Girls' Lacrosse the Line, Strippers & the Pope

	posted by Matt on 01:23 PM May 21st, 2006
	Roy writes "Members of the women's lacrosse team at Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., are seen in sexually suggestive poses with a male stripper in just a thong and socks on the website badjocks.com." In this naïve essay, the authoress promotes the chauvinistic notion that girls behaving badly should still be revered and respected, and quotes the Pope in support of her argument. Funny stuff!" Ed. note: The essay author you will note quickly brings up the Duke case but rushes to draw distinctions based largely on the fact that the LAX players are on the other end of (thus-far unsubstantiated or corroborated) rape allegations.

AGAIN: Men and Women Are the Same (Score:1) by Boy Genteel on 04:44 PM May 21st, 2006 EST (#1) KJL, with whom I've agreed before, says it's "disturbing" that some don't find women behaving wildly different from men behaving the same way, and goes on to say that it's the duty of women to "reform" men into gentlemen. Again: men and women should be treated equally and in the same way. I'm tired of hearing that it's so shocking when it's a WOMAN who's a suicide bomber, or hiring a stripper, or acting like a lout at work. What an insult to men: that we EXPECT YOU to act this way, but women are just so much gentler and more refined. Give me a break. Men are from EARTH. Women are from EARTH. Deal with it.

It's a peculiarly new notion. The Greeks (the males that is), who are now regarded as the original misogynists, spent very little time with women beyond what was required to perpetuate the race (since they regarded them as inferior). Perhaps our image of them as gentlemen philosophers is a bit idealized, but they certainly weren't barbarians/gangstas. I know George Gilder proposed the same theory (that it's women who civilize men) in a book on marriage he wrote some years back. Amneus (in "The Garbage Generation") fairly well shreds the idea and instead fairly convincingly presents the theory that it's men who civilize women. Feminists call that "oppressing women". For myself, I'm a perfect gentleman (well, almost) and have never received any of the alleged female training. Oh, and I'll put in a word for us Martians... * MB -------------------------------------------------- ---------- /* Not All Men Are Fools -- Some Are Martian Bachelors
