There is apparently only one taboo left for society to overcome and then we are hunky dory. The Beeb reports how a woman with depression was forced out of work due to become apathetic and crying all day. Being a Woman myself, I am outraged. We are naturally a more psychotic gender and should therefore be given leeway to sit at our desks and do no work through depressive lethargy. The idea that these sufferers should be retired through stress or denied promotion to an even more stressful position is just sexist.

Why do employers not do more to accommodate our hysterical needs? I urge the police to take the lead in this and supply stress-balls attachable to the tops of female officers' batons, to save us from madness. If they do not, they are failing to recognise the basic differences between men and women.

Men just have more get-up and go, They will not struggle on quietly, punishing society by drawing out the pain of their obviously incurable ailment. Instead they do the fair thing and either top themselves at the first sign of sadness or tell someone about their suffering with a demonstrative display. I cannot recall the last time I read about a female attacking someone in a brutal stabbing frenzy. And yet we go on and on about EQUALITY.

We're mental.
