			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, the manufacturer of the <a href="http://smrtlernins.com/2009/12/10/secular-thursday-math-is-too-hard-for-girls/">sexist &#8220;I&#8217;m too pretty for math!&#8221;</a> shirt I posted about seven months ago has apparently stumbled on my blog and decided to spam it. Isn&#8217;t that  professional of her!</p>
<p>Spam comments will not be approved. I was more than willing to approve this woman&#8217;s comment (and did, in fact) for response, but I won&#8217;t tolerate spam. I regularly approve dissenting opinions, but I&#8217;m not willing to be harassed. Flooding my blog with comments will accomplish nothing other than a quick click on the &#8220;spam&#8221; button. I&#8217;m also not so naive as to believe that a large volume of random people would suddenly discover a 7 month old post and all leap to defense of this woman, so spare me the &#8220;I enjoy your blog&#8230;&#8221; nonsense. I know who my readers are. </p>
<p>Toughen up or get out of the business, honey, but you&#8217;re wasting your time spamming me. I only have conversations with grown-ups here. </p>
<p>ETA: Received another comment from someone saying that the &#8220;too pretty for math&#8221; lady didn&#8217;t <i>ask</i> them to spam; they&#8217;re just doing it out of the kindness of their heart. If that&#8217;s the case, ladies, you&#8217;re doing your friend a disservice. Bad reviews are part of business. Perhaps this will be a lesson about thinking about the greater implications of your products, because reinforcing sexist and negative stereotypes is usually not taken as &#8220;fun.&#8221; </p>
<p>However, I have received my favorite comment so far! It might even be my favorite comment of all time: &#8220;I am not one to throw stones.. but the name of the blog has grammer and spellying typos ALL OVER IT.. Smrt lernins?  seriously?&#8230;&#8221; </p>
<p>I hate when I have those &#8220;grammer&#8221; and &#8220;spellying&#8221; typos, don&#8217;t you? *snort* Please, please tell me these mistakes were made intentionally! </p>
