Burn your bra and grab a copy of The Feminine Mystique, because we\u2019re venturing into the world of One and a Half Men. Ann and Christy, along with Very Special Guest Mansplainer Bob Stein, are here to take on TBTL\u2019s occasional treatment of lady issues. We catch up with what\u2019s been happening in Bob\u2019s life since the last time he joined us on LRB (Episode #91: Casserole Playing), consider how we feel about the One and a Half Men segment in general, and then dig into some clips. Are men the cause of most of women\u2019s problems? When does persistence become harassment? Is it ever okay to accuse a woman of being emotional? (Hint: NO.) We evaluate the guys\u2019 approaches and attitudes towards thorny problems that they\u2019re completely unqualified to discuss, cheer on their feminist sympathies, and roll our eyes as needed. Plus, we share our own stories of getting emotional in the workplace and come up with an early contender for Song of the Summer. Remember, guys: don\u2019t email Andrew until we say it\u2019s time! This show contains clips from the following TBTL episodes: 4/3/12 (lady television shows, Lee Aronsohn, sexism, On Our Media); 5/8/12 (going without makeup, AnnaLynne McCord, vanity); 4/7/14 (Dianne Feinstein, getting emotional, gendered insults, crying at work); 3/12/15 (persistence and consent, dating, YouTube, Doe Eyes, imperfect messenger, male entitlement).
