What Women dont Want and dont Need

I was appalled to read this article in the Post a few days ago. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/02/29/AR2008022902992.html?referrer=emailarticle Here was my response.

"What a relief that there still exists a population of shrewish, self-loathing women out there peddling misogynist fabrications about the "fairer sex." I had thought for sure that in this day in age, a day in which more women head major entertainments studios then men, females are routinely cast in positions of strength on television shows such as Heroes, Bionic Woman, The Closer, Damages, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer to name only a few, and a woman running for president has routinely proven to be more "battle-ready" then her male competitor, such a species had become extinct. Well, fear not fellow females! Just as the African-Americans' intelligence was routinely and systematically challenged by so-called "science", our sex is also privy to such biased and routinely political degradations.

While Ms. Allen may be content to come and go swooning over Michelangelo, I myself am content NOT to waste my time obsessing over the inanities of Grey's Anatomy or The Oprah Winfrey Show or Botox water cooler talk—which as it happens, is a frequent topic discussed by many aging male professionals, including horror film director Eli Roth in a recent blog post on his website. Need we look farther than Entourage? Or how about the rise of the metrosexual? For every "embarrassing" female characteristic is an equally foolish masculine counterpart. Let Ms. Allen continue to harmlessly flap her dimwitted trap if only to give the more evolved female population a good laugh on Monday morning.

But then again, women don't read the newspaper."
