"Some, of course, will argue that I take these things too seriously;
it’s just a dumb campus sex comedy, for crying out loud. But I can’t
help but feel that this movie actually has something to tell us about
our cultural attitudes surrounding violence, misogyny, and notions of
masculinity."

Excellent article.  It's time to move away from the casual misogyny of
the past and aim to do better in future.
