I agree with Schmancy about the ambient male hating rhetoric. It's a bummer to hear "male tear" jokes even as a woman. Also, during anti-man rants, there's some kind of explanation why the speaker is on the verge of divorce--Next stop feminist commune--to which I say, are you fucking kidding me? An all woman commune is my idea of perfect hell.
It is, and it reminds me of what Adam Smith wrote back in the 1700s, roughly "everyone wants to be loved and to be lovely", which I learned thanks to Russ Roberts' "Econtalk" podcast and his book a few years ago about Adam Smith.

I am always mystified when anyone says, a world run by women would be peaceful always. I'm like, have you met women?
Precisely.
Nancy, the last paragraph is powerful and beautiful.
