Showing Original Post only (View all)Camille Paglia: A Feminist Defense of Masculine Virtues [View all]
http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303997604579240022857012920'What you're seeing is how a civilization commits suicide," says Camille Paglia. This self-described "notorious Amazon feminist" isn't telling anyone to Lean In or asking Why Women Still Can't Have It All. No, her indictment may be as surprising as it is wide-ranging: The military is out of fashion, Americans undervalue manual labor, schools neuter male students, opinion makers deny the biological differences between men and women, and sexiness is dead. And that's just 20 minutes of our three-hour conversation."

Camille Paglia has either made a profession of trolling or is painfully stupid.
