All In a Name

From the Malaysian press:

Suspected serial rapist and killer Rabidin Satir, 42, charged in court

Malaysia has the death penalty for crimes of this sort. Good for us.

Women's Logic

The Australian feminist Sheila... sorry Irina Dunn coined the phrase "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle", a phrase that has been taken up a whole generation of feminists, empowered grrrrls and wishful (wistful?) manginas. 

Dunn herself was not immune to bad-boy induced gina tingles and was married to a convicted bank robber, whom I fervently hope ditched her for some hotter, tighter (just a fond desire for real life to occasionally exhibit some sort of artistic/aesthetic/moral symmetry).

Anyway, what about Mz. Dunn's one claim to immortality? Do women really need a man like a fish needs a bicycle? Not according to the Google search prompt which, I would like to emphasize, is based on the most popular search requests (among other things). Typing in "When will he" elicits the following options:



Google never lies but embittered feminists? Game, set, match...now go make me a sammich.
