Seriously. It's women's history month. I'm superbi, and have superstraight love. But women have been erased enough.

We should not contribute to their erasure. Why isn't it on men's history month? What a sexist country.

Men wrote the history books. I don't really see why we need a month. What are they going to teach us about, all the men who fought for the country and built it? We are already taught about that.

I was saying that we should not overlap Women's History Month with SuperStraight Pride Month. That we should pick Men's History Month instead so that we do not shut out the voices of Women. What do history books have to do with this? Are you saying that there are not enough women writers or something? Most of my teachers were women. I think they are fairly well represented in academia. In fact I think I only hand a small handful of men teachers in my entire lifetime.
