Well, I did take a bus to Hebden the other day...
This sort of thing really gets to me. We have constructed an idea of what a woman or a man is. It is almost entirely culturally defined. The biological imperatives account for so little of it, which is why it has been so subject to change across time and indeed differs greatly from one culture and geographical area to the next. I can totally understand someone not liking Coulter. I even get that from certain angles she looks a little masculine. But from other angles, she just looks statuesque.
Part of this is a defence of a woman's right to define her own femininity; and part of it comes from my suspicion that Radar has a very traditional (and therefore rather paternalistic) view of what femininity is.
