Kassandra in Nevada was waiting for her order at a local coffee shop when she noticed this series of flyers on the bulletin board. Adds Kass: “Who knew there would be such offense taken by a fly fishing class for women?”

Someone should tell Bo that size doesn’t matter, and that he doesn’t need to feel so insecure, threatened and intimidated! After all, his facial hair is clearly much better than that woman’s…

There’s room enough for everybody. Never enough flyers for fly fishing, I always say.
(What the heck is that thing drawn on the first fly flyer supposed to be, a flying fiver? Diving dollar? Erupting can of aerosol Cheez Whiz?)

Way to go, Bo, reinforcing the idea that sports and activities such as fishing are gender-specific. It’s archaic mindsets like yours that make it necessary for the original poster to exist.

I’d be interested in the women- only Fly fishing clinic.
Love fly fishing!
and, much as I love men, it would be nice to enjoy a day of fishing with just other women and no men around.
let the flaming begin, I guess. I don’t see why people are irked at women wanting to spend time with just other women sometimes.

It has been my experience that women-for-women courses cater to women who are afraid to appear unfeminine in front of men. That is, women who won’t ask questions or request clarifications in front of them for fear that the boys or the men in the class will call them out as girls. You get second rate everything all your life if you hide from everywhere you perceive the bullies to be, whether they’re men or women.
Having said that, #3 gets my money and attendance, hands down! w00t!

I just wish she hadn’t used the “Papyrus” font. 1995 called and wants it back.

Doesn’t Bo know that Women’s Fly Fishing Clinic is a front for Lesbians’ Cunnilingus Clinic?
Cunnilingus basics taught by women, for women, on women.

Bah. Forget all of these, I’m going to hold out until I see a flyer for Curtis Mayfield’s Super Fly Fishing Clinic.

In regards to photo 3–Personally, I wonder if there’s not some apostrophe abuse going on here, or perhaps poor personal nickname choice at best.
It’s “flies” you’re making for “fly fishing.” Who ties ONE fly and calls it a day? So the advertisement sort of seems grammatically incorrect.
How about “Flies’ Fishing Clinic” ? Just sayin’.
