Interesting comments.
I love Rand, not particularly as a source of anything anti-male, but more from knowing her background and the fact that she is, like or dislike the philosophy, a very articulate and intelligent writer with the ability to get her point (albeit on occasion long-winded) across to readers spanning many ages and socio-economic backgrounds.
How do you feel about Tolkien?
