Gutsy call.

@redsteeze Dude, what have I been telling you about preventing women from getting educated? Now the president knows.

This shit horrible country isn't letting girls learn now? Is that who's up on the Alinksy clipboard checkbox now?

@TANSTAAFL23 my response is: why aren't we being more inclusive? Are the bigendered and genderless not deserving of an education? @redsteeze
