http: backlash backlash / Nature / Womanspace / Rybicki
It happens to all of us now and again. That giddy sense that the world has shifted. It happened to Ed Rybicki just recently when his gentle story "Womanspace" appeared in Nature. A short sci-fi piece on parallel worlds that, because it involved gender issues and shopping, caught fire on entry into the blogosphere. Now, Ed enjoys parallel universes (see Ed's previous story) and so it is fitting that this reaction seemed to come straight out of another dimension. You can read the best defence of Ed at stilldrinking.org.
Anyway, here is my little cartoon to celebrate Ed's unfortunate sojourn into the gendered net. So, if your cursor looks like this ♂, don't hit the backlash key \\\\\\\\\\ ....
Celebrate His 'n' Hers shopping experiences: buy this image on a SHOPPING BAG! It also makes an ideal mousepad for the politically incorrect man in your life. See all products with this image.
