Here's a question: Lindy West or Jerry Lewis? Who benefits society more?

It may be many things - few of them good - but it is not cliched.

Franco is not a gifted writer. Criticizing him via a site that delivers a weekly platform to Doug Barry (to choose the easiest possible target) does seem somewhat... non-optimal?

I think you're asking for a lot of extra utility from a term with a fairly specific origins in therapeutic/medical relationships.

Are there (possibly large-ish) subcultures of entitlement among young women? Are there subcultures among young men utterly devoid of any entitlement at all?

We are agreed that the NFL is a total mess of HGH/gear/juice abuse — but their testing policy is a sham. And high-school 'roid abuse is a terrible thing cause no hs kid has topped out on the gains from standard programming anyway.

+1.

... 'cause that would be unwittingly hilarious. You may be onto something.

You're on your own with that one, champ.

Supplements are terrible for your organs? There are no drug-tested bodybuilding competitions featuring tons of dudes w/identical ab development (and a lot more overall mass)? There are no world-class athletes using heavy basic lifts identical to bodybuilders?

Using hyperbole isn't a strategy for clarity around here... as shown by the priceless "ohhh thank you for saying what I couldn't articulate" response.

Probably the best-recollected quote of the era is Evangelista's "We don't get out of bed for less than $10,000 a day"

I nominate you as Lindy West's official fitness/workout expert for all future Jez articles on the futility of exercise.

Women buy a significant percentage of male underwear; men buy a trivially small percentage of women's underwear.

I appreciate the urge to hurl invective as much as the next person, but "prepubescent" and "prematurely ejaculating" are mutually exclusive states.

Don't leave us hanging like that - how so?

Both of them seem to be better off than before — in other words, a fairly ideal outcome (at least in a theoretical sense).

The appropriate penalty for voyeurism is violent medieval torture?

What's our impression of a school that allows sleeveless shirts (or tank tops) for girls but not boys? Or imposes a stricter inseam minimum on shorts for boys than girls?

A misunderstanding, I think. I'm not aware of any restrictions on women playing pro ball at any level — there was plenty of publicity for the college soccer player who tried out for a pre-combine for NFL this year.
