    Except of course, what she *actually* said. You *are* hopeless. :)

    I have no doubt that there is a dark side to the female gender/sex
    role, there is a dark side to everything. But your obsession with
    this, coupled with your refusal to even admit the dark side of other
    social structures (for instance Islam, and women's oppression under
    it) hardly seems evenhanded.

    And may the force be with you.
