First RaceFail... Now... Sexism Fail?
Here, because in no way is sexism ever funny.

Anyway, yesterday Author Jim C. Hines linked to a blog post by a woman named Tempest -- I'm unfamiliar with her at all.

In her blog post, she writes a supposed conversation between herself, Warren Lapine -- who owns Realms of Fantasy magazine -- and Doug Cohen -- who is, I think, the art director for RoF. The conversation was about when they would be putting covers that appealed more to a different demographic. (Meaning: Too many boobs, not enough man-butt.)

Now, the conversation doesn't paint Doug Cohen in the best of lights, and most people are willing to take it with a grain of salt.

And then, Doug Cohen responds.

The gist of his post is basically "It's not my fault."

Apparently, asking that RoF, which just changed owners/management and has a chance to go in a new direction, means that everyone is calling him sexist.

It might not blow up the way RaceFail did, but it seems the SciFi/Fantasy genre is wanking again.

Full disclosure: I posted on Jim Hines' second post here and then scuttled over here to post.
