Yep his and Carol Ann Duffy's. She annoys me unbelievably. Our English teacher asked why there's no word for women who hate men, but there's mysoginy (sp?) for men who hate women. Someone said because no women hate men, only for someone to shout out "Carol Ann Duffy does!"

One of my friends had a very loud argument with my teacher about Carol Ann Duffy, he said that we should disregard everything she writes because she has such a hang up about men. He argued that she needed to get laid and then she'd shut up. This of course ignores the fact that she's a lesbian, but the look on my teacher's face was priceless.

Aw she's still sick!?

Not so much. She just wants another day off school.

Haha a boy in our class, every time we read the anthology shouted out "Is it cos she's a lezzer, miss!?" and our teacher was new that year and so didn't really know how to handle it! She just tried to look angry, then ended up in fits of giggles!

Hmm sounds like my brother to want another day off-but you can go into the same room as her now, surely! Fake illnesses aren't infectious I don't think...though lying might be.

We asked the teacher a similar question. She rhetorically asked "What is it with teenage boys and lesbians?"

My sister's not faking per se but she could go into school if she really wanted too. No one is going to make her though, not worth the risk really. Also she's watching the Disney channel, so I'm definitely not going in there.

Well the anthology wasn't the best for it! We had "Isn't she a lezzer, miss?" and "Isn't he a big gay, miss?" Plus the odd interpretations of Lord of the Flies!

Ooh okay, you definitely don't want to go in there then!

I know, I've seen everything Hannah Montana has ever done and I've seen both High School Musical films just because I have a little sister

I think English is a bit like that. The way our English Literature is interpreted it appears most authors are horny, perverted bastards.

Excuses, excuses!

This coursework text needs no interpretation to make it perverted, and it doesn't surprise me that it's like this considering the teacher who chose it. We did The Merchant of Venice for coursework with her, and she insisted on showing us the film version. Not good.

This year we did Hamlet, the film's just rubbish. No sexually explicit scenes in it, although Ophelia does simulate sex and masturbation in front of the King and Queen. That was just odd though.

Erm...why did she do that...? Is it in the play somehow?

It might be. The director may also have had the hots for Ophelia. The perverted teacher who directed our production of Hamlet was insistent upon it's inclusion though... weird, eh?

If you go to a boys school, do you have to recruit girls for that or do you do it like Shakespeare would've. I can imagine that scene could've been made quite funny by a jokey boy.

Nope we use girls from the local girls school. So it wasn't funny, more awkward and creepy.

Eep! That sound *very* creepy.

"Bitch"?

Haha! I wouldn't have had the guts to say it, anyway!

"I dunno Miss. What is it with teachers and crappy pro-militant feminist poetry?"
