Get the Selectively Geniusmug. Lindsay the supervisor would order people she hated to do more work than everyone else (move the goalposts on them) and was quicker to try and get them fired if she hated them (a negative feeling towards them she would always deny having or say someone else felt that way if asked simply, plainly, and directly) whether they did their jobs as well as everyone else or not. She lived by the same kind of selective double standard she would always try and poke fun at others for having.

SHE'S JUST NOT READY FOR KIDS BECAUSE.... UM... DA ECONOMY! YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT! DA ECONOMY! THEY'RE NOT USING THEIR PUSSY AS A BEAR TRAP FOR RICH PEOPLE WHILE FUCKING ALL OF THE FAT COCKS!

Then women are engaging in selective reproduction. They're literally doing the thing you think is repugnant BUT IT'S WOMEN so they get a pass. Let's just exempt them for all the laws. That's what you real want. Not laws or rules for women and then men just do whatever without ever getting anything in return."
