Sometimes it had provactive guests on, but that's not the same at all. With no offence to you Nick, but the people that I have met in person who witter on about "men being demeaned" (etc) tend to have somewhat old-fashioned attitudes and/or don't see where men are advantaged. You of course may be different - that's just the people I've met. Arthur [1] Working as a research fellow in maths. Nice job. Now I have to get up in the mornings.

But back to animal portage, I note that the upcoming issue of VeloVision (due in a couple of days) has a cover picture and feature article on transporting dogs by bike. I imagine some of it may be applicable to cats to a degree. Pretty hard to get a cat to tow the bike along though. -- Dave... |

Sometimes it had provactive guests on, but that's not the same at all. I agree some of the guests are provocative, but also the tone of the presenting is also pushing an agenda, which while not quite anti-male is certainly pushing a larger agenda than just that of equality of opportunity for women. e.g. Its coverage of a recent high-profile court case* was distinctly in the tone of "Why are these people oppressing women's rights?" instead of finding any merit in it. A *I won't mention the subject, as it'd only start another flame war. It's within the last 10 days, and not the Huntley trial. |

They've run spots on the joys of Hostess trolleys and an analysis of "Yo Momma" insults in a feminist context for example. Regards, -david |
