On the 8th of March 2014,
A teacher tweeted nine times.
They were funny.
Not quite Anchorman,
but funny.
As promised in Tweet 1
it was a Big Moment for
A snorus of Whiteous Indignation.
A satire of Sultana's Nightmare,
called "When Ummah 2.0 went #PussyRiot"
except there was little punk
but deodorized transatlantic discourse.
And statesticles of collective shame.
Some started a hashtag against the man,
to fire him from his job.
This tool is called Character Hersassination,
Others wrote lengthy treatments on the nuances of feminism
and lumped the teacher with blame for all sorts of ghastly stuff.
The institutional tack
of the attack
felt sectarian.
Fajr, Zur, Asr, Magrib, Isha.
TWEET 1
Today is my favourite bakwas day of the year: Int'l Women's Day.
Be warned feminists. Prepare to earn your big moment.
TWEET 2
In honour of International Women's Day, today's updates will be generated by my highly developed feminine side.
TWEET 3
Yes, Int'l Women's Day has officially started. Or as it's more widely known, "Men not giving a monkeys that it's Int'l Women's Day."
TWEET 4
"So today is International Women's Day. It was actually meant to be yesterday but they took too long getting ready."
TWEET 5
Int'l Women's Day is great, but starting tomorrow, it's 364 International Men's Days again, so stick that in your oven and cook it.
TWEET 6
Anyway I don't care how much you hate it or think amazing International Women's Day is, y'all still can't drive.
Ay na'm.
TWEET 7
The sole objective of Int'l Women's Day is to see whether we, as men, can avoid being sexist for at least a day.
RETWEET 1 - TWEET 8
Women, nobody can make you feel inferior without your permission. #WID
TWEET 9
So that's a wrap guys - don't try to understand #IWD cos' it's like trying to understand women. Not worth it. =)
