So, apparently Forbes is running an article right now telling men not to marry career women because it will only end in unappiness for everyone involved. *punches Forbes in the neck* You can take your "scientifically gathered" statistics and shove it up your rear. It probably didn't even occur to you that marital problems might have less to do with the woman having a career and more to do with, I don't know, lack of communication and general social ineptitude on both sides of the equation. The traditional marriage dynamic has changed and is changing and by ascribing the "problem" solely to the female side of the marriage bed is both infantile and misogynistic and if you, the male editors and writers of Forbes, are acrimoniously divorced then you probably deserve it.

Assholes.

In other news, the currently running season of Stargate: SG-1 will be its last. I've never been a huge fan of the show but my sympathies go out to those who are and I also feel for Ben Browder and Claudia Black who are having their job security pulled out from under them, once again. Though there are a lot of other shows filming in Vancouver right now and I, for one, think either one of them, or both of them, would make a kickass cylon.

Finally, the wunderkind (and I use that word sarcastically) behind Survivor have announced that the teams on the next season of the show will be divided by race. *facepalm* That is the stupidest idea ever. The mind, she boggles.

It really is quite amazing what people can come up with. The guy who wrote that article for Forbes has a wikipedia page; apparently he once also wrote that wives and prostitutes are like champagne and beer: different prices, etc, essentially the same thing. What a creep.

I always knew there was something about career women.
