IF YOU BELIEVE THAT MEN AND WOMEN ARE DIFFERENT, YOU'RE A SEXIST PIG.

The Other McCain puts into words what, in a sane world, would be obvious to everyone:

The academic/political/legal forces that would compel us to pretend that men and women are identical are engaged in denial of truths that are obvious to any stand-up comedian. C'mon, people: How many thousands of stand-up routines have been built upon observing the differences between men and women? And we laugh because these observations are true.

Yes, men do tend to fetishize power tools and other grown-up "toys." Yes, women are kind of crazy about shoes. Yes, men do tend to go into a store, find exactly what they want and buy it, while women tend to linger in the mall for hours "just looking." Men and women are different, and even if you don't exactly fit the gender-role stereotype, the general differences are observable and funny as hell when Jerry Seinfeld or Jeff Foxworthy points them out.

Gender differences even hold true among homosexuals, as Andrew Sullivan once pointed out by repeating this joke:

Q. What does a lesbian bring on her second date?
A. A U-Haul trailer.
Q. What does a gay man bring on a second date?
A. What's a second date?

Which is to say, the female tendency toward domesticity -- the preference for long-term relationships -- persists even in the otherwise anti-traditional world of lesbianism, and the male tendency toward promiscuity is even more marked among gay men, who don't have women to say "no" to them.

Of course, if you've had a college indoctrination...I mean...an...uh...education, you will know that the author here actually hates women and wants to enslave and possibly rape them. You will be smart enough not to have to accept obvious reality anymore and can invent your own to sell as fact! You have the schools, Hollywood and the MSM to push it and can enjoy the awesome sense of superiority that this gives you! You rock dude. Or dudette. Or whatever the non-gender equivalent is.

Funny, but I've found that if I believe that sticking a needle into my eye will make me feel all warm and fuzzy, I still get hurt by my denial of the reality of the situation. Maybe if I had some more o' that there book learnin' n' stuff....
