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.
