Yah. I didn't bother. I'm so sick and tired of the women are just as aggressive, strong and manly as any man.

Who wants a woman like that? not much different between a woman like that and a man.

I finally found a sci-fi show that I had absolutely no interest in watching. usually they gradually morph into political correctness, but they always do. Now they seem to start with it.

Remember Sam Carter's "wear my genitals on the inside comment?" Turned me right off. I'm tire of the Carter is smarter than any man, carter is stronger than any man, carter is more creative than any man, carter is a better leader than any man, carter is more aggressive than any man. And every man in the universe wants her.

Don't watch much Sci-Fi channel any more. Tired of the woman kicks a mans arse paradigm.

And if they can alienate a science fiction aficionado like me of 40 years, they got a major problem.

lol. sorry about the rant. I don't get many chances to expound on this subject :)

I am right there in the escape pod with you.

Today, nearly every action flick has a “combat chick” who regularly and consistently tosses 250 lb men around like a human Travis the chimp. We are constantly informed as to how their is no real distinction between men and women in ANY arena, and the implication that there might be a differential ability for men and women in the arena of hand to hand combat is sexist and discriminatory.

I have always believed that EVERYONE should maximize their defense capability, and as a police insructor and National Guardsman, I instructed my fellow women Officers and soldiers in hand to hand combat. After 3 decades of doing this, and speaking to innumerable others in the field, I acknowledged a nearly universal truth that even well trained and fit women are often at a disadvantage against strong, even relatively untrained men. That is simply a reality, and no amount of political correctness will change that.

I say all this to note the tension between modern mores and our traditional notions of chivalry vis a vis women. Of course a savage attack like Chris Brown’s is verboten in any era (unless you are an Islamonazi) but a challenge over a lady’s honor strikes me as so quaint in an era of cultural marxism and radical feminism ascendent.
