Normally I’m not one to draw more attention to the Ann
Coulters of the world—people who get famous by writing books making the most
inane, controversial arguments they can think of. But this Jezebel rant on one such
book is so much fun, I’d thought I’d share.
I believe Kathleen Parker's intelligence level is pretty clear from the book cover pictured. The provocative subtitle, mysteriously written in all lower case letters, is, "why men matter; why women should care." Unfortunately, this is not a witty spoof of the most ridiculous book topic ever. Parker actually believes that America’s problems are due to the fact that men are oppressed. And by oppressed,
she means not able to learn male-centric history in school, to be free of contact with the hate-filled female sex until they’re
30-years-old, and even sometimes forced to do housework.
Parker credits her two sons with teaching her about how
sexist the United States—unlike
Thailand,
which is clearly the epitome of gender paradise. What lucky boys her sons are.
