before you try and tell me that women have completely caught up and feminism is no longer needed, go read this, and see how strange it is.

ka-ping yee has created a tool that translates english websites into a different sort of english. it switches male pronouns for female ones, male names for female ones. very strange, but eye-opening.

Regendered: Google News

the tool, if you'd like to look at another webpage, is at http://regender.com/index.html.

Men really *do* seem to control the world, don't they?
