So the folks at Terra Footware<\/a> have some ads out. These ads are funny,
\nhave sex women in them and promote the idea that those women might actually
\nsometimes wear boots. Don’t take my word for it, go watch the ad online<\/a>. In addition, now that I know who
\nthey are I think I really like some of the shoes (specifically the “Oxidizer”
\nathletic shoe and the “Spanner” mid cut boot in brown and\/or black).<\/p>\n

Obviously, this is making the radfems crazy<\/a>, I mean, doesn’t Terra know only
\nchicks that hate men wear boots? Or something. I don’t pretend to understand. I
\nknow that it has cute girls who don’t seem ashamed of their bodies (there is
\nsome nudity) or their fashion choices… so obviously the ms. folks hate
\nthem.<\/p>\n

Predictably, the insane fem posse called for a boycott and a letter writing
\ncampaign. In my attempt to help, I sent the email shown below to the company at
\nthe address the panic stricken masses provided ( sales@terrafootwear.com<\/a> ). I suggest
\nyou offer your support as well.<\/p>\n

\n

Since I am sure you are getting a lot of hate mail, I wanted to take a moment
\nand let you know that not everyone on the planet hates men, pretty women or has
\nlost all touch with the concept of humor.<\/p>\n

Please remember that most of the people who are threatening to boycott you
\ndon\u2019t wear shoes most of the time, would probably boycott you because they don\u2019t
\nlike something else about your company and generally aren\u2019t ever happy.<\/p>\n

Rock on, do what you want, don\u2019t knuckle under.<\/p>\n

By the way, if you want to see the insanity and hatred, go look at this
