    Is the outrage just over the POWER that the female wields in this matriarchal society?

    In that case, I'm pissed too. Miley can do what she wants, but I will use her f'ing $$$$ behavior against feminist sexists who want everything: every single power that any male enjoys, PLUS the power to control access to sex, the power to control reproduction, the power to leverage sexist HR policies written into corporate reference materials, the power to abuse and humiliate men at will in the courtroom with no material evidence whatsoever...

    I will tell my (currently 3YO) son when he's in his 20's, "look, son, it's a woman's world, but here's how to make your way in it anyway..."

    I just hope in 20 years, American society will find a little balance and give men an equal shake.
