Updated: 18 Nov 2013

In this episode we examine the Ms. Male Character trope and briefly discuss a related pattern called the Smurfette Principle.

Ms. Male Characters are defined primarily by their relationship to their male counterparts via visual properties, narrative connection or occasionally through promotional materials.

Where are all the women? A new study of women serving elected office in Utah shows that, even though Utah is one of the few states with a female Speaker of the House, the number of women serving in the state Legislature has actually declined over the past decade and only 12 of 161 mayors are women. On Friday at 12:15 p.m., former Salt Lake City mayor Deedee Corradini, former North Salt Lake mayor pro tem Lisa Watts Baskin and Utah Valley University researcher Candace Backus join Jennifer Napier-Pearce to talk about what's keeping women out of political races and how to change that. http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/news/57372728-78/women-utah-talk-lake.html.csp

Harassing Women in Saudi Arabia التحرش في السعودية

Worse than animals! Men harassing a group of women in a mall parking lot in the eastern city of Dhahran. The men heckle and follow the women, one of whom responds by kicking a man who grabbed her. That's show how backward the customs and traditions of these Saudi and the oil rich gulf Arabs they will never prosper intellectually. This is the same Saudi and Qatar that is inciting revolution in other Arab countries, arming rebels and sponsoring of Aljazeera and Alarabiya. Media freedom my foot! As long as it's happening somewhere else its fine with them, but don't mention their tin pot despot .. NO! They are beyond reproach! And after all this, the Emir of Qatar, the Saudi King and his 'Intelligence' chief Bandar bin Sultan had the guts to pretend spreading democracy in Syria, Egypt and the Arab world?. Who are they kidding? themselves? Ruling families in Arab gulf (specially the Al-Saud and Al-Thni of Qatar) must be removed, they are "unreformable" . We all agree again. These freaks are Wahabbis imported by the Brits and are repressing their people and imposed a family rule. and the U.S. has double standards for its own "bastards".
