A friend of mine wondered in passing the other day if the Kanye West interruption of Taylor Swift at the MTV Video Music awards would have been as big of a deal if Kanye didn’t happen to be a black man disrespecting a white woman. This video arguably asks the same question.

A fair question. Two quick answers:
1. Those of us lucky enough to live in the most progressive parts of the world tend to focus on how good we have it, and yet we still haven’t achieved true gender equality.
2. I’m over trying to pitch women’s magazines. If the story isn’t about slimmer thighs for summer, they’re just not interested.
This stuff is important, I’ll try not to make it too dry.
