Re: nightly news: I just skip it. In fact I skip the entire toob altogether. It's nothing but the same old boring stuff. A killing here, a rape there, a mass murder over yonder. When will they start playing some good stuff for a change? (grin)

>-you said m/f were equally "evil"...I simply showed you that your idea is consistent with pop culture.<

It is also consistent with reality, despite that it seems increasingly acceptable in pop culture to assume men are more evil than women. Again, our methods of spreading evil perhaps generally vary according to sex. Nevertheless I think them equal. Whether passive or aggressive, both methods cause extraordinary pain, suffering and death, especially when they work in cooperation as they usually do.

I think the same trait that causes men to bludgeon one another ultimately helps the human race eat and live. Were we to live in your world, a world with only women, or with women in complete authority, then nothing would ever get done and the entire human race would rapidly degenerate into something akin to a silly, undisciplined child. Were men completely in charge or left only to themselves, then very much would get done and almost all of it would be animalistic. Men and women are equally lovely and disgusting, coey. The world needs both to enable it to feign humanity even as unconvincingly as it does.

>[Art imitates life...]<

Well of course you must know by now that ultimately I think life is art. So then art is life, the genuine article - no imitations.
