It's always amusing to me that on many occasions when feminists get too worked up over something, they either degenerate into bawling, quivery nervous wrecks or transmogrify into shrieking harpies - which just happen to be the stereotypes they are so adamant about eradicating. 
How sad that you would believe that any woman who found the article pathetic must fall into one of your stereotypes of either a "bawling, quivery nervous wreck" or a "shrieking harpy".
Shhhh! Shhhh!!! Read carefully sweetness.
You know I can't stay mad when you talk all sweet like that...

I did not use the words "any woman". I was not making a universal accusation. I didn't even drop any names. Go through and read some of the articles written in reaction to this. Those are what I'm talking about. I have no problem with women - trust me, the aspect of my life that gets me into the most trouble is that I like women as much as I do. I'm just bemused by the level of outrage that can be stirred up by one guy's article.
I think stirring that level of outrage was the point of the article - Forbes.com needed more web traffic and this article ensured that they got it.

The ensuing bitchfest (npi) all over the Web was even more entertaining than the original article, and the various responses I've read outside of these boards have - besides being supremely entertaining - spoken volumes about people on all sides of "women's issues" today.
Clearly.
It's amazing how easily everyone picks a "side" on stuff. That's all I'm trying to say.
I still love you...
You sweet talker, you... 

 Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi
