Senate Poll Wars
Less than seven weeks before Election Day 2014, the epic struggle to control the media narrative continues: Democrats are now (very slightly) favored to hold the Senate majority on Nov. 4, according to Election Lab, The Post’s statistical model of the 2014 midterm elections. Election Lab puts Democrats’ chances of retaining their majority at 51 […]
‘Erection Equals Consent’?
This is a phrase I never expected to encounter and, when I saw the headline, I misunderstood what the writer meant by it: The flesh is weak: On the Erection Equals Consent rape myth What I expected, based on that headline, was an argument by a feminist “deconstructing” the common claim that men are unable to […]
Kirsten Gillibrand’s Phony ‘Courage’
Kirsten Gillibrand is a Democrat and a liar, but I repeat myself. In her new book, she claims that male Senate colleagues sexually harassed her, but refused to name names, which means either: A.

My headline is better. Just sayin’ . . . Also, the BuzzFeed headline is asking the wrong question. It […]

Feminism: The Final Solution?
Sally Miller Gearhart is a feminist and a lesbian (but I repeat myself) who as a professor at San Francisco State University in the 1970s helped develop one of the first Women’s Studies programs in the nation.
