My wife is severely PO'd at Vance for the 'Childless Cat Lady' comment. I confess I don't really understand how this comment evoked such ire. She tried several times to come up with a male version of an insult that would be on parr with this one and I was "meh" for all of them. As a committed follower of nerd culture, would Vance have been better off to use the term "Vogon". Vogons: "I've just had an unhappy love affair and see no reason for you to be happy or would you like me to read some poetry?".
If I could just have one person explain what is offensive about his comments but I’ve yet to hear any explanation that isn’t coming from a cat lady or a cat lady’s white night.
I am offended. I am married with a child and do not have a cat. Most of the comments here are silly ad hominem attacks. The fact is, it is neither polite nor vice-presidential to attack people on such silly grounds. What about single men or childless men who have dogs? Should they be condemned too?

Your wife is upset? Why?

Your opinion is automatically discounted for use of the MRA term “white knight.”
