You're wasting your breath. Broadsheet writers want to have their cake and eat it too. They supposedly want to be respected as "journalists", but at the same time they want to write breezy gossip pieces and lip-flappery in the style of teen-mag "OMG-SO-serious!" pieces. That way, when female bloggers get dissed, they can whine about how they aren't taken seriously.
Childish, but there you are.
P.S. Another voice for THIS IS NEWS?? I've known about Julia Child's spy career for, oh, thirty years or so. But again, another indication of the narcissistic nature of this column. They can't be bothered to do basic research, and thus embarrass themselves on a regular basis. Places like this give feminism a bad name. Feh.
