PHD is real

Dear Akossa

I would like to point out that your ed’s note, dated January 23rd of this year, spoke the truth about women being discourteous to their fellows.

The pull her down syndrome does exist; it is not just a term made up by someone trying to give women a bad name or give an excuse for certain behaviours.
