If I did nothing else today...
I got gas at 2.97 before the prices soared, and I washed my car and got some recent chips and scratches painted with my factory-direct spice red patch kit.
Oh, and I also got myself banned from a radical feminist's journal because I rudely stuck my foot in my mouth posting before I realized she was trying to create a space where she didn't have to put up with anyone of my ilk (sex-positive folk) while she chatted with like-minded people about the notion of a society where porn is obsolete. (I'm not being sarcastic. It was rude.) Anyway, a couple people there tried to actually engage me in conversation with something other than ad-hominem attacks, but by then I was banned, so this post is just to let people know why I'm not posting anymore, in case they drift over to see if I'm some kind of stuck-up weeny, or what.
ETA: I didn't identify the journal because I didn't mean to incite friends to stride over there and do the same thing I did. It has since been correctly guessed at in comments. But I still don't encourage such activity, even though it *is* frustrating to still be receiving comments there I can't respond to because I'm banned.

Near as I can tell, a Strawfeminist is an argument (or person arguing) that creates a straw man (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man) feminist caricature - of all feminists or one feminist, or a specific subgroup of feminists and what they believe - and then argues against that caricature instead of against an actual stance that someone real is proposing.
Logically when used as a noun referring to a person, "Strawfeminist" ought to refer to the hypothetical feminist caricature being used for rhetorical gains, but so far as I saw the usage was to accuse someone of being a strawfeminist, in other words a person who uses strawfeminist arguments.
