Why won't we stop talking about that Washington Post piece on how women are dumb? Because the aftermath keeps getting more twisted.
  • notice how all the women who protest that they DO like men demonstrate their liking

    by pointing out the fact that all the men THEY know DO share all or most of the same interests and approaches as women. Really, do you see how obvious you are? Actually you probably do and know that it doesn't matter because the issue is not the quality of the idea but whether or not there is enough power behind it to bludgeon everyone into accepting it even, maybe in fact especially, when it is obviously stupid. Clearly the idea that "men are ok, WHEN they are like women in every way that matters" is one of those obviously stupid but obviously powerful ideas.
