Superpowers

Further to our recent conversations about Rachida Dati, this morning I spotted this cartoon by Mike Moreu from earlier in the month.


Found at Moreu's gallery on Stuff.

This struck me as kind of sexist, actually.

Why so Hugh?

That woman looks startlingly like me.

The man is portrayed as rational and calm, the woman as, well, pyschotically violent and irrational.

I think many women can probably identify with having moments like the one portrayed in the picture. I didn't think she came across as violent, just incredibly frustrated and overloaded.

Well, I guess sometimes sexism is in the eye of the beholder.
