In this thread, yes. I've seen the reverse happen many times as well though. Journalistic integrity anyone...
'Ill mannered oafs'.
Classic Gielgud!
'except for the gratuitous feminist bash'
It's 'de rigueur'. It's also apposite! As in MTR would never concede the points I made about the terms used for men or the nice guy/bad boy stuff. Neither would pynchme. Or if they did, they'd say it's somehow men's fault. And it'd be no indication of misandry. 'It's... it's just... it's just different!'. 'I don't know why'.
With all these feminist deconstruction of culture articles, everything is seen as evidence of the oppressing of women and the misogynist nature of men. When you point out to them men have similar constraints and that women make up half of 'societal expectations', they normally give you a look like Julie Bishop on Q&A.

BTW: I love it how no spell checker ever knows the word misandry. Perhaps it doesn't exist in gender studies courses either...
