[QUOTE="Frood, post: 234091, member: 37"] I had to take electives in the early nineties or I couldn't get my degree. I didn't want to do anything more than I had to because I was also working 35-50 hours per week besides going to university full time. I was burnt out and hoping for any 101 class. So I settled for Sociology 101 and my professor was a hairy toed Freedom Bus rider from the sixties who always wore Birkenstocks...she was also a flaming lesbian with a buzz cut and a gnarly moustache to boot. ....but it was the early nineties, so she was polite and respectful, and so was I. She leapt into [B]Gemeinschaft-[B]Gesellschaft [/B][/B]lessons and then she used the Amish to highlight how she saw the difference between community based versus individual based societies. I bit my lip for a number of her lessons until she just got stupid. See, my full time job was working in an Amish group for nearly two years at that point, and through one way or another, me asking about how things worked, or sussing stuff out on my own because whoever I asked about stuff was prevented from saying stuff directly, but still wanted to tell me in a joke, anecdote, or riddle what I asked, I knew that Professor bitch was off her rocker. I had already encountered it months before where an ex-gf called me up and said "is it true that the Amish only have sex with a sheet and a hole in it?" because her professor had written papers on it... These aren't the kind of things you ask ANY workmates... ...but it came up with a newly married workmate and I apologized before I put the question and context to him... and he smiled and simply said "why ruin a good sheet"... ...so I knew my ex's Professor was full of shit. I knew most of the things my ex said her professor was teaching her class already was bullshit. I'd seen the greatest diesel +powered mechanical shops ever, phone booths, taxi services on demand... pumped water using exhaust pressure in stored air tanks to draw up the flow on demand. These were really crafty people... But MY professor wanted to use [B]Gemeinschaft-Gesellschaft [/B]to point out where communal is greater than individual nature, then tried to use the Amish as her springboard. ...I wasn't having any of that. I had never spoken up before that point.... not for me, not for others... but I went at her EVERY time she tried to use the Amish to push her point. She actually tried to tell me to more or less STFU. Anyway, that bitch gave me my only mediocre mark. That was the early nineties. I'd fail every class now. [/QUOTE]
