This blog post by Scott Adams (Dilbert cartoonist) has gotten a LOT of flack recently. While I think he made a number of incredibly ridiculous statements, I also don't know that I have ANY idea what point he is really trying to make? Initially, I believed (along with I think the general public) that he was saying that men are ultimately beings that have uncontrollable amounts of sexual desire and they can't possibly be happy unless allowed to fufill these desires without limitation? Adams seems to be making the point that women tamper any chance of men being truly happy as it's expected that men are monogomous while in a relationship. However, Adams also mentions that Hugh Hefner wasn't fufilled when he was single OR married. He also seems to be making the assumption that women are in no way sexual beings or that their needs are drastically lower than men.
I don't know. His argument doesn't make much sense to me. I don't know whether to be offended or just think he's an idiot. I'm leaning toward idiot.
Anyone else have any thoughts?
