hey, remember this
insane idiot? she's the weirdo professor from singapore that made the brilliant comparison between "anal sex" and "shoving a straw up your nose to drink" (i still don't get it).

i guess all the hoopla surrounding her idiotic opinions got to her, she won't be coming to new york as a guest faculty member at NYU afterall:
click here for storyso for those of you who were really looking forward to learning how to be an asshole with dumb opinions, you're shit out of luck - her class was canceled. she claims it has to do with the hostile reactions she received but i'd venture to say it has more to do with the fact that nearly no one enrolled in her class. because openminded educated people tend not to like bigots, i guess.
i'm not sure what NYU was thinking, but extending an invitation to someone who has publicly claimed that
"homosexuality is a mental
disorder" and that the "
ultimate goal of gay rights advocates is to be
able to sleep with 13 year-olds" was just not well thought out. i'm personally not gay, so i wouldn't know for
SURE, but i'm pretty sure that most homosexuals are not on some unified mission to have sex with 13 year olds (except for the 13 and 14 year old gays - they, of course,
are trying to sleep with 13 year olds, which makes sense). basically what i'm saying is, NYU, you should have known better in the first place.
... but she withdrew and her class has been canceled and she won't get to enjoy autumn in new york and everything works out cheery and the good guys win. hooray.
thank you, professor Li-Ann Thio for not bringing your brand of hate and ignorance to my city. you still suck but at least you won't be spreading your idiotic opinions in my backyard.
