Well, it's official

American women are now legally livestock. I wonder how long it will take before their access to passports and foreign travel is removed.

Related passage from Allan Sherman in The Rape of the A*P*E* (1973):

In the year 584, in Lyons, France, 43 Catholic bishops and 20 men representing other bishops held the Council of Macon, which included the most peculiar debate since the world began a discussion which, for nonsensical content, surely exceeded the Mad Hatter's tea party. The subject of the debate was a serious world problem of the time: Are women human?

After many lengthy arguments, a vote was taken. The results were 32 yes, 31 no. Women were declared human by one vote.

(Imagine -- if one of those gentlemen had voted differently, Catholics today might be walking nude ladies on leashes up Park Avenue, waiting for them to pee on fireplugs.)

WikiP:Synod_of_Mâcon says that's a UL.

Although . . .

The 14th canon imposed a curfew against Jews, banning them from the streets at all times between Maundy Thursday and Easter Sunday. The 2nd canon prohibits Jews from talking to nuns.

Antisemitism instead of misogyny isn't a great improvement

I am disappoint. I have believed this UL for more than 40 years. 😭
