Yaknow, I *have* noticed that, now that you mention it.

I find it totally alien, but I grew up in an environment
where we argued a lot (argued, not fought) and in academia
you basically can't get through a day without someone
finding something wrong with your work. Since I'm in the
private sector I've started asking people who don't like me
to review my work, since I want to make sure that I catch as
many errors as possible before sending it out. I want it to
be good, and that means aggressive, occasionally hostile
feedback. This whole "Waah, you're so mean, waaah" stuff is
incomprehensible to me.

I think it has to do in large part with control, especially in the
case of Jack and Flick. It makes them foam at the mouth when a
woman dares to stand up to them [ ... ]

Oh, everything makes them foam at the mouth.
