I started to write an article for GC on the whole Polanski thing, and now I'm just in a terribly foul mood.
Then I saw this on my friend's list, courtesy of

The War on Science Fiction (link deleted)
Apparently, females are getting their cooties on Science Fiction.(That old saw! have a picture of gnat playing "My Heart Bleeds for You" on the world's tiniest violin ---> * ) Now boys won't grow up to invent things anymore, because there might be gays and wimmin on the SyFy channel.
I think I sprained an eye muscle from the eye-rolling. Ow.
While the perceived 'dumbing down' of scifi TV is lamentable, that's one thing you can't blame on a whole gender. Idiots.

There's a real piece of work mouthing off in the comment thread, whining about how women always invade the boy's clubs. One lady said that the whole world is a boy's club, and he countered with a challenge to name one men-only area that women weren't clamouring to get into.
It was all I could do not to say, "Your bedroom."
(I refrained only because I do not want to engage, you know.)
