#1 Good to know that there are people laying awake at night worrying about titanic issues like this so I don't have to...

#2 Interesting the most cultured person in the show was a woman. The most kick-ass person in the show was also a woman.

#3 Gromky,

I just read that load of tripe. Other than the fact that it confirmed my opinion that most feminists are complete idiots, it was a complete waste of time. I appreciate the effort but IMHO, the 'Burg would be better off without this crap; it has a net negative effect on one's intelligence.

I'm damned glad I'm never likely to meet that article's author in person.

#4 My son's taking an enrichment course at MIT on Firefly - I'll have to get his take on this swill. He's a level-headed conservative/libertarian for the record.

#5 Loved Firefly. My all time favourite TV show.

I think she hates the show, because the heroes are clearly not liberals.

#6 Yes the show is clearly Libertarian.

#7 The villains in Serenity are... well, highly authoritarian Democrats. Think about it: the bad guys are constantly striving to create a centralized utopia with no sharp edges and no frontiers.

#8 Serenity was awesome - got the box set and Serenity DVD....hope I din't upset the feminist with the term "box-set", she seems to hypergynoventilate at every other reference to a woman

IOW, a DIPSHIT
