    I presume you have seen the magnificent feminist panel debate moderated by Norman Mailer? Mailer, one of most chauvinistic journalists of the time against a full auditorium of frothing feminists, including Germaine Greer, it is a spectacle to behold. Towards the end of the debate, a single male audience member requests the mic and asks Germaine,

    “Suppose I as a man would want to oblige and give women precisely what it is that they are asking for, how would I go about that?”

    to which she replies

    “Whatever it is, you ain’t got it.”

    Which sums up feminist rhetoric perfectly, in my opinion.
