"Honey," she says "I don't like to say I'm a feminist, I prefer to be called an equalist. It's not that I'm against women struggling for their just desserts, because I'm not.

"Honey," she says as she burns a picture of Cliff Burton "Neither are we."
"Baby, just because you burn it, doesn't mean it don't exist. Look at this way, we may not agree with all parts of 'tallica right?"
"I ain't a fan of Mustaine in the band that's for sure" she says.
"Exactly. And just because Burton is dead doesn't mean he wasn't ever a part right?"
"Yeah, yeah."
"Well, that's like Feminism. It's got all this good stuff like Burton and Ride the Lightning, but sometime's it's got some stuff that you may not like so much like Load, Short hair, and Mustaine. In fact you may think those parts suck shit, but the sum of its parts is much greater, y'know? Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. You can't overlook St. Anger. It's a good album."
