Oversimplification

November 24, 2013

Several years ago, I thought of a description of male reactions to things that men encounter in life.  It was "If they can't f--- it, fight it, or eat it, they don't know what to do with it."

I thought it was funny but not really true and much too cynical for me even to tell another person about it.

I never thought that, years later, world forces would conspire and cause that description to seem not only obsolete but quaint in its failure to encapsulate an epidemic scourge of anti-intellectualism, rape culture, and generalized brutality.
