The "Throw Like a Girl" Myth | MythBusters

ChaosEngine says...

I agree with pretty much everything else you've said. The problem is that any kind of mens "liberation" movement has been hijacked by the idiotic "mens rights" groups. It's not that there isn't some inequality against men that needs to be addressed (specifically around things like child custody), but more often these groups have confused not getting their way 100% of the time with being oppressed.

Regarding assault (sexual or otherwise), I think the overwhelming point there is that we should view from a gender blind perspective. It's feels ridiculous to even have to say this, but assault is bad, mmm'kay? The gender of those involved is irrelevant.

But there are some fairly deeply ingrained societal attitudes that will have to change. Picture the following scenarios:

Bob says something misogynistic to Alice. She slaps him.

Dave the evil kidnapper is finally caught and sent to jail. Someone makes a remark about not dropping the soap.

Both of those are stock standard fictional comedy tropes. The first is that when a man gets hit by a woman, he deserves it. The second is that male prison rape is implicitly funny, because the guy in prison deserves it. Can you imagine the outcry if a writer reversed those roles?

Men have needed their own "liberation" movement, too -- to be free from the need to hide their "weakness."

Star Trek Into Darkness - International Trailer

Bruti79 says...

I still think he's Khan. For me, it came from the line "I'm better than you." At what? "At everything." Reminds me of Monteblanc's line of "My is a greater intelligence."

Isn't Alice also playing the doctor who creates the genesis project?

Psychics Humiliated On National TV

I've been a fan of Randi since he was the executioner in the Alice Cooper shows in the early 70s. But I couldn't watch a minute of this crap. The host is a perfect blend of every TV/Internet/video/pop culture cliche. He makes Kathy Griffin seem tolerable.
