GERMAINE GREER IS SENSITIVE

September 5, 2006 | celebrity | editor | 0 Comments

I have no idea who or what Germaine Greer is, but apparently she's a "feminist icon" in Australia and she couldn't be happier that Steve Irwin is dead.  Making her kick up her heels in delight is that Irwin was killed by an animal, calling it the animal worlds revenge.  Greer said:

"There was no habitat, no matter how fragile or finely balanced, that Irwin hesitated to barge into.  Every creature he brandished at the camera was in distress.  The animal world has finally taken its revenge, but probably not before a whole generation of kids in shorts seven sizes too small has learned to shout in the ears of animals with hearing 10 times more acute than theirs, determined to become millionaire animal-loving zoo owners in their turn."

And:

"There was not an animal he was not prepared to manhandle. Every creature he brandished at the camera was in distress.  Every snake badgered by Irwin was at a huge disadvantage, with only a single possible reaction to its terrifying situation, which was to strike.  The animal world has finally taken its revenge on Irwin."

You had to know some filthy god damn hippie was gonna say this at some point, but it would have been delightful if they could have at least waited a week or so.  But I guess this way the 8 and 2 year old orphans can have "it was all daddys fault" ringing in thier ears at the funeral.  Nice.  I'm gonna go down to Greenpeace and just start punching people.
