While I was researching the case of Arthur Bremer, the man who attempted to assassinate presidential candidate Governor George Wallace in 1972 and who has recently been released from prison, I was struck by how much Bremer appeared to be the victim of the females in his life.

2008-02-06
By

Reviewed by Denise Noe Set 120 million years ago, Robert T. Bakker’s Raptor Red is science fiction of a special sort: fiction with a completely scientific base. There are no time-traveling humans or Disneyfied “talking” critters. It is about life as it might actually have been lived in the early Cretaceous period. Raptor Red...

Living in London, England in the mid-18th Century, Elizabeth Brownrigg was an eminently respectable wife, mother, and midwife.

Is laziness a vice with which society must reckon?

2008-02-04
By

Sloth is one of the famous Seven Deadly Sins. It is a vice that comes up in a variety of political and social discussions. Generous social welfare programs are often opposed on the grounds that they may encourage laziness. Efforts to aid the homeless or the poor more generally often falter on the shoals...

Was there a conspiracy in the infamous murder mystery of Andrew and Abby Borden?

2008-02-02
By

Author’s Note: This was originally published in The Hatchet: The Journal of Lizzie Borden Studies. The Borden case continues to intrigue over a century after the fact because there is so much that seems to point unmistakably to Lizzie Borden’s guilt – and important facts that appear to make that guilt utterly impossible. Behavior...

Was Velma Barfield an evil woman masking that evil with piety?

2008-01-31
By

I have been accused of seeing things in woman=good and man=bad terms. This criticism is in some respects valid. I have seen tendencies in my writing to see the sexes in these terms. However, I have often written about evil women. One of those evil women was Velma Barfield, a serial poisoner who was...

The resonance of Carrie, Part 1: The teased teenager

2008-01-28
By

Stephen King’s first published novel, Carrie, a book that launched his career as a horror writer extraordinaire, has recently been re-issued with a new introduction by King himself.

On one segment of Maury, a young woman came on determined to prove to her ex-boyfriend that he was the father of her baby. I’m not one of these whores who comes on here and doesn’t know who her baby’s father is! she exclaimed, clearly contemptuous of many of Maury’s previous female guests. Maury...

Who has Monica Lewinsky’s endorsement?

2008-01-23
By

I haven’t heard that Monica Lewinsky has endorsed a Presidential candidate. It seems to me that it might be seen as a magnanimous gesture on her part if she would announce that she supports Hillary Clinton. People might see Lewinsky as being generous to the woman whom she helped to sexually betray. Then again,...

Is Charles Manson the subject of a myth?

2008-01-22
By

No one was ever more persuaded than I was by the image of the diabolical and charismatic Charles Manson as presented in prosecutor Vince Bugliosi’s famous book Helter Skelter. Manson appeared to an extraordinary figure. According to Bugliosi, he was a man who could lead others to thoroughly believe in a bizarre theory that...

Buying A Home and Informed Expectations in the Metro Atlanta Experience: New Homes, Old Homes, What Kind of Homes?

2008-01-21

Owning your own home is a cherished part of the American Dream. Despite the trendy slogan, there is much more to the purchase of property than location, location, and location.

On abortion, women should join with men to pick a better battle

2008-01-19
By

In a recent editorial for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Maureen Downey claimed that the overwhelmingly male Georgia state legislature “trades in caricatures of women, casting them as helpless when the state is intruding on such personal decisions as abortion.” She criticizes a proposed law that would force women to “sit through a state-scripted lecture on...

BestBank’s bad and misandrist commercial

2008-01-18

Yesterday I heard a BestBank radio commercial. A female narrator was talking about how the multitude of demands on her time leave her with no time left over to spend balancing her checkbook.

At a recent speech by Hillary Clinton, a supposed protestor held up a big sign reading Iron My Shirt. Hillary Clinton immediately denounced the sexism of the taunt.

Monica’s Lewinsky’s success does not harm women as a gender

2008-01-12
By

Author’s Note: This is the 10th anniversary of the breaking of the Monica Lewinsky scandal. I wrote the following letter in response to an opinion article entitled Lewinsky Success Sets Women Back in which the author derided Lewinsky for acting like a “subservient little girl.” We live in a pluralistic society that has room...
