Interesting article on the bad research that reporters use to support their women's trends articles. Surprise surprise, it appears that Maureen Dowd used questionable research in her book.

Is Dowd saying her desirability dropped, because she has a high IQ? Is this a "woe is me" type of rant from her?

Dowd's IQ is inversely proportional to her (age*weight*girth)^2

That's what it sounded like to me. Especially since, after she was confronted with her bad research, she essentially recanted the statement saying that it wasn't intended to be taken seriously.

This has nothing to do with the article, but wasn't it WKRP that had the episode with the Thanksgiving turkey drop?

Thank you very much.
Please note that this gesture of kindness does not remove your obligation to pay off your bets.
To: Chiapet
I believe you're right.
Wasn't there a line something along the lines of "but I thought Turkeys could fly..."?

Dowd writes in her book that success disadvantages women seeking to marry and have a family.

Dumpy Dowd is just making excuses for her failure in the love and marriage department. Trying to make herself feel better.
