Misogyny today in the blogosphere

Isn’t this cute? Dad29 has a problem with women who speak their minds. Jay posits that, by now, this can only be considered pathological. But, you know, the good kind of pathological.

And there is this silliness from Christian Schneider:

Imagine you’re a young guy who has just started dating the girl of your dreams. You get around to the discussion of how many people she has “been with.” She says “two.” (That’s what girls always say, usually accompanied by an extensive story about how she dated some guy for years.)

Now imagine there was a Girlfriend Registration Service, where prospective girlfriends had to report their past exploits. Everything is on there - the Spring Break trip to Cancun and everything. When you go look up the new love of your life, you find out her number isn’t two - it’s 34.

Ah, the old angel/devil adolescent male fantasy. Your “girl” says she’s an angel, but really…yowza!

For some reason, Schneider thought this was an appropriate way to launch a discussion about the costs of providing health care to retirees, which, of course, his employer, the Wisconsin Policy Research Institute, opposes. Maybe elderly women just aren’t sexy enough for them to notice.
