Colbert Microwaves Underwear In Stand Against Women (VIDEO)

Colbert stood up for all men last night, waging war against the opposite sex, whose dominance of the world seems to be growing by the day. What incited this rage? Colbert came across studies that show lesbian couples raise better behaved children (though he argued that's actually a detriment to society). But what really set him off was an article in The Atlantic titled "The End Of Men." So in a symbolic protest, he attempted to burn his boxers. But with no fire allowed in the building, the microwave would have to do.

Stephen, I like men (except for my ex's.)

My phone won't let me see your clip but as soon as I get to the library I'll watch it.

I finally saw the clip. Relax Stephen.
I took a Psycholgy of Gender class at University of Oregon and learned that studies confirm that men are better at higher math and science than women. No doubt.
Also better at hosting talk shows.

this is really great. and funny. and a great way to get recognition for this shift. what i want to know - is it really happening and how does it play out? i feel the power dynamics in corporations do not allow for women to maximize their potential. has that suddenly changed? and for the entrepreneurial, how are women getting ahead? men still get more money for start ups and there is still the old boys network. how is this changing in reality? id like examples. guess i should go read the article but i know there's got to me business case studies that support this as well.

Well, I guess there is no reason to keep permitting discrimination in selective service.
Time for the ladies to register for the draft.

So being a pig is out of fashion so when is Man bashing going to die off. I am getting a little tired of double standards.

When man bashing has existed as long as woman bashing has in our culture. I figure you have about 2000 more years of it, more or less. Enjoy!

Men cannot go away. Who would...take out the trash? Who would...say 'Yes Dear?' Who would change the flat tires of the world and play football for us, and roll our joints?

Men have had their chance. Let women run the country for a while. They could not do worse. Not faux feminists though, such as Palin.

If there were no men, we women would have noone to nag, or get to take out the garbage. See, I've named 2 uses already!

Yeah, but we also GET Monty Python, the Three Stooges, and the criticality of protecting our planet's water, air purity, and alcohol supply. Oh yeah, and why Billy has to go to public school, because we NEED Sunday Ticket. On HD. We're Men. We Get It!

I know you're not suggesting women don't GET Monty Python. I won't even get into the rest of it.

Actually, there are studies of just the opposite on Slate.com. Colbert is no longer a parody. The parody has become the reality.
