Math is Harder for Girls

Heather Mac Donald is a very interesting individual with a very interesting biography. Her most recent piece for the City Journal is both an indictment of New York Times reporting and the feminist - both genders are the same - ethos. Her analysis of the statistics seems a lot more accurate than the Times and while TMR is always reluctant to claim bias reporting (it seems like a crutch used by individuals who disagree with an articles thrust, and an irrational act by reporters) it's either that or stupidity and I'm not sure which Tamar Lewin would prefer.

On another note TMR watched Reality Bites Back on Comedy Central and is totally on board. The show essentially punishes reality t.v. contestants for wanting to be famous which is both funny and rewarding. Definitely worth the half-hour.
