When the Babes Beat Up the Boys

ronn submitted this story from AlterNet, which examines current media violence against men by women and wonders: "What are these women so angry about?" Michelle Goldberg attempts to point out the hypocrisy of women wanting to be sexual predators and punishing men for the same thing. This new wave of violence against men is no longer about empowered heroines protecting the world from metaphorical rapists and pillagers. This is about raw, crazy, Fatal Attraction-style vengeance. But in this era of the swinging single girl, of hook ups and friendly fucks and Sex and the City, what exactly are women getting revenge for?
