreeRepublic and look for postings under academy awards on 2/28 after the pictures are up.

4 or 5 women at the restaurant. Some didn't join us. The ones at the restaurant responded in varying degrees. You tend to find the activist Moms in this CA group have a good idea what gender feminism is, and don't want it anywhere their kids, their families, or them.

So far all of them have expressed delight at hearing about the Independent Women's Forum web site.
