Fella sent me the link to this
radical feminist criticism of Firefly. If you've got a few minutes, go read it. I'm interested in what my intelligent, feminist (either explicitly or otherwise), Whedon-loving friends list has to say about this. I only made it about six paragraphs in before I was on the phone animatedly discussing it with fella - I don't want to say much more than that before y'all get a chance to form your own opinions.
