Fortunately, a few voices of reason prevail. Over at Slate yesterday, the "Gentleman Scholar" tackled one of the most befuddling scourges of modern inter-gender discourse: the male/female handshake. As we all know, men are complete fucking idiots who roll around moaning like flipped-over turtles the second a woman speaks to them in an egalitarian, nonsexual context; and women are inscrutable foreigners with bird-bones who speak only in ciphers and infiltrate male spaces such as "jobs" in order to send everyone to jail for saying hi to them wrong.
