    2 Live at Fives in a row? Any volunteers to stop by McCain’s watering hole and let him know it’s time to get back to work?

    He’s delving into Feminist Theory. Best to let him be.

    More likely he’ll join an order dedicated to various methods of exploring the Collective Unconscious through Assyro-Babylonian mysticism and responsible financial planning.

    You may be interested in reading some excerpts at AVfM from the upcoming “Sexual Impolitics” by Neil Lyndon. The book will include the entirety of “No More Sex War: The Failures of Feminism” (1992), which critiqued feminism from a progressive point of view, much like E. Belfort Bax’s “The Fraud of Feminism” (1913).
