Here's an interesting look at the smooth-talking flawed logic of an anti-feminist pundit having a lunch interview with a Salon.com writer. My fave quote:
Interviewer: Isn't that [that more women stay home with kids than men is due to our biological preference for it] social conditioning?
Anti-feminist Pundit: I did it, and I don't feel socially conditioned.

very interesting! here's my favorite exchange:
O'Beirne: I've also been told I wouldn't have a law degree if it weren't for Betty Friedan. I don't get the connection, personally. I don't feel beholden to feminists for anything.
Interviewer: I was just getting to that. You don't feel beholden to them for anything?
O'Beirne: No, I don't.
Interviewer: If the feminist movement had not taken place --
O'Beirne: I would be a lawyer.
Interviewer: And you would be making the same amount of money you do now?
O'Beirne: Uh, yeah! You don't think they can take credit for that! There was a natural revolution underway! My timing was good.
