Salon's Feminist Utopia

"Why are these women doing all the baking and cleaning and schlepping to husbands' office parties?"

Possibly b/c their husbands can't afford Alice from the Brady Bunch?

"I wanted to scream, 'Buy something for yourself! Let your husband get his own dinner!'"

Lovely. And you are still single?

"It's the same thing women talk about all the time, that their husband doesn't clean the house or doesn't do this or that. A man will step over the bag of garbage to get to the beer in the fridge, and a woman will pick up the bag of garbage as soon as she walks into the kitchen."

Ah. Man = Slob. How avant-garde.

I'd like to see more of John Derbyshire's columns here. We need to counter-balance the Salon shrews. I had the very same reaction when I saw that GQ issue. What a relief that somewhere on earth men can still say what they think!

P.S. Thanks to Rebecca Traister for bringing us this bit. Who knew she reads GQ and National Review, too?

Remember the shoe bomber? He was a real threat. And he was clearly mentally ill. One could argue most suicide bombers will be.

So I feel very good that there are armed undercover officers on airplanes now. This is a big improvement over relying on flight attendants and passengers for defense.

In Israel, suicide bombers are a big threat, and armed guards are a big part of the solution. They act pre-emptively. They have to. That's what these air marshals did.

Q. Is there anybody who would rather NOT have armed guards on airplanes? Would you rather just fend for yourselves again?

Stop yelling.

(wow, that was easy)

Bingo. What we really need are bankers. More bankers. Lots and lots and lots of bankers. And consultants. You just cannot have enough consultants. Can you have enough consultants? I don't think you can have enough consultants, though we should probably have someone looking into it. Or accountants.

Perhaps you can be a consulting accountant at a bank? Now there's a way to make a difference, young man! Off to Wall St. with you already . . .

P.S. And what's with this love making between meals? There's a war on! Once daily until conception. Fifteen minutes is sufficient. And don't forget there are starving people in Iraq who cannot even afford to masturbate. So try not to enjoy it too much.

She admits to group sex and serial relations. She spreads disease and degrades intimacy. The only way to keep a good man now would be lying. So she might as well keep what she's got. Dumping him and finding another man would only increment "her number" by one. And she's not getting any younger.

P.S. Cary Tennis is a whipped women's 'libber. I'm not convinced he's a man.

Deborah, in her late 50s, has never married, but "she has been in a monogamous coupled relationship with Jim for more than 10 years." Angie "has been in a relationship for twenty years with a married man." Dorothy was married at 22 for five years and again at 35, for 10. During the 13 years since her second divorce, "she had averaged about one affair a year."

In other words, one has a man who makes no committment, one is dating another woman's husband, and one can only mange short-term serial relationships. Is this the kind of behavior we want to exhort? Lacking committment, respect, or loyalty?

You know what this leads to? The rise of the Conservative Christian movement. Just the same way marrying gays illegaly in San Fran got Bush elected.

* Note: Such anectodal popular works are worthless from a scientific standpoint. In California we could find two dozen movie stars cohabitating with cheetas and extrapolate a new national movement from it. Salon ought to have higher standards to backup its femi-nazi agenda.

The simplest way to improve things is to reject the women who treat you badly.

But you can do better. Reject the laws that treat you badly.

Realize that the laws in this country shape the behavior of its citizens. You cannot marry and have children in America without ruining your wife. The reason is that the law entitles her to your house, income, and children no matter how she behaves. So, why should she be nice to you anymore, once she has achieved her goals of having a home and child?

This reality is not lost on unmarried women in the dating pool. They are often trolling for the sucker who will set them up. A guy who will put up with bad behavior initially is going to be an easy mark. So make sure it's not you.

And then take a careful look at who you vote for and where you get your politics.

it's driven by the porn industry. you can probably make your 2 grand back if you do it right.

A psychologist or psychiatrist can help resolve the problem.
