Everybody should read Pandagon. Recently Amanda Marcotte has discussed the desperate effort to project sexual dimorphism onto food, the "religious oppression" of people who think the Constitution mandates religious tests for public office instead of forbidding them, and Ross Douchebag's theory* that the real oppressor class is the graduates of good schools.

*shared with Pat Buchanan and W*ll Sh*tt*ly, though she didn't say that.

The thing is, I can totally believe the sexual dimorphism of food thing of Americans. I noticed when I lived in Pennsylvania that men ate beef, with fried or fatty sides, and women ate chicken with salady sides. And you could break the brain of the server by asking for the Thai Chicken Salad with beef instead of chicken. Because here in Australia, that dish is always on the menu as a beef salad, not a chicken salad.

There is a lot of it out there, especially in the commercials, where men are laughed at for eating "girly food."
