Ruminating on all the discussions on a Greer theme on the interweb of late, my wise, dear, ridiculously gorgeous Chris, one of the few men who you could really call a feminist, said to me yesterday (of the expectations some women have of men and their confusion of this with true equality):

"Why would you want to be treated like a princess? They die in car accidents."

I have discussed this at length with friends of mine. We want to be treated like equal, intelligent human beings. Not princesses.
