P. Billingsley? Is that Peter Billingsley? Ralphie Parker?

It's always bothered me that we don't spell it "monkies."

Are you SURE this wasn't down in Pioneer Square last Saturday night?

Maybe they should try strap-ons.

I very much like the phrase "ovaries shrieking fire".

DIRTY MONKEYS. God, I would feel so resentful and yet foolish for feeling resentful towards monkeys.

This has to be oddest (most odd?) story I have read in a long time.

the monkeys are misogynists?

then it must be NATURAL.

note to african women - kill one with your bare hands in front of the others, rip it asunder & eat it raw, and i bet they'll get the message.

@8 I agree with the extreme violence part. I think maybe these women are just a little timid, though. My mom scares the hell out people a lot more than my dad, despite being five inches shorter, and a whole lot rounder.

What is the sex of the monkeys? I suppose either way, it's disturbing.

Weird that the farmers wouldn't have shotguns. I couldn't shoot an orangutan or a chimpanzee, but I'd shoot a monkey no problem.

Somehow, this is all Michael Vick's fault.

So why don't their menfolk help them? Monkeys can't help their behavior; the human males could learn to cooperate, or starve.

the author of this slog post has painted a very comical stereotype of feminist activism, and it's totally appreciated.

The best part? The farmers aren't allowed to kill or injure the monkeys, because they're a "protected species." Well, starving Kenyan farmers, just do what other struggling peasants straining under asinine and uncaring governments do: ignore them, and don't get caught

Kill the monkeys, eat them, and hide the evidence. Then, when the government asks what happened to them, point to the failing crops and claim they went away after they took all your food.

Those women are weenies, then. I'm 5'2" and my husband is 6'2", and I can name any number of people who are much more afraid of me. I'm a lot meaner than he is. And I agree with maxsolomon - the women should make a gory, bloody example of one of the monkeys in front of the others. It's what I do with garden slugs - I like to skewer them on sticks and leave them there as examples for the others. Well, actually the others come and eat the corpse, but at least then they're not eating my plants.
