Let's talk about crazy women. Courtney Love is a crazy woman. Amanda Bynes is a crazy woman. Yoko Ono is a crazy woman. Sybil is a crazy woman. Lorena Bobbitt is a crazy woman.
So before you call that girl crazy, ask yourself a few questions. Is she grinding on an inflatable penis or knifing one off? Is she throwing your bong out the window or shaving off all her hair while holding a doll?
Texting too much. Texting too little. Wanting to see a movie. Not wanting to go to a strip club. Wanting to go to a strip club. Apparently, all these behaviors can make a perfectly sane woman "crazy."
Apparently just breathing, just taking in oxygen and expelling it is enough to make you a ripe contestant for the looney bin.
Men call women crazy for two reasons. The first is to shut them up. The second is because it's easier to do that than to admit they did something wrong.
Women bear the brunt of this emotional trauma men so casually commit, starting to believe that they, themselves, might actually be crazy.
But how? What are we doing that's so insane? Do you really think crazy is the right adjective to describe someone who is stating an opinion, reacting to a statement or trying to figure out a plan?
Is she really that crazy because she confronts you for cheating on her because you are cheating on her?
If you ask any of us, it's the men who are the crazy ones. They're the ones running around making all these labels and throwing the C-word around like it's no big deal. How would they like it if we started describing everything they did as CRAZY.
How would they like it if we just decided to label everything about them we didn't like as neurotic, irrational and completely absurd behavior. Well, they'd probably just call us crazy.
(These are actual testimonials of times women were called crazy for no reason.)

2. I'm not a stalker, I'm just curious about your past.
3. I don't text you a lot, you just never answered my one text.
4. I'm not obsessed, I just thought I'd call when you said you were supposed to pick me up and never showed up.
5. I'm not a sex maniac, I just want to have sex.
6. I'm not a prude, I just don't want to have sex in this coat closet in my great aunt's hallway.
