For the record, it would appear that Margaret Wente is practically one of us. Oh, maybe not quite as right-wing as me, but hardly a hyperventilating feminist.

Here’s a column that she wrote last year, and it appears from Google that she has taken a good bit of hell over this article...

“Can she consent to sex after drinking?”

“...The manufacture of “rape culture” is a triumph of ideology over substance. It has inflated a serious but uncommon threat into a crime wave. It infantilizes women, strips them of their agency and treats them like Victorian damsels in distress. As for those armies of would-be rapists lurking in every shadow – they’re your sons, your grandsons, your nephews and your brothers. I used to think the war on men was an exaggeration. I don’t think so any more.”

I would suggest you read her column about Obamacare.
