I started hulking out pretty early in that "women are killing sci-fi!" bullshit, so I diverted my attention to the About page and found that apparently they consider sea turtles an exotic cause! Yeah, I wasn't really surprised when I returned to the main article and discovered the author wailing and moaning about Torchwood and BSG.

AHAHAHAHAHAAH WHAT. And sea turtles have to do with their Epic Theories on Menfolk and Teh Wimminz... how, exactly? xD

Some of us have finally started to find our voice, and a number of blogs dedicated to men’s issues have appeared, seemingly out of nowhere, creating something of a movement. But “movement” might be the wrong term, because in our contrived and artificial society the meaning of that word has come to be associated with dilettante radicals with bullhorns and giant puppets making appeals on behalf of sea turtles or some other exotic cause.

Because trying to fix one of the many tiny parts that keeps our entire planet in working order is totally against everything good and true and manly.

Ah, of course! Comparing their "cause" to actual real-world causes would simply make them look... even more ridiculous, presumably! (Personally I think that's a toss-up; when you talk about "giant puppets making appeals," your street cred- so to speak- in any context automatically goes WAYYYYY down.)

Well, you know, MANLINESS >>>>>>>>>>>> everything else, obviously. Like logic, for instance. :P

I think they switched to PBS in the middle of the day expecting historical programs about the Civil War like they sometimes have in the evening and were confused when they ran into some kids' show running their Protect the Environment episode instead. Surprise!
