I have another theory. When we read stuff like that it makes us think .. "WTF! What the hell is the problem with this guy"? It also reinforces that inner voice that says .. "Gee, this world is f*cked up! Am glad I'm so normal".
Of course it may be another theory I have. The feminist movement has demanded that men be more like them and they be more like us. Getting in touch with your feminine side,.. or as some would say .. "Find your inner bitch" is considered a good thing. I would imagine that a proclivity for gossip, hair pulling and flaming are all part of 21'st century man's DNA.
Now where the hell did I leave my Latte?? ..
