Scott Adams says something misogynist; news at 11

Scott Adams thinks rape is a natural instinct of men, and that asking them not to rape is oppressive. Seriously:

If a lion and a zebra show up at the same watering hole, and the lion kills the zebra, whose fault is that? Maybe you say the lion is at fault for doing the killing. Maybe you say the zebra should have chosen a safer watering hole. But in the end, you probably conclude that both animals acted according to their natures, so no one is to blame...

The part that interests me is that society is organized in such a way that the natural instincts of men are shameful and criminal while the natural instincts of women are mostly legal and acceptable. In other words, men are born as round pegs in a society full of square holes. Whose fault is that? Do you blame the baby who didn’t ask to be born male? Or do you blame the society that brought him into the world, all round-pegged and turgid, and said, “Here’s your square hole”?

Won't someone think of the poor, erect penises? How will they exercise their God-given right to have a hole to occupy, if the person attached to the hole is allowed to say "no"?

	P.Z. Meyers is occasionally troubling to read, but I was deeply pleased by his response: Scott Adams is being a self-indulgent, self-pitying dinkwad, again (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Poor little Scotty. I get the impression that he doesn't find his sex life all that satisfying. That ending alone makes me so, so happy. Mr. Meyers, even if you are a little troubling I salute your cheerfulness to point out how much of a fucking douchebag Scotty is. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That's what's been bothering me this whole time -- I keep thinking, but isn't Adams married? And then I go find something shiny. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Due to lack of sleep and getting used to a new opiate painkiller, shiny turned into "hairy". And then I was like, "She's looking for Hugh Jackman?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That works, too. At least you thought Hugh and not, say, Robin Williams (who does not do it for me, though he is definitely epically hairy). (Reply to this)(Parent)
