Monday, January 27, 2003 Mondays Bite. And that is all I wil say on that subject... I'm far too frustrated to write the detailed entry that I had planed and had been working on, so i will give the distilled version here: War is hell, but it is a damn good dramatic device, and I think men are genetically pre-disposed to combat. And that the militaries of the world thought history have just exploited this aspect of the male genetic code. I will pose a question to you though: What, if any, are the benefits of war-games (be it old-school table top, Computer RTS, or Civil War reenactments), combat sports (think fencing, boxing, etc) and the glorification and hero-worship of military personnel? Speaking of war... The History Channel isn't ALL about war and combat. I saw 2 very interesting parts of a 4 part show last night called "Sex in the 20th Century." The two episodes that I caught covered turn of the century America to the red-scare era 50s. Really a well done series discussing the place of sex in the popular culture of the times. It could have spent a little more time on the development of queer-culture, but maybe it fill focus more on that in the second half of the series. So set your TiVos. Defiantly worth a watch! posted by JMV | 1/27/2003 03:51:00 PM | |
