We all think it

I like this clip.


Quick! I need to lower my cholesterol!

Research on Sex & Gender


I like my anthropology class. It makes me laugh when I read old-timey research on sex & gender. I imagine heavy set men with moustaches and pipes sitting around drinking scotch while concluding that, genetically, women have smaller brains (and are therfore less smart) then men because, as a species, we require women to stay home and nurture children rather than pursue intellectual endeavors.

I love old-timey sexism.

But you're unlikely to lose friends either.

Debate²

I spent the brunt of yesterday evening switching between the American Vice-Presidential debate and the Canadian Leader's Debate (secretly I also switched over to Star Trek: Nemesis occasionally.)

The point:

I like Elizabeth May, Jack Layton, Stephane Dion, and Gille Duceppe. I would prefer to vote for Layton but, as my riding has zero chance of going NDP, I'll be voting Liberal.

Sarah Palin drives me crazy.

The Highlights:

Jack Layton asking Stephen Harper "Where's your agenda? Under your sweater?"

Sarah Palin droning on about how terrorists hate all things american, such as tolerance and women's rights. (But when she says she's anti-gay-marriage and against a woman's right to choose that doesn't count.)

The Conclusion:

In Canada, nobody will vote for the party they want to win until we implement proportional representation.

Sarah Palin is a douche.
