Hatespeak is usually more honest than lovespeak, and it's always better than doublespeak.

I prefer for a woman's most private of areas to have as much hair as Carlos Santana's entire band, head to toe, circa 1972.

Jim Goad
In my long, long years toiling around the publishing industry, I've found that women simply don't stick to the writing with the same fervor that men do.
Jim Goad
I didn't see much besides Melbourne and a quick trip down to the Twelve Apostles, but all the Aussies I encountered were good-spirited and had a fine sense of humor.
Jim Goad
Homosexuality is genetically hardwired but race and gender are only ideas. OK. Just trying to keep up.
Jim Goad
The leftist drive for control is insatiable.
Jim Goad
It amazes me that some people who ordinarily can recognize autocratic bullying, tacky sloganeering, and - especially - camp value are unable to spot it in this Hate Scare that grips the Western world.
Jim Goad
People can be so heartless and dirty.
Jim Goad
More than most, I believe I'm highly attuned to how heresies eventually become mainstream belief systems and how the vast majority of people who consider themselves 'edgy' are those who only embraced radical ideas LONG after it became safe for them to do so.
Jim Goad
I'll argue anyone into the dust when it comes to facts.
Jim Goad
It's not exactly courageous to be an anti-racist these days a hundred years ago, it was.

When I see two women kissing, my only physical reaction is a strong desire to vomit in both of their mouths.
