Let me start out by introducing Taylor Swift. She is a rising country star, not even a legal adult yet, with a bit of a pop flavoring, a redneck Miley Cyrus, as if it could get any more redneck.

I hate her so much.

Her songs, in my opinion, represent the basest of female sexual tendencies. Her first song "Love Story," while committing the philistine error of committing her relationship favorably to Romeo and Juliet, can be summed up as "I am in a mildly unpleasant home-life, so I am going to sit on my hands and wait for sweety-poo to come and rescue me." For her second, which name escapes me (it doesn't deserve it, anyway,) the basic message is "that girl you're with has her own opinions that differ from yours, so dump her for my bland ass, because she's a whore." These are ideas I, or any other male worth having, will not appreciate having in his mate.

Anyway, I was listening to the second song on the radio, because I don't channel surf, when something struck me. This girl who glorifies female subservience is a rising star. Plus, there has been a hit movie released that has been criticized--quietly, as critics valued their lives--for having a shallow passive teenage girl as a lead character, and have her continually defer to a dashing member of a race meant to symbolize ultimate selfishness. Go on, guess the title, and you'll get a free garlic wreathe.

I find this cultural trend disturbing, and I'm not one hide from falling sky. The coming generation of women is glorifying passiveness and subjugation to the worst of suitors, and being happy about it, even if your mate is a damned monster who feeds on your species. What the hell, ladies? We went through decades of bra-burning and castration just to get a fairer sex that is even mousier than before?
