Uh huh.  The opinion column by Carol Platt Liebau
(that I'm guessing appeared at _Townhall.com_)
certainly "brings up the issue" as Denise Noe said,
however the issue is brought up not to express any
concern for men but to throw a pity party for women,
just as you concluded, Jill.

(Denise) Society, you've guessed correctly. It appeared at
Townhall.com.




This was just more of the same liberal, feminist
twaddle we've been getting for 40 years.

Yep, that's Carol Platt Liebau's take on the issue.
Politically she's a social conservative, as far as I can
tell.  That puts her firmly in the traditionalist wing
of the female supremacist movement.  Picking her
out in a crowd of feminists is tough, isn't it?

(Denise) She is a social conservative. Conservatism may have a strong
matriarchal strain within it.

   a would-be predator. Many women don't
   seem to get this. It causes men to be
   even more aloof, detached, withdrawn,
   and disengaged, which just opens them up
   to more criticism in yet another no-win
   situation, another example of how the
   woman-as-helpless-child approach backfires.

(Denise) Society, do you have a thing about Martians? You've called me
"the anthropologist from Mars."
