Dear Sugar,
I am a 64 year old male and am living with woman who is a feminist. Nearly always when we argue she accuses me of bing sexist and sometimes it is of course true. I have in the past been very sexist but when she and I moved in together I began to work on my sexism, however it still manifests itself.

- Plans to start a women-only holiday service
- Wanted exemption to Equal Opportunity Act
- Judge refuses, say it is not necessary
A SINGLE-sex travel company for women who want to avoid boozy, bed-hopping mixed tour groups has been grounded.
A judge ruled yesterday that former tour guide Erin Maitland cannot advertise women-only holidays because it could breach the human rights of men.
Judge Marilyn Harbison refused to grant Ms Maitland an exemption to the Equal Opportunity Act, ruling that she had not proved it was reasonable or necessary, the Herald Sun reports.
"The exemption may well be convenient and practical in the establishment of her business, but it cannot be justified on human rights principles," said the vice-president of the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal.
In her evidence to VCAT Ms Maitland said she wanted to set up Travel Sisters after hearing stories from her friends who would not travel in mixed tour groups because of "drinking and bed-hopping".

Scarlett Johansson is blaming "extreme sexism" for the hoopla made over her comments that she had an e-mail relationship with Barack Obama.
"I kept thinking to myself, 'God, if this was just, like, Kal Penn or George Clooney, or any of the other [Obama] surrogates or supporters ... there wouldn't be [any] question about it," the actress, 23, tells the Associated Press.

More on how to get Letterman fired — and why Republicans need to do so
by Cynthia Yockey on June 12, 2009 (A newly conservative lesbian blog)
in HillBuzz, Sarah Palin
Sebastian Gray at HillBuzz has been giving lessons this week on how to get David Letterman fired for his rape jokes about Gov. Sarah Palin’s 14-year-old daughter, Willow.
Today he has a post explaining that Republicans do not have the same tenacity as Democrats in working the system to get what they want — in this case, persuading CBS to fire David Letterman.

Why is the media repeatedly saying, "female pilot" about the Buffalo plane crash? Why do they feel they have to add that? We don't hear male pilot, white, black, hispanic, asian, etc.
