sisters before misters

The unwritten law that dictates that a the wishes of an unmarried woman's or girl's female friends trump those of a men she wants to have a relationship with. This law exists to protect said woman from being roosterpecked or whipped and her boyfriend's a pig or a man slut.
Better known as ladies first and to hell with your boyfriend.
Yo, lady, don't let that male chauvanist pig tell you what to do. He thinks you're just another piece of ass. After all, it's sisters before misters.

TWA

Trouble With Authority. Said of a chronically rebellious person.
This kid is said to have ODD, or Oppositional Defiant Disorder. That's just a fancy-schmancy way of saying the brat has TWA!

TWAT BLOCK

To do a female friend a favor by keeping her from getting it on with some unworthy male. The noblest thing to do for a friend.
My friend has gotten involved with an absolute pig! He's such a man-whore that the only right thing to do is to twat block her so she doesn't get some disease.

3. 69
1. What's the score?
I got the magic number

clean

Without any tatoos or body piercings, except maybe for pierced ears.
Even though my friends have tattoos and body piercings, I choose to remain clean. I don't want to get something on my skin I may not want to keep when I get old.

paleoliberal

Old school, pre-1960's style liberal; center-left populist.
A paleoliberal typically espouses the following:
1. protection of the right of workers to organize and bargain collectively
2. protection of the interests of the underdog against the whims of the powerful.
3. supports the right to individual privacy within reasonable limits; does not include abortion rights (see definition #2) or gay marriage, but does include keeping the government from snooping on your reading habits.
4. The right for minorities to be free from discrimination in employment, housing, public accomodations, etc., thus protecting their rights from the tyranny of the majority without diluting majority rule.
5. the inherent, affirmative right to vote and have your votes counted as you intended, without interference from fraudulently programmed voting machines designed to "flip" votes.
6. The right to life means the right to a decent life, for both born and unborn. Paleoliberals don't divorce the sanctity of life from the quality of life, unlike Christofascists or left-liberals.
7. May or may not support the death penalty, although I personally oppose it except for war criminals, deposed dictators, wartime traitors, and/or serial killers who pose an escape risk.
8. Embrace gender equity. Man and woman are to be treated as equals under the eyes of the law and their differences are to be respected, not derided.
I can't wait for Bob Casey, Jr. to trounce Rick "Man on Dog" Santorum! We'll have a true paleoliberal Dem representing Pennsylvania, as opposed to a right-wing VIRGINIAN posing as a PA Republican!
