A couple of points here.  There is such a thing as man-hating, just as there is such a thing as white-hating.  When someone keeps his foot on your neck for a long enough time, it's not unreasonable to hate them.  Joanna Russ wrote an article about this decades ago, for a book that's probably out of print… but OMG it's…

BFD.  A year or two ago publishers were putting out trade paperbacks of the Brontes, Austen, and other female writers with covers inspired by Twilight. Even screwing with the texts is fine if it's done entertainingly.  Ever heard of Slash Fan Fiction?  Or Jane Austen's Fight Club?  Or porn inspired by Ben and Jerry's…
