I think in recent weeks this list has become more adolescent (not the same thing, we should note, as being interestingly critical of the scholarly ethos) and more of a "boys" club. Lets talk about gender. And by the way, talking about gender does not mean that one is "part of the protectorate of women"--we all, even you my dear Friend (not Coleman but Mr. Rape-fantasy) have a gender afterall. Furthermore, taking an interest in gender _inequality_ is not a matter of selling out, as was suggested. It involves listening and taking seriously another side of the story. Behind any talk of rape-fantasy hides a sickening ignorance and a timid, indeed resentful, hatred. Erik D. Lindberg Dept. of English and Comparative Lit.
