I broke down and joined in the discussion over at Pat's, and I'm sure I'll regret it.

Sadder and more offensive than the original review is the number of responders who are instinctively brushing this argument off as a bunch of hard-line (female) feminists overreacting to a non-issue. Never mind that half of those objecting to Pat's wording are male, and that one of the first to complain in his comments (Andrew Wheeler) was actually objecting as a member of the publishing industry and not as a matter of gender mis-stereotyping at all.
