BATTLE OF THE SEXES. Wednesday's Rush Limbaugh show turned into a dish session after he quoted at length from Susan Reimer's essay complaining (for the n-th time, for n large) about young adult men acting badly. Hasn't anybody thought through the implications of "if it feels good ('for the present' usually goes unstated) do it?" Does it come as any surprise that if there are no consequences for behaving badly, people will behave badly? Dig down, and note the separating equilibrium conditioned on whether Mom and Dad are married, or not. Newmark's Door finds an article on a related topic that offers a slightly different perspective from the Popular Perspective.
