It's the sort of thing that makes it hard for me to imagine any world in which women, at least as a group, don't always lose.

Apropos of sexism but not of colleges, I'm guessing you're at least passingly aware of Katy Perry's "I Kissed A Girl (and I liked it)"?

If not, the quick summary is "I like boys really, but I wanted to try kissing a girl, but it doesn't mean anything really, and now let me make a video with girls in lingerie having a pillow fight!" The premise is potentially touching, but the presentation is nauseating.

Here's a cover of the same damn song that almost makes me cry. It's lovely. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skAMmX-D41Q

Have you heard "I Didn't Just Kiss Her"...? I just saw this today. There's a video embed here:
