"As Gloria Steinem informed the audience at a Florida fundraiser last March: “The cult of masculinity is the basis for every violent, fascist regime.” "

How exactly does this justify her affairs with men through the years and her SHOCKING! marriage to, yes, a MAN a couple of years ago? It's so perplexing.

"Every woman adores a fascist" - Sylvia Plath.

"The cult of masculinity" is also responsible for almost every scientific advance and every great work of art. It's the old 'masculine' impulse for knowledge and mastery over 'feminine' nature. Camille Paglia (a writer whose work I've come to disparage for other reasons; mostly her worship of a particularly empty-headed popular culture) put it quite succinctly (and I'm paraphrasing): "If women had been in power for the last few millennia, we'd still be living in grass huts."
