    A reply on Talk: Colin Stokes: How movies teach manhood

    Jan 29 2013: Women make up >50% of the electorate in the US. If they want more representation, they have the votes to secure it.

    Perhaps not everyone agrees that the quality of representation is a function of one's genitalia?

    Jan 29 2013: Thank you.

    Just when I was at the point of despair thinking I can never again be astonished by the tripe I read on the Internet, you have gladdened my heart.

    Jan 28 2013: I'll suggest one first step: If Hollywood is really against sexual assault, perhaps it should not give awards to a convicted, unrepentant, and unpunished felon convicted of sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl?

    Or we could just decide that Roman Polanski just needed to see more movies growing up where there were more than two female protagonists who talked about more about their common boyfriend. Yeah; maybe that's what went wrong.
