First Impressions of Lysistrata

r-rite, so to start this off i'm going to inform u of the sad fact that debaters (now on refered to as db8rs) are relitively dirty minded people. we all know that i'm a db8r and so i need say no more. now, i'm thinking that Lysistrata is definately a book that my team (and its extended family at a couple other skools) should read together. it's incredibly entertaining because of the puns that are included and the slightly dirty nature of those puns. i wasn't surprized at first, but slowly i got to the point that all i could think was "i don't believe he wrote that!!!" the inability of the womyn in the story to wrap their minds around the idea that they wouldn't b having sex for a while kind of floored me. stereotypically it's the guy that u c having issues cuz he's not "gettin ne" but hearin the womyn complain about not screwing their husband? that's pretty rare. i did think the opening was interesting because the womyn seem not to really pay attention to to much that Lysistrata says. first they don't show up 4 the meeting and then they oppose most of what she says. something about that seems odd 2 me. normally, the "leader" is followed from the beginning and this time they're all being nay sayers cept the chick from the "podunk town up north" (thanks Long, and yeah, that is how i'm gonna refer to Sparta since Lampito talks like an uneducated chick from a farm). idk, maybe it's just me, but aren't leaders spose 2 b so carismatic that you can't help but get behind them? (and i'm gonna yell at the 1st person who says Obama there cuz the election is gonna b over by time ne 1 reads this entry.) o well, i guess that's it for now cuz i can't really think of ne thin else 2 say at this point in the book cuz nothin's really happened yet.
